Positioned in Honda's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2023 Honda CB750 Hornet pairs a 755 cc (46.1 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 89.9 HP (65.6 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 74 Nm (54.6 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 119.1 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,500 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 CB750 Hornet measures 190 kg (419 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.47 HP/kg (2.11 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. The 15.2-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.35 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 349 km (217 miles) between fill-ups.
