Honda H’Ness CB350 Hits The Road

Honda commenced dispatches of the H’Ness CB350 just a few days ago and now it has also started deliveries. We had recently reported the estimated waiting period for the retro bike in major cities, and you can read all about it here.

The Honda H’Ness CB350 carries an introductory price tag of Rs 1.85 lakh for the DLX variant and Rs 1.90 lakh for the DLX Pro version, both ex-showroom Gurugram. The bike is sold only via Honda’s premium BigWing dealerships for now. This way, Honda can have proper control over the bike’s demand and supply. If the motorcycle performs well, the Japanese bikemaker could bring it to its regular showrooms as well.

The Honda Highness CB350 stands out in its category with several segment-first features such as switchable traction control, smartphone-compatible instrument cluster with voice command and turn-by-turn navigation (exclusive to the DLX Pro variant), assist and slipper clutch, and an all-LED lighting system. These features along with the refined, counterbalanced 21.07PS/30Nm motor should make the bike a more wholesome proposition than its competitors like the Royal Enfield Classic 350, Jawa and Benelli Imperiale 400.

What’s more, Honda offers a standard three-year warranty with the option to extend to three more years for added peace of mind. Are you getting one? Let us know in the comments below.
