You may not be aware that the X-ADV is Honda’s best-selling motorcycle in Europe this year. Honda certainly knows, and that has resulted in the 2022 Honda ADV350 adventure scooter. America doesn’t get the X-ADV, though we do have the ADV150. Now, there’s something in-between, and we’re hoping the ADV350, and the X-ADV, can be delivered to our shores soon. In the meantime, let’s check out the ADV350 and what it has to offer the world of adventure riding.
- The 2022 Honda ADV350 is powered by a 330cc single that puts out 29 horsepower. That peak comes at 7500 rpm, with the torque peak hitting 23 ft-lbs at 5250 rpm. A fully automatic CVT makes it easy to access the four-valve motor’s power. Additionally, the ADV350 has two-level Honda Selectable Torque Control to prevent the rear wheel from breaking traction during acceleration and deceleration.
- The inverted fork is not adjustable, while the twin piggyback shocks have spring-preload adjustment.
- With a fuel tank over three gallons and fuel consumption at 69 mpg, you may get as much as 200 miles between fill-ups.Â
- The 15-/14-inch wheel combination sports off-road-ready rubber. We’re not sure of the brand of tires, however.
- Ground clearance is 5.7 inches, so you’ll want to stick to improved dirt roads.Â
- Disc brakes are found on each wheel. Two-channel ABS is standard.
- Touring riders will appreciate the four-position windscreen that has an adjustment range of over five inches.
- Two full-face helmets can fit in the storage space under the seat. Total underseat storage capacity is 48 liters. For additional cargo-carrying capacity, a Smart Topbox variant is available. The Smart Topbox unlocks automatically with the ADV350’s Smart Key.
- The LCD dash interfaces with your smartphone and has voice control capabilities.Â
- A USB Type-C plug in the glovebox quickly charges compatible smartphones.Â
- We don’t have a price for the 2022 Honda ADV350. As we mentioned at the start, we don’t know if this adventure scooter will make it to the United States, but it would make a great companion to the ADV150 while we wait for the X-ADV.Â
