The Honda CB750 Hornet is a motorcycle from Honda. It is currently on sale. With a 755 cc engine it sits in the middleweight 450–800 cc class.
Power comes from a 755 cc twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 90.5 bhp at 9,500 rpm and 75 Nm of torque at 7,250 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (87 mm x 63.5 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 480 PS per tonne; by that measure, its performance is at superbike level and rewards an experienced rider. It has electric start.
It has a 6-speed manual gearbox with a 1-down, 5-up shift pattern, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel.
Suspension is by 41mm inverted showa telescopic fork at the front and Pro-Link® Single-Shock; 5.1-inch travel at the rear. Braking is by a 296 mm disc at the front and a 240 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 120/70 - 17 at the front and 160/60 - 17 at the rear.
The seat is 795 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 191 kg ready to ride, which is on the heavy side, so moving it by hand takes some effort. The wheelbase is 1,420 mm. It carries 15 L of fuel.
Equipment includes 5 " TFT Display with Brightness Control, an LED projector headlamp, call and SMS alerts, distance-to-empty readout, gear position indicator, service due indicator, shift light and low fuel indicator. Safety equipment includes engine kill switch, side-stand engine cut-off, side-stand warning, hazard light switch and traction control. It has four riding modes: Sport, Standard, Rain and and User.
