Super proud owner of the CB350 RS !! Your excitement mirrors mine 😁😅... I know the feeling... Sold my jawa 42 which i rode only 7000kms in 2 years.. and got this awesome machine... Now i have completed 5500kms in 3 months... Hats off to Honda... Thank you for making this video... 👍👍
Thank you for sharing this, baba. I'm super glad to know that our excitement matches.
Also, a lot of people are complaining about petty issues with the machine, kind of makes me happy 😅 (less CB350 RS on the road = Stronger Road presence)
Hahaha...
Thank you for watching :)
Curious to know how CB350 RS is better than Jawa 42?
@@Miki-So Hello there.
Actually there are too many areas where the Honda CB350 RS outshines the Jawa 42.
All views are purely personal.
1. Honda's Reliability is unmatched.
2. Sure, on paper Jawa offers more power with a smaller displacement engine - however, the quality of power/the way the power is delivered are totally different. I like the refinement of the Honda.
3. For high speed stability on Highways, I would always prefer the extra weight and dimensions of the RS, I always found the Java to be a smaller frame motorcycle.
4. Higher tank range in Honda, less petrol outlet stops.
5. Seat height of Jawa for me is too low at 765mm
6. 19 inch front wheel on the Honda helps with gliding over potholes. Size of the tyres are huge too - more contact with the road translates to more grip and confidence while riding.
7. Honda has a bigger front disc brake set up at 310mm. BYBRE vs Nissin - you decide which is better. I'll pick the Nissin any day.
8. Halogen vs LED
9. The dual exhausts look flimsy.
10. Japanese R&D is way to ahead of the competition
And, there are many more reasons.. honestly - I love how the CB350 RS looks - never got the same feeling for Java.
Again, all thoughts are personal.
Why curious, if I may ask?
@@StallionRides curious to know because I am looking for a touring bike. Choices are Dominar 400, Jawa 42, Honda CB 350RS, Yamaha FZ 25 and Suzuki Gixxer250. I used to have 150 cc Hero Honds CBZ, but Now I want something for long touring. Honda goes a bit over the budget, Dominar and Jawa I can find 2nd hand in good condition and Suzuki or Yamaha I could buy new one.
Hi miki, how much mileage u get
3 months..... 6000 kms..... And it's getting better and better.....falling deeper and deeper in love with the motorcycle. Really happy that I bought this machine❤️
Hello there, Arun.
Thank you for watching :)
6000 km in 3 months, seems like you ride your motorcycle everyday.
You are right, you know someone once told me that Honda engines age like fine wine 😃
The more you ride, the better they keep getting.
Happy for you, happy for me 😅
I have completed 8000kms in 6 months on my Highness....its a great bike ❤
My last trip was Delhi to Ladakh via Sringar back to Delhi.. completed 2700kms in 9 days and this bike never ever let a single second be uncomfortable.
This is full package in its range ❤️❤️
Hello, Abhinav. I can relate with your experience. I did over 4400+ kms during my Ladakh ride and didn't encounter a single challenge. It's one beautiful beast.
Thank you for sharing your story here 😃
Adore your energy and enthusiasm in the voice. It gives me more confidence to purchase CB350RS soon. If I purchase, this would be the first bike I own by myself.
You made my day, baba.Thank you, Sourav.
I genuinely hope that you purchase your First Motorcycle soon, may be we could go on a ride some day then.
Cheers!
@@StallionRides Pretty soon, man.
Haha, do share tips and tricks on how you maintained your Stallion in the last 20 months.
Me too completed 22k kms in 2 years in my hness...awesome engine performance. Nothing can beat this beast in this segment.
Hello there, Dinesh.
I agree one hundred percent. In the 350cc long stroke segment this truly is a class leader :)
22k in 2 years, that's awesome. Are you into long rides, where are you from?
@@StallionRides from kerala. Only short day trips covering Max 450 kms..
@@dinesh2759 I love the fact that you referred to 450km trips as short rides :)
I know a lot of people who would ride less than 200 kms and say they did a long ride.. haha.
Thanks for sharing.
I made some new friends from Kerala during my Ladakh ride, have you seen those videos? I'm sure you'll like them :)
what about handle wobbling please reply 🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋
@@amlansatapathy2251 nothing like faced till date. My avg speed is 80kmph. Even went upto 130, no wobbling.
It feels so good to hear such nice things about the machine you own. Completely relating to your ownership experience.. Keep shining 🌟
Hello to you there, Shourav.
Glad to know that you were able to relate.
By the way, what color do you own? Where are you from? Any particular thing you dislike about the motorcycle?
Was not a big fan of riding long rides until i watched this. Loved the review and narration man, you sounded like someone who is truly in love of what you were doing 🙌
Thank you for your kind words, Rishi. I'm glad you enjoyed watching the video. Do you own a CB350 RS? Planning to buy one?
Where are you from?
I must say..when one does long rides..one learns a lot about themself 😃
Amazing review! Very informative and unbiased! Thank you for not being a Royal Enfield enthusiast! Loved each and every second plus the bike sounds amazing. Will be buying this in June!
Thanks man!
Hello to you there, Rakshit.
