What new here is the seat, which has a different contour. We can also see a dual-purpose rear tyre hinting that this motorcycle could be a scrambler. The LED taillight brings the picture of the rear end of the Honda CBR650F to mind. The rear fender assembly appears to be new.

As for the engine, the new Honda motorcycle would use the same 350cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that powers the CB 350. It is capable of putting out 21 hp of max power at 5500 rpm and 30 Nm of peak torque at 3000 rpm. Honda will sell its upcoming bike via its premium BigWing dealerships.
