Ben Purvis from CycleWorld has just covered a set of patent papers that could show a full-fairinged version of the CB750 Hornet on the way – and it’s all thanks to the image of the bike in the figure.
As seen above, we’ve been given a bike showing a revamp of componentry behind the handlebars of what appears to be a Hornet… only it also makes mention of a removable front fairing that the Hornet doesn’t have.

Suspicious? Very.
What’s more, this isn’t the first time Honda has patented a bit of componentry using an upcoming bike as a vague reference in patent photos.
Purvis points to the fact that the Transalp had shown up in patents prior to the bike’s debut, and that everyone’s sights are set on the highly popular 750 platform currently kicking about in Japan:
Bottom line, Honda knows how to make pretty bikes – and we’ll be looking forward to seeing how Honda fulfills this patent as we near EICMA and the season’s closing.
