Honda Motorcycle and Scooters India has issued a voluntary recall for its 300-350cc bikes over two different mechanical issues. The Honda CB300F, CB300R, CB350, H’ness CB350 and CB350RS are facing a wheel speed sensor fault. Whereas, the Honda CB350, H’ness CB350 and CB350RS also have a camshaft issue.
Wheel Speed Sensor Issue
The wheel speed sensor issue is a manufacturing defect, due to an improper moulding procedure. This may lead to water getting deposited in the wheel speed sensor and cause a speedometer error along with traction control and ABS malfunction. This fault can lead to ineffective braking or irregular traction control and ABS intervention, leading the rider in a tricky situation.
The wheel speed sensor issue has been found in the bikes including the Honda CB300F, CB300R, CB350, H’ness CB350 and CB350RS. The bikes which were manufactured between October 2020 and April 2024 are potentially affected by this issue.
Camshaft Component Issue
The camshaft component issue was also due to an improper manufacturing process. It may affect the bike’s mechanical and not let it perform as efficiently as expected. This issue has been encountered in the Honda’s 350cc line-up including the Honda CB350, H’ness CB350 and CB350RS. The bikes manufactured between June 2024 and July 2024 are potentially affected.

- the best liability i have boughtI chose this bike because I liked its retrospective and a twitch of modern blend along with very comfortable riding position and smooth firing of engine. Really good for everyday commute in city and a bit long weekend rides. The ride has been smooth and comfortable, especially on the roads, the handling feels stable and has enough power for highways. Mileage is descent as I already have experienced hunter 350 and overall the bike gives emense pleasure while driving.
