Honda CB750 Hornet sound & quick review [RAW Onboard]

[@swamizms]

I love that you include audio of riding the bikes at lower speeds around town, too. I rarely get to ride at higher speeds, so hearing the full range the engine is exactly what I came for! Cheers

[@Schaaf]

Thanks for letting me know!

Sadly, yes because a large portion of riders here in the US live in california so they all have to california emissions compliant. Super lame.

[@ominona7479]

in brazil people are hysterical because it's not four cylinders. the vast majority are not even able to buy a used 125, but they are revolting because they can no longer make the bikes scream at the rev limit... 🤦‍♂️

[@brunofernandes1426]

Infelizmente o poder de compra aqui no Brasil é minúsculo, é deprimente, o jogo da vida para os brasileiros só pode ser jogado no nível hard, então mais respeito na forma de falar...Mas realmente não entendo essa besteira de muitos acharem que moto boa é só quatro cilindros, a qualidade de uma moto não tem nada a ver com o número de cilindros ou ronco emitido pelo escapamento, mas como fazer a massa entender isso? Kkk Hoje tenho uma Z900, que é uma das poucas 4 cilindros que entrega a potência de uma maneira capaz de satisfazer o meu estilo de pilotagem, por entregar torque e potência em rotações bem mais baixas que a maioria das 4 cilindros em linha, mas prefiro mesmo a entrega de torque absurda em baixas e médias rotações das 2 cilindros!

It actually bothered me a lot too..For me a Honda CB750 is legendary! Thinks it SHOULD have 4 cyl but it doesn't ...Many are divided on this question but I think 4 cyl sounds better and to me the sound of a motorbike is a very important detail.

[@magikdethmonkey]

Try riding one, I absolutely love mine. It's not 4 cylinders but it sounds incredible with a decent exhaust on and is a lot of fun to ride.​@@Swemist

I had a test ride on a white & red one yesterday. As soon as I finished the test ride I went into the dealership & ordered one in that colour. I added the sports pack & the style pack. Both needed to make the bike look smart. For all the people watching KZbin videos on this bike & deciding against it for its looks alone please go ride one. I like it alot. Great price great speed great fun bike

New rider here. I tried it a few days ago and it surprised how good it rode and how hard it pulled. I really really until you get of the bike and it’s just meh and dull looking.

To be fair, apart from the tuono 660, none of these beginner motorcycles look good at all. Z650, mt07, hornet 750.... They all look bland. I guess the suzuki 8s looks a bit better but even so. Not many naked bikes look the part nowadays.

[@florme6494]

That was fantastic, exactly what I was looking for. Pure sound, the text was a bonus. This bike truly is a wolf in sheep clothing. I really like that about it. It looks harmless, but is an absolute beast. I also like how tiny the overall dimensions are. Even the rear tyre tells you it’s a slow bike. But of course, the truth is it’s fast and nimble. I think this bike will become a cult hero just like its predecessor. That display with all the adjustment from visual to electronics is ridiculous too. You’d almost want it in rain mode during the week to save the tyres. I could imagine with all that power with the narrow tyres they won’t last long. I could imagine it’d be amazing for lane splitting. Narrow, but also doesn’t run hot. The one thing from all the reviews that I haven’t got my head around, if you can help explain it? The suspension I hear is too stiff in town over the bad roads, yet not firm enough for the twisty roads. I’m starting to think it’s just a playful suspension setup?

[@Schaaf]

Mostly it's just cheap, unfortunately. Suzuki with their 8S shows how you can achieve a better compromise between comfort and stability in this price range. But since the engine of the Hornet is much more exciting I'd also take the Honda and simply invest a few hundred euros in aftermarket suspension parts. Then it's almost perfect for its relatively low price!

[@pvmotorsport46]

That is a road on top of Karlobag leading to Baske Ostarije, great twisties and good grip, from Karlobag to Zadar city is our countries best road in my opinion. Greetings from Croatia ✌

[@moreliquorinmycoffee]

I find it to be very exciting on the spec sheet and the engine and the sound and the value for money, I think for everything it offers I find it to be one of the most appealing bikes available right now, it's just that it doesn't look all that special you know. They were definitely Italy onto something with the headlight, it looks good, but the bike could be more handsome if a little beefier, and with a better looking rear end. But at the price you can't ask for everything I suppose

[@bfactor]

MT07 destroyer with that top end. Honda better bring these to the US. I'm ready to buy one.

[@Schaaf]

[@CROtourer]

I don’t expect you to know this, but at 14:43 you passed next to the roadside and seaside caffe bar called “Carlito’s” in the town of Karlobag. Over the years and through some exceptional circumstances, that place has spontaneously become one of the sacred, moto sanctuaries in Croatia. It’s one of the most talked places in the Croatia’s motorcycling community. Many riders from all parts of the country, including myself, sit on their machines and ride to that place, have coffee there enjoying the view and the seaside vibe and then hop on their bikes and ride 50, 100 or few hundred kilometers back to their places, depending on where they live. In my case it’s 200 km from Split. I do it dozens of times a year. 😅

Does blurring the speedo actually do anything? I mean surely if someone wanted to they could prove you were over the speed limit by the fact that you're still going full throttle when the screen gets blurred.

The way they (the police) would actually do it, is they would calculate his speed based on the time it takes to reach two different points in the video. I know the police where I'm from have used this very technique to fine and/or arrest people who posted videos on KZbin of them speeding, with the speedo blurred or out of frame.

Depends on the usage

[@MauroRubioGiletta]

Is that a chest setup?

[@flowy979]

should i get this bike or a used f800r?

[@Schaaf]

Whatever feels better to you

[@M1KeHD]

Im going for my first MC, which would you choose, this hornet or a z900. Im thinking about both fun riding like this and some longer trips. Youre really skilled.

[@Schaaf]

Both are very User friendly. Still I'd start with something less powerful

[@M1KeHD]

@@Schaaf if you had to choose one. I can get a 2021 z900 for the same price as a Hornet. I have drove MX since kid so I have some experince with bikes and also im kinda careful as a person. Also maybe drive in "Rain mode" to start?

[@JayGee6996]

@@M1KeHD a parallel twin would be better as a starter bike as you’ll be able to enjoy slower speeds as you can stay in lower revs where there’s still power, with the z900 you’ll be high up in the revs before it kicks in which can encourage you to ride too fast

What a nice riding as always! Can you tell me where exactly was it in Croatia? I am planning to go to Croatia in summer and rent a bike to do a bit of riding, any advice could be appreciated 😌👍

The road is just above the town of Karlobag a very popular town to go to by bike on the coastal magistrala road.

[@riashonkers1213]

Who's the market for this bike if there's the neo CB650?

[@Schaaf]

everyone who wants to accelerate decently from the bottom of the rev counter lol
