Khamma Ghani. 🙏 So which one’s your pick - Honda or RE?
Honda gives alot features
Honda anyday
CB 350
Indeed classic 😘
Some rumours are coming up that brezza 2022 will launch in Jan 2022 .
Using h'ness for last 1 year, great bike from honda. Ride quality, performance, superb confident braking and the road presence it gives. A real head turner. Also I'm getting mileage of 43 in long rides..
@Sumit Bhatnagar Try to do a long stretch at steady 70kmph in 5th gear. You'll get 40-45 kmpl tank full to tank full
@Sumit Bhatnagar 40 kmph is rehta I git after 1st service on tank empty to tank empty (3 liters 122 kns run up )
@BecozBecoz vibrations should decrease with use . Only after relative huge mileage vibes creep in
@Sumit Bhatnagar he is talking about long rides,iam also getting 40-43 in long rides,normal rides iam getting around 36-38
@Sumit Bhatnagar I have got 37.9 in city, calm-little aggressive riding makes good mileage possible , and many others have got mileage in between 32-45, varies for everyone
Why just for youngsters. I am 53 and rode CB350 in Western ghats covering 1750 KM in a week long ride during this Christmas Holidays. Loved the confidence it gave in ghat roads and highways. Once you get used to the gears, it becomes your friend.

Highness is better for city rides. Despite bigger wheelbase, it can be tilt easily which makes it easier to take U turns. Its less weight also helps.
Bilkul galat ho bhai re best ha highness k gear ratio bekar ha city or hills ma baar baar gear change krna padta hai
@@shubham-uc6ihthere's no need to change gears that frequently. In fact I found more gear changing in RE. Tall gears means not much gear changing. In traffic 1st gear and second gear and. Normal city riding 3rd and 4th. 5th on highways. We still get excellent milage.
@@itsourlife that's subjective and ride experience..
Speaking objectively, give a new rider then you will see..
@@professorarjun1234 when I wrote that I was like new rider as I hadn't ridden a motorcycle in 5 years after a terrible crash. Now after riding for 3 months I know what I said is true. Tall gearing one should not change gears just because engine sound is at higher RPM. I've done 110 in 3rd gear without the limiter kicking in means it's still able to go higher. Problem is in India we aren't used to tall gearing concepts. Same thing with my friend's BMW bike 1st gear can take upto 40kmph. Not really needed to change gears.
After completing 3000 Kms on my Highness, I can safely say that it is an excellent bike to ride in the city as well. The tall gearing needs some getting used to but man, the precision with which each gear slots is so satisfying! The torque and pull is a joy to use and the exhaust note is the best among any single cylinders I've heard in my life. The sweet Triumph-like whistling, coupled with a heavy bass and thump makes up for a beautiful riding experience.
The motorcycle handles beautifully and is very nimble for its weight.
I've had dozens of people enquire about it (and praise the looks) ranging from traffic signals to petrol pumps. Heck, I've even seen guys stop their bikes to check my parked Highness.
For anyone who has doubts regarding this motorcycle, I would suggest going for a proper test ride. Maybe this motorcycle isn't made for you but the only way to find out is - go for a test ride!
had a guy follow me for 1km to ask me about what bike im riding. "Honda ki Bullet" xD
City me mileage kitna deta he? r maintanence me per year kitna kharcha hota he?
@@sumitava1374 City mileage is around 35 Km/l. Yearly maintenance to kucch bhi nahi hai, bas regular service karwate raho so that maintained rahe. Service charges are also very less - around Rs. 1500 - 2000.

