The Honda CB360 was a twin cylinder four-stroke motorcycle produced from 1974-1976. It was the successor to the CB350.
Following in the footsteps of the enormously successful CB350 Twin, and providing an alternative to the very well reviewed CB350F and CB400F, the CB360G of 1974 was an all new motorcycle. The 360 engine was tuned for broad range torque, and ran through a six speed gearbox.
The model had a short manufacturing life from 1974-76 and did not gain market success despite improvements in some areas (such as an optional disc front brake). The poor acceptance resulted from several factors including:
- early faults with cam shafts
- handling that many considered poor compared with the CB350 Twin
- inferior performance and economy compared to its predecessor
- lower performance than competitors' two stroke models of similar capacity, notably Yamaha RD350.
