15k premium for traction control, LED headlight slipper clutch and Honda badge : justified
I think people will pay 15k just for the Honda badge. They make top notch bikes.
@shumi, I think you missed that CB not only has 3Nm more, it's lighter and pumps that torque at a 25% lower RPM. Together, these allow honda to go with taller gearing and still have acceptable performance. Means better FE and more relaxed engine while crusing on the highway.
Location : Nandi Hills , Bangalore
To be specific it's in Chikkaballapur district near to Bangalore not exactly Bangalore 😎

Watching a whole review by shumi at zigwheels made my day and Shumi is speaking faster than my lecturer
Seriously ... !! I thought that too 😝😜
It is so amazing to see two big names collaborating to bring us good content kudos! Zigwheels and PD
Very nice, clean & crisp review for me 👍 I wonder why it was hiding from my viewing list for so long.
It's a very good Motorcycle from Honda. And as Shumi mentioned its thumpy note is really good minus unwanted clattering noises.
And if one gets creative, it's a very good Motorcycle to customise.
If you dont draw parallels and enjoy for what it is, it's a fantastic offering
Everything's great about Honda Highness. But why only Bigwing? It should be sold in all Honda dealerships.
Exactly!
Activa needs its own space. No new comers allowed
@@AjeetDhale wtf 😂😂😂
Exclusivity.. Uniqness..
Nearest Bigwing is 200km away from me.. Bt I love it. Cs I ll b the sole owner of CB350 in my place for a while atleast. Love being the center of attraction.. Love all the stares n curiosity created around. Yes I'm selfish!!!
if sold in normal showroom,cb 350 will loose its premium feel...may become overrated
👽
Wow. I actually liked this "In The Moment Review"
No unnecessary music and useless Dramatic cut shots. A guy just simply telling how he felt the bike was and what are the challenges that the company and the product will face in the coming time. I've stopped watching Indian reviewers Review vehicles because it's just so dramatic and has senseless Bollywood vibes.
Kudos to Shumi and whoever's idea it was for this kind of review.
The higher gearing in CB350 is an advantage rather than a minus..the top end becomes smooth and unrestrained. Regarding the frequent changing of gears, it's not really that frequent at all once you get the hang of being in the right slot in the right situation.. instead, operating the butter smooth clutch and gear box of the CB350 can be an exhilarating experience. Just take a trial ride before booking the CB350 ( or any other bike ) instead of basing your judgment on UA-cam reviews and comments..2 lacs is not a small amount and a bike is just a machine meant to serve your needs, hence better that there be no room for crappy emotional attachments when you take the plunge..
@ Raghunath Bro but in Abhinav Bhatt's review he said that CB 350 will be comfortable at 90-95 on highway whereas Meteor is comfortable at even 100-105. So where has that extra 3NM in CB 350 gone? I mean it has to show it's presence somewhere. And not to forget it is lighter by 10 kgs. Honda definitely hasn't made it easier for us to choose 😃😡
@@knitinpatel Ok. Nearest showroom 70 kms away 😄. Btw bro have you taken TD?
@Dr Mech thanks for detailed reply.
This is the whole review. Other reviewers are just giving an edge to REs based upon price etc. The way you have summed up everything is what every reviewer should learn and apply in their reviews.
Good Review as always 😍 no dramatic intros, actings and no rumbling background musics...loved it 😁
Shumi: I wont Call this H'ness
Also Shumi: This is Honda H'ness 🤣🤣🤣
Ahahahahajahahahahaha
🤣🤣
@@shu_mar sir...I am also from Jamshedpur and is a owner of himalayan and wanted to buy cb 350.. and the nearest showroom of bigwing is at Ranchi which is 130 kms from jamshedpur.....
Best review after long time whether its Zigs or PD.