Suspension is worst in Honda hyness
@@gowthamlabs suspension is good for long rides. Royal Enfield bikes soft suspension causes back pain in long rides. Also it's problematic and gives less confidence while leaning around the corner

Own a Honda Highness CB 350. It's definitely a new level from classic. What it provides should not be compared with classic. Retro in look, sporty in feel. Very nimble, weight distribution is great. Rode 5000 km in less than 3 months ! That's how I am addicted to this bike

@@AJEETKUMAR-un9ktbro confused between cb highness and rs 350. Your suggestion for city ride and occasional long ride
I own Honda H’ness from Nov-20 never had a bike from RE but I have heard many complain about the service provided by RE many says its pathetic and I get good mileage minimum of 30 no matter where you ride
Only thing I would complain about Honda is it doesn’t have showroom everywhere in the country like RE
One more thing about H’ness is it’s the same bike sold in Japan as well
Nicely explained, I am owning RE Stealth Black. Both bike are best. Honda H'ness will definitely can compete with RE classic.
always hiness over classic, as its more refined, more powerful, better braking, sound(stock) and honda is honda, getting a milage of 44
small review after 2k kms
Just saw H'ness today nearby and that was it! Love at first sight 💟
Bohot hi badhiya explanation. Aaj Tak kisi ne bhi itna accha illustration nahi kiya. I was also confused between these two but now it's crystal clear which one to go for!! I appreciate your wisdom Bro, thanks for your efforts.
Being a Mechanical engineer and a designer in automotive field, I have following observations.
I was looking for a family bike for city rides mostly with a flat (horizontal seat), circular headlamp and retro-like + premium design (not like 100-150cc bikes).
After exploring lot of bikes, I finalized three options to compare.
1. Honda H'ness 350 CC
2. Royal Enfield Hunter Rebel 350 CC
3. TVS Ronin 225 CC
I test drove all 3 vehicles 2-3 times and following are my observations,
1. Honda H'ness 350 CC -
*Pros* - Nice retro/classic look, Low end torque is good, Seating space for pillion rider is more than other two vehicles.
*Cons* - Bulkier (Box size), Paint quality, Higher cost as compared to other two vehicles
2. Royal Enfield Hunter Rebel 350 CC -
*Pros* - Beautiful Design/Styling/Look, Great color schemes, Turning radius is smaller than Ronin (Less space to turn the vehicle), Reasonable cost.
*Cons* - The biggest issue (design flaw) is positioning of foot rest (pegs), just below the sitting position. This makes it difficult to keep your feet on ground while you are at signal or in slow moving traffic. Foot rest (pegs) keep touching your legs and is very uncomfortable.
Another point is that seat on rear end tapers downward and seating space for pillion rider being less, pillion rider tend to move back and when you accelerate, pillion may feel like toppling/falling down at back side. So this is not safe and hence, back rest is MUST.
Handle bar positioned in such a way that you need to keep your hands stretched straight all the times which is not a comfortable sitting posture.
Low end torque/performance (2 & 3 gear) is sluggish due to bigger engine. (Not as good as smaller capacity bikes)
3. TVS Ronin 225 CC -
*Pros* - Semi-retro look with circular headlamp, Driveability and Performance is superb.
Handle bar position is very good for comfortable sitting posture with hands slightly bent in elbows. Very easy to handle in traffic.
*Cons* - Very bad design/aesthetics of fuel tank (some odd shape), Color schemes are odd (not impressive), Turning radius is higher than Hunter (Needs larger space to turn the vehicle). Cost is on higher side for lower CC as compared to Hunter (mainly due to features).
Overall, none of them is meeting my requirements (as mentioned above) and hence, I decided to wait for Kawasaki W175 or Yamaha XSR or Improved version of Royal Enfield Hunter.
All the best!
Regards, Jayesh Shimpi
Hf deluxe Will meet your requirements 🤣🤣🤣
Hf dawn, bajaj boxer, ct 💯, tvs xl meet your requirements
Because highness bulkier for you

Quality = Honda.😊😊
.....been using Honda Dio scooter since april 2013, done 78000 kms and still going strong. Nothing has ever been changed except the tyres.😍😍

