- Hello,
This motorcycle has been around for a while and it has been reviewed 1000s of times already but we decided to have a go on it to see why this Honda has not lived up to sales potential or expectations. Hope you enjoy watching this video. Cheers!

I think I’m one of the few who have shifted from RE to CB350 and it’s been an amazing journey so far. It has fixed all issues that RE had and it offered me something that RE could not have, Reliability and refinement. Also the engineers who work on my bike are very knowledgeable they are good at accurately assessing. Yes it’s not designed for low end but mid and top are pure joy. I honestly feel customers need to demand more from RE, I feel like honda made this bike just to show RE how it’s done. Some how Honda feels more trustworthy 😅. I absolutely love your videos and it was very interesting to see what you had to say about CB 350. Cheers 🍻
Thanks for the detailed comment. 👍 Yes we'll plan a shoot of the CB350 Highness too.
Hey, even I bought the CB Highness last month. Just wanted to know how we improve the low-end punch?
Nice to hear your experience and happy to hear that you are enjoying your CB. Cheers!
try switching off throttle control and the gearing is very different compared with RE bikes so you'll have to push it in lower gears the bike can take it@@shashanksrivathsav
Same here, buddy...
This is my first bike, 10,000 km clocked on it and as you said, you can never go wrong with a Honda. Honestly speaking I am not a fan of the looks and sound of a RE Classic and bullet, never appealed to me. It feels slow, laid back and doesn't get your heart racing when you twist that throttle. The 350RS on the other hand appeals to a more Adrenaline seeking audience, gets me excited every time I hear that crackling and popping exhaust and the instant torque at the slightest twist of the throttle. It's more of a scrambler and retro mashup. As you rightly said, if you compare this with a RE classic, the Indian emotional connect with 'Dug Dug' can influence the buying decision for most people. But if anyone knows how much better Honda actually is, it's a no brainer decision. The bike was actually a huge hit in the Japanese market. It's called the GB350 there. The customization market is huge in Japan for this bike. This is honestly the best review so far, way better than the Enfield paid, biased auto journalists. Overdrive ahem ahem...... Will bring my bike in for service to your garage once the warranty service period is over. Cheers!
Thanks for the message. Well said. Cheers!
The Hunter falls in the same bag, and is a wonderful bike too. A comparison between these two would be great.@@bigbearbangalore
@sciencegeek4868 yes that would be a good comparo. Will check on this possibility. Thanks.
Hello Sir , Need ur valuable insight on any heating in engine area or foot pegs & 2 .) Front fender is too small for mud and rain water splashing , any solution ??
There's always an 'if' and 'but' for every bike. It is more of an individual preference and taste. For example, I wanted a neatly refined and reliable 300-400 cc motorcycle with modern elements and yet retro. To buy my first bike ever, Royal enfield was a bit too common on the streets for me. I fumbled on the Honda CB 350 RS one day and went ahead and got it. I absolutely love the machine. It is sooo good. Excellent road presence and feels great to ride.
Agree! And we shared our set of 'ifs' and 'buts' and like you said it's a personal preference. Cheers!
Great to see you two back. Love the way you review and discuss bikes from a riders perspective
Many thanks. 🙏
Hey guys loved the video!! All the things you said about the bike is soo true. I have hness cb350 and so far I am loving it. I am very new to motorcycles (5k+ km only) and watching some experienced enthusiast like you guys helps me a lot learning more about these machines. I just want to thank you for the content. ❤
Thanks. Best wishes.
@@ashutoshkhedwal1280 cb350 can be a good first motorcycle. Its practical and really easy to handle. Power is not that intimidating. In fact I taught my friend riding on this motorcycle. The weight of the motorcycle is really manageable. When you start rolling you won't feel the weight at all. I ride mainly in cities and on thing to keep in mind is that you frequent gear changes are sometimes required, but on highway this motorcycle shines. Fuel economy is also good, I get around 32-35kmpl in city and 35+ on highways.
Even I shifted from RE Electra 350 to CB 350 RS for its fabulous features as Slipper Clutch, Refined Engine, Build Quality, Japanese Engine, 4 Valve, Dual Channel ABS, LED lights, DRL's, Scrambler Look, Butter Smooth Acceleration, what more we want from This CB350 RS. This bike is actually Underrated, Honda should market it well. This is an extraordinary machine to own it.
Yes agree!! 👍
Its 2 valve 😢
@globetrotter46o that's OK as long as there is decent performance.
Cb350 is 4 valve
U are correct
@@alive_to_yum
We Indians have been hardwired to think that only Royal Enfield is entitled to make long stroke singles. If Yamaha happened to launch the SR400 (which has a legacy of its own) in India, I'm sure it will get the same criticism like the CB350 (not from buyers, but from auto journalists). It is obvious that no one criticizes the Ninja 300 for being a parallel twin like the R3. And the Imperiale 400 is a good bike in its own right. It is always better to have options so that the bar is raised furthermore. If you need performance, it is already there in the form of CB300R. And we all know that a twin cylinder 300 can never be priced below 4 lakhs today.