Thanks Shumi
There was a time...when
" Sagar Sheldekar used to rule POWERDRIFT "
" Kartikeya singhee used to rule AUTOCAR "
Missing that era...😥
@maxwrist I think you belong to that era too...😄
@@srk0034 😂😂😂😂
What is wrong in the current era..... If any constructive feedback m sure the team would be ready to hear.... Cheers
@@vaibhavhalgekar914 it is not about that... Just missing it... Not saying we don't like the new one... We just miss the old days
@@soumikdam6442 cool👍
A good explainer what hinesss is..Short.. Precise...
just hearing your voice makes me like the video first and then watch it ❤ shumi 😊😊
I think shumi expectation are extremely high.... It's just a 2L 350 cc bike..... I've owned one since oct 22 and it's absolutely fantastic..... He's right about the tall gearing and that's only when you are in extremely high speeds and have to slow done then you'll feel decrease in more but that's negligible
Works brilliant in the city and amazing on long journeys as it's ergonomics are comfortable
Hey schumi, I really like watching your video's, it's educational and impressive, however I would like to let everyone know now is that this bike doesn't have traction control, the T stands for torque control, it's in the manual.
Good fast thorough review
That's was a very well made crash course review.
It does have navigation via arrows (like beeline)
Lovely review👍. Well expected though🙂
Fabulous review sir 👌👌❤️🤠
Very well maintained all aspects.👍
I was so confused.. I looked at Shumi and zigwheels logo at least 3 times... 🤣
He is with power drift right?
This made me wonder too.
@@Rohi321 yup... It's just that cb350 is a difficult bike to get hands on, even for reviewers... So, power drift shared their experience for exclusive zigwheels audience... But I think at least 90% of their subscribers are common... 🤣
sameer kembhavi PD and Zigwheels are owned by the same parent company. So not surprising in them sharing resources
I think all channels are under one parent company
Yes Johnny Sins
Hello, great videos and good review of the Honda CB350. It would be nice if you spoke more slowly as an American you seem to be speed reading. Thanks 😊
It's so nice motorcycle. Hope this one imported in Thailand.
Never forget to mention the cruising RPM at 100 kmph in the top gear for any bike.
Fun fact: the name "shubhabrata's" literal translation is "Good brother" and shumi really is a good brother😉
The major thing is no vibrations, that is the refinement of the engine if it is the case, royal Enfield take note, the only reason they upgraded engine is due to Honda launching 350 cc. Kudos for Honda. Competition is hugely welcome, goodbye vibrations.
The audio quality could have been better ,too many background noises.
But it does suite well the bird's chirping, monkey's Nature... Etc!
The place being nandi Hills is close to the airfield of Yelahanka, Banglore.. Hence bgr noise of flight can also be heard..
sir, i used bullet 350 for years. now interested in CB. can you please tell me about the power delivery in the 2-3 gears compared to bullet 350
Hey Shumi on ZW!! Yay. 🚲🛵🛴
Hey Shumi, could you please suggest which option would be a better in terms of retro modern bike which is capable of cruising besides city riding....
I'm actually confused between Jawa 42 and hness
Shumi good to see u on zigwheels.
Great review.
Another superb one Shumi.
It’s good to have it sold only at the Big Wing outlets, can you imagine taking it for a service at the normal Honda outlets and finding space for the CB with all the Activa’s. Here Honda is giving you a premium experience which will also help in the lifetime of your CB.
If it was at the normal outlets then the same people who would like there instead of Big Wing would crib and cry saying after paying more than two lacs we have to share it with Activas.
Cheers
Also fact-Shumi and other powerdrift crew are sponsored by RE , they're always biased towards re
Yeah it looks that way
Powerdrift, Zigwheels all seem same to me. The only different one is Autocar.
Sourabh Hirau that's because both PD and Zigwheels is owned by the same parent company
*Jim Ross:* bah gawd almighty! That leather sound is killin mah eardrums
Beautiful machine + a reliable work horse 😳❤️🔥❤️🔥💥💥‼️‼️🌟🌟
U and kartikaya are best in motocycle journalism.
When you shoot one video and manage to upload on sister channels as well😁!
Came here for Shumi🔥💕
We have bigwing in my city but my question is about the availability and price of the parts incase of accidents or damages
So this is where the idea of motorinc was born. Nice
Near engine exhaust pipe colour changing to yellow sir..Is there any solution to solve this....
the background scenery is amazing, it looks like a painted picture, the golden sky 🙂.
I can hear the cameraman gripping hands,
overall a very nice review as always. Thanks zigwheels
Nandi hills near bengaluru
The nearest showroom from Chennai is 400kms.. in bangalore or in Coimbatore which is even far off.. and the question is will every Honda showroom service it or only a bigwing dealer will service this that also has to be looked at. Cost of ownership, cost of spares
As of now only big wings will service.
