New 2023 Honda CB350 and CB350RS Variants: 4 Things That Are New

The 2023 Honda CB350 and CB350RS have been launched at Rs 2.09 and 2.14 lakh (ex-showroom) onwards, and there’s a bunch of new stuff you should be excited about. That said, the most significant change in this update has to be the BS6 Phase 2 compliance.

Engine:

The newest revision for 2023 on both bikes is the inclusion of the second generation of Onboard Diagnostic Device (OBD 2), allowing both models to meet the upcoming BS6 Phase-2 emission standards that allow them to comply with emission regulations not just in laboratory conditions but also in real time in the real world. The second most significant change on both the H’ness CB350 and CB350RS is the introduction of new variants.

Variants & Prices: 

Honda traditionally offered DLX and DLX Pro variants on the H’ness CB350; but now, the CB350RS also gets the same nomenclature. On the CB350RS the DLX variant gets two colours, whereas the DLX Pro comes in both dual tone and monotone scheme (one colour each). Even the H’ness CB350 gets a new Chrome-finished variant under the Pro badge.

Tech:

The Pro variants in both bikes feature smartphone connectivity with voice control and a new hazard light function. Honda is also offering a special six-year warranty (three years standard plus three years optional extended warranty).

Customisation:

Each bike also gets a full suite of custom parts which can either be purchased as a set or individually depending on your preference. Preset kits like ‘Comfort’, ‘Tourer’, ‘Cafe Racer’, ‘Solo Carrier’ and ‘SUV’ help give both bikes a whole new attitude but also set you back anywhere between Rs 7,000 to Rs 22,000.  For more details on the customisation kits, check out this story.