If the CB engine had some bottom end punch and shorter gearing it will not receive the criticism perhaps.
@@bigbearbangalore that would make it even more similar to the Enfield in character.
Yes and it would make it easier to ride in urban and hilly conditions.
I think it’s more about the fact that Honda is a legacy manufacturer, and if they wanted to make a classic or a retro motorcycle, they could’ve taken something from their own history, instead they chose to compete with RE by trying to make something similar to that. Which is not necessary at all. Honda has a rich history of some amazing motorcycles, they are the ones that gave us the Unicorn, which was a revolution in chassis and suspension when it came. So maybe instead of trying to copy RE and fail to steal sales, they can actually make a Honda and automatically steal sales from RE. Just my two cents though. It’s still a very good motorcycle, and I’m pretty sure the customers who bought it are happy with it.
@MrSordan well said. 👍
Just two chill gentlemen having fun conversations on a Sunday morning over a Honda bike…loved it Sir.❤
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
I feel the video leans towards your opinion. I really like my CB350 RS because I wanted a bike that looks new but still has that old-fashioned charm. This bike perfectly combines style, nostalgia, and how it handles.
Yes. Everyone leans and shares their opinion. 😊 Like you've just done. Thanks for your comment. 👍 Cheers!
agree
Fantastic review! Natural and very well put together. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Seriously!! best review I've ever heard, perfect ❤
Thanks!
Much awaited review!
Thanks.
If these 350 twins only had 6 gears n 26-30 bhp, they would have made their place like Speed 400.
True, if they manage to increase BHP and change gearing it will be there to stay
Yes agree. And all ifs and buts. The fact is, this is what it is now.
There is an option available. My Big Wings Service Engineer said that there is a performance pack available which will increase the power of the motorcycle to 28. But as it is a custom pack it will cancel the Warrenty. Hence my suggestion is that you update it after two years.
I believe it is 18K+GST
Powertronics?
@@chinmaychiplunkar in June I got 6 year warranty, now they r giving 10 year warranty 😛. If we decide for probably we can do in 6 months itself after making sure it has no issues
I think Honda made this honda ka bullet show RE, how it's done. Whatever RE lacks in, honda has perfected it. The ride is such a joy. And I think many riders would feel the same. Good video 👍
Agreed 👍
Also cb 350 is the reason RE step up and introduced jseries engine orther wise they had a monopoly with that shit unreliable vibrator engine. But our gawar people will still buy it in the name of "feeling"
I liked the sound of RE Bullet from childhood but when i started riding bikes i rode my cousin brothers RE classic many times and i didn't feel like what i had imagined. It was super heavy, vibrations all around, maneuvering was hectic in traffic conditions and once it got punctured on a hilly terrain and with no shops near by i had the most difficult day dragging it till the puncture wala. The bike was difficult to handle over the speed of 80km/hr.
Now to the present i heard similar sound but with a different body and brand. I had a dream of owning a bike from childhood. Now that i am working man i was thinking of buying a dominar 400.But i dunno how i somehow went for a test ride of Scram400 on the other side was this bike the honda CB350 RS. I took the test ride of Scram, Dominar, Hunter, Meteor, and CB350 RS. Now i am a very happy owner of the latter. Sounds great, Mileage is great, maneuvering great, riding position is great for adults on a younger side, plus Honda is reliable than many other brands. It's 178 kgs but feels nimble as the weight distribution is awesome. It looks so gentle but also is an eye turner and classy. Its an allrounder beauty - Touring, drag race, crusing, sailing and also off roading ti some extend!
The only cons are :
Mud splashes due to short fenders
The horns are useless in highway
So is the headlight, and yes the long stroke feels akward at first but after sometime when you get its hang youll be more than fine as it has slipper clutch which makes this problem a very small one. I brought this about 2months back when all the Hype was about the Triumph SPEED. BELIVE ME I AM VERY DELIGHTED WITH MY DECISION.
To all of you who are confused just take a test ride of all your fav bikes. You will instantly get connected with which you shall ride in future.
NOTE:IF you think im bluffing u can check my page. Cheers hope this helps you on your journey to owning your ride❤🎉
Well said. Thanks for fhe detailed comment.
Very well said. Sailing on the same boat. Test rode everything from speed 400 to even the new KTM DUKE250. The connect that Honda CB350 RS was instant. Going with it. 👍🏾
Thanks, in fact even I took the bike after watching this video among others!

