FEATURED 2026 Honda CB750 Hornet E-Clutch - HN9995

Stings harder than ever

2026 Honda CB750 Hornet E-Clutch – Stings Harder Than Ever!

More freedom. More performance. Less work at the clutch lever. Welcome to the hive!

Meet the 2026 Honda CB750 Hornet E-Clutch, a middleweight naked sportbike that brings together exciting performance, aggressive streetfighter styling, and Honda's innovative E-Clutch technology. Whether you're an experienced rider looking for your next performance motorcycle or someone ready to enjoy the excitement of a larger street bike with easier clutch operation, the Hornet offers an entirely new way to ride.

The big news for 2026 is Honda E-Clutch. Shift up or down using the foot-operated shift pedal without pulling the clutch lever or backing off the throttle. Starting from a stop and coming to a complete stop are easier, too, with the system managing clutch engagement to help prevent stalling. Prefer the traditional riding experience? The clutch lever is still there whenever you want it.

It's the best of both worlds, and it's one of the most exciting features to arrive on Honda's middleweight motorcycles.

755cc Parallel-Twin Engine – Performance That Doesn't Hold Back

At the heart of the 2026 Honda CB750 Hornet is a powerful 755cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin four-stroke engine featuring Honda's Unicam® SOHC four-valve-per-cylinder design.

Designed to deliver strong, accessible power throughout the RPM range, this engine makes the Hornet exciting on winding roads while remaining enjoyable for everyday riding.

Features include:

755cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine

Unicam® SOHC four-valve-per-cylinder design

Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI)

46mm throttle body

Six-speed manual transmission with Honda E-Clutch

Assist/slipper clutch

Chain final drive

The narrow parallel-twin engine configuration also helps create a compact motorcycle with an exciting power delivery and responsive handling.

Honda E-Clutch – A Whole New Way to Shift

The biggest highlight of the 2026 CB750 Hornet is Honda's exclusive E-Clutch technology.

Imagine accelerating through the gears without ever reaching for the clutch lever. That's exactly what Honda E-Clutch makes possible.

The system electronically manages clutch engagement, allowing you to shift up and down using the shift pedal alone. It also handles clutch operation when starting from a stop or coming to a stop, helping eliminate the worry of stalling.

Why riders will love Honda E-Clutch:

Clutchless Upshifts: Shift through the gears without touching the clutch lever.

Clutchless Downshifts: Enjoy smooth downshifts with electronic throttle blipping and engine-speed matching.

Easier Stops and Starts: The system manages clutch engagement when pulling away and coming to a stop.

No More Stalling Worries: Electronic clutch management helps prevent accidental stalling.

Traditional Clutch Control: The clutch lever remains fully functional whenever you prefer to operate the clutch yourself.

Experienced sportbike riders will appreciate the quick, smooth gear changes, while riders newer to larger motorcycles will appreciate how much easier clutch operation becomes.

Honda E-Clutch doesn't take away the traditional motorcycle experience. It simply gives you another way to enjoy it.

Streetfighter Styling and Responsive Handling

The CB750 Hornet looks every bit as aggressive as it rides. Its sharp bodywork, distinctive LED projector headlight, sculpted fuel tank, and minimalist tail section give it unmistakable naked sportbike styling.

Underneath the aggressive exterior is a lightweight steel diamond frame designed to provide a great balance of rigidity, responsiveness, and handling.

Suspension highlights include:

41mm inverted Showa® SFF-BP front fork

Pro-Link® rear suspension

Seven-stage rear preload adjustment

Lightweight aluminum swingarm

17-inch front and rear wheels

The Hornet also features dual 296mm front brake discs with radial-mounted Nissin four-piston calipers and a 240mm rear disc for confident stopping power.

With a 31.3-inch seat height and approximately 432-pound curb weight, the CB750 Hornet offers a compact, approachable package for riders looking for an exciting middleweight street motorcycle.

Five Riding Modes and Modern Honda Technology

The 2026 Honda CB750 Hornet gives riders additional control over how their motorcycle responds to different road conditions and riding styles.

Honda's Throttle-by-Wire system works with five selectable riding modes:

Sport: More aggressive engine power delivery with reduced electronic intervention.

Standard: A balanced setting for everyday riding.

Rain: Softer power delivery and increased traction-control intervention.

User 1 and User 2: Customizable settings that let you adjust the motorcycle to your preferences.

Additional technology includes Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) with integrated Wheelie Control, adjustable engine braking, and three levels of engine power delivery.

The five-inch full-color TFT instrument display keeps important riding information easy to see, including speed, engine RPM, fuel level, gear position, and trip information. Honda RoadSync smartphone connectivity adds another layer of convenience.
