On Thursday, July 6, 2023, Honda will officially release the lightly updated 2023 GB350 and GB350 S in Japan. While some updates center on performance or other features that are immediately noticeable during the riding experience, this update brings the GB350 and GB350 S in line with current Japanese emissions regulations compliance. It also gets some new colors for the new year, so let’s take a look.
The 2023 Honda GB350 gets an all-new Matte Pearl Glare White color scheme, which joins the existing Matte Pearl Morion Black and Matte Jeans Blue Metallic paint offered in 2022. Although those two colors carry over from the previous year, the 2023 bikes also see another small aesthetic change, as the spring on the rear shock is now black.
