We need more of these "real World" affordable bikes, especially to attract new riders. Well done Honda ! ! Exotica and over 200 bhp is nice, however, reserved for the more fortunate among is. Which is fine for the lucky minority and I wish them well, but it's great and a brave move from one of the best brands in motorcycling.

@peterwilson8039 Год назад

Speaking for myself I have zero interest in 200 bhp 200 mph, $20,000+ motorcycles. I drive in the real world where I seldom, if ever, go faster than 100 mph. This motorcycle is much more than what I will ever need, or even be likely to use, but that doesn't mean I don't want it. I am inclined though to think that this is a lot for a new rider. I think both Suzuki and Honda could really use scaled-down versions of these new bikes in the 400 cc class, and those could be better choices, (but still plenty exciting) for new riders.

Unless the intent is to take a 200hp sportsbike to the track, which most don't, it's just a massive waste to buy for public roads. And if someone is going to squid on a machine like that they deserve to be behind bars.

Okay that was a good review. Was quite surprised with how good that exhaust sounded as well. As soon as they’re in stock at our local Honda dealership that’s one bike I’d like to give a go at.

The exhaust note is really very nice. It's good to see a manufacturer actively working on making bikes sound nice out of the tail pipe. Triumph, Honda, Aprilia, all seem to quite good at that right now.

@allwheeldrive Год назад

Great review, Toad! Pretty outstanding bike. Like a lot of Honda product, the design is mature and more subtle, which will keep it fresh much longer than the confused mech look on so many bikes in this category. The tires (and gas mileage) should've been mentioned, surely contributing to the overall riding experience. I have two bikes with MR5s in them, and they are incredibly good in all conditions (and last long!). And the narrower rear tire was - so Honda-like - deemed to be a better choice for handling, testosterone inclinations be damned. Good for Honda! When this is benched against its awesome competitors, including the new 8S, it will be interesting to see where it lands. It'll probably come down to what kind of riding YOU like. How awesome is that for us?!

@simonhancocks9094 Год назад

Because of the nature of the launch, you ride flat out and don't get to re-fuel them yourself, we can only go by the dash fir economy. I was around 45mpg by the end of the day. We'll wait for a UK road test for a more comprehensive figure.

@ragerider6283 Год назад

Nice review. Seems decent & the price is great but it looks a bit budget & not very exciting imo. Although I will reserve judgement until I actually see/ride one. Also very interested to see how the GSX8S compares in due course too.

@Wrongwayislost77 Год назад

It doesn't look a patch on the f6 05-06 model. The one flashed up in the graphic sketch. That didn't have a retro vibe, so much as look traditional with a twist. Imo the angularity, especially the headlight, looks cheap. All these modern angular bikes look a bit too anorexic, but when you see an f6 it looks squat, staunch, and perfectly proportion. Ultimately beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it's the biggest turn-off on this bike for me.

@druegeme Год назад

Good review thanks for going a bit deeper on the engine. Seems like a fun bike but not enough to retire my Hornet 900. That I4 is just.. something. and it buzzes like an insect until you take it to 6-7k when the buttery warp drive hits. Maybe next time Honda.

@scratchnsniff7528 Год назад

Same for me with the f6 Hornet, I so seriously wish they'd produced the 900 with the 600's styling for that year. Slightly unround headlight, lovely dash, exhaust that fills that void between fat 180-section rear tyre and seat unit, and Australian forks. It's the quintessential modern classic bike for me, in the looks department, and not some anorexic cheek boned cheap mess they turned the Hornet into in '07. The IL4 was a peach too, no IL2 is ever gonna be a substitute, regardless of crank.

@martymiller4300 Год назад

What about the quirky protrusion in the middle of the oil pan? I’ve noticed that on previous Honda engines but protected by frame rails rather than just exhaust pipes. My Yamaha XSR700 has already kicked up a rock and broken it’s flat oil pan in 18K so it can happen. And if it’s noticeably vulnerable on the Hornet is it a great idea on the TransAlp? I’m thinking not 🤔

@mickleblade Год назад

But you can fit a bash plate to the transalp

@martymiller4300 Год назад

Like my Yamaha, both the Hornet and the TransAlp have no attachment point on the frame lower than the centerline of the engine. By the time you build a bash plate big enough to reach a solid mounting point you’ve got a coal bucket. An ounce of good original design (flat pan) could save several pounds of cure.

Unfortunately at just over 6ft that seat height is too low, and the pegs are way too high for me so the resultant leg bend isn't compatible with my 50 something knees and back. Shame.

@@gut45 Thats absolute bs, nobody calls the Sv650 or z650 Bycicles for having 160 rears.

@h00tybunter Год назад

You will be able to add atleast a 170 also wider tires are worse for handling.

Honda CB750 Hornet or Honda CB650R Which one is better?

@h00tybunter Год назад

Very different bikes, one is an inline 4 and the other is a parallel twin. If you want lower rev power the hornet is better and if you want the high rev pull the 650r is better.

@josephmichael4219 Год назад

You could have rode a CB500F and I wouldn't have noticed😂

@Daniel-dj7fh Год назад

The cooler is bigger, the fairings front of the tank are pulled more forward and the midpipe is different. I also only know this because I ride a cb500f lol, but the older one with the rsu forks :(

@martinrea8548 Год назад

@@Daniel-dj7fh The tank is a bit more angular too. Would you consider moving up to this or you happy with the 500? I have a 500 too and am pretty happy with it. I don't like the sound of the jerky throttle tbh.

@josephmichael4219 Год назад

@@Daniel-dj7fh Yup, but they are too similar in my opinion... should have done like Yamaha, in which you can clearly see the differences between models...

The same can be said for the CB650 and CB1000. But apparently that the 500 and 750 look similar is blasphemy 🤔🙃

I'm sure the bike rides well.... however it is a fugly CB750 TWIN, not a Hornet.

@RikkyTang Год назад

A bit of a wolf in sheeps clothing then (I'm talking about the bike 😁)

@davebielke6319 Год назад

Hate the twin, hate all those electronics, hate the colors, hate the sound...rather buy a 20yr old inline 4 used instead of spending on that new

@visordown Год назад

Crack on and buy a used bike then. We hope you have fun!

Toad… the Hornet or Z900???? Regulars need to know!

@ed.t.hansen6499 Год назад

two thumbs down for less leg room and more crunched legs. Why not keep it like the 500x ! NO point. leave it flexible; adjusttble like Kawasaki does; move the pegs down; and seat up !

@louielewis5209 Год назад

This bike looks to be another one made in Thailand from Honda.... hopefully Suzuki will keep making bikes in Japan.

@visordown Год назад

Nope, this bike is a Japanese-built bike. We've checked in with Honda UK to confirm that and update you. Defo not Thai-built, the new CB750 Hornet is made in Japan.

@visordown Год назад

That is the bike they are gunning for with the new Hornet. Going to be interesting to see what the general public thinks now!

@natanmortenfeld5813 Год назад

They made a mistake, they will lose all the current Hornet riders..not wanting to compete with mt 07 with a costly new product they crippled the Good old 4 cyl Hornet, and left it with only 2 cylinders, that's sad 😭, very soon 4 cylinders bikes will be rare, no Hornet rider will buy a new 2 cyl bike.
