In 2002, Honda brought back the CB900F – they called it the Hornet in Europe and the 919 in the US. It was a modern take on the UJM with upright ergonomics, standard bodywork, and a detuned but enlarged inline-four engine from the CBR900RR.
In their first ride review, Sport Rider said: “As a streetfighter…the 919 is stunning. It makes the daily commute fun, and willingly partakes in any antics you may occasionally perform. That Honda chose to give the bike a decidedly sporting bent only endears it to us further, meaning this is one bike that we’ll have to keep for a while.”
This example is VIN: JH2SC48122M000119. The seller is the second owner, he acquired it in March 2025 from a private party via an Iconic Motorbikes Auction.
The odometer shows 13,669 miles.
