Honda CB350 Motorcycle Launched In India At Rs 2.00 Lakh – Honda’s Bullet Against The Royal Enfield Classic 35

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) launched the CB350 motorcycle at Rs 1,99,990 (ex-showroom). Looking at the pricing and design, we can clearly see that the newly launched Honda CB350 is squarely aimed at the Royal Enfield Classic 350.

Like the Honda CB350 H'ness and the Honda CB350 RS, the newly launched Honda CB350 is also exclusively sold via the more premium Big Wing dealership. It is also worth mentioning that the new Honda CB350 is available in two variants - DLX and DLX Pro.

Starting with the design, designers at Honda have made a good effort to make the new CB350 look classic with the incorporation of new fuel tank, updated side panels, bigger and more retro-looking mudguards, shrouded RSU telescopic front suspension and a new retro-themed exhaust.

In addition to the attractive design, the new Honda CB350 motorcycle is also available in 5 different shades. These colour options include Precious Red Metallic, Pearl Igneous Black, Matte Crust Metallic, Matte Marshal Green Metallic, and Matte Dune Brown.

Coming to the powertrain, the Honda CB350 is powered by the same 348.36cc, single-cylinder engine as the Honda CB350 H'ness and the Honda CB350 RS motorcycles. This engine is tuned to produce 20.8bhp at 5,500rpm and 29.4Nm of torque at 3,000rpm.