@@bigbearbangalore One major reason why I like this channel is the conversation between you two guys which is funny and actually very informative at the same time

Very nicely explained... Bind between you two is the next level.... Sign if long sprwad friendship and many common interests... Kepp it up... Cheers...🍻

I've always known Honda motorcycles to be best in reliability. Great review of such a beautiful machine. Could you possibly make similar video on yezdi scrambler.
Yes they are reliable and durable. And will check on this possibility of the Yezdi Scrambler.
Nice life lesson I have learned from your words
Thank you ❤
🙏
They prepared for UCE platform, RE came up with J series, that is a game changer.
Yes probably.
I think the long stroke is provided so as to improve mileage and heat management but the drawback is they compromise on power but its okay for Indian road conditions... Motorcycle as a whole is a excellent stuff where it is difficult to point out flaws. My opinion is they need to improve in their gear ratio.
Perhaps. And for Indian road conditions, low end performance is more important.
Beautiful machine + a reliable Work Horse ‼️‼️🌟🌟🌟
That it is!
Any luck going +1 or 2 teeth on the rear sprocket or the opposite on the front? I love reviews from these older men, they absolutely know what they speak of, having driven the twin CB 350s of the past
I don't have info on that sprocket change. Perhaps max a +2 on the rear or -1 on the front can help but like I said, not sure if that will help.
Hello Sir , Need ur valuable insight on any heating in engine area or foot pegs & 2 .) Front fender is too small for mud and rain water splashing , any solution ??
Mud splash really don't know. May be ok but will know in monsoon.
Heat is quite manageable.
Wonderful review❤, i have booked a CB350. But still worried about wobbling issues earlier owners faced, any update on this whether Honda Sorted it in new models?
Thanks. No news of a resolution.
Thanks ...eagerly waiting for your thoughts on this machine...🙏
Hope it's useful. And, the best is to take test rides. Nothing can replace that first hand experience.
@@bigbearbangalore indeed...you covered all the points...
🙏👍
@bigbearcustoms Can you help me choose between the KTM ADV. 250 & the Honda H'ness?
I want to go for the adv 250 but my dad is rooting for the honda. Though both are very different in aspects, can you help me out?
It's your choice as to what style and character you like. I'll pick the 250adv.
@@bigbearbangalore exactly. I wanted to go for that one too after driving my friend's 390 Adv.
Absolutely love my Hness CB350 but you rightly said that Honda should have made an engine with it's own character. Big problem is the wobbling issue won't go. Started at around 7000 kms and now I'm at 20000+ kms and I've learnt to live with it. Big Wing Pune service has been very helpful and supportive but issue remains. Some have found switching out the stock MRF tyres to a different brand helps but it's very difficult to get the same front & rear tyres due to the weird tyre spec combination of front & rear. Front size is like a scrambler or adv tourer so all knobby tyres are available and rear size is your regular classic bike size so mostly street tyres are available. You can get away with fitting tyres from different manufacturers and there are a few options to either go both wheels knobby or street tyres but I have been advised to find the same tyre due to the extent of my bikes wobbling issue. Also I find the braking balance between front & rear a bit weird when it's not a similar tyre. Since October 2023 I've been trying to hunt for such tyres but with no luck. Only stock MRF are available but they seem to cause the wobbling issue after a few thousand kms. Reise moto is coming up with tyres in this size which I've ordered through my local dealer since December but they still haven't delivered them. Every week they say they will deliver next week but they don't. I hope this issue gets solved as I love my bike but I'm fed up. I keep thinking of selling it but the good service people and my love for the bike stops me everytime. Triumph scrambler 400X is pulling me hard but I keep on resisting it as I won't give up on my bike unless I've exhausted all options.
Thanks for the detailed comment. Much appreciated.
The Scrambler comes with the MRF tyres. And am switching to Reise.
Could you pls suggest a good mechanic outside big wing or rather company servicing?
Sorry not familiar with any
We needed a RE from Honda , so that the engine would be refined and it is , cb350 rs is a great motorcycle, it is absolutely wonderful.
Yes it is.
Getting way too confused between hunter 350 and cb350rs, the new Hue edition colours are luring me towards cb350rs but after listening to reviews saying it lacks identity, idk what to do, any help will be appreciated!
Commuting only then Hunter. Planning some long rides also then CB.

