Q. How comfortable will be hornet 2.0 for a beginner upgrading from scooter? Is it comfortable for a pillion sitting sidewise ?

Honda Hornet 2.0 is effectively a great bike to upgrade to, if you're looking for mileage, and great mileage and not too much power. The ride is mostly comfortable, too. However, the provided saree-gurad does not have a foot-platform. So sitting sideways, for the pillion, would be difficult. But, it does have a s***w socket (under the plastic covering) to get aftermarket accessories.

The comfort of the bike could be only judged by taking a test ride. So we would suggest you to visit the nearest dealership and take a test ride in order to check the performance, comfort, and compatibility.