Glad you enjoyed the video and found it useful 😀
Advanced Congratulations on your purchase.. please do share once you take the delivery 😇
You are a very lucky man. We will never see this motorcycle here in Canada and the U.S.A. Thank you for your awesome review.
Hello to you there from India. I hope you are doing grand!
Thank you for your time, and kind words. About the lucky man part, I wouldn't be so sure 😁
Also, this motorcycle will not be any good for the beautifully built roads of North America, it offers only 20bhp Power 😂
Thank you for your enthusiastic review! It's truly impressive how you engage with your viewers by responding to every comment. Your dedication to your audience is commendable.
I've had some concerns about this bike for almost a month, and I'm feeling a bit confused. I've come across certain issues mentioned in online reviews:
1. Rust problems.
2. Wobbling at high speeds.
3. Difficulties in high-altitude pickup.
4. Mud-related issues during the monsoon.
Could you please provide insights on how the bike handles these situations and if there are any solutions to these problems? Your expertise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for creating amazing content and for your positive videos. subscribed ❤
1. Rust: It is a genuine issue. You’ll notice rust near the inside area of the silencer and the additional helmet lock area. It doesn’t bother me. I had a covered parking for almost 14 months after purchasing the motorcycle- never saw rust. It started when I changed my apartment and no longer had a covered parking.
2. The motorcycle does NOT wobble if you ride with hands on the handlebar. Wobbling only happens when you ride hands free - that too occasionally, weight distribution, tyre pressure, I don’t know what to blame but it’s there at times. Never if you ride holding the handlebar.
3. Never had an issue with High-Altitude pick up. In fact I did the Ladakh circuit before the ECU update, still had no challenges. Rev matching is super important for superior performance of this machine. You have to be on the right gear at the right speeds when going uphill. That’s all. The motorcycle has plenty of torque on offer.
4. Mud-related issue - The motorcycle gets dirty, yes. If that’s what you are asking. Does not lose one bit of performance though.I don’t mind my motorcycle looking dirty as long as it starts and takes me wherever I want to go without breaking.
Thank you for such a lovely comment, Nishan.
I have a question, please. Was that ChatGPT? 😬
2 weeks and completed 700KM. Was confused between Harley X440 and CB RS 350. Took this beast and proud to be the owner of this❤❤❤
Congratulations, Aditya. Thank you for sharing your happiness with us 😀
Hi stallion, i just noticed how patiently and informatively you’re replying to every comments and i just subscribed right away!! Keep up the good work man. And one question i was confused between what to buy, i have three options in hand duke 200, cb350 rs and mt15. My needs are reliability, brakes, mileage,looks and comfortable on little long rides around 500 km. So could you please help me out here. Thanks!!
Hello to you, Kurun.
Thank you for your kind words.
I would pick the CB350 RS from the options you shared. However, something tells me that you like to ride fast, you enjoy quick acceleration and overtakes (maybe just my stupid assumption).
For the purpose you mentioned CB350 RS will be the most reliable, real value for money, and perfect machine for you.
What's your built? If you have wide shoulders and a broad frame, you must know that the duke 200 and mt15 will feel like little machines.
Think long term, go with the Honda.
Baba, if you actually enjoy those quick bursts of acceleration, those tight curves and thrill it gives - go with the duke 200.
Mt15 - I won't recommend. I don't have any particular reason, I would pick the R15 any day over the MT15 or the duke 200.. just my thoughts.
Hope that helps 😃
Highly correlated with the points you mentioned, brilliant review, 1st gear goes till 40 that's the only minor change.
I've ridden 25k all on highways and the city. The engine and the ride you told you can only feel it feels in unison with the tarmac. And the thump just encourages you to push through. Happy Riding!
Thinking whether a handlebar mod would help or not for highway riding.
@@user-fy8pf9tv4q Thank you, baba.
You could always give the handlebar mods a try 😀
What a reliable work horse❤🔥‼️
Absolutely, Shaddam 😃
Your reviews of CB350 RS have really got me get one for me as well. Looking forward to riding it exploring places like you!
Hello to you, Deepak.
Congratulations, baba.
It's genuinely an amazing motorcycle, you just need to understand its character.
Also, thank you for your kind words 😃
Everyone else saying negative things because of the tall gearing except you.
I think I understood your point because of the demonstration.
Good video ❤
Hello, Ankit.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😀
Welcome to the team.
Loving my CB350RS riding in the mountains of Taiwan and the city of Taipei. Handles and performs like a Champ. I also ride with a pillion and a top box. Awesome Machine for what it was designed for.
Hello to you there from India.
Thank you for sharing, I agree 100%, awesome machine for what it was designed for 😀
What is the max speed you get if I may ask?
Top speed I got was 125. Fastest I cruise is about 110 because of road conditions and restrictions. I am usually around 100 to 110 on expressway. Good acceleration for city traffic and great in the steep mountains and switchbacks.
@@francis105G Thank you for sharing, I have done over 140kmph.. however, you are right 100-110 is both the sweet and safe spot :)
Best review I have seen keep going Stallion
I'm glad you like it.
Thank you, Mr. Pubg Lover 😀
Excited for the accessories video.
Honda is Honda ❤️
Proud owner of CBR 250R and ex owner of CB300R & Hornet 160R

I started with a Honda CB Twister.
