Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda GB350S 2025

Honda GB350S 2025

The Honda GB350 S is not a bike for the pub-talk - it is a bike for people who prefer riding to talking. Its virtues lie not in numbers, but in feeling. And that is precisely why it fits so well into the 1000PS best time concept. Because here, too, it's not the pure lap time that counts in the end - but what happens between the start and finish. Strengths: Weaknesses:

Wonderfully smooth engine running

precise modulation

honest ride feel

surprisingly good handling

classic look with technical maturity

high-quality workmanship

low fuel consumption

very smooth-running clutch

Too little power when overtaking in 70 km/h or 100 km/h zones annoys even relaxed drivers

very defensive traction control