A bad joke
@@shubhampandey9497 ..RE known for quality !!!!!!!!!😂😂
@@amaan573 ...I dont own a honda bike , but my scooter is my darling cos of its high quality !!...u might have received a faulty product !!😥😥
@@ampassionstruck9138 all the model of highness and rs have this issue
Driven Highness from Nagpur to Hyderabad and back... It is such a wonderful bike... Speed of 100-110 is very easy to do whole day... No vibration at all, no issues at all....
I was very much confused between highness and meteor but while taking the test rides meteor had way more vibrations compared to Highness.
By gods grace, i have both of these marvellous machines.
I’ll share a brief review.
classic 350 has:
Short gears, kick start, thumping sound and most importantly lower service charge.
Whereas Cb350 has:
Very refined engine, highly advanced and useful semi digital display, comfortable city ride (due to less weight), slipper clutch (very useful in city traffic)
Thing i dislike about classic 350 is its unnecessarily heavy, has vibrations and a very basic display. Its hard to handle in city. Also, i am not convinced why we get such a basic display which doesn’t even tell fuel status. And ofc, no LED headlights.
Things i don’t like in CB350:
Very tall gears, you have to actively shift gears in city. You cannot stay slow while in gear 2 without holding clutch. Placement of horn and indicators. Though it does have a louder thumping sound but when you speed up, its engine sounds like a normal honda bike.
Hey, I'm trying to decide between the new classic 350 and Hness.. And my purpose will be riding 50-60 kms every day, on a road that includes huge traffic jams, slow moving traffic and some fast/free stretches.. I'm around 5`5 height..
I'm mainly looking for
1. COMFORT
2. UPRIGHT POSITION of body and legs..
3. Rarely I would go at 100 or more. Mostly max of 70-80 on the free stretches.
Not worried about the other features,
Also, do u think the new Classic 350 will have the problems like the old one (parts not functioning, frequent visit to service centers), etc.. Most reviews say, atleast the vibrations have reduced except for very high speeds.
Also, i read somewhere that after a while, the sound of the CB350 gets irritating.. Can you confirm?
@@jithutube Hi Jitesh, in response to your questions :
If i were you i would have preferred CB350. Its very easy to ride and its weight is distributed in such a way that you wont feel exhausted.
Also, since you have stated traffic jams, it means you need to hold clutch more often, hence CB350 is better.
However new classic 350 is way better than old one. Has better function and less vibrations but speaking of overall built quality - honda has an edge over classic.
Conclusion- if you are okay with sight more weight and little stiff clutch then you can surely go for classic.
And yes, sound of cb350 is very loud as compared to classic. I wont say irritating but surely noticeable.
@@shanu2576 thank you for the feedback
@@jithutube I would preffer classic 350. It might be heavy, but while riding it's comfort is like a 4 wheeler (for driver). New classic 350 also have a fuel indicator, less vibrations and more refined engine. Riding a classic would feel like you are driving a powerful machine. And re branding as well. It's old school looks will attract people's as well.
Compare it with the new classic not the crappy older one
Serviceability should also be major deciding factor. I have a Jawa 42 2.1. Bought it from Pune. Last month had an minor accident wherein the petrol tank dented and handle bar was bent. Now just to repair and do my 2nd service I have to send the bike by truck to Pune and for 15 days. Cannot ride due to bent handlebar.
I cannot imagine if something like this happens in Ladakh trip. RE official and unofficial service centres are every 5 kms around. You may be impressed by CB350, but the decision should be logical and pragmatic.
RE service centres ought to be every km given their unreliability and the fact the bike spends more time in the service centre than on the road!
The last time my fuel injection pump failed I had to push my bike 7kms!!!
Don't worry Brother Honda doesn't have reliability issues their fine engineering are best.
And Jawa & Yezdi are known for their poor reliability don't compare their scenario with "Japanese King".
"RE IS GOOD BUT HONDA IS GOD"
Own honda highness it's exactly 8 months now. Wonderful bike no doubt the engine is what you l love.... A pre owner of RE and now honda.
Review still looks valid after 1 year.. Benefits of highness over REclassic...
Slipper clutch
Traction control
Super refined engine
Blue tooth connectivity..
I am thinking of selling my RE classic gunmetal grey..just used for 15kms..it skids a lot and no confidence in breaking even at 50kmph
Even after service issues are not getting fixed and that too after repeated complaints.. authorised service centre are worst..
Couple of times I fell down and I broke my ligament as I forgot to unlock handle lock.. Underwent surgery.. certainly RE is not good and evet service is also worst..
Ceat tyres are worst and they do not provide any grip.. No one talks about this
I sold my RE Gunmetal gray 18 model and brought Hness anniversary Edition I feel it's better than RE
My friend also own a classic 350. But now he is going to sold his bike.
I sold my classic gmg 2 months back and bought highness.. It's great bike..I am happy with my decision
This point on manoeuvring the bikes in the city is absolutely misleading. I have rode both the bikes in the city, CB350 is way better and way too easy to handle in the city. The bike is extremely nimble. It is understandable the makers of the video do not want to criticise the RE brand and spoil their association or rapport with them. CB350 wins hands down.
Yeah. Even re knows honda has beaten them on thier own game this time, that's why they are releasing hunter 350 soon
I totally agree with you. Cb is much easier to handle in heavy traffic
Right, CB350 does not feel unnecessarily heavy as RE plus the handling is far far better compared to RE.