Thank you for sharing 😀
@@StallionRides ✌🏽
If I may ask, why did you sell off your CB300R? That’s a pocket rocket right there.
Smooth as **** , bro controlled him a lot😂
Hahaha.. 😅
Indeed I did. Good catch, Aditya.
Love your energy but jealous of your English🙃... Got H'ness black anniversary edition 5 months back, but it feels like it has always been here. Rode almost 6k+ kms on it. Service center is 230 kms away but come on man, it's worth it.
Thank you for your kind words 😇
Why are you jealous of my English though, I know I mess up the English during vlogs.. learning to concentrate on talking while riding. I'm new in this space 😅
It is definitely worth it. The anniversary edition looks killer. Cheers, man 😃
Really got confident to see his excitement.. talking abt this machine!!!
Super super awesome review 😁 Subbed to your channel....I just loved how you speak
I'm also planning to buy this bike in the next month and i just had one question
My usages are almost city and weekend long rides and i am a 5ft 11in Guy and i also don't prefer enfield because of Honda's awesome refinement.... So is this bike perfect for me?
Hello to you there, Vinay.
Thank you for your kind words, means a lot.
Your height will definitely help with low speed maneuvers. I believe the Honda CB350 RS is any day a better machine than the Royal Enfield.
However, I wouldn't call it a perfect machine..
if high speed, spirited riding is not your thing, if you aren't bothered with water splashing everywhere because of the size of the mudguard, if you are looking for a no-nonsense reliable machine -- pick the Honda CB350 RS. I swear you can rely on a Honda with your eyes closed...buy a Honda and the Ownership experience will include Peace of Mind at the top spot. The machine just performs... I have ridden it in almost every terrain - not one issue so far.
Also, riding to me is more like a passion..so all I care about is the fact that the motorcycle does what it is intended to do, that is take you places without repairs and additional headaches.. so in that context I believe there is no better 350cc machine than this.
Hope this helps :)
Hi stallion rider😃❤
I purchased cb350rs blue colour a week ago, absolutely loving this bike, this is my first ever bike.
Did you feel the need to install handle bar raiser in your bike??
I did a 100km ride yesterday on Pune Lonavala highway with one break at 50km and felt slight pain in my palm, could it be negated with installing handle bar raiser, or shall I put foam handle bar grips ?
I think since I’m new to motorcycling I need to get used to these sweet pains haha 😂
Thanks for making review video which helped me choosing this bike, looking forward for more.
Hello there, Nikhil.
Congratulations on your purchase ✌️
I don't feel the need to install the handle bar raiser, I like the slight stretch to reach the handlebars. .plus installing raisers will definitely mess the handling dynamics of the motorcycle a bit.
Yes, baba.. you will get used to the posture in some days and your grip will keep getting better. As it's a heavy machine, it takes a little getting used to :)
Thank you for watching, baba..I'm glad the video helped you make a decision.
Cheers!
Bro .. booking same blue 💙 one .. 💯
@@AllRounderNitinvlogs Congratulations, Nitin 😃
Thank you for sharing.
@@StallionRides thanks brother.. 😊
@@StallionRides that's a very simplistic approach you're taking. The riding dynamics are also affected by how tall the rider is, also the limb length. So a little tweaks here are there are needed to make the maotorcycle fit you best
Got a used Hness, 2022 anniversary edition. I am started showing the symptoms of disease you have got now. At the moment just getting used to the motorcycle as I haven’t done any serious bike riding since 2014.
Nice review 👍
Thank you for sharing your experience, baba 😀
Superb video bro very informative for me 👍
This man really loves this machine 😅
Hi,
I just wanted to know if the mud splashing is big concern for this bike..and did you do anything to avoid this issue
Hello there, Sridhar.
Yes, please. The mud splashing issue is real, however I wouldn't call it a concern as the performance of the motorcycle is not at all impacted by this.
I have not installed any mudguards yet, haven't had any issue, except for occasional splashes. I mean this issue is not a deal breaker for me.
You can always add a Carbon Racing mudguard extender and solve this problem. I don't use it as I like how the motorcycle looks as it is :)
It's definately not a concern regarding bike performance but even after installing mud guards (front & rear ) i am facing mud splashing that too when i have not even ride it in monsoon till now. That is bcz rear tyre is not covered much. Otherwise the bike is better then it's competitors. You can go for it
@@Rajat1293 Thank you for your input, Rajat. Couldn't agree more 😀
I don't subscribe so fast normally.. but u gud man. Keep up the energy nd gud vibe bro... good luck
Thank you for your kind words, baba😃
I appreciate your time.
Bro i own cb350rs and falling in love everyday❤️😇....but lots of owners are complaining about wobbling issue after 5k kms ...now I am feeling little worried because I clocked 5500 km ...till now no wobbling for me but I am scared if it might start....what is your take on this😐
Hello there, Alan.
Yes, please. It makes you fall in love everyday.
Honestly, to this day I have never experienced wobbling issues, it's scary how some users are complaining.
My take - I don't know what to say about this, this is an unheard problem for a Honda machine.
I have this blind trust for Honda and so far I have had no reasons to complain.
My apologies for not knowing the solution, baba.
@@StallionRides yes same here
@@alanbenny7962 Please do share in a few months in case anything changes :)
Cheers buddy.
