Honda CB750 Hornet Specifications: Engine, Dimensions & Features
The Honda CB750 Hornet is powered by a 755cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that produces 90.5 bhp at 9,500 rpm and 75 Nm of torque at 7,250 rpm. It uses a SOHC design with 8 valves and Honda's Unicam technology, paired with a 6-speed gearbox and an assist and slipper clutch as standard. The fuel injection system ensures crisp throttle response across all riding modes.
Suspension is handled by a 41mm Showa SFF-BP (Separate Function Big Piston) inverted fork at the front with 130mm of travel, and a Pro-Link monoshock at the rear with 150mm of wheel travel. These are the same high-spec Showa units found on bikes costing considerably more. Braking comes from twin 296mm discs up front with 4-piston calipers, and a single 240mm disc at the rear, backed by dual-channel ABS as standard.
The CB750 Hornet rides on 17-inch alloy wheels shod with 120/70 section rubber at the front and a wider 160/60 section at the rear. Kerb weight is 191 kg with a 15.2-litre fuel tank. Seat height is 795mm - manageable for riders 5'6" and above, though shorter riders may need to tiptoe.
The electronic package is comprehensive: Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), three-level wheelie control, four riding modes (Sport, Standard, Rain and a customisable User mode), emergency stop signal, and illuminated switchgear. A 5-inch full-colour TFT instrument cluster connects via Bluetooth to Honda's RoadSync app, enabling turn-by-turn navigation, call alerts, and music control through the cluster. The ARAI certified mileage is 23.25 kmpl, while real-world highway returns of 28-31 kmpl have been consistently reported by owners.

Measured against the competition, the CB750 Hornet's spec sheet holds up well. The Triumph Trident 660 is lighter but offers less power. The Kawasaki Z650 is more affordable but gives up significant electronics. What makes the CB750 Hornet stand out is that the premium hardware - Showa SFF-BP forks, full TFT with connectivity, four riding modes with wheelie control - comes without the premium price. For the Indian buyer, the ARAI mileage of 23.25 kmpl and a 15.2-litre tank translates to roughly 350 km of real-world range per fill-up. The 795mm seat height is on the moderate side for the segment, and the 191 kg kerb weight is competitive.
