At the heart of the 2001 Honda CB 750 Sevenfifty naked motorcycle, Honda pairs a 747 cc (45.6 cu in) in-line four, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 72 HP (52.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 61 Nm (45 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 96.4 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the CB 750 Sevenfifty measures 215 kg (474 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.33 HP/kg (2.99 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,495 mm (58.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 202 km/h (126 mph).
