The legendary Hornet gets a bold new look with this special Jun Watanabe edition, featuring a playful black-spotted white body, vivid pink tires, and purple accents on the chassis, bumper, and side guards. White damper springs add a sleek touch, while pink 4mm wheel nuts bring in extra flair to complete the eye-catching design.
Under the hood, the Hornet remains a rugged off-road performer. It’s built around a durable ABS resin box-type frame, with a front swing axle and rear rolling rigid suspension setup. Oil-filled rear dampers handle rough terrain with ease, and the sealed gearbox protects internal components from dirt and debris. A differential gear inside ensures smooth cornering, even at speed.
Three-piece wheels are used front and rear, paired with grooved front and pin spike rear tires for excellent grip. A set of black tires is also included for a more classic look. Combining iconic performance with bold, artistic styling, this version of the Hornet is both a collector's piece and a capable off-road machine.
