It’s almost twice as powerful as the brand’s current 750-class parallel twin, and that’s exciting.

Would make for an exciting NC 750 lol

92hp out of 755cc twin is good- and not typical Honda.

w/ 55 lb/ft...in a nice compact lightweight bike... sounds fun.

Can't wait to see a dyno chart. Shame the bike will probably be ugly.

Looks just like a mini Africa Twin lump.

2024 GB750 incoming. Bet on it.

You can imagine they will drop the screw and locknut valve clearance adjustment to make this a higher revving more powerful engine over the outgoing 750. I think most owners would happily swap that technology change for those extra horses.

the engine for the new hornet and ??? the reborn transalp ?

The proposed "Hornet" lump is tall. The NC750X would probably lose its frunk if adopted, and possibly its stellar fuel economy.

I know I could live without the frunk though

It will. Blackend engines and motorbikes are ugly. Never saw a good looking watercooled engine in
a motorbike.

Many radiators are ugly on bikes, but Triumph does a pretty good job with the long rectangular one that follow the downtubes. Barely noticeable from my '17 Street Twin that I had prior to the EX.
