Honda Motorcycles and Scooters India has launched the 2025 version of its popular retro-styled motorcycle, the CB350RS. With the new model year, Honda has introduced fresh colour options and ensured that the bike meets the upcoming OBD-2B emission regulations. While the mechanical specs remain the same, a few cosmetic changes and updated compliance standards have added a little freshness to the classic design.
Variants
The 2025 CB350RS is available in two variants — DLX and DLX Pro. While there’s no major change in the feature list, Honda has spiced things up with new colour options for each variant.
Here’s how the colours are distributed:
| Variant | New Colours | Existing Colours |
|---|---|---|
| DLX | Pearl Igneous Black, Pearl Deep Ground Grey | – |
| DLX Pro | Mat Axis Grey Metallic, Rebel Red Metallic | Pearl Igneous Black, Pearl Deep Ground Grey |
These colours give the motorcycle a refreshed appearance without changing its classic and rugged charm. The new graphics and revised decals on the fuel tank and side panels also help give it a more youthful look.
Emission
One of the key highlights of the update is the CB350RS now being OBD-2B compliant. For the uninitiated, OBD-2B (On-Board Diagnostics Stage 2B) is part of the new emission regulations that are set to be enforced soon. Honda has tweaked the engine just enough to meet the requirements without altering its output or overall ride experience.
Engine
Mechanically, the CB350RS stays true to its original setup. The engine is a 348.36cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled unit that produces 21.78bhp at 5,500rpm and 30Nm of torque at 3,000rpm. The power delivery remains smooth, making it a great choice for both city commutes and relaxed weekend rides.
Here’s a quick look at the engine specs:
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Engine Capacity | 348.36cc |
| Power Output | 21.78bhp @ 5,500rpm |
| Peak Torque | 30Nm @ 3,000rpm |
| Cooling Type | Air-cooled |
| Emission Compliance | OBD-2B |
The motor continues to be paired with a five-speed gearbox, offering a balanced riding experience that fits well with the retro-modern vibe of the CB350RS.
Pricing
With these updates, there’s a small price hike for both variants. However, the increase is marginal and seems fair considering the new colours and upgraded emission compliance.
| Variant | Price (Ex-showroom) |
|---|---|
| DLX | Rs. 2,15,500 |
| DLX Pro | Rs. 2,18,850 |
For buyers looking for a stylish, reliable, and refined retro motorcycle, the CB350RS continues to be a solid option in the segment.
