With a host of cosmetic enhancements, the new Honda CB350 competes directly against the Royal Enfield Classic 350, Yezdi Roadster and Jawa Classic. It boasts a muscular fuel tank, round-shaped LED headlamp, LED turn indicators and LED tail lamp, metal fenders at the front and rear, metallic covers for front forks along with split seats and plenty of silver detailing mainly on the exhaust, around the headlamp, engine area and rear shocks.

It has been made available in a total of five colour schemes namely Precious Red Metallic, Pearl Igneous Black, Matte Crust Metallic, Matte Marshal Green Metallic and Matte Dune Brown. Other highlights are a semi-digital instrument console with voice control, selectable traction control, and emergency stop signals.

The equipment list also comprises assist and slipper clutch, large section telescopic front forks and pressurized nitrogen-charged rear suspension, a 310mm disc at the front and a 240mm disc at the rear assisted by a dual-channel ABS as standard, 130-section 18-inch rear tyre, and a long muffler which is said to produce a bold low-pitched sound.

The exhaust system has a one-chamber structure in the expansion chamber to deliver a ‘rich thumping exhaust note’ and a double-layer structure prevents the exhaust pipe from thermal discolouration to maintain the overall visual appeal. As for the performance, the familiar 348.36 cc, air-cooled, four-stroke, single-cylinder BSVI OBD2-B compliant FI engine is utilised. It makes  20.78 hp at 5,500 rpm and 29.4 Nm at 3,000 rpm and is paired with a five-speed transmission.
