Honda’s Newest Cafe Racer Arrives Today

This will be the third member of Honda’s CB350 family

[Update: The event is under embargo, and further details about the same will be revealed soon]

Honda is all set to introduce its cafe racer today, just days after the images of the bike leaked from a dealer event. The new bike is likely to be called the Honda CB350 Cafe, and would be based on the CB350RS.

The new Honda CB350 Cafe gets bits like a headlight cowl, single seat and a tail cowl for a better visual appeal. This also means that these parts could be retrofitted to the existing bikes. And a couple of images from the event hinted at that.

On display at the event were a H’Ness CB350 with the same cafe racer parts and another unit with a unique windshield and a pillion backrest. We reckon, Honda could be offering these bits as accessories for both the bikes.

It is unlikely that Honda will introduce any mechanical changes to the model. We expect the same 348cc single-cylinder engine, pumping 21PS and 30Nm, to continue its duty. Suspension and braking components too shall remain unchanged.

Currently, the H’ness CB350 demands Rs 2,00,386 for the base variant and Rs 2,07,886 for the Anniversary edition. Meanwhile the CB350 RS costs Rs 2,06,015 (all prices ex-showroom Delhi). We expect the new Cafe variant to arrive next month, with a price tag between Rs 2.15 lakh to Rs 2.20 lakh.