Please do a review of Honda CB 300f , I would also like to know if fitting a center stand is possible.
Will check on this possibility. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@bigbearbangalore 🥰🥰🥰
Great discussion valid points, but the RE comparison is subjective, as a owner of the CB for the past 2 years, it's an amazing all round back with less credit given to the handling and the off road capability.
Very well summed up, the juxtaposition of the CB350 RS is what makes it unique.
Guess Honda had to not do much tweaks to the highness to gift us this motorcycle.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Agree.
I've posted a deyailed ride review several months ago on the CB350 Highness.
Superb video as always
🙂🙏
I have a Royal Enfield Meteor 350 & I've had a great run with it. It's an absolute joy to ride with loads of torque. It's great around town-very nimble. It's great on the open road & superb off road. No issues with the Riyal Enfield at all-it's a very simple engine-air cooled-2 valve-long stroke engine with superb torque so you don't have to rev it to get any performance out of it like you would the Honda.
Great to hear! Cheers!
3 years of ownership of cb highness ...its engine is gem and superior performance with high speed stability
Good to hear! Thanks for sharing.
What is the paid service cost
speed 400 is not available in bihar Nor x440 till now
i am 5’11” i need retro kind of bike
in 350 cc what all the options for me ?
CB or RE cos they are bigger to accommodate taller riders.
Hi sir, it was great that to see you sharing your opinion about CB350RS. I rode this bike 7k + kms in last 7 months. First of all as you said the bottom end is ok ok, but once you get to know the strength it doesnt bother at all. Still havent faced wobbling issues at higher speed, as only rode 2 times at 140kmph😅
Good to hear. Thanks for sharing.
I bought It 2months back...i really loved the machine...its like a butter smooth... who Ever thinking to buy 350 Series bike just go with this #CBS350rs.
Good choice.
@@bigbearbangalore Thank you sir☺
Honda could have really bought their XR400 single air cooled engine which has around 35 bhp and put it in a streetbike and an adventure bike. That engine is very durable and will last a very long time.
Yes, and pricing & emission concerns perhaps that have stalled those plans.
Great review Lads.
Thanks!
I too own cb350rs,2 service done already and its been osm journey, very satisfied with the bike, with performance and seriously in love with that smoothest engine
👍👍👍
I bought Honda highness last Saturday it's engin is so smooth... Awesome bike. This is my first bike hope it will be good for me in all terms.
Best wishes.
Superb analysis sir.
Pls make a review of Honda hness cb 350.
Thanks. Will plan.
Fell in love on my 1st test ride. 7000 km completed in 8 months.
Great 👍

