CB350 owner here. Done around 1300 kms now and no complaints so far. Superb performance and after sales service is just next level. No doubt Meteor is a big step up for RE but I think it's good for touring not for city rides because it weighs 10 kg more than the cb350 and the handling is not that nimbal as there with the CB350. Go where your heart follows. Cheers 👍
Agree it’s very difficult to choose one from this. After multiple test drive of both bikes I’ve decided to go with Meteor because of its gear ratio (slow speed), comfort n it’s service network👍
@@dharmendragusain5572 Finally decided to go with Classic 350 because of comfort, gear ratio n overall looks. Honda is also good but didn’t like horn placement, gear shifter, mud flap n tall gear. Thanks 👍
Have you ever heard about RE 650?... And you need to understand one thing the word retro itself represent the past emotions and yes RE succeeded in keeping that emotion in thier bikes and yes thier bike has reliability issues in the past and i agree being reliable is a postive point but if that reliability can take away that emotion which needed in this kind of bikes then RE will also be like that failed bikes like Jawa and impereale
@@Nadheem721 my comment is based on the experience of RE's in my family for last 40 years. I don't call Jawa or Empiralle as successful bikes.

At the same time you would hardly find a person who'd say RE's customer care service, body parts quality etc is better than Honda.

A very decent and balanced, review. I would go with Honda because most of my riding is in busy city traffic. Occasionally I go on long trips, for which it will be great. Had RE Meteor not been a pure cruiser bike, I would have switched sides!
RE the lion which is majestic. Honda highness is the lioness with reliability. Though my brain says practicality. My heart says about emotion love and look. I go with RE.
Many people are not going for the CB350 because of their availability and serviceability issues ( only sold from the Big wing show rooms in metros )..once Honda sorts out this single issue, it will be game changer. The classic 350 beats both the Meteor and the CB in the price department and hence will always command the market..
@@raghunathk249 Classic 350 sale will be affected by Meteor not by highness. Meteor is as reliable as highness. Also meteor has better road presence than highness. If classic 350 comes with meteor engine then nothing can come close.

@@kittupathak9930 Did 1200 kms on a 3-day road trip with my Meteor last month. 90% National highways and remaining was ghat section with some critical hairpins. The bike didn't disappoint me in any way. After every 120-140 kms took a much needed tea break. No back pain ever. Indian highways (especially the concrete ones) do take a toll as road shocks are more than asphalt paving. But honestly, everything was smooth with the bike and me on its saddle. Average Fuel economy (full tank to low fuel warning light) was 41.13 kmpl, so Meteor is frugal even if ridden at 90-100 kmph in a smooth manner without sudden acceleration-deceleration cycles. Now coming to Honda, it is equally capable. On long road trips, it has competent mechanicals to be a mile muncher. At the end of the day, either of the 2 are great companions. One cannot be wrong with the choice. Preference of seating posture varies from person to person and overall, it's the only practical deciding factor other than brand fascination.
I just got my Hghness dlx pro dual tone matte black today, rode all the way from big wing kolkata showroom to my hometown durgapur. It is my 1st bike, most people said not to get 350cc engine at 1st and go for something small as the power and weight of these segments bikes are heavy for a new rider. But let me tell you....this engine from honda is just a perfection! I didn't felt any discomfort or lack of confidence and am hereby a proud owner!☮️
Highness 3 limitations 1 -- Big Wing Showroom 2 -- In place of Navigation voice control , they could have given it like meteor of nxt gen classic . 3-- Digital part is too small . It shows too much information and for that the digital part needs to be bigger for better readability.Like pulsar 150 or apache 160 2V digital part . Honda had a great chance to rule 350 cc segment but just due to these things it blew it . Meteor captured the market more due to enhancements and also due to these silly mistake things from Honda.
& the comprehension is "Honda is Honda".. refinement king🔥🔥..sadly their sales strategy is dump..selling only via bigwing..cant tackle RE with this kinda strategy 🙏
Stiff suspension honda ka jyada hai. Meteor me softer suspension hai. Aapne shayad ulta bata diya. Aur seat bhi jitni stiff ho utni long distance riding ke liye acha hai.
Thanks sir... I test drive both motorcycle... After that I go for cb 350... It is a great machine... No match with RE in any point like pickup speed comfort milage and nice looking also... I am happy with my cb 350 Thanks..