Love from CHINA Bro i am from Hyderabad INDIA love to watch your video i will buy this bike once i go back to INDIA after this Covid-19 finish.... and restart of flights.
Facts - Honda has more hp, torque, economy and range more features, better built quality and ofcourse exaust is bonus
jawa or highness or meteor which is worth the price??
...... one word for this review..... "Solid".......
Why have no big youtuber reviewed cb350 so far..
@zigwheels can you help me. I am confused with himalayan and cb350 . Both are in same price bracket. I usually ride in city condition and I take the bike weekend to exploring. I am 6 feet tall. Please help me out🙏
Is Honda planning to get a highness 650 in future in a similar platform of City bike???
I know you do not know but what are your thoughts on this coming to the United states?
Hi. Contrary to what you say I think the gear shifter is just ideal, for both the toe and the heel.
I find it surprising you didnt run to mama to complain about the inferior headlamps, which in most cases will let you down when u need illumination the most.
Does Honda highness have Kick start also??
I've booked the DLX PRO metallic black version and will get the delivery on 30th Nov.
Congratulations 🎉👏❣️
When did u book it?
@@nandhutan thnx mate😀
@@Yash-xi3qy on October 20th
I felt u were saying just the opposite abt CB last week in power drift 😀
Highness or Himalayan for long rides ?
Hness good for long ride ?
Why is no one mentioning about its lack of a Kickstarter is baffling to me. I would not want to "push-start" this heavy metal body if ever the electrical system fails. In motorcycles , Kickstarter is still a must for being considered practical
Awesome bike no doubt. So many people are moving from thunderbird to this. Honda engine is unbeatable and we can buy it blindly 🎉
So many people? Half the cities don't have a big wing store near them. Get your facts checked bro.
@@pradidorai you are rite I never said it's available everywer. I do know that highness is available in only big wings showroom. I'm a owner of RE thunderbird and the club too. So we discuss the same in our groupp. So I'm not any random person just commenting thalaivare. 👍
@@Jaideepsniper then how do you claim people owning a thunderbird moving to this thala.. may be in your group and some people not all..
@@Jaideepsniper bro I have a thunderbird and I'm going to book highness🔥🔥
@@explorerwandererwanderer8270 super. Happy riding. I have got my bike delivered. And some people won't believe tht RE owners would go for Honda too. Congrats
What about it's distance to empty feature
Your background is highlight of the video, nice👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much Shumi for this! Have been waiting for so long to know your first riding impressions of this motorcycle.
It's really sad that Honda is not offering this motorcycle to Automobile journalists for testing.
Again thanks to Shumi and Zigwheels :)
Honda knows that these journalists will protect RE business interest & will give biased review.
Take this short review for an example. He kept mentioning how Meteor is not so far behind while he didn’t utter a single word on Classic 350 which is right comparison to H’Ness. Classic 350 is cash cow for RE & it doesn’t stand a chance to win competition with H’Ness. So none of the Auto Journalist is daring to speak on H’Ness V.S. Classic 350.
Well the j platform engine will come to classic too
@@avinavaduttaroychowdhury5612 That doesn’t certify anything. We don’t know when is it going to come? We don’t know what will be the other changes? How that bike will ride, handle, feel etc?
More importantly, till that happens there will be 50k customers buying Classic every month! So it’s worthwhile to put up H’Ness V.S. Classic comparison so that few of them will be benefited.
@@kimphilbi9109 we can definitely expect classic 350 which will be on par with the highness given the meteor is with par with the highness in terms of engine . I am ready to support eicher motors and indian made enfields. Not a blind follower of re cult but a person who needed a feel in the lazy morning rides would prefer re because of the performance it has to offer. Classic with j platform can easily outperform highness i future
@@avinavaduttaroychowdhury5612 “We can expect” is a speculation. CB350 is better than Classic 350 is a fact. Also, unlike Honda new RE bikes are prone to niggles & we have to consider this angle before certifying that new RE engine is at par to Honda.
