2025 Honda CB350 Range Launched At ₹2 lakh

The Honda CB350 range has been updated for 2025. All three bikes – CB350, H'ness CB350 and CB350RS – have been refreshed with new colour options, and an OBD-2B compliant engine which in turn has changed the performance slightly too. Here’s what’s new with each bike:

Honda CB350

The 2025 Honda CB350 comes in two variants: DLX and DLX Pro, priced at ₹2 Lakh and ₹2.18 lakh respectively (ex-showroom, Delhi). Both variants will now be available in five new shades: Pearl Igneous Black, Mat Marshal Green Metallic, Mat Dune Brown, Mat Crust Metallic, and Precious Red Metallic. Along with that, bits like new chrome body parts and differently coloured seats are the new additions for this year. 

The CB350 now features an OBD-2B compliant 348.36 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine producing 21.07 bhp and 29.4 Nm, paired with a 5-speed gearbox with slip-and-assist clutch. Mechanically, the rest remains unchanged with telescopic fork and dual shock absorbers at the rear. Disc brakes are fitted at both ends, mounted on 19-inch front and 18-inch rear alloy wheels. The bike has a 15.2-litre fuel tank capacity and weighs 187 kg kerb.

Honda H'ness CB350

The 2025 Honda H'ness CB350, a modern roadster, comes in four variants:

The DLX variant offers two colour choices: Pearl Deep Ground Grey and Pearl Igneous Black. The DLX Pro variant adds Rebel Red Metallic as an additional option. The DLX Pro Chrome variant features three colour schemes: Athletic Metallic Blue, Pearl Deep Ground Grey and Pearl Igneous Black.

Now OBD-2B compliant, the H'ness uses the same engine as the CB350 but produces slightly more torque - 30 Nm instead of 29.4 Nm. It shares identical suspension and braking components but features a 15-litre fuel tank and weighs 181 kg kerb.

Honda CB350RS

The 2025 Honda CB350RS, styled as a scrambler, features a quilted single-piece seat, dual-purpose block pattern tyres and matte-black up-swept exhaust. It's available in four variants:

The DLX variant comes in two new colour schemes: Pearl Deep Ground Grey and Pearl Igneous Black. The DLX Pro variant adds two additional colours: Mat Axis Grey Metallic and Rebel Red Metallic (new).

The CB350RS shares the same OBD-2B compliant engine and features as the H'ness CB350 but weighs slightly less at 180 kg kerb (1 kg lighter than the H'ness CB350).

While this refresh might help Honda maintain some relevance in India's 350cc segment, what remains to be seen is how that slight change in performance affected the bike’s ride behavior. Its competition includes the new Jawa 350 FJ and the updated Royal Enfield Classic 350. Which one will stand out the most? Stay tuned to this space for we shall find out soon.
