You want to know why? Because compared to it's competition, that bike SUCKS. It's expensive, it's heavy, it's carb'd, and they didn't market them at all. Compare it (new) to an FZ6 or SV650 or hell even a Bandit 600 and the Hornet blows. Great bike to ride, probably, but Honda didn't even bother to look at it's competition, and then when it failed they said "oh, it's because america doesn't like naked bikes."
Right. Sure. Honda, :finger:
