Character and use of the Hornet 750
The streetfighter design with twin LED headlights meets a light chassis designed for sporty riding. According to Honda, the seat height is 795 mm, the tank holds 15.2 litres and top speed is 205 km/h.
This makes the model suitable for everyday riding as well as for winding country roads. The lighting is all-LED, and the indicators switch off automatically.
Engine with 270-degree crankshaft and electronics
The inline twin works with a crankshaft offset by 270 degrees and produces 67.5 kW at 9500 rpm. Maximum torque of 75 Nm is reached at 7250 rpm, and a six-speed gearbox takes care of shifting.
Throttle by Wire enables the riding modes Sport, Standard and Rain as well as a user mode in which you adjust engine power, engine braking, the HSTC traction control and the Wheelie Control. A 5-inch colour TFT display with Honda RoadSync integrates your smartphone for navigation and music.
The chassis comprises a steel tube diamond frame, a 41 mm Showa SFF-BP fork of upside-down design at the front and a Pro-Link shock at the rear. Four-piston calipers brake the front wheel.
Honda E-Clutch and variant up to 35 kW
From the 2026 model year, the Honda CB750 Hornet is also listed with Honda E-Clutch. The system handles pulling away, gear changes and stopping without the clutch lever, and you only operate the gear lever. If you want to use the clutch yourself, the lever remains available.
Each of the two versions is available with full power for category A and also as a variant up to 35 kW for holders of a category A restricted driving licence, which corresponds to A2 in the EU. According to Honda, the full power can be restored later.
Who is the Hornet 750 for?
The Hornet 750 is suitable for riders looking for a sporty naked bike with a twin-cylinder engine and modern electronics. If you start out with category A restricted, you can later switch to full power with the same Hornet.
If you often pull away and change gear in city traffic, you benefit from the Honda E-Clutch. For sporty rides, Honda offers an adjustable quickshifter in the Sport pack as a motorcycle accessory.
