Honda CB750 Hornet 2023

The new Hornet 750 is a really successful naked bike that sets itself above most competitors in the upper entry-level bike class with its wonderfully agile and powerful engine, balanced handling and chassis, comfortable riding position and, last but not least, its extensive electronic equipment. Actually, it comes very close to the middle class, only the boring swingarm and the narrow 160 rear tyre (which, however, helps the handling enormously) do not quite fit into this segment. However, it is hardly more expensive than the entry-level bikes, and instead a few, sometimes even many thousands cheaper than the mid-range. That makes it an unbeatable offer!

All in all, we think the Kawasaki Z 750 is right to wear the R. It is definitely a lot of fun on trackdays. However, if you want to hunt for lap times energetically, you have to invest in the chassis. Primarily to gain lean angle clearance. After that, you could even think about an "RR" in the name abbreviation.
