2026 Honda CB750 Hornet E-Clutch
Performance Guide
Engine character & real-world pull
The CB750 Hornet E-Clutch is powered by a 755cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin four-stroke with a 270-degree-phase crank and a gear-driven counterbalancer. In plain terms: it’s built to feel lively and engaging while staying smooth enough for everyday riding.
Honda’s Unicam® SOHC valvetrain (four valves per cylinder) and PGM-FI fuel injection with a 46mm throttle body help deliver crisp response. The vortex air intake and two-into-one exhaust support strong midrange—ideal for quick passes on surface streets and confident acceleration when merging onto the freeway.
At-a-glance performance specs
Honda E-Clutch: performance you can use every day
This model’s Honda E-Clutch pairs with a six-speed manual to reduce the workload in stop-and-go traffic while keeping the engaging feel of a standard gearbox. For riders in the San Diego area, that can mean smoother starts from lights, easier low-speed maneuvering, and less fatigue on longer rides.
If you’re comparing how the E-Clutch integrates with other rider aids, the Features & Technology page breaks down the electronics and rider interface.
Throttle-by-wire & ride modes
With throttle by wire and five ride modes, the CB750 Hornet E-Clutch can be tailored to your day—whether you want a calm, predictable response for commuting or a sharper feel for spirited rides.
Add Honda Selectable Torque Control for extra confidence when traction is less than perfect. It’s a performance advantage you’ll appreciate on cool mornings, coastal humidity, or any time road conditions change.
Braking performance & control
Stopping power is handled by dual 296mm front discs with radial-mounted four-piston calipers, plus a 240mm rear disc. ABS is included for both ends, helping you stay composed during hard braking and emergency stops.
For riders who prioritize confidence on busy streets, this setup supports strong feel at the lever while adding a layer of control when traction is unpredictable.