Been riding a CB350 H'Ness for over a year now, and honestly, it's one of the best in the 350cc category! If you are after pure speed, it may not be the one for you, but if you want that rush of adrenaline. This bike is it. Also the fact that I can never stop looking at it. As vain as it may be, I feel you should always buy a vehicle which you know you will love looking at even after seeing it 100 times.
It probably is true but who buys a bike named Highness.
If RE changes its Classic 350 name to Pinky 350, it's sales will drastically reduce

Go for Tiago. Choose safety and build quality. Swift is a shit car.
Honda needs to improve the CB350's rear view mirrors and mudguards. Other than that its a killer motorcycle and Royal Enfield should definitely be scared of it.
They have started giving mud guard extenders at BigWing.

Hi ,
Am going from splendour pro to Royal Enfield, am 5.5 height, this is going to be my first royal enfeld experience, most of my ride time would be in city, i might take the bike to long road trips occasionally,I was thinking of buying either classic 350es or interceptor 650.
What would you recommend?
I would take the test rides, however, please tell me one thing,which would you recommend classic or interceptor? For a first timer?
There is new classic launched end of this year, should I wait for it or buy classic earlier.
Please let me know
Or should I just go with Honda Hiness
Go with honda hness it's more easier to drive and faster and lighter than the classic, I took a test ride of both, classic would be a little cumbersome but hness is good in city traffic as well as highway and best for beginners, try not to go in the 650cc segment, as you can see in the comments cb350 is a lot better

Do whatever but none of the bike in 350 segment can beat classic. Also I am the owner of classic 350 chrome hence I am saying this.
Once you try highness you will forget your classic 😂
You're confident because you own the classic 350, go and try the H'Ness once, you'll lose your confidence 😁
That’s not Redditch red, this is the Chrome red.
I being a Honda Unicorn user since 2007..rely mostly on the refined buttersmooth engine of Honda.. But today I went to Mumbai Andheri BigWing and found total lack lustre sales people... Literally not interested in Selling the bike despite I arriving in an X-Blade and being a Honda Customer... I was not given a test ride, I was allowed to sit on their test ride vehicle and did not find the seating as upright as one can expect from a retro cruiser... Was dissatisfied with the kind of unwelcome I got from Honda Big Wing.. Next I dropped in at my local RE showroom and was treated with respect and was offered a test ride straight away in the green 350 J series classic.. I felt much better then I test rode the bike.. And the dealer in Chembur trusted me to not send a pillion.. Whatever.. However high tech Honda is.. I still felt that connection with the classic.. Despite knowing I may run into all kinds of issues with the classic 350...but the charm of that low end Torque.. Is magical... Honda with all it's technology and refinement cannot match that. I'll go with the classic.
Yes honda showrooms don't respect customer, if you want just take and go like attitude
Vikas bhai, budget 1.5 lacks, pillion comfort and not so high rise pillion seat is requirement and NO BAJAJ, please recommend any good bike
I will book my bike in aug or Sept 2022

