The Honda H’ness CB 350 will be sold under the moniker Honda GB350 in Japan. The new retro-modern motorcycle is scheduled to be launched in the Land of the Rising Sun on 22 April 2021. The Honda H’ness CB350 made its global debut here in India last year. Being a premium product, it is sold via Honda’s BigWing dealerships in the country. Perhaps, considering the growing popularity of the CB350 in the Indian market, Honda has decided to introduce this model in its home country, too, where it will be rebadged and sold as the Honda GB350.
Honda has recently released a press
statement in which it confirmed that the H’ness CB350 will be called the GB350
in the Japanese market. The company also announced that it will launch the new
motorcycle in Japan on 22 April 2021. The GB350 will be priced at JPY 550,000
which converts to INR 3.64 lakh. For reference, the H’ness CB350 in India is
available at a starting price of INR 1.86 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
In Japan, customers would have three
colour choices with the Honda GB350 - Matt Jeans Blue Metallic, Candy
Chromosphere Red, and Matt Pearl Morion Black. In the Indian market, the DLX
variant of the motorcycle is available in 3 single-tone colours - Precious Red
Metallic, Matte Marshal Green Metallic, and Pearl Night Star Black - whereas
the DLX Pro variant has 3 dual-tone paint schemes namely Matte Steel Black
Metallic With Matte Massive Grey Metallic, Athletic Blue Metallic With Virtuous
White, and Pearl Night Star Black With Spear Silver Metallic.
