Honda had announced the presentation of a majestic motorcycle to compete against Royal Enfield for the Indian market. Now the H`ness CB 350 was introduced, which is to take over this royal task.
Noble classic look
Honda’s CB series is one of the most famous product lines with a very long tradition. In the run-up rumors spoke of Honda’s H`Ness being an adapted Rebel 300. But the return to a classic CB350 fits much better.
The design is has a fitting noble retro look to compete with Royal Enfield. It looks like an evolution of the earlier models.
Modern technology
The H`ness CB 350 is powered by a newly developed single-cylinder engine with 348cc. It produces 20 HP at 5500 rpm and almost 20 Nm at 3000 rpm. The power is transmitted to a 5-speed gearbox.
Despite its retro look, the motorcycle is equipped with modern technology. LED technology is used for the lighting and various devices can be connected via Bluetooth. A digital and analog instrument cluster was installed. The H`ness was also equipped with a traction control and dual ABS.
Whether the Honda H`ness CB 350 can keep up with the price of the competition from Royal Enfield remains to be seen. One suspects a clearly higher price for the Honda.