@@StallionRides sure mate
@@StallionRides angway started watching your videos today ...loved it...keep going❤️🙌
I taught to buy Himalayan but now by cing your review feels to buy cb 350 rs
Hello to you, Srinidhi.
Wow, I'm so glad to know this video made you re-consider your choice.
Trust me, Himalayan is a great motorcycle..Honda is just too reliable 😃
Stallion has never disappointed me. 24000 kilometres and not one setback.
Questions, queries, and feedback are welcome :)
Currently debating between Highness CB350 and CB350 RS. Which one would you recommend and why?
@@M4NA5 Hello there, Manas.
Would you believe me if I tell you that I fought the same dilemma in my head for 2 months before settling for the RS.
Value for Money - Go for Highness, it offers more than the RS. Bluetooth, extra buttons on the left handlebar (looks nice and makes toggling between info easy), dual horns with cover, and kind of better pillion comfort with the footrest and all that.
Feel of Riding - Go for the RS.
I test rode the Highness I enjoyed it, it was nice.
I sat on the RS saddle and immediately felt a connect with it ( the riding posture was bang on), it felt like I was holding a heavy beast, I mean it was a feeling baba, cannot really explain, I felt the handle bars as an extension of my hands in some manner.
Apart from that, the looks are unrealistic, there hasn't been an instance when I park my motorcycle and don't turn to admire.
The seats of RS are wider and better than Highness in my opinion, 130 section vs 150 section rear tyre - that's a big difference.
Plus, I can keep typing...
Please feel free to ask any specifics too, Manas.
By the way, thank you for watching.
How is the seating comfort, anything added to seat for this long ride?
@@MrNaveen9999 Hello there, Naveen. The stock seats are superb, trust me. They are wide and optimised for long rides, neither too soft nor too hard. Also, they are waterproof, a big plus. I have done over 1000 kilometres in a day and never had a butt/back issue.
@@StallionRides Some confusion in which to choose and your reply. Could you please take a relook at the answer.
I bought Highness, and fell in love with the bike man. I was a royal Enfield lover but one of my friends suggested this bike to try once. Yaa , it just blew my mind. I was like remove the name ( Enfield nd honda ) nd then ride the bike , u can't help falling in love with highness. Some of my friends asked did u change the silencer? I was like no , such a strong and deep thumping it has. Such a wonderful machine.
Thank you for sharing, baba. Such a lovely machine it is. Cheers 😀
My two stroke 125cc TG1 made by Gilera back in 1976 had more spunk and speed than this bike. I don't understand why. Motorcycles back then were more powerful and faster.
Hello to you there.
Humans back then were healthier, powerful and less disturbed in general. Guess a lot has changed 🙃
Sir actually Honda is using non abs brake pads for this bike so that's why the brake pads are wearing out early, very early. Try versah brake pads for hness or cb 350 it works very nicely for longer period
Hello there.
Thank you for your recommendation. I will definitely do some research on this before next break pad replacement.
You are selling a lot of CB350RS for Honda!!
Got myself one today😃
Haina.
Congratulations, Ved 😀
This bike one thing i like about is its look... This give the old classic vibes ... 😅
Good review. Thanks for that! Why is the oncoming traffic always driving in your lane? Are they illiterate?
Thank you for your time, Aneesh.
People make mistakes, baba 🙃
@theompman Lane lane lane - look at mee Im sooo educated. Tfoh bro have you ridden in the hills before?
I'm super happy with my cb350rs. This is definitely a capable engine. Highway ride is super smooth till 110. Can reach 120 as well if the road is good.
But I feel the seat is not very comfortable, you can do a 150 kms continously after that you start feeling pain in the Butt... Could be because of a little narrow seat...
Hello there, Murali. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
In my opinion the seats of RS are much wider than that of the Highness. Also, 150kms is a decent riding distance in one go.. however, I have done over 350+ kms without a break and never had butt/back issues.
I feel the pillion seat could have been better.
A question - do you wear riding pants while doing long distance? I feel the riding pants help, in my case my butt gets a good cushion 😅
speed with gearshift is : on first gear, 20-25 max
sencond gear, 40-45 max
third gear, 65- 70 max
fourth gear, 95- 100 km/hr
fifth gear, 120 and above
Thank you for your input, Akshay 😀
Hey, thanks for the informative video. Could you please tell if this bike is good in terms of pillion comfort?
Hello, Utkarsh.
It depends on the willingness and overall fitness levels of the pillion.
Context: I once had a pillion who had no challenges whatsoever throughout multiple long and off-road rides, because we enjoyed each other’s company. Willingness plus this person was fit.
The same person tends to complain lately about comfort and cancel plans, still fit - but no willingness. Hope that make sense.
Very Good Review man.. Thank You!!
I have also bought CB350 DLX Pro last month. I have noticed some some noise from front sporcket side. Have you faced similar issue?
Hello to you, Sandeep.
Yes, please. I did. Are you referring to a weird noise the front of the motorcycle makes on sudden acceleration from stop? If yes.. I did have the same issue till before my first service.. I told my mechanic in the BigWing, he didn't seem to know a fix but then the issue went away on its own after the first service.
I mean post the 1st service, I haven't had this problem till now.
And, thank you for taking the time to watch the video.
