2026 Honda Cb500 Hornet Eclutch Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Honda's naked motorcycle platform, the 2026 Honda Cb500 Hornet Eclutch utilizes a 471 cc engine layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 43 Nm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual gearbox and o-ring-sealed chain; 15t / 41t final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0mm x 66.8mm with a 10.7:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Cb500 Hornet Eclutch measures 414 kg (913 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 31 mm (1.2 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 55 mm (2.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.5-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 129 km (80 miles) between fill-ups.
