Honda CB 350 H'ness First Ride Review: It's Not Perfect, But Comes Very Close

  • Finally, after booking the Honda Highness CB 350 or as Honda calls it, the H’ness CB 350 (Stupid name, yes), I finally took delivery of the bike today. Mind you, don’t be misled into thinking this is my motorcycle - this is my uncle’s motorcycle and will be used by him to commute to work five days a week.
    However, I will be keeping this motorcycle with me for a week and understanding what the fuss is all about. Is it really a Royal Enfield Classic 350 killer? We shall find out soon enough.
    I plan to do a proper review of this motorcycle, check its fuel efficiency, suspension, ergonomics, pillion comfort, how it is to ride two-up etc etc.
    So, tune in and wait for more.
    If you’d like to know more about me or about my motorcycles, you can check out my Instagram page here: / abhinavbhatt19
    Have a nice day.
    Cheers

      @@ViditKothari It's a good bike to have for city ride and occasional trips. It requires little bit attention about lubrication periodically. Feels good power while riding. Less fatigue for long time. Good for off-road but just need little bit care. Maintenance cost is bit more than Meteor but really worth it. Suspension are bit stiff which are good for off-road but not good for speed breaker so you need to shift gears in between at beginning, later you will learn to do it on second or even on third gear. I get average of 36.

    Hey Guys,
    I just test ride CB 350, only few distance. Today.
    1) Bike is really really lightweight as compared to 350cc. I felt like riding my previous Yamaha 150cc bike.
    2) Pick up is just awesome, bike pulls very easily.
    3) Excellent maneuverability, Handle is light you do not feel weight.
    4) Gear position is different from Thunderbird so it took sometime to find gear twice. But I never ride any other bike in last five years other than Thunderbird so I had little problem. I can get use to it., will need practice. :)
    5) I only went up to 60-70 kmph , there were no vibrations.
    But I would say one could easily ride this bike in city as well as highway.
    Incidentally I found one guy riding CB 350 on the way to Honda showroom and I stopped him in between.
    He took delivery yesterday only and he was also happy, bike is smooth and said there are no vibrations.

    Abhinav, I agree with you on soooo many points.
    1. Big wings need sale, I understand. But to get into RE’s market share, Honda needs to increase the availability of this amazing machine.
    2. I was a bit dubious about the thump, but after this review, damn I like it. It’s actually there.
    3. When I was watching during the initial minutes, I was thinking what I would have named it, because the highness name truly doesn’t fit. Especially, with the apostrophe. However, I’m not sure about the CB350 either, because they already had a classic model called CB350 with twin exhaust. Probably a 2-stroke. I’m not very sure though.
    4. The badging feels a little out of place given that massive Honda branding on the tank, in that classic font. I would have liked something written in that particular font for the badging as well.
    5. The design is definitely for a mature audience. I love it. That protruding tail lamp from the side profile, that tank dimension, the handlebars, seats - they just seamlessly fit in unison. Speaks perfection. That being said, I like the colour of the pro models better than the ones in the standard ones. Pure Japanese classic! Not everyone can appreciate it. Certainly, not the lot who like Hero Xtreme 160R!
    6. The speedo dial is a miss for me though. Had there been twin dials like the RE’s 650s, that would’ve been a cherry on top.
    Coming to the ‘make a request’, please upload one video with just pure sound of the engine. I don’t know if that’s too much to ask for. Please do, if possible. Possibly on a highway. 😍
    Thanks mate!
    Edit: I corrected the numbering. 😝

    After watching you ride it in the city I think you could have dropped down a gear the whole time and had a better experience. I agree with you the sound is amazing I loved it too. I think this might be the perfect city bike for me, and we all should realize that our own riding techniques are ours, and ours alone. I currently have a 650 Vulcan S and Love it, but it's not a "City bike" by any means. Great review I have come to appreciate your reviews as real-life riding experiences. I live in the Philippines and we have the complete opposite comparisons when it comes to Honda dealers VS. Royal Enfield. there are only a few RE dealers here but fortunately, we have both right here in my city. Service is not an issue for me, with that said I think the Honda beats out the RE ever so slightly but I am leaning towards the Honda CB 350 at this point. Thanks for a great review.

    Very enjoyable review - good to have simple, honest first impressions of a new bike. Amazed that you were able to speak calmly while filtering through that traffic! (I'd want a bit more protection than shorts and T shirt,though). That exhaust note sounds fantastic and the bike looks great. Even the cow at 26.20 looked impressed! I hope Honda bring this bike to the European market. There is undoubtedly a demand for it as a commuter or a gentle weekend back roads tourer - but, yes, agreed, the daft name needs to go! Thanks for being the first (I think) to give us a proper review of this exciting new model.

      Jane, you probably wouldn't believe this, but I went to the showroom earlier that day to try for an early delivery in even lesser clothing. Hahahahahaha. I believe Honda will bring a slightly bigger CB to Europe. It's too crucial a market for Honda to ignore.

    I think the decision of making hness only available through bigwing is actually a very good decision. I dont want everyone to get this bike. Like RE can be seen in every gali mohalla now. Every other chapri owns RE now. That has taken away its royalness.
    Hness would be exclusive to certain sensible people who are not going to install auto wala silencer on it. I dont even want everyone to know about this. It should be kept as a secret :) so that chapris can never own this bike.
