Mechanical components
The Honda CB350 RS Cafe Racer will soon be available, and enthusiasts can’t wait to get their hands on the new motorcycle. A launch date has now been announced for the popular CB350 cafe racer variant, which was recently unveiled to dealers in a private event. The new CB350 cafe racer will have the same mechanical components as the standard CB350, but it will have a new headlamp bikini fairing with a small flyscreen and a rear seat cowl to give it the traditional cafe racer appearance. The CB350 H’ness and CB350RS models are also anticipated to receive upgrades like OBD2 compliance.
Equipped with Chrome accents
In order to give it a more vintage cafe racer appearance, the upcoming Honda CB350 RS Cafe Racer is anticipated to receive several visual updates, including a new headlamp bikini fairing with a small flyscreen and a rear seat cowl. The bike is expected to retain the same mechanicals as the standard CB350 and is unlikely to receive any significant upgrades. It might have chrome accents, and there might also be a blacked-out model available. Contrary to expectations, the CB350 cafe racer will not feature a clip-on handlebar and will instead maintain a tall-set handlebar unit.
Engine will support E20 fuel and be OBD2 compliant.
The 348 cc single-cylinder engine found in the rest of the CB350 family will continue to power the upcoming Honda CB350 cafe racer. The engine is anticipated to support E20 fuel and be OBD2 compliant. The power ratings of 20.8 bhp at 5,500 rpm and 30 Nm of peak torque at 3,000 rpm are probably going to stay the same. A 5-speed gearbox will be mated to the engine. LED lighting, a semi-digital instrument console, and dual-channel ABS are other features that will be kept.
Honda CB350 RS: Other features

A rear seat cowl, chrome or blacked-out finishes, a headlamp bikini fairing, and other aesthetic improvements will be added to the bike. The 348 cc single-cylinder engine is anticipated to stay the same, and it may even be OBD2 compliant and prepared for E20 fuel. LED lighting, dual-channel ABS, a semi-digital instrument console, and other features will all remain on the bike.