@@StallionRides Thanks for quick response.. I found this video on youtube. I have exactly the same issue. First service done, issue is still there.
ruclips.net/user/shortsPwwCx08-USE?feature=share
CB350 DLX Pro is good for pillion ? any cons ? planning to buy one
Love From Chennai 💙
Bro can you help me choose between H'ness 350 and CB 350 RS ? I am pretty confused which Model to buy 🤔
Both have the same engine, baba.
The RS looks and feels a bit more solid due to a chunky stance. Plus, the rider triangle on the Rs will offer a slightly better connect with the road and machine.
You must take a test ride. I felt better on the Rs Saddle than I felt on the Highness, so I picked the RS
@@StallionRides Will definitely take a Test Ride 😉
Thanks Bro 💙
I've heard that the paid services are ridiculously high. is that the case ?
this high maintenance cost is the only thing that's keeping me from buying this bike
Hello, Mohit.
Yes, the Labour charge on paid services is a bit on the higher side.
However, I must admit, there is no other maintenance charges than regular paid service.
I mean you only have to invest on the machine every 5500-6000km ..in between there's no cost of ownership, the parts are too reliable 😃
Hope that helps.
On the scale of 1(min) to 10(max) how would you rate CB350RS for Indian traffic conditions, how easy it's to manuver this bike through traffic?
Hello, Yatharth.
In stock condition - 10
With accessories and modifications - Depends.
@@StallionRides Hi,
Really!! Even though it's a cruiser type of bike?
I took test ride of CB350RS and CB300R, loved both the bikes and now I am confused. I don't do a lot of touring though but who knows what lies ahead! One of these two will be my first bike so not sure which one to pick! Any suggestions?
@@yatharthbisht7453 Really, baba.
Both are superb machines. Plus, you get the Honda reliability. My only apprehension with the 300R is the small frame, carrying luggage and highway rides won’t be that fun I reckon.
If you like speed, go with the 300R, CB350 RS is an overall 360 package.
Thanks a lot man, yhea this make sense. I am not a speed freek and I too think 300R would be a small bike for me but the looks and the agility, the refinement man! If I don't get emotional while buying I will probably pick 350RS but who knows 😆
@@yatharthbisht7453 Haha. All the best to you, baba. Do tell once you make the purchase.
Bro what about the exhaust sound bcoz I love the exhaust sound too 😋
@@iambalaji1927 Likewise, baba. Good catch 😀
Hi,
Are you facing wobbling issues in your CB350RS? Some reports of wobbling issues are so scary, I'm reconsidering my choice to go for this bike in 2023.
I do not encounter any wobble issues with my motorcycle as long as I ride it like it is intended to be ridden (by holding the handlebars)
Hello I cannot decide between Honda cb300f and cb350rs, pls let me know which one should I pick as it'll be my first bike and my height is 165cm
Hello to you there.
At 165cms, I do not recommend the Honda CB350 RS. The seat is high and wide, you will struggle to plant both feet on the ground.
The CB300F is a quite capable machine - you may go for it.
I don't know why, but I'm falling in love with this mechine.
Me too, baba. Likewise 😃
Effortless cruising speed? Compare with Highness in terms of Comfort, breaking n clutch gearshift n engine refinement. Wind shield needed on highway?
Hello there.
Effortless crusing speed : 90-100kmph, at 90 the motorcycle glides like fluid.
Comfort : For me, the RS is more comfortable - wider seats and a great riding posture.
Braking, Clutch, Gearshift, Refinement : They both are the same machine.
No wind shield needed for upto 120kmph.
Hope this helps :)
Does anyone have vibrations in the handle bar and mirror at 90 to 100 kmph
After first service of my cb350rs facing vibration issues. Any suggestions pls
Sorry, mate. Mine got smoother after every service.
Bro in a dilemma between meteor vs cb350 dlx pro, can u pls suggest which one i can choose. mostly for city ride and occassional long rides..
I will pick Honda, baba.
I have ridden Meteor, and I did not like it.
Trust is honda ❤
Hello to you, Nikita.
On point. And, the reverse is true too 😅 .. Honda is Trust ❤️
@@StallionRides wahi wo 😅
@@PriyasVlogsss where are you from, Nikita? I would love to know more about your passion for motorcycles, please.
Hope you liked watching the video.
@@StallionRides yes frm Mumbai n love bikes n cars
@@PriyasVlogsss Thank you for sharing. I was in Mumbai recently during my Delhi to Goa bike trip.
I meant to ask, do you ride?
Do you drive? What do you like about motorcycles.
And, again..thank you for your time..
What do you think of suspension?
I found it very stiff.... And it gives lot of jerks and then ride becomes very uncomfortable.
By the way i have cb350
Hello there, Nilesh.
Hahaha, you know during my 2nd service, I got the suspension set up done one more level stiffer ;)
I always believe, the stiffer the better.
However, after 2 months I came back to the regular suspension set up.
You are right, the suspension feels stiff, at lower speeds, however, the same suspension soaks up almost everything at higher speeds, plus the cornering abilities are enhanced because of the stiffness of the suspension.
You could always soften the suspension, as per your convenience, however, if you tend to be a somewhat fast rider, then leave the suspension a little stiff.
