The Honda CB750 Hornet is the Japanese brand’s latest naked middleweight motorcycle, and it is likely to be launched in India by the end of 2024. We expect it to be priced at around Rs. 11 lakh to Rs. 11.5 lakh.The Honda CB750 Hornet features a steel diamond frame, with 41 mm Showa Separate Function Big Piston upside down forks (non-adjustable) while rear monoshock gets five-step adjustable preload.

The bike gets a new 755 cc, 270-degree parallel-twin engine that produces a claimed 90.6 bhp at 9,500 rpm and 75 Nm of peak torque at 7,250 rpm. The new engine has been designed to offer accessible power across the rev range, and the parallel-twin’s crank and uneven firing order are intended to create a V-twin feel with strong mid-range grunt.

The engine is mounted in a rigid steel diamond frame, and overall kerb weight is expected to be around 190 kg, with 17-inch wheels sporting tubeless rubber, with a 120-section front tyre and 160-section rear tyre. Suspension is handled by 41 mm Showa Separate Function Big Piston upside down forks and a rear shock with five-step adjustable preload. Braking duties are handled by dual 296 mm front discs with four-piston radial Nissin calipers.

The bike uses minimalistic body panels, and the overall design looks sharp nevertheless, and in keeping with the naked street design, the new Hornet looks compact and accessible with its 795 mm seat height. The bike uses LED lighting throughout with self-cancelling turn indicators with 15.2 litres fuel tank capacity.

The new Honda Hornet also gets a host of electronic riding aids, along with optional quickshifter and auto blipper. Standard features include three riding modes, Rain, Standard and Sport, as well as three-stage engine braking and traction control. There’s also wheelie control offered as standard. A fully customisable User mode also allows the traction control system (called Honda Selectable Torque System) to be switched off, and all the features can be accessed via the 5-inch full-colour TFT screen, which also features smartphone connectivity along with Honda Smartphone Voice Control system.
