Honda has refreshed its popular CB750 Hornet for the 2027 model year, adding four new colour combinations to its aggressive streetfighter styling. 

The rest of the package carries over unchanged, which keeps one of the middleweight class's most capable naked bikes right where it needs to be.

Four New Colours For 2027 

The updated range introduces four fresh options across both the standard bike and the Honda E-Clutch version. 

Customers can now choose Gunmetal Black Metallic with Mat Ballistic Black Metallic, or Mat Beta Silver Metallic paired with Iridium Gray Metallic. 

Two more combinations complete the line-up: Glint Wave Blue Metallic with Mat Ballistic Black Metallic, and a bold Grand Prix Red teamed with Gunmetal Black Metallic.

Engine And Performance 

Beneath the new paintwork, the 2027 Honda CB750 Hornet keeps the 755cc parallel twin that has earned it such a strong following. 

It produces 67.5kW and 75Nm, driving a package that weighs just 192kg (196kg with E-Clutch) for a power-to-weight ratio that stays ahead of much of its class. 

The eight-valve Unicam engine draws on Honda's competition experience, so it delivers useful mid-range as well as a lively top end. 

That makes the Hornet as easy-going around town as it is entertaining on your favourite stretch of road. 

Rider Technology And Equipment 

Throttle By Wire gives riders five riding modes, plus adjustable Honda Selectable Torque Control with integrated Wheelie Control. 

Three levels of engine power and engine braking let you tailor the bike to conditions and confidence. 

Full Showa suspension, dual radial-mount four-piston front calipers and a five-inch TFT screen with Honda RoadSync smartphone connectivity round out the specification. 

An A2 licence option keeps the Hornet within reach of newer riders looking to move up. 

The Honda E-Clutch Explained 

First offered in 2026, the optional Honda E-Clutch remains one of the bike's standout features. 

The system lets you pull away, stop and change gear without touching the clutch lever, delivering shifts that are faster and smoother than a conventional quickshifter. 

You can still use the clutch lever whenever you prefer, so nothing is lost for riders who enjoy the traditional feel.
