  • Honda has used the capable foundations of the H’ness CB350 to spawn a new motorcycle. The resultant CB350RS is more youthful and vibrant than the more old school H’ness, but also misses out on some of its features, despite being more expensive. Honda has also made some small tweaks to the underpinnings, and we’ve ridden the bike to find out how much of a difference all these changes make.

      They are just jealous of RE sales.. 😂🤣😂.. Apart from suzuki every other motorcycle brand is competing them with their upcoming bike..
      1. Kawasaki w175/250 was spied..
      2. Tvs with zeppelin and norton brand..
      3. Bajaj with triumph..
      4. New yamaha xsr 250 just spied..
      5. Benelli imperiale
      6. Jawa..
      7. Hero with Harley davidson..
      Both triumph and HD have openly said that they will enter quarter litre segment 😂🤣😂
      If honda wanted to check market they would have already supported cbr250r by changing design in india or bringing bs6 version of it..

    Hi. I am Australian and I love your approach and professionalism and you speak of what is really important to riders instead of parroting what the manufacturers and other writers say. Well done. Too many British Australian and US riders are obsessed with power. Power you can't use without getting fined.

    Excellent review. I bought a highness recently primarily based on your review of it. I also test drove the RS and hardly found any difference. I was wondering why no other reviewer is mentioning the fact that with the chrome elements and gps, the highness should have been more expensive than the RS.

    It's worth mentioning that honda has brought about changes in the alloy, the slightly bent exhaust and the sportier looks does seem to be more appealing than the h'ness.. plus the top speed of rs is abt 149 to 150 whereas the h'ness goe s only upto 130km/hr which is a significant diff. They have also reduces the weight and the bigger rear tires actually helps increase the traction .. I would definitely recommend the rs over highness and it's completely worth the money

    Himalayan 2021 or Cb350rs?
    Which one to opt for?

      Both are very different. Depends on how you will use it.

      Reliability or pseudo ADV? Answer this and you have your answer.

      The Himalayan is a full-on adventure bike while the CB350RS is a retro road bike. Use cases are different so it depends on how you intend to ride.

      @@Amory98 Why don't you tell how it is not an adventure bike? I have ridden the bike and I can see the design. Its only limitation is that its smooth cruising speed is only 100 kmph. Otherwise it is a proper adventure bike.

    Sprocket sprocket sprocket....... Sprocket. Honda please listen 😂. At least provide an option to buy an -1 front sprocket and chain kit as an modification kit for better 4th and 5th gear performance

      I wish they changed the tuning in this model and the stock sprocket was with -1 teeth than tha one in h'ness, this wouldve been perfect