Each and every channel is forcibly promoting Honda CB350 over RE Meteor 350. 1. The biggest negative for CB 350 is the after sales service whereas RE has one of the best service networks in India. 2. CB 350 doesn't have any engine gaurd. 3. It's reliability is a concern in Indian roads as the Retro Tourer from Honda is yet to prove itself in Indian conditions. Here RE is the tried and tested one. 3. Honda is allowing the big wings only to sell this particular motorcycle whereas RE has everything under a single umbrella.
Well said Bose bhai. Honda still has to prove itself but don’t forget meteor too comes with new engine and design changes. Trust me RE service sucks too, there mechanics are below average. First hand experience 😢😢
If I had moolah to spend on bike, would definitely go with Honda CB350. Refinement and Reliability are class apart when it comes to Honda. Also as mentioned correctly, cruiser has limited applicability whereas a street bike (CB350) is versatile.
@@adarshdeepsingh961 Absolutely bro no second thoughts. Myself had owned Bullet 500 for quite long time but reliability of RE is always questionable. Will not speak about refinement coz RE owner never thinks about refinement, buying RE is emotional decision always and we bullet riders own it for the pure feel of it. Nonetheless we cannot deny the quality and refinement that Honda brings to the table.
@@mangeshtendulkar81 ya bro ihave both honda and re in my family but apart from all the corns re is not just a bike that u can live with it u have to manage all things after buying it from good mechanic to good spare parts shop but with honda u feel a bit disconnected with the bike the honda provides everything with the bike But after 5-6 year the resale will go in favour of re with huge margines
Re is more refined because less noise and vibration and long age run re is durable, Honda will disappear after some years but royal Enfield still can find 1940 ,50, 70,90 models literally on road , Honda’s durability over others just a belief and imagination, my friend’s Honda is rusting 1 year only , it is I can see
The worst thing is the less dealer network for Honda and due to the overall low sales of the bike chances are Honda may discontinue in the future after 2-3 years.
I agree with your opinion. CB 350 is a better bet. I would say RE is in the right direction finally but with CB 350 Honda has trumped RE in its own game. Another thing that everyone should realize is that RE was king in this segment for years and it had at least a decade to produce a CB 350 like bike way back but unfortunately in my opinion it was sitting on past glory for far too long and now as of now at least Honda has given it serious competition finally. I also hope that other manufacturers also learn from Honda and start filling in the huge market gap that is there in this market segment.
After riding Hness for about 1700 KM Western ghats twisties and highways, I loved the bike and the confidence it provides in corners. Two problems, not easy to overtake and it looks so small and easy to ride both my wife and daughter wants to ride the bike.
Meteor 350, because of serviceability reach. Ek accident hone do in Ladakh ride, all the Honda refinement ogling will go out of window. I have used exotic super refined bikes with 10 or 50 or 100 dealers pan India. If a indicator in your dial starts blinking randomly and you don’t have dealer or service network around. And you have to ride your bike 200km just to show it or service it. Then the importance of RE will be highlighted. No question Honda CB350 is best, but it is not in my city. Nearest is 300 km away.
Bhai sahab. Everything else is fyn but just have a look at both the bikes. Honda wali mereko CD Deluxe 100 ki yaad dilati hai. Baki app khud samajdar ho. RE is RE... 😍😍
Of course it does... And it has to , coz its nothing but new version/avatar of Thunderbird . They just cudn't retain the name coz on international arena , the name is already owned by Triumph Thunderbird. Since RE also has gone international it had to come up with new name, hence Meteor. In fact RE Thunderbird was known as Rumbler in other countries.
Heart says Honda Brain says Honda Bought it 4 days ago. Pro version. Bluetooth and phone charger and traction control are the BEST. I get so much attention. But he said that right - no vibrations at 90kmh AT ALL!!! Btw 90 tak kab pahuchi mujhe pata bhi nahi chala 😒😁
@@themanbecoming not a tech freak that's all fine.. you still get all the engine tech just like other models traction control and slipper assist clutch etc everything. My friend/work colleague finally bought dlx Pro 2 weeks ago with the tour package (back rest and visor and saddle stays) he can't stop talking how much he loves this bike. He's been wanting to get one since September ever since he saw my bike and test drove through banglore traffic and empty highways alike. He did explore and rode the hunter, interceptor and meteor as well from dealerships and his friends.. but he told that all those are very clumsy in the traffic. Even that small hunter is vibrating in traffic and you can feel it's weight, unlike the highness who balances so well in slow traffic
From these two which is much comfortable for both rider and pilion passenger like on humps and bad roads.... Which is less jerky.... Need it for my father who is 55+ and sometimes my mom seats on the pilion...
we have so many fake videos related to upcoming bikes, can you please think over making a video on upcoming bikes in india with good future prospect? thanks in advance.