@@sandeepaatrey9512 Haven't felt much heating issue. Long time in heavy traffic you can feel a little warm if you are wearing shorts otherwise it's no issue at all.
The front fender is very small, you can buy carbo racing fender extender and that will solve the issue
@@amanshah1611 Hello Bro thanks for the immediate response, but what about rear fender , is it sufficient in stock bcoz in rainy season mud/slush/water might splash from back side also right , plz let me know if u have installed someting !!
Could anyone recommend an exhaust for the CB350 RS that'll reduce the decibel levels?
Reduce? That'll be tough to find.
From being a die hard fan of RE, my whole perspective changed after buying the CB350 RS. While the statement "Honda kah Bullet sound weird" but that was the very factor for me to change to Honda and now i understand what people mean by refinement. 😅 s..t i have wasted a decade due to the obsession i had on RE.
Good for you. Cheers!
Hello Sir , Need ur valuable insight on any heating in engine area or foot pegs & 2 .) Front fender is too small for mud and rain water splashing , any solution ??
Going to purchase my first bike. Loved the test ride and the looks and feel of the bike. Should I go for it? Is it worth it in 2024?
Or is it better to go in for the RE Scram 411?
If you loved it, buy it.
Any news of Honda Adv in 300 - 500cc launch ?
Nothing I have heard. The CRF300L may never make it here due to high pricing. Let's see.
Hello.. hopefully u will reply 😅.. I am planning to buy this motorcycle but there are few things that I really need to have some clarification so that is why I am asking you..
1) What can I do to stop mud splashing all over me if I ever buy this one? (aftermarket mud guards for front and rear does it really do their job?)
2) There is rusting problem in the exhaust pipe, can it be solved?
3) And the last I have heard about the Wobbling Issue.. is it really true?
Motorcycles splash some mud.
Am not familiar with the rust issue.
Yes the wobbling is an issue with some of these vehicles.
@@bigbearbangalore thank you 😊
What’s the comfortable cruising speed?
The bike can do 100 to 120 kmph.
In a Dilemma between 350Rs 400 and Duke 250old Please suggest
Take test rides and choose.
Your pick? CB350 highness or Meteor 350? Also, the reasoning for it.
Another question - I have to do delhi - jaipur (260km) up-down 2-3x a month, its a decent highway. Budget is max 3-3.5L on road. Looking at Adventure 390X, The CB350 highness, Meteor 350, the upcoming Triumph scram.
Wait for Himalayan 450.
Between the CB and Meteor, the CB will be my choice. And my top pick amongst all will be the 390X.

Good to hear about your background. Thanks for sharing. How did you support customers who had such issues?
On Point 😊

1:36 trying to make a RE bro said but at what aspects? Can you make it clear. Only think matches with re is that "350" name rest engine is far superior, gearing style is different, traction control, better brakes/tyres, slipper clutch, better mileage. So how is that they tried to make it RE ? Or is it that only RE is allowed on 350 segment ?
Yes technically the CB is superior. Agree.
It's interesting how Royal Enfield, when they recaptured the Indian market, chose not to ape the Harley which is an icon in the long stroke market. They brought the twins but had a 650 engine, and capitalised in the gap between the RE 350 cc and the Harley's 750 cc engines. It is not just a success story of staying in the market with confidence and improving their product line, but also what type of products to make and how they should be positioned. Kudos to the team!
Thanks for the comment. Regards.
Can you also review the Honda Hines 350 as well sir ?
Will check on this.
Is it good second hand buy around 20k runned,
Why not. If its in decent shape and you like it, go for it.
Do 2024 Duke 390 review... we want to see your perception on that....
Will check on this possibility. Thanks.
Sir should i buy a honda rs 350 or re bullet / meteor??
Ive test rode all three.
My question is whether this honda is a better quality vehicle than re??
I personally like bullet's riding positiin and sound. Gear is butter smooth in cb 350 rs. Also the back tyre size attracted me.
My first bike, pls advice
Buy the one you enjoy riding the most.
This bike is smooth and it feels nice to ride this bike. I brought it yesterday

