A quick Google search would suggest there are 
CB750 Hornet

- Start date
I believe looking at the website that Givi are working on top box fitment and also screen
Great to see a new bike that actually looks good value.
Looks a great bike
I had the original 600 Hornet in 1998 and it was brilliant.
This looks to be a belter on paper.
Cheap too.
Luggage options too
I like the white with red frame
I tried one today and it was great.
The concern was that it would be too much like the 790 Duke which although a fantastic bike, seemed to want to get me sent to prison and was no fun unless I rode it like I'd stolen it. I've had two and didn't ride them much.
Hornet 750 can be almost as naughty but doesn't encourage it so I've ordered a grey one.
This colour is the longest delivery time and I'm unlikely to see it before the end of May.
Should be good.
The 750 Hornet just won a comparison test against the Triumph Trident - especially taking into account Value for Money
I didn't like the red frame as much as the black
I'll have the quick-shifter but will fit my own Oxford Advanced heated grips.
My local dealer said they've now sold 25 including one to someone in Falkirk in Scotland which seems very strange.
End of May before I'm likely to get mine.
I'd recommend getting the Honda one; the price included fitting and it ends up being a tidier job - assuming the oxford one has a bar mounted controller unit. Although it might be a little more expensive than the Oxford one I think it will be worth it once you've paid for it and forgotten about the price discrepancy.
Puig do a touring one looks good
Rode one for an hour and a half today, and was very impressed. Reminded me of the KTM390 Duke I foolishly sold, but with lots more power and (hopefully) Honda build quality.
Only question is whether a (low mileage one year old) KTM Duke 890 R would be a better bike….anyone able to comment?

I've had two 790 Dukes and whilst they were fantastic bikes and did everything they were supposed to very well, for me they weren't fun unless you were riding hard so I didn't ride them much.
When I tried the Hornet, I thought it may be like the 790 and if it was I wouldn't have bought it.
I also have a 390 Duke which I've had since 2017 and done 12k miles on inc several trips to the Isle of Man, Nice, Alps, Guernsey, Jersey and La Rochelle. I don't know why it works so well for me but is perfect for French N&D roads, keeps me out of trouble and you have to ride it more than the bigger bikes.
Maybe when the Hornet arrives I'll sell the 390? It's not worth much so maybe I'll just keep it?
I need to buy a screen and front mudguard extender for mine.
Please will you report back on how you find your screen?
Thanks
Deposit placed this afternoon on a grey Hornet, hoping for June delivery 
. Opted for Quickshifter and heated grips and the little windshield thing.

Wonder if they’ll develop it into a half faired version. Looks to be crying out for a little more bodywork up front. Or would that take it too close to the 1100?
Red frame not for me either, need to see one in the flesh but the yellow looks good in the pics.

Better? For anyone suckered by the KTM strapline "Ready to Race", then definitely yes.
or you could lap this up instead