I have Royal Enfield Classic 500 cc bike and I want to sell it... After watching this video... my confusion is totally finished. now I want to buy Honda CB350... thanks GearFliQ...
A well covered video shots with good amount of points covered in the review. I love Honda CB350 for City and build quality but if I see the Service Centers and parts availability coverage by Royal Enfield, is far better than Honda. No doubt Honda CB350 is a great bike, if you ask me, I would like to have these both of them. Meteor has a cruiser riding triangle and one is not expected to stand and ride, here need no comparison to CB350 as they are different completely. Again if you ask me strictly, thinking all factors and only one bike I have to chose, I will pick Royal Enfield Meteor as per today's factors.
They both cater different purposes. Consider creating a check box list of your usage. Whichever checks most go for it. Donno ache bikes hai, I own one CB and have 2 years exp of Himalayan
CB350 is clear winner, RE cult is not due to quality its because of some emotional buildup. Meteor no doubt is a big leap for RE but refinement is bread and butter for Honda.
It's been 10 years since I had to give away my 79 model bull. Been driving a unicorn ever since. Believe me when I say this. Honda is a reliable machine.... But I have almost stopped my long trips now.. don't get me wrong, it is not the comfort. Honda machines obey every command and respond as expected. However, there is always that gap in the soul of this machine.. buying a meteor as soon as the lockdown is over..
I'm 32 yrs old, 6'2 and 82 Kgs, looking for a comfortable bike for light use (7-8 kms everyday within the city). I'll go on 400-500 km tours approx twice a year. I test rode meteor and hness. I loved meteor for it's looks and loved hness for it's comfort and confidence while riding. I have been riding honda stunner for 14 yrs now. I'm also considering himalayan, x440 and bullet but I haven't tried my hands on them. What would you suggest me to go for?
Very well presented but u missed v imp point that ... Honda highness is avilable only at big wings honda .. and not many of its mechnaics are trained to service it also every time u need to service ur bike or a general chk up one need to find particular dealer ... Vs RE has multiple service centers across the country .. My heart & brain both with RE meteor .. it's a sexy bike .. looks more man-ly

Beautiful bikes
Of course it does... And it has to , coz its nothing but new version/avatar of Thunderbird . They just cudn't retain the name coz on international arena , the name is already owned by Triumph Thunderbird. Since RE also has gone international it had to come up with new name, hence Meteor. In fact RE Thunderbird was known as Rumbler in other countries.
I have a meteor and it's lovely.
I have interceptor 650
Whats the mileage u get and at what speed?
I have highness and it's fantastic
I booked Meteor

Sir your detailed presentation of every video is super outstanding. Just loved all the way watching it. Continue your good work .
Heart says Honda
Brain says Honda
Bought it 4 days ago. Pro version. Bluetooth and phone charger and traction control are the BEST. I get so much attention. But he said that right - no vibrations at 90kmh AT ALL!!! Btw 90 tak kab pahuchi mujhe pata bhi nahi chala 😒😁
what about vibrations beyond 100+....can we feel vibrations when going at 120kmph??
I am buying the dlx version just because of the colour..hope I'm not missing on much but I ain't that tech freak.
@@guyblackknight 110 is the max I could pull. But no vibrations tbh
@@themanbecoming not a tech freak that's all fine.. you still get all the engine tech just like other models traction control and slipper assist clutch etc everything. My friend/work colleague finally bought dlx Pro 2 weeks ago with the tour package (back rest and visor and saddle stays) he can't stop talking how much he loves this bike. He's been wanting to get one since September ever since he saw my bike and test drove through banglore traffic and empty highways alike. He did explore and rode the hunter, interceptor and meteor as well from dealerships and his friends.. but he told that all those are very clumsy in the traffic. Even that small hunter is vibrating in traffic and you can feel it's weight, unlike the highness who balances so well in slow traffic
meteor 350 for sure. Very balanced bike n Very Good resale value
How do u compare service/maintainence cost of both????
From these two which is much comfortable for both rider and pilion passenger like on humps and bad roads.... Which is less jerky.... Need it for my father who is 55+ and sometimes my mom seats on the pilion...
I have seen honda in person, really it felt like big cd 100
It’s simple In looks
I want the meteor, the CB looks awkward, seat is too high , meteor has a better tone, CB has a better speedometer, I;ll have to sit on both
i liked the way u compared both bikes and i got the good insights from your video.. decision making mein help ho gayi
Best reviewer I have seen , i regret i didn't come across your videos before.
