Speaking of the Honda CB350 model, Honda patented a new name ‘CB350 Brigade’ in India recently. No other information regarding this patented name is available as of now. 

While some whispers suggest that this might be a new variant added to the CB350 lineup soon, a few whispers suggest that this could be the name of a new riding club exclusively for the CB350 owners.  There are currently 2 variants offered in the CB350 range – CB350 H’ness & CB350 RS.