Royal Enfield dosent compare honda highness with classic 350 they are bringing hunter to match honda which will of course be made of lot of plastic parts to take care of weight and power ratio please don't campare these two models classic 350 is about feel of epic pure retro and honda hness is simply not that
If you haven't ridden the Highness then maybe you should stop talking. You are a blind RE fanboy who is unable to accept a better product simply because you are living in your own bubble. Highness has all metal parts (including the side panels, fuel cap and mudguard) and still beats the crap out of both Meteor and Classic 350 when it comes to performance. Don't you think it's a shame that a century-old brand has managed to iron-out vibrations and harshness now? You call it 'feel', while in reality, it's just vibrations, harshness and poor performance.
@@mohitextreme1988 yes, metal parts not steel parts like classic 350.
I had always dreamt of owning a RE classic and my dream was shattered once I ride it. Then CB 350 launched and I ride it. And let me tell it is way better machine than RE. I am now owner of CB350 from last 2 years. I would suggest you once ride the CB 350 and then only form a judgment.
सर एक बात तो है आप इतने अच्छे से कंपेयर कर के बताते है की बाकी वीडियो देखें ने की जरूरत नहीं परती है। चाहे वह फोर व्हीलर हों या टू विलर। सर में आप का video कब से इंतजार कर रहा था। अपने एक होंडा harness का एक पुराना वाला देखा था पर ये कंपेयर वाला नही था। मे भी होंडा हाईनेस लेने का प्लान कर रहा हूं।
Thank you Vikas Yogi ji 🤝
I owned a old classic 350..it had one of the worst ride quality.. Now proud owner of cbr250r ❤️
Can't compare classic with cbr250r. How do you find ride quality to be better?
Bandar kya jane adrak ka swad
Does the tall gearing affect ride and gearshifts in the city for the cb350?
Not at all
In longer run no
As best as every time ❤❤
On the tyre comparison, RE comes with traditional tyre+tube while Hness has tubeless which is safer and less hassle
RE has improved a lot over the years, and the new J platform Classic is really appealing. But personally, I prefer the Standard UCE, coz if I wanted a smooth, refined and user friendly bike, I have better options like the Yezdi Roadster, Jawa 42, CB Hness, which seem to be a better deal. A Royal Enfield should have the old school charm. The low revving long stroke engine, the unmistakable thump (which is unfortunately lost), vibes all added to the feel, which most RE loyalists want.
True opinion bro ..Bullet vibration se hai pehchan rkhta ha no vibration thts mean it like jawa etc.
@@Preet_Preet37 currently we have a New Gen Classic halcyon black. It's very smooth and comfortable to ride. Gear shifts are accurate, no cold start issues. But I wish to get an army disposal Cast-iron bullet restored in future.
@@officialjishanali great ..i also want to buy standard in jan 23 .. bcz i dnt wnt to buy next gen bullet thts wy i booked bullet standard 350.. ❤️

