    Now completed 2.8 years covering 32k kms. Using stock tyres, battery . Changed chain sprocket twice, breakpads twice and clutch cable once. Nothing else is changed and take my word this is a wonder machine in this segment. Even today the engine feels like a showroom new bike. A unique engine performance and durability is guaranteed in this bike for lifetime.

    I have had a RE thunderbird for 7 years and after that I bought CB 350 in 2022 huge difference in quality between the two Honda’s smooth engine even with long stroke is a wonder. Very less vibration. But I miss TB’s low end torque power to overtake this bike lacks that. Rest an awesome bike. Will you upgrade with new Honda accessories ?

    Need some help with decision making. I have taken test drive of Honda CB 350 and it is real gem to ride, very smooth and easy to ride, great weight balancing etc. I drove the Harley x440, that is also very good.
    I am 50 and primarily this is my joy ride motor. I would use at times in the city for my club or gym etc, and perhaps once a quarter on some highway long rides. I prefer the one that is going to be very comfortable in riding and hassle free handling.
    Both Harley x440 and Honda CB350 (highness or CB350) are good bikes in my view. What is your recommendation?

    Hello Sir ... Would like to know if this blue & white dual tone Color and Mono Seat is still available are has it been Discontinued??? The 2023 lineup doesn't show these colors and seat. My cousin owns one and I absolutely love this. Planning on buying it, but only in mono seat and blue white option.

      Hello Brother, I have my doubts but you can check if any bigwing has blue and white option available in stock. Honda launched new athletic Blue metalic color in 2023 which has blue with vertical stripes instead. I agree blue and white is awesome color and the moment I saw this color for 1st time I fell in love 💙

      @RK-X Рік тому

      @@simplepleasures4800 ya, I am aware of newly launched blue with sliver stripes. Somehow vertical stripes doesn't complement the tank, unlike the horizontal dual tone paint scheme. I checked the bigwing website , it only show the latest lineup with Mono colors & split seats. Saw most of them in flesh on roads , they don't have the same macho roadster personality like the 1st gen. Looks more like regular commuter bike under 125 cc .
      Can you reachout to your dealer and enquire please ? I personally wud also visit a bigwing showroom..

    Very nice sir.
    Maine bhi last month 16th July ko purchase ki hai Blue chrome top model, mere bike mein 3-4 issues hai.
    1)- Engine head mein se ek whistle noise aati hai jab 1st start hoti hai bike, engine warm up hone baad reduce hota hai (1st service will be done on this 19th Aug), handlebar pe left side ke toggle switch bhi kam karna band kiye.
    Service people said they will rectify this in 1st service.
    2) Front suspension jyada stiff hai- To kya ye over the time soft honge kya?
    3) Rusting issues thode thode jagah pe hai.
    4)Mileage bhi bohot kam hai OB2 model ka around 25 only- I know may be 1st service ke baad aur increase hogi.
    Can you please provide me your inputs on this?😊

    • @simplepleasures4800
      @simplepleasures4800  Рік тому

      Thanks bro, congratulations for new motorcycle. A) Need more info on whistle sound coming from Engine head, does engine ride properly with sound...Ask technician to check value clearance(tappet) when you go for 1st service. B) mileage gets slightly better after 1st service c) stiff suspensions - are they very stiff or causing discomfort while handling? Normally firm suspensions helps in better handling, You can do corners at high speed.

      Thanks for your wishes. 🙏🏻
      A) Yes there isn't any issues with engine it runs properly, very responsive, peppy engine. Only I am worried about sound and I don't think that noise is related to tappet as there is no tik tik sound that comes from the engine only that whistle sound comes and that too initially and gets reduced 60-70% if I go for a small ride and come back.
      B) Understood about mileage.
      C) Yeah stiff suspension aids in handling and stability but in my case it is too stiff especially at front and let me tell you the bike which I had taken the test ride (same model which you own) back in 2021, so that bike's front forks were just flawless it was gobbling up all the undulations with EASE & I got very much impressed with that but my bike's case its exactly opposite, hence I asked you that will it get better over the time, I've only completed 344kms on the odo currently. 🙌🏻
