One of the things that puts me away from all similar design bikes is the insect front look, too sharp lines and the minimalistic fenders. Rain protection is one of the most important things for me that I look in to bikes from first glance. I had CBR 600 F2 long time ago and the bike had huge rear sub fender + very good front one.. The spoilers cover the legs end the knees.. Not a drop on me on wet roads. And before you say that is 'only good weather fun bike' .. They do that even on modern touring or sport touring bikes. It's not fashionable to have huge fenders, isn't it?

A nice presentation of two blokes chatting about bikes. Despite reservations regarding this machine, I can now see that it's a bike that has broad appeal across the biking spectrum. I do need to ask, however, that out of balance, you should, if you haven't already, also review Suzuki's new '8S. I've seen many who've tested the CB, raved about it, then tested the '8S and it's made them think again about the Honda, not because the Suzuki is ultimately better, but because it's made the tester realise the Honda isn't the only kid on the block. Taking subjective issues like colour and looks out of the equation, it would be interesting to hear your views after your recent and comprehensive review of the Honda.👍

Thanks Mark, yes I can only comment on the bikes that people let me have. Honda have been great but unless Suzuki let me do my thing on the 8s then I can only comment on what I have tried. Hopfully I'll be able to get my hands on a 8s sometime. Thanks for your time watching.

Hi chris , that is a tough one. The BMW is a real one off and they do prove very reliable , however it is the type of bike which as much as you play with it ,there will always be something that isnt quite right....The BMW around town can start to feel a bit of a monster to move around by hand etc. MOST importantly !!!!!!those ABS units were a total failure and most of the R range had them chopped out which I would HIGHLY advise if you do get it....for me as much as I like the R850...I would never buy a ABS version for that reason. I would be interested in seeing the link of it so email me the link if you want. The Hornet will last longer, be less trouble and do what it says on the tin with no hassle.. But yes its more money!

The reason I'm interested is that the CB500x & f, are amazingly frugal. If ridden sedately, 80+ mpg is often reported by owners and holding 70 mph on a motorway still returns 70+ mpg. That gives the 500 twin an amazing range. If the 750 can sip fuel in a similar manner, even if the extra 250cc makes it a tad thirstier, I'm getting one. Having the options to really shift or frugally tot up the miles will be a winning formula for me

I’m interested in this bike but I think the engine itself looks really boring. I mean visually, the engine looks very plain. So many other motors have more design and visual appeal but Honda for some reason made the engine look basic in the CB750. Take a look at the engine styling of the CB650R with the bronze accents and the ribs/lines etc all over it. It looks way cooler. And if you want to see a really awesome looking engine, take a look at the Duke 890 R.

@@exeterrider Fair call mate. I haven't ridden either of them and haven't even seen them in person. I'm sure the torquey power delivery of a twin is better for off the bottom grunt but from what I have seen, the CB650R still gets up and goes pretty well too. I don't need the fastest machine on the planet, I am upgrading from a Duke 390 and I used to own a LAMS MT07. I might even just stick with the Duke 390 because it's a fantastic bike and I can't find any other bikes that really sing to me other than the CB650R but as I said before, Honda doesn't sell the full power version in NZ and it's illegal to derestrict a leaner bike. I'd probably buy the Duke 790 if it was available in NZ but at this point it doesn't seem to be.

Yeap the 650 really shifts for sure...funny how brands dont sell certain bikes in certain countries.

My 8S is better looking & a real world bottom end torque is perfect. Both bikes look like CB500s…

Yea, but there is no top end power on the 8s, plus it’s down 10hp compared to the Hornet… so one word only Meh!

Saw a newish cb125 that looks exactly the same too, but others have said it even looks like a 2013 cb500f. Honda are the epitome of conservative (googling confirmed this) . The hornet sounds good though.