Subscribing.👌
Welcome aboard!
Booked CB Highness... :) Good for city ride as well as cruzing
Me too...👍
we have so many fake videos related to upcoming bikes, can you please think over making a video on upcoming bikes in india with good future prospect? thanks in advance.
I have Royal Enfield Classic 500 cc bike and I want to sell it... After watching this video... my confusion is totally finished. now I want to buy Honda CB350... thanks GearFliQ...
ohh bhai yehi to chahiya tha , comparison finally 🔥🔥
A well covered video shots with good amount of points covered in the review. I love Honda CB350 for City and build quality but if I see the Service Centers and parts availability coverage by Royal Enfield, is far better than Honda. No doubt Honda CB350 is a great bike, if you ask me, I would like to have these both of them. Meteor has a cruiser riding triangle and one is not expected to stand and ride, here need no comparison to CB350 as they are different completely. Again if you ask me strictly, thinking all factors and only one bike I have to chose, I will pick Royal Enfield Meteor as per today's factors.
Please make a separate video on both bikes maintenance cost & cost of ownership ......
RE for busy traffic riding
Honda for faster pace traffic
choose wisely
Please compare Honda CB350 and RE Himalayan ....... Mujhe dono bike pasand hai par confuse hoo ki kon si kharidoo
They both cater different purposes. Consider creating a check box list of your usage. Whichever checks most go for it. Donno ache bikes hai, I own one CB and have 2 years exp of Himalayan
CB350 is clear winner, RE cult is not due to quality its because of some emotional buildup. Meteor no doubt is a big leap for RE but refinement is bread and butter for Honda.
It's been 10 years since I had to give away my 79 model bull. Been driving a unicorn ever since. Believe me when I say this. Honda is a reliable machine.... But I have almost stopped my long trips now.. don't get me wrong, it is not the comfort. Honda machines obey every command and respond as expected. However, there is always that gap in the soul of this machine.. buying a meteor as soon as the lockdown is over..
Did you buy meteor ?
I am considering to buy it now
Which is better for driving in the city & traffic?
Honda highness my point of view is better
Me new bike purchase karna chahta hu but m confuse hu Kon si bike kharidu
Please suggest
Meteor or Hiness
Meteor or cb350 dlx pro inme s choose kroo
METEOR HAVE BETTER POSTURE,LIGHT,HORN AND GEAR POWER RATIO,ALSO BEST IN AVAILABILITY,HINESS PRICE INCREASED 25000 IN 2023
I would buy Honda CB350. Take a test drive, you will feel the smoothness while riding.
No doubt cb 350 is a masterpiece
Extremely impressive review 👏
It was awesome my choice is Honda Hyness.....
I'm 32 yrs old, 6'2 and 82 Kgs, looking for a comfortable bike for light use (7-8 kms everyday within the city). I'll go on 400-500 km tours approx twice a year. I test rode meteor and hness. I loved meteor for it's looks and loved hness for it's comfort and confidence while riding. I have been riding honda stunner for 14 yrs now. I'm also considering himalayan, x440 and bullet but I haven't tried my hands on them. What would you suggest me to go for?
Which is more suitable in terms of comfort + which to choose for daliy ride of 150 km too and fro..
Konsi leni chaiye?
Please help in deciding between xpulse and meteor stellar....
Priority is suspension and ride comfort in city
very good information ...thank you
Re is fancy. Honda is quality. Both are good depending on why you buy it.
Which bike is better for Offroad and Long route for mountains??
Which one u will suggest forr better back suspension metour or Highness for city ride
Highness
@@GearFliQ thank you
I heard in cb 350 frequent gear change necessary
C b 350❤️👍 thanks
Cb is perfect for me ✌️ thank you 🙏
Excellent review.
Is cb350 good for mountains and adventure??
Surely yes but controlled riding and pls fix engine protection metal at the bottom and it's not as versatile as RE Himalayan or some off- road bikes.
Very well presented but u missed v imp point that ... Honda highness is avilable only at big wings honda .. and not many of its mechnaics are trained to service it also every time u need to service ur bike or a general chk up one need to find particular dealer ... Vs RE has multiple service centers across the country .. My heart & brain both with RE meteor .. it's a sexy bike .. looks more man-ly
Remember in the long run who will still have spares, and will the models be changed or dropped. RE owners will still be owning and riding their bikes.
look and comfort wise for me RE meteor 350 is better.