Is it a good bike for beginners who’s switching from activa 😅
🙏🏻
which is better? cb 350rs or triumph speed 400?
Depends on what characteristic you like. Laid back reliable retro thumper or a light, revvy and lively motorcycle.
Sir review commuter bikes please your review is so nice. And informative 😊😊
Will try.
Vstorm 250 or yezdi adventure which will be best
I prefer the V-Strom 250sx
Planning to buy this... and now confused with speed 400 and cb350rs
Ride them and choose. They are quite different to each other.
For daily usage go with CB 350
They are on point Honda forgot the prime necessary for retro bike like this ,instead they came up with a RE blueprint ,still they could have given power more torque ,made it a Honda rather than a RE staple,and expensive as well
If Honda be Honda they can do better perhaps. Anyway.... good try.
Why are the 400s Motocycles Not available in Europe !?? 🤔
Too small and underpowered for those roads perhaps?
If Budget is not a constraint , should I go with Honda cb350 rs or Hunter 350 ????
Definitely RS
Actually they deliver different performance characteristics. Quite different. Depends on what you seek. One is a city slicker while the other is an open road mile muncher.
How does this compare to the Honda CB350 Hiness??
This is nimbler and feels lighter.
Oh oh oh this is how a experienced guy provide a review

Well well hmm im 35 very very confused took ride of hness n rs both…. Engine hits me very good but which to pick rs or hness 😢
One more round of test rides? 🙂
@@bigbearbangalore 👍🏻 yep
i had the same dilemma..chose the highness for better comfort
@@TheRoamingDelhiite thank you👍🏻
They need to put more lower torque, cruiser sitting position, refined engine should sound from silencer as a Honda signature sound. Rest is good.
👍
Maybe its for people like me, Long stroke single cyl in a youthful looking bike. It has character too. Its stoic but young.
Yes sure! Why not!
Whatever they have made, it's a solid product . Precise engine, i would say it as mini bonnie.
Yes! Mini Bonnie without bottom end grunt. 🙂
Any video on jawa 42 2.1?
Not yet. May be sometime in the future.
Waiting for the ronin scrambler project 😄
Budget constraints have delayed this indefinitely. :-(
2yrs back there was no RE J-Series engines insted they had a vibrating engines. Also bullets was too common and everywhere. Then there comes cb350 RS a scrambler styled honda with some bullet charecteristics and refinement. It was an easy decision to buy one. Now I'm done 30k+ kms and still having fun with this mechine. But today, I don't know if it is value for money or not.we have more affordable Hunter 350s. But if you want a reliable refined motorcycling experience go for it. Honda is Honda
Can't go wrong with a Honda.

@@sandeepaatrey9512 Hi, I never had any heating issue. It's a naked motorcycle and air cooled so in slow trafic u will feel heating on your leg, its very common. 2. Get highnes's fender full kit including clamps and extendable mudflap.
It will cost u around ₹3k at bigwing. Ask for full black or u have to paint chrome to black.
Love this bike

