Honda Highness CB350 Colours & Design
The Highnes CB350 is available in three colours – red, green and black. Honda has bestowed it with a design heavily inspired by the larger CB 1100 EX. It gets a round headlamp, a curvy fuel tank, a leather tan seat, chopped fenders, and a chrome-finished exhaust. Meanwhile, the presence of blacked-out components and alloy wheels also lend it a modern appeal. The tail section looks quite neat – not too busy not too sober.