Love my H'ness I enjoy riding it.
I own the Shine 2011 model. 12 years completed. I think it will be for the next 10 years without any problem.
The refined engine of Honda is unmatched.
If you have ridden Honda bikes, any other bike will seem inferior.
RE rocks with new looks and engine.
I’m waiting for their super meteor 650
If you go with emotion go with RE. for logic choose Honda CB350. way better than RE.
My Emotions are also with Honda 💯
I dont need top speed ...so am definitely gonna choose RE....cruizer of RE is always ahead of Honda
@@iamgod3224 okss that fine its Your choice. but quality and refinement of honda is better.
@@vaibhavkaushik6047 haha. correct Hence finally my CB350 Will be delivered tommorw . i ride unicorn for 8/9 Years. Trust in honda is solid. now upgraded to CB350.
@@pritesh237 see i know Honda is better in speed but not that much in quality bro....in which aspect can yoi say that RE doesnt have quality? Like see even Grandpa's Royal enfields are still modified and are roden by their grand childs now...even lakhs of kilometres cant effect an RE engine....i totally agree that Honda HNESS is a good choice...it has less weight,has more power on wheels...may have a better top end,but do you really need such speeds in a cruizer ?,RE has developed much and this new ones dont even vibrate upto 120 kmph....so atleast accept the facts what a bike provies man.....
I could have said that if it was in case of HONDA CBR or CB ,but RE is a cruizer brand so it obviously excells in building cruizet than that of honda
If tomorrow,RE is to build a sports bike which is placed in competetion with HONDA CBR 250R ,then i would recommend myself that everyone should go for the HONDA cbr ....thats the case
In cruizer my personal choice will always be RE ,execpt in case of HARLEY ,And RE has even the 2nd heighest worldwide sales of cruizers after Harley ,so thats what iam talking about,
Everyone has their own personal choice and so are the companies....you like HONDA that doesnt mean that the other brand lacks somewhere
And btw congratts on the delivery for your cb350 RS🤝🏻
we can use 120\80 tyre in CB 350 , it would be easier to maneuver in traffic with less downshifting ofgears
Split seat option is available in Highness 350
Totally biased review. Many owners have multiple quality issues. Being an owner of honda CB 350 I really had a pathetic experience. Sharing my experience below.
Thought of sharing my horrible experience for last 5 months with honda Hness CB350 and extremely poor customer service.
I purchased my Bike in July 2021 from Bigwing Honda Kolkata, West Bengal. The very next day of my purchase I have noticed that one of the rear suspension was defective and squeaky noise from rear end. I took this matter to the dealer and informed them regarding the same. I was asked to bring the bike and upon looking into it they replied that everything is fine and that there is no defect in the suspension. I knew that they were overlooking into the matter and ignored my concern. I compared the same with other bikes at the dealership and showed it to them. Thereafter, they asked me to bring the bike to the service centre. The next day I took it to the service centre and the service manager looked into it. Initially he too ignored it and said that everything is fine. I insisted to discuss the same with Honda. He took some videos and sent it to the head office as I was told by him and I was asked to go home. After 2 days of follow up, he informed me that he has received a confirmation from Honda that the suspension is defective and needs a replacement. The suspension was not available and I had to wait for almost 3-4 weeks. Once the part was available, I was asked to leave the bike at the service centre for 2 days. I was not at all comfortable to leave the bike as it hardly takes 10 mins to change the suspension. Honda customer cares help was sought and I got a call from the service centre to bring the bike next day and that they will change the part and handover the bike immediately. The suspension was changed after 3 weeks of wait.
The second issue which I have had reported was squeaky noise from rear end. I had also shared multiple videos to the service manager for his better understanding. I have been to the service centre a minimum of 7 times for these issues. At the same time I have reported the same to Bigwing Honda customer care and a complaint was registered both by mail and over phone. After not getting proper solution from the service centre I have reportedly called and informed the customer care, to which they have assured an action will be taken and the problem will be resolved at the earliest. Every time after every 2 weeks the complaint used to be closed , and I had to call again and reopen it. This has continued to happen for last 4 months. I requested the customer care to arrange a call from Honda as the service centre was not doing much about the issue. But to my surprise Honda never bothered to call the customer and take a feedback after repeated complaints and left the customer on his own. 3 weeks ago the rear brake pad was also changed thinking the sound might be because of the rear brake pad, but the noise has now increased even more with every rear wheel rotation.
For last 1 week I have been trying to contact the service manager, but he never picks up the call.
Now, the question to Honda is, how long do I have to suffer as I am not able to ride the bike after spending my hard earned money? I have been waiting for a solution for last 5 months and it seems everything is falling into the deaf ears. The question arises regarding the quality of the product used in the bike, no proper PDI done, dealer and service response, poor customer service by Honda.
My faith in Honda is totally shattered as I had very high expectations from honda product and service . I demand an immediate fix into the matter or replace it with a new bike as the current bike has multiple quality issues. Also ,if Honda fails to understand my agony and takes an immediate , I will seek help from consumer forum and take legal course of action. Sharing the complaint numbers ( Ticket no. 1-98102587312. Ticket No.1-100833226361.
I really hope you will personally look into the matter and get my bike fixed.

Dr Ajitabh Mishra
