Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has recently introduced the CB350, a new addition to their retro lineup. Although built on the existing 350cc platform, the Honda CB350 boasts distinct features setting it apart from the H’ness CB350 and CB350RS.
Honda CB350: Design, Looks, & Features
Closely resembling its rival, the Royal Enfield Classic 350, the CB350 showcases a teardrop-shaped fuel tank. It also comes with long metal fenders, metallic covers for front forks, and split seats. Honda has also gone so far as to give it a similar-looking peashooter-styled exhaust.
LED lights adorn the bike, including a round LED headlamp, indicators, and tail lamp. The CB350 is available in five colours, offering metallic and matte finishes like Precious Red Metallic, Pearl Igneous Black, Matte Crust Metallic, Matte Marshal Green Metallic, and Matte Dune Brown.
Equipped with a digital-analogue instrument cluster and Honda Smartphone Voice Control system (HSVCS), the motorcycle ensures riders have access to advanced information while on the move. Safety features include an assist & slipper clutch, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), and an emergency stop signal that flashes hazard lamps during sudden braking.
Honda CB350: Mechanicals
Powered by a 348.36cc air-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder BSVI OBD2-B compliant PGM-FI engine paired with a 5-speed gearbox, the CB350 delivers 20.7 bhp at 5,500 RPM and 29.4 Nm at 3,000 RPM. Comfort and performance are prioritized with large-section telescopic front forks, nitrogen-charged twin shock absorbers at the rear, and efficient braking systems supported by dual-channel ABS. The bike rides on 100/90 section 19-inch and 130/70 section 18-inch tires at the front and back, respectively.
