The CB750 HORNET naked sports bike is built around a new tubular steel diamond frame that offers precise control thanks to an upright riding position and an unladen weight of 190 kg. With compact dimensions, slim proportions, a tapered tail and sharp lines, the bike expresses its sporty orientation, emphasised by the metallic red frame. Another striking design feature is the eponymous tank, inspired by the contour of a hornet’s wing. “The CB750 HORNET impresses with its agile handling and a purist, slightly aggressive appearance that catches the eye,” said the jury.
