If straight-line speed is your priority, the CB500 Hornet takes the lead. With 13 HP more than the G310R, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the G310R has a clear advantage. Weighing in 24kg less than the CB500 Hornet, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the hornet-cb500 offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
