The Honda CB350 K was a standard motorcycle part of the CB series, which was known for its reliable engines, excellent handling, and affordability. The bike was manufactured between 1968 and 1973 and was powered by an OHC parallel twin-cylinder engine.
Over its production years, the bike featured cosmetic changes and improvements to the suspension and braking system. With its reliable engine, the bike became one of the best-selling motorcycles, with more than 250,000 units sold in five years and over 67,000 sold in 1972 alone.
Like its CB77 Superhawk predecessor, the CB350 was made available in a scrambler form, as the CL350 model, with a high-mounted exhaust system and a 19-inches front wheel, and as the SL350, with an upswept exhaust system and off-road styling.
In addition, the 1969 model came equipped with standard features, such as a one-piece dual seat, a chromed exhaust system, an analog instrument panel, a wide handlebar, a black-finished steel frame, a center stand, and wire-spoked wheels.
For suspension, the bike packed a telescopic fork on the front and dual shock absorbers on the rear for optimum suspension performance, and for stopping power, it featured a drum braking system both front and rear.
As for the power figures, the 1969 Honda CB350 had at its core a 325cc four-stroke parallel-twin air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 36 hp at 10,500 rpm and 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) of torque available at 9,500 rpm.