Hope that helps :)
really need to ask this, so I was also finding the RS more beautiful than hgness , but some are saying hgness is better for cruising and this is like cafe racer kind, since u r mentioning Goa to Delhi ride, did u find discomfort in cruising long distances? or did u did any modification like raising handlebar ?
I did not experience any discomfort during long rides, and the handlebar is stock.
Can you please tel me what is service cost and specially after free service? What is labour charges after free servicing
@@shrikantkulkarni2992 After free services, the cost per service will be Rs2500-3000 if there are zero part replacements.
Depending on the parts replacement, the cost will add up, ex brake pads, chain set, filter, etc.
On an average Rs800-1000/hour of labor charge if you get any additional part. Depends on the time taken and complexity in doing so.
The cb350rs is a 5gear configuration. And most of the reviews I saw say the acceleration is not as good on higher ranges. Because of that 5th gear is almost useless? Is it the case? Also I saw another video where the paint came off at multiple places. Especially the silencer. And it was just one year old. Also there were rust issues. Is it so?
Hello to you, Aditya. All that you mentioned is true. Acceleration is not good on higher rev ranges as the peak power and torque is produced at low to mid rpm. That's how the machine is designed.. However, rest assured if you ride at 110kmph on the 4th gear and then apply the 5th gear you'll definitely get a good acceleration.. if you ride at speeds of 60-80kmph on the 5th gear, then you will be disappointed with the acceleration. Hope that makes sense.
The paint does not automatically come off.. If you hit the silencer at some places during your ride then yes the paint will come out.. you can always purchase a paint bottle and fix it.
Rust issues, yes..if you don't have a covered parking -- then yes.. the mud, dust and rain will cause rusting issues, after all it's metal.
However, in my humble opinion none of these matter to me as long as the machine does what I expect it to do..and that is to ride without breaking. I don't care about these petty issues..because the engine and performance is too good. Stallion has never disappointed me.. it is too reliable to even consider anything else..
Recently I did a 5400+km ride.. trust me I didn't have to invest a single Rupee on the machine except for fuel..
How often did u have to change the disc/brake pads?
Hello again.
Rear Break once at 10500 kilometres,
Front - once at 22500 kilometres.
Also, had to replace my chain-set at 22500 kilometres.
That's all :)

Thank you for sharing. You know, they say you are a faster and better rider if your breaks wear out sooner than other riders.
Hence, you are a better rider 😀

Where are you from, are you into long distance rides? How many kilometres have you done?
I am from siliguri. Longest is 200 kms up down. Work schedule is hectic
@@pintupramod Hello again 😀
I can totally relate to that, baba. Sometimes, work schedule can be too hectic.
I rode around 600 km in eco in a highway, you won't believe I get 41+ kmph.
That is awesome..
I got a tank range of over 600kms in Ladakh too.
Thanks for sharing, baba :)
If you give the throttle a bit more, you can also touch 100+ kmph

True that.
However, I think he was referring to the mileage, 41kmpl :)
Thanks for your video! Can you tell me your height? Today i visited showroom and tested H'ness and RS. Leg position for long trip better in H'ness version. You use it for that perpouse also, so why your choice is RS?
Thank you for your question, Evgenius.
Here is my answer. I love long rides because I enjoy the process of riding. I feel the happiest when I'm on a motorcycle.
The leg position on highness is definitely more suited for long rides than the RS - however, I feel more connected with the ride on the RS.
Also, I'm 178cms tall without riding boots.
I have completed 20000 km in 20 months without any trip. I think hiness is best to drive in city

Can i buy it as my first bike? I mainly have ridden a scooter for 3 years. I did learn to ride a bike 3 years ago but i dont think i remember it properly. Is it a good beginner bike for a lean guy of 55kgs?
Hello, Harun.
Yes, the CB350 RS can be your first bike. As you know how to balance on two wheels, it should not be a challenge. The weight distribution is quite nice and you don't feel the weight of the machine when it's in motion.
You have to be over 5'8, else you'll not be able to plant both feet on the ground.
Take a test ride, baba.. you'll know instantly.
Hii.. really great vlogs 👍👍.
I used to ride pulsar but need a different ride with road presence and feel good experience.
Purchased CB350RS after watching your vlogs .i have completed 1000km in a month and im very much statisfied with bike .
Only con is suspension is kind of stiff in it..i have visited bigwing for same but they said its good ..they have given me test ride of another 350RS but Suspension was same means hard.
What about your ?any suggestions.
Hello, Ankur.
Congratulations on your new motorcycle 😃
Yes, please. I agree, the suspension is on the stiffer side, however, will you believe me if I tell you that during my first service I asked my mechanic to make the suspension 1 level stiffer. I believe the stiffer the better.. it has many advantages, like better handling, better control, better high speed stability, better cornering abilities, the ground clearance will not bottom out, etcetera.
In my opinion, the suspension feels stiff only till speeds of 30-40kmph.. at higher speeds the suspension set-up is super nice. It literally glides over undulations and potholes at a moderate to high speed.
May be, you can ask your mechanic to soften the suspension by 1 level if you ride at a moderate pace.. however, I wouldn't recommend that.
I feel that in some time you'll get more used to the suspension set up - trust me it has been a life saviour for me on multiple corners 😇
Hope it helps..