Why Honda Ka Bullet? Enormously reliability.
Honda ownership is a such a peace of mind
Name given by the public.
And yes, it's quite reliable. But not so great. Has issues too.
Nitpicking‼️It's best in the segment , powerful (30nm ) but economical! Light but has biggest range in segment ( 15L tank), Modern but retro 😆🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Ya tho royal Enfield start their market way back honda came in to the field,haonda engine were all ways smooth, reliable,and trendy features (fual gauge)
I did drove both of them CB is just classic
Can u make a similar vid on ronin😅
I feel its gets very less credits than it supposed to be 😂
Wt u feel?
Yes agree. Ronin does not get enough credit, true. Will check on this possibility of a video. Thanks.
Honda already had a CB350 back in the seventies itself although not in the guise of a single cylinder bike...so probably it's not right to say that it's mimicking the RE...Honda's pedigree needs no mention
OK and if so I wonder why they did not mimic that 70s twin CB?
@@bigbearbangalorethat would have driven up the price ...and Honda is very notorious for overpricing their bikes as it is😅
But they lost the lovely twin which is the CB's soul.
They should make a twin CB for maybe a larger segment, say 500cc. That would be great.
Yes they should.
Perhaps for the reliability Bosky 😅 reliability plus the RE sound.
👍🙂
Ive cancelled the meteor 350
After having ansour experience service side on my interceptor
But finally after owning and riding the 350RS for 45K
It never felt dull
You need to redline the sh*t out of every gear when you want to ride hard or just crusie at city speeds when you are in city limits
- Refinement is 💯
- Brakes, Seat and suspension are the main focus areas which honda should improve on
- Other thing is transmission/gearing ratio could be improved to make it a better performer at low end And higher end
Thanks for sharing.
I am a city 90 percent rider and 10 percent highway rider. And I want to buy a bike. Pls suggest me in between classic 350/ honda rs350/ honda hyness 350.
Pls suggest me
Test ride and choose which style of engine power delivery you enjoy more.
Its started on a wrong note and remained stuck to it. Its not honda ka bullet. Its more like Spender and Unicorn ka bada bhai. Also all the bikes you mentioned have their own history. They have tried to compete with Royal enfield in india but not copied it. Ever since the launch of highness 2020 the bikes have remained same except fot few cosmetic changes. Where has royal enfield had multiple new bikes, change of platforms and engines, re-launches, iski topi uske sir etc. So its open for everyone to see that which product actually met the satisfaction of its buyers
There is no right or wrong perspective. It's a different perspective to yours. Thanks for sharing your perspective. Cheers!
Lovely

Sir, waiting for Harley Davidson X440 review.
Yes am waiting for the availability of the test ride vehicle soon.
Somehow they cooked a fried rice instead of spaghetti, using Indian masala.😂
Tandoori pizza 😀
CN you review interceptor 650 2023. I want here some comments from a knowledgeable person like you...
Will check on this possibility. Thanks.
In Jan 2024 which bike should be best for person height 6.2
Honda CB350
Classic 350
Java 42
Harley X440
Triump 400
None of the above!! 😀
Bullet 350 is worth a test ride. Try it.
@@bigbearbangalore Sure vl try 👍🏼👍🏼
Sir I am planning to buy this bike but i have reservation because of wobbling issue associated with this bike. Can you address this issue?
I've heard of this on a few machines. Don't know the details.
37 k kms done CB350 RS , no wobbling whatsoever 👍👍‼️
guys ride a honda unicorn at normal speed you will not hear the engine at all. that being said i shifted from Honda to RE a decade back, you are spot on in identifying that it lacks the low end pull of enfield , 3 times cb riders tried to check with my hunter , all three times the hunter upset them with more pickup and agility in traffic , its just when u have a long open stretch then finally they can catch up. but honda fans still think it is a better engine in terms of pickup😂😂😂
U r lying..
Agree on the way the CB picks up speed.
@@osho782 hunters even upsets dominaar and int650 is thick moving traffic, it picks speed faster to 60 and/ handles very nimbly in tight traffic too.
Far better engine than Jseries tappet filled noisy engine. Even with tall gearing of cb350, hunter can't match with the first gear pickup and sadly falls behind in drag race. Both are 350 but the swiftness, stability, refinement and performance can't match with hondas cb engine. It's a next level bike overall
@dinesh2759 yes, the CB engine is super refined.
Cb350rs vs scrambler 400x in terms of refinement and reliability?
Equally good. But they are very different motorcycles and engines and performance. Not an appropriate comparison.
@@bigbearbangalore thanks, on road price difference not much so really confusing ☹️
Test ride navj to back to know more.
It's like Zarine khan. May be a fabulous actress but ain't no Katrina.
😀
Both can't act though. So can't even call them actress 😂
They DID put the right engine on balance. Based on your questions on its purpose, you are looking this thru the RE lens. It is a good machine, better than the Hd440 jatka gaadi!
Ok
