Honda CB350 cafe racer leaked ahead of launch

Honda's new café racer appears to be based on the H’ness CB350.

It seems Honda is planning to introduce yet another 350cc bike in the Indian market. Leaked images suggest that a 350cc café racer could be on the cards.

The new café racer appears to be based on the H’ness CB350. It features a retro look with a bikini fairing up front, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank and a single seat. Several parts on the bike, including the fenders, handlebars and mirrors as well as the tail lamp housing are finished in chrome.

The leaked images also reveal another bike, which seems to be a variant of the H’ness CB350. It is equipped with various touring accessories such as knuckle guards, saddle stays, a pillion backrest, an engine guard and a front visor.

Both bikes are expected to be powered by the same 348cc, single-cylinder engine that powers the H'ness CB350. It develops 20.8 BHP and 30 Nm and is paired with a 5-speed gearbox via a slipper clutch.