And, thank you for your feedback.
Thanks for the advice and for time you have given to read the issue .
1. On my first service _suspension level 1_done.
2. I do ride in moderate speed upto 60 km/hr. in city only.
3.stiff suspension really supports in corning and give confidence.
I was going to write mail regarding suspension set-up but now i think its not meant for smooth ride in city means ..potholes or speed breaker environment..will try to adapt with my black bird(cb350 rs) suspension set-up with more rides alongside.
I was thinking suspension setup was stiff only in my bike but listening to you..now im relieved 😌
Again Really thanks alot .
@@mightywanderboy Cheers to Black Bird, baba. I'm positive that you'll get acclimatized and fall in love with the machine even more every day.
You may consider trying to soften the suspension by 1 level, it hardly takes a minute to do that. Also, please watch the mechanic while doing that..and learn..it's a simple thing and needs zero equipments :)
Try riding around with a softer suspension for a few weeks and see if that helps. Else you can always go back to the stock setting.
I'm also assuming that you don't carry a lot of weight on you ;) so suspension will feel even more stiffer.
I just got this beauty a month back and I must admit it is worth every penny🤍 Let it be the performance,the comfort level, the exhaust note, the mileage (range), that 15L tank is a saviour, I covered 200 kms early morning with a full tank, still half a tank remained which is just phenomenonal for me 😬
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Sandipan.
It is indeed a beautiful machine with many utilities 😃
I have a concern of the suspension because many were saying that it was stiff. So Kindly share your review on the suspension as my requirement is to have the best suspension. My height is 5'8
I like stiff suspension. The stiffer the better. Stiff suspensions are a blessing for high speed stability, making high speed turns, etcetera.
During my second service, I got the suspension set up 1 level stiffer but got back to default stock settings during 3rd service, at low speeds you may feel the suspension is stiff but at speeds over 50kmph, the motorcycle glides over most potholes.
Great review. 👍
What about the pillion comfort in cb350rs as seat is less wide as compare to highness. Which one is better for pillion comfort rs or highness
Hello to you, Ashish.
My pillion is genuinely a fit person.
In case your pillion isn't fit, you might want to consider, Highness.
Bro just confused in cb350 RS and hness..I want the bike mostly for city and sometimes for the long tour in weekend 's
Hello, Ankit.
Both have the same engine, baba - the difference is the riding experience. With RS you get a more involved ride, you feel more connected to the machine and the road, you’ll be able to ride spiritedly on it. The Highness offers a more relaxed ride.
Take a test ride, baba.
i have slight vibrations in foot peg in 3rd gear. Do you have that issue. also tell speed ranges for each gear
Hello to you, Naveen.
I don't experience any distracting vibrations at any speed. I feel you should not even think about vibrations, there is no other motorcycle in this category that offers more refinement..and hence I think one should be happy with the smoothness than complain about absolutely minor vibrations here and there. It's like is there any other motorcycle in this category that is more refined, you tell me?
Also, if you watch the video, you'll know exactly which gear to use at what speeds and maximum speed per gear.
My apologies for the late response. I am travelling at the moment.
what do you think the mileage for only city rides if my speed ranges apporx 30-70kmph overall.?
Hello, Ankush. It depends on multiple factors. Traffic, number of stop and go, acceleration intensity, weight (solo or with pillion), hot or cold weather, and much more.
If you are not a rash rider, you will easily extract 32kmpl+ if your ride between 30-70kmph in the city in mixed conditions, overall.
Hey
You said you had to pay 6000rs during service at 22000 km.
Can you please help me to know why it cost so much?
Hello there.
Rs. 6467 precisely. I had to get the Chain-set and the front break pads replaced during the service.
@@StallionRides I am really considering to buy CB350RS and want to know few things,
why did you need to change the chain-set?
and how much usual service cost?
I mean is it easy to maintain or not?
@@Beast.Branded.24 The oil change itself will cost you over Rs. 1500. A usual service without any replacement parts will cost you between Rs 2500-3000. The Labor charge is a little on the higher side.
It is extremely easy to maintain and absolutely reliable- You only have to visit the service centre when a service is due.
The chain-set had to be replaced due to normal wear and tear. I know a lot of users who had to replace their chain-set in under 10,000 kms, mine got replaced at over 22500kms. Depends on how you maintain it.
All the videos on my channel are on the Honda CB350 RS, feel free to check any video for more information on this machine. Thanks, man.
Have you ridden the speed 400, could you tell how these 2 compare with each other in terms of the attributes you takked about
Hello, Vipul. I have not ridden the Speed 400.
Speed 400 felt like an insane amount of torque, the bike isn't that enjoyable in the city as it feels too powerful and torquey personally. But the cb 350 RS was in control and I actually enjoyed it..
Guys, please suggest good long lasting disk pads, chain sprocket for honda cb350. Hereafter i do not want to visit bigwing service center. I have found local mechanic. The service fees seems to be higher side.
Hello, Shashank. A subscriber recommended Versah Brake Pad, I haven’t tried them. You might want to check them out.
Can a skinny beginner ride this bike or is it too heavy and cumbersome??
