Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India has launched the 2025 iteration of its retro-modern cruiser, the Hness CB350. The bike arrives with updated emission compliance and a refreshed colour palette, while retaining its classic design and reliable mechanicals. Offered in three variants — DLX, DLX Pro, and DLX Pro Chrome — the Hness CB350 now comes with prices ranging between Rs. 2.10 lakh and Rs. 2.15 lakh (ex-showroom).
Variants
The 2025 Hness CB350 lineup offers something for everyone, from the minimalist DLX to the more feature-rich DLX Pro Chrome. While there are no changes in terms of bodywork, Honda has introduced fresh paint schemes to keep the look current and appealing.
Here’s how the colour options break down across variants:
| Variant | Shared Colours | Exclusive Colours |
|---|---|---|
| DLX | Pearl Igneous Black, Pearl Deep Ground Grey | – |
| DLX Pro | Pearl Igneous Black, Pearl Deep Ground Grey | Rebel Red Metallic |
| DLX Pro Chrome | Pearl Igneous Black, Pearl Deep Ground Grey | Athletic Blue Metallic |
The new colours add a modern twist to the otherwise classic styling of the motorcycle, making each variant visually distinct while still retaining the iconic CB feel.
Emissions
The most important update for 2025 is the engine’s compliance with BS6 and the new OBD-2B emission norms. In addition, the bike is now E20 fuel compatible, which means it can run on fuel blends with up to 20% ethanol — a move that aligns with the government’s push for cleaner, more sustainable mobility.
Engine
Mechanically, the Hness CB350 continues with its tried-and-tested setup. It is powered by a 348.36cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that puts out 20.78bhp at 5,500rpm and 30Nm of torque at 3,000rpm. It’s paired with a five-speed gearbox and comes equipped with an assist and slipper clutch for smoother gear shifts and reduced clutch effort.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Engine Capacity | 348.36cc |
| Power Output | 20.78bhp @ 5,500rpm |
| Peak Torque | 30Nm @ 3,000rpm |
| Transmission | 5-speed |
| Cooling Type | Air-cooled |
| Emission Compliance | BS6, OBD-2B, E20 Compatible |
This powertrain is perfect for those looking for a laid-back cruiser with a punchy low-end and enough character for both city commutes and relaxed highway rides.
Features
Honda hasn’t held back when it comes to features. The Hness CB350 packs a decent set of tech for a motorcycle in the retro segment. You get a semi-digital instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity and voice command support — great for navigation and call alerts. There’s also Honda Selectable Torque Control (traction control) and dual-channel ABS, both of which add to the bike’s safety credentials.
Pricing
With the updates in place, the 2025 Hness CB350 is priced as follows:
| Variant | Price (Ex-showroom) |
|---|---|
| DLX | Rs. 2,10,000 |
| DLX Pro | Rs. 2,12,000 |
| DLX Pro Chrome | Rs. 2,15,000 |
These prices make the Hness CB350 a strong contender in the retro roadster segment, where it rivals the likes of the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Jawa 42.
