2023 Honda CB350 H’ness, CB350RS Specs

At the heart of CB350 is a 350cc, air cooled single-cylinder OBD2B compliant engine equipped with PGM-FI technology. It delivers a max torque of 30 Nm@3000 rpm. The CB350 exhaust system carries a large tailpipe of 45mm to optimize balance for producing a bold low-pitched sound. Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) helps in maintaining rear wheel traction by detecting difference between front and rear wheel speeds, calculating the slip ratio and further controlling engine torque via the fuel injection. HSTC can be turned ON/OFF using a switch on the left side of meter. A ‘T’ indicator in the digital display flickers when the system is engaging.

The 2023 CB350s now come with NEW Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) that quickly communicates sudden braking to the vehicles behind. The 2023 H’ness CB350 now comes with a new split seat as standard.
