The CB350 RS gets the same 348 cc, single-cylinder engine which makes 20.8 bhp at 5,500 rpm and 30 Nm of peak torque at 3,000 rpm. The 5-speed gearbox is also the same. The motorcycle gets a slipper and assist clutch. The Honda H’Ness CB 350 is a retro-styled roadster aimed squarely at Royal Enfield’s 350 cc motorcycles in that segment. Like Royal Enfield, Honda’s game plan could see the company introducing multiple models in the segment with different styling and take on Royal Enfield on its turf. Although, it is confirmed that the new model will be retailed through Honda’s BigWing Dealerships that are meant exclusively for premium motorcycles.
