As per the teaser image, it appears to be a bigger and more rugged version of H'Ness CB350. The chances of the H'Ness CB500 are also likely since the company has previously hinted at its plans to introduce a bigger cruiser in India. Moreover, it can also be a scrambler concept model based on the present H'Ness CB350.

The bikemaker is readying an entire armada of sub-500cc premium bikes which will entice a larger set of audience and will retail from its 'BigWing' dealerships.
The company has only teased the rear quarter profile of the upcoming bike and from what's visible, the bike seems to have a very H'Ness like design and physical attributes. The updates, on the other hand, include a differently styled tail lamp, indicators, and rugged tyres.
If predictions are true, Honda will reveal a scrambler model based on the current H'Ness CB350, otherwise, there will be a H'Ness CB500 to take on the fight with the Royal Enfield's popular 650 cc bikes - Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650. As far as pricing goes, expect it to be placed somewhere in the range of ₹3 lakh to ₹3.5 lakh (ex-showroom).
