Honda has launched the CB350RS, a retro road cruiser based on the recently launched CB350.
The CB legacy dating back to 1959, is widely loved by motorcycle enthusiasts all over the globe owing to its consistent style and thrill-seeking performance.
Visually, the Honda motorcycle gets a dual-tone fuel tank, blacked-out engine area and exhaust, round LED headlamps, an under-seat tail lamp, and sharp LED turn indicators at the front and the rear.
The contemporary cruiser will be powered by the same engine on the CB350, a 348.36cc, single-cylinder engine producing a max power of 20.78 Bhp at 5500 RPM and a max torque of 30 Nm at 3000 RPM. Additionally, it also gets a class-leading slipper clutch for seamless gear shifts.
The digital-analogue instrument cluster hosts an array of features such as mileage indicators, gear position indicator, selectable torque controller, and dual-channel ABS.
The road tyres as seen on the CB350 have been swapped for wide pattern tyres to assist riding in difficult terrains. The CB350RS is expected to share brakes with the CB350, a sure-stopping 310mm front disc and a 260mm rear disc.
The comfort has been revised with a tuck and roll, patterned seat for better comfort and grip and the pillion gets a pair of sporty grabrails for additional convenience.
The CB350RS is available in two colours: Radiant Red Metallic and Black with Pearl Sports Yellow, Honda has opened the bookings for CB350RS at its premium dealerships – BigWing Topline & BigWing across India for Rs. 1,96,000/- (ex-showroom).
The rugged classic motorcycle is going to take on the likes of the Royal Enfield Meteor, the new Jawa 42 2.1, and the Benelli Imperiale 400. Considering the recent 10,000 units sold milestone for the CB350, the RS is expected to taste similar success. (MT)
