Bad news for the Cub. Is this the perfect small bike?

Looks nice enough but I'd have said it's in a totally different market sector.

Might be a candidate if downsizing from big bikes but not yet and not an alternative to a Cub. :D

How refreshing-a basic bike an an affordable price. Wonder how long before the big manufacturers realise the world is very different since pre-Covid times?. I am old fashioned but the price of some new bikes simply staggers me and I am not talking about the "exotica" brands/models.

I'd rather have the Honda CB350 to be honest.

They are around £2000 in India.

The CB is the same price as the top of the range RE in India. So at least double here .

Visordown seem to have missed the point entirely ( yet again) " It would be great if it was a 650 twin with twice the horsepower."

I've read a 650 version is on the table, but it wont be a cheap bike imo. This 350 is, I hope its as good as they say it is, because then you will have a very decent 350 single cheaper than a honda cb 125r.