I too feel proud for Indian companies. I really liked the way Tata upped the game in Safety, Mahindra doing outstanding job with Thar. But RE isn’t in same league. It took 13 years for an engine update, for many years complaints of rust have fallen on deaf ears, except for Interceptor all new launches have been full of niggles, the price however kept increasing, this list can go on. In nutshell, RE took their fans for granted for long. The formidable competition from Honda will only get best out of RE at faster pace.
As an automobile enthusiast my opinion is that we should allow this to happen without favouring RE with any kind of bias. That’s why I am criticising jornos.
Love you Shumi 🔥
I think they have stopped giving chrome fenders on the base model, and that is really a deal breaker for me.
Apparently what I noticed is HONDA is not giving Hyness for Ride review 😑and your getting motorcycles from ROYAL BROTHERS Rental place in Banglore 👌®️
When did u get ur delivery?
Here for Shumi Anna ❤
Which is better for 10-15 year use ?
H'ness or meteor?

CB350 Areas of Improvement from a owners perspective:
#while bike is happily sold out of BigWing territories, no local service support, only oil change capabilities 😅😅
# option of seat configuration at purchase not provided.
#lack of connectivity app from Honda for iOS/Apple on DLX Pro - even after 8 -9 months of launch 😰😰
# OEM crash / Leg guard could have been bigger to protect the bike in case of fall
# factory fitted mud flaps front & rear, bash plate should be provided.
# some additional storage under seat would have been useful.
Is it due to just the CoVid situation that company's are behaving slighty high headed, heard/saw about a couple of reviews where the vehicle isnt still available for the on road reviews
Please make a video on Himalayan bs6🙏🏻🙏🏻
Any info about availability in csd ?
These first'impression videos are far better than the scripted ones that come out as reviews. Got a lot of useful information. Shumi, you would do this frequently when at overdrive, you should do this more often. Not everyone likes all that background score and scripted content.
Thanks Harsha! I try!
Liked and Subscribed becoz @Shumi requested :)
Awesome!
Bro- what's on road price of Honda Highness? Thanks advance..
2 lakhs 18 thousand in Indore big wing showroom.
Traction control has nothing to do with BHP. It can kick in and make a difference on a wet corner at daily speeds.
You are right..Don't know how these so called professionals get their basics wrong sometimes..with all that
gravel, sand, wet patches , oil spills etc on our roads, traction control should be mandatory on all 2 wheelers. It's not rare to see people getting badly injured or lose their lives when their 2 wheelers ( including scooters ) slipped on sand patches that are common at the edge of Indian roads..
Kartikeya Singhee please do the review
What's your height Shumi? Did you feel good while riding this bike?
I’m 6’ tall and honest answer is that the CB is pleasant at best. If You like motorcycles smooth and slow this is a good one.
(To the guy with the camera) pls change your jacket and shoes. It quirks and heavily irritating 😣
0:28 cameraman 👍❤
But the Nearest Bigwing Dealer is 140 Kms From my Place.
Why do I feel I have heared all these things Shumar is saying? Ah, I watched PD video earlier.
shumi is your helmet (arai) with Bluetooth if not , Bluetooth connection is available ?
and what is price?

Hi team, this video should have been out before the PD comparo- so that we get to know abt CB350 and then watch how it compares 👍, anyways thanks for this😊 always helpful to see what Shumi says. I got my present ride Apache180 ABS after his demo of the same at Overdrive. 😍
Hi Vinesh!
@@shu_mar😍❤️
sir still remember you said get the ABS variant with 10k more, it's still lot cheaper than hospital bills and I got it👍
I bought the bike and covered 250kms by now... I love the bike a lot... even if they benchmarked classic 350... it is completely new experience apart from classic
But I noticed some small issues... bar end plastic was quite cheap... switchs are a bit rough to operate... the exhast makes tic tic sound after stopping even on shorter rides ( I guess cost cutting in silencer metal so thermal expansion easy).....the stock seat are quite small ..though adds to look ... a wider seat for rider would have been nice....!!! Bla bla bla... shits apart
Bike is really really awesome , I'm the 3red customer in Tamilnadu , the service here made me dull but that's not a big deal..
congrats,you got the best in segement 🤘
yeah there are some minor issues
but meteor and classic have more quality issues 😊
