2021 Honda CB350 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2021 Honda CB350 allround motorcycle, Honda relies on a 348.3 cc (21.3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 20.8 HP (15.2 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 30 Nm (22.1 lb-ft) at 3,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 59.7 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (3,000 rpm) and peak power (5,500 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the CB350 measures 181 kg (399 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (8.7 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,441 mm (56.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