Hello to you. What a nice question, baba. Honestly, I wouldn't know, I am not an expert. However, In my opinion, a slim/skinny beginner who has spent multiple years of their childhood on a bicycle should be able to manage riding the CB350 RS. While it will feel heavy at times, their previous experience lays a good foundation for handling it. With practice, the body and the mind get used to the weight.
Hope that helps :)
Bro I have seen many users saying there's wobbling issue in cb350 after 10000 km riding did you face any of it
@@pgunknown In my experience, if you maintain the correct tyre pressure and ride with both hands on the handlebar, you will not experience any wobbling issues.
Hi man, how many kms you've covered so far in this beast ? How's the engine performance now ?
31.8k km so far.
Engine performance has been consistent since I got it. If you are looking for a fast motorcycle, this is not the one. You could easily cruise at 100-110 kmph without a vibration though.
@@StallionRides great bro

Hi Stallion rides,
I'm buying my first bike, can you suggest which one to buy. Hness vs RS
Hello, Praveen.
Both motorcycles have the same engine. The difference would be, the rider triangle. Highness offers a relaxed riding posture. RS offers a slightly enhanced riding experience. Also, in my opinion the RS looks heavier than the Highness in appearance.
Take a test ride, please. You'll know instantly when you sit on the saddle and hold the handlebars.
@@StallionRides thanks 👍👍
Bro,2 months back i bought the highness.first service is done.am not getting the speed which you are mentioning.first gear around 20,second 40 and 3rd 70,4th 100 and top speed achieved is 110 at 5th.
Engine is getting stressed out at high revvs.minor vibrations are also felt in the handle bar and footpeg.
Hello, Sandeep.
Thank you for sharing, however that's quite strange. For a fact I rarely use the 5th gear, if I'm using the 5th gear I'm always at a speed of above 110/120kmph..
Are you getting only a speed of 20 and 40 respectively on 1st and 2nd gear? That's too low.
You know, in my case honestly sharing, during the engine breaking I used to try variable throttle inputs, and used to do quick bursts of 100kmph as well and let the throttle go (engine braking) for maximum smoothening of engine and gear parts ( I watched some western RUclips videos on engine braking and tried to follow the same)
To this date I have not had vibration issues.
I am not sure if this would work but when I ride a Honda and it vibrates - I ride it even harder and somehow in some time the vibrations fade..
You might want to try this, try riding up to a speed of 40kmph in the first gear, ignore the vibrations and let the throttle go, once the engine braking makes the motorcycle come to a speed of 10kmph, again accelerate to 40kmph and let the throttle go, try that 5-6 times on 1st gear, then do a 40kmph on 1st gear and use the second gear to pull it all the way to 65-70kmph(ignore the vibrations) and let the throttle go(engine braking).. Do this 5-6 times. Similarly, repeat the process on every gear, reach the max speed on every gear and let the throttle go - you will need to patiently do this, best time would be morning or late night on an empty stretch of road ( I somehow feel that this should solve your problem)
Just sharing my thoughts, baba...Totally personal.
And, thank you for watching.
@@StallionRides thanks bro,will try that

how much mileages are you getting in banglore traffic bro?
How did it perform in high altitude i mean was there loss of power or any thing of that sort. Starting problems in cold mornings.
Hello there, Vikrant.
Never had any loss of power, the gearing is different, you have to keep the engine on the right rev range. If you use the 1st gear till a speed of 30 in high altitude, and 2nd gear till a speed of 60..I promise you'll not feel any lack of power, the motorcycle just pulls.
One press on the start button and it goes boom, ever since day 1. It works in all weather conditions- cold, snow, even when it continuously stands in the rain for days at length.
Honestly, I never experienced a single mechanical issue with the motorcycle.
Hey, thank you for watching :)
@@StallionRides just saw one of the vlogs earlier this year where rider had power problems at high altitude, i checked with the dealership they informed that earlier there was a problem but now it has been resolved , thanks to you for your reply.
@@vikrantkaundal9148 Yes, please. Honda did an ECU update some time after the launch and that was fixed.
A suggestion, please. If you use the engine kill switch, then be mindful to allow it 3-5 seconds before pressing the start button. As the kill/start button is integrated a lot of times people press them both together without allowing the pause- this is a major cause of loss of power in high altitude. Just sharing.
You have been going on an on about how this machine is a competition for Royal Enfield and for some reason it is still nowhere to be seen on road.
Hello to you, Sushant.
I'm super glad that it is that way. Less RS on the roads, maintains the exclusivity, even after 2+ years.
Also, do you see a lot of Maruti on the roads or Skoda? Doesn't mean Maruti's engineering is superior than Skoda.
Ever heard the concept of herd mentality?
@@StallionRides it is not about herd mentality but availabililty...and also the trust in the brand and its presence in the market. I guess Honda is known for Activa and that is its identity.

Bro, how different is the highness from the RS? If someone is considering the highness, is he going to miss out on anything that the RS offers?

This is an interesting question. You will miss out on the riding stance of the RS ( it's not sporty, yet sporty) - RS offers more connect with the machine, better handling, cornering and the rear set foot-pegs inspire confidence on twisties.
Plus, the RS has a fresh look ( I honestly love how the RS looks in person).
You'll miss out on the huge tyres that grip the road so well..
Both are in essence the same machine - the riding dynamics make all the difference for me.
