Eye-catching, chunky look

confident acceleration

relaxed geometry

powerful brakes

Limited freedom of movement for the legs.

Honda CB750 Hornet 2025

Powerful and cultivated two-cylinder engine with a wide usable torque curve

Good ergonomics and confidence-inspiring riding position

Extensive standard equipment including TFT display, riding modes, traction control

Low fuel consumption and easy to maintain
