Ridden for (If Owned)	0-5000 km
Got mileage of	35 kmpl

Buying Experience: I bought this bike from Yelahanka, Big Wing showroom, Bangalore, my buying experience was so easy as I took the test drive twice before purchasing this beauty. I had gone for the RE Meteor and accidentally happened to see this retro beauty which was far better than the classic RE 350 and still, we wanted to test drive both on the same day. I have been riding this beauty past 3 weeks and am taking it for daily commutation for about 70 to 100 km per day and I never feel the tiredness riding this beast. You can maintain the 3rd gear throughout and there is no requirement to change the gears in traffic because of the slipper clutch which enhances your riding, unlike other bikes. The space for rider and pavilion are so nicely provided in this retro beauty where you have ample space and can comfortably ride without any hassle. In the case of small kids, a family of 3 can also go in this with having enough space for all. Certainly, a head-turner, and the looks are quite awesome when everyone gets puzzled by the bullet. The components are placed at the right place and performance is really good at this point with decent mileage along the good pickup. The thug sound of this bike is so pleasing and you can hear it all day long and it never irritates your heart. I have never felt the vibration in this beauty even at the speed of 110 and it is sturdy and very easy to man hover even at higher speeds. I am yet to give my first service but heard the service cost is pretty reasonable and since Bigwing showrooms have recently popped up, there might be limited showrooms for now and would recommend checking the showrooms as servicing and maintenance periodically is very important. Best retro bike with good specifications which will be loved by all and most importantly, this gives the feel of pleasure when you ride in the road without being stressed. Dual channel ABS with slipper clutch is the most important factor and you feel the importance of it when you drive in high traffic and speed in the highway. I liked it very much. The exhaust of this bike gives an eye-opener. It comes with a split seat and you have Bluetooth connectivity in the DLXpro version. A dual horn is another boon to this bike which gives a good amount of sound for riding safely. Honda known for its engines has certainly maintained their standards as expected. There could be a leg guard provided at this price range, unlike the other bikes which is very essential. No other cons. to be highlighted at this point.

Tips for Honda CB350

Periodic maintenance is the key. Maintain the speed at ECO level rather at sporty level while riding which helps for getting good mileage and having good performance.

Unfortunate and not satisfied with Honda

Ambarish
I purchased a Honda CB350 on 30th August and they announced the recall campaign just one month after my purchase. When I gave my bike to the first service, I found that there was a gap between the headlight rim and the main body of the headlight. When I asked them they said we can't do anything now. The gap still exists and it doesn't look good. The USB charger is not working out of the box, I made the mistake of not checking it during the delivery, and now they are saying the electrical system is not under warranty. In the rear mirrors, we can't see anything. I don't have the confidence to turn left or right, I need to see back since mirrors are useless. Even 2 months after the announcement of the recall, no one has called me for part replacement. It seems they need to replace a camshaft and sensor, which needs the opening of the engine. I am not confident of the reliability of the vehicle now. I am disappointed by the brand Honda.

Worst product quality

Product quality is not good. It is not recommended to buy the Honda Hynes CB350 due to its poor engine quality. During long rides, we have faced multiple issues, like exaltation false, and the bike is not able to run smoothly. The bike's engine quality is poor compared to other bikes in this price range. I personally recommend that you choose another bike.

Amazing bike

Swapnil Jain
I have been driving it for around 2 months now. Getting 30 mileage in Bangalore traffic and 41-42 on highways when driven at 80 speed constantly. The bike is cool, no complaints about it. No heating issues or any other kind of issues were noticed. I was super confused between this and the classic 350 but chose this due to this having a slipper assist-clutch, traction control, and Honda reliability.

I bought this motorcycle second-hand. It was wonderfully maintained by Mr. Suhail Ahmed, the first owner. The engine is excellent and inspires me to ride more every time. Its sound makes me feel relaxed psychologically throughout. Amazingly mileage is crossing 48 on long rides too.

I had an RE Thunderbird earlier, I had so much discomfort with that bike from Day 1, that I was wondering whether to switch to a new bike after I reached my threshold of using RE, I did try multiple bikes before finalizing the Honda CB 350, It's been 7 months clocked near 6k thoroughly a robust engine, practical, easy to maintain bike compared to RE. The only glitch I could notice in my new machine is its poor lighting, else this is a beast.

Pros:
Smooth Sailing - Excellent for long drives !!
Stunning LED Headlight & Good build quality.
No vibrations at all..!
Excellent ride quality & Stunning look
Cons:
Heating Issue during long drives. It should have been oil-cooled & Low torque at 5th gear when compared to the RE Meteor 350
But overall I would recommend CB 350 for all Retro Riders :-)

Powerful machine with beautiful looks
27 weeks ago
Madhusudan Singh
Awesome bike vibration-free engine and if you are shifting gears properly than the mileage would be above 40kmpl. Torque, power, everything good about it. I also had a good service experience at its showroom.
Pros-
1. Mileage 40+kmpl
2. breaks, perfect breaks are one of the best features of this bike, it's a heavy machine but breaking is so perfect.
3. powerful engine, bike moves like a rocket, vibration-free
4. Perfect look, looks more bulky than RE.
5. weight management, 187kg bike looks like a very light bike due to its perfect weight management.
Cons-
1. The main LED light setup could be better.
2. Some yellowish colour formed at the beginning of the silencer due to heat.

CB350 review
27 weeks ago
Narender Byravarasu
The buying experience was good. The Build quality is also good.
The riding is also fine, but above 80Kms it needs some effort to pull.
Here are my Pros and Cons
Pro's:
The Honda Badging
Build Quality
Cons:
The biggest drawback is engine, which is Air-cooled, I'm surprised that Honda gave a 350 CC engine an Air-cooled option, it should be Oil or Liquid Cooled. Because of Air cooled engine, it heats like anything, and you can feel that while driving in traffic and on long rides as well. Didn't expect this.
The Service costs are too much, it's not that we use the bike for long rides, we use for daily commutes also, hence whenever i go for servicing they tell me that Brake pads, Clutch pads etc. need to be changed. That's ridiculous, when asked they said we should not be driving that much in heavy traffic, and we should not apply pressure on brakes. So disappointed here as well.
I get a message saying that some defective parts needs to be replaced after 1 year of purchasing the vehicle, its related to breaking and ABS, which was never told to me for all 4 free services. So, it's not a good approach by Honda.
Overall, purchase this if you want to occasionally travel in heavy traffic and frequent long drives. I won't suggest this for city drives, Family drives etc.
The mileage is also not that great, in traffic conditions i get around 25kms.

The Air-cooled engine is not suitable for 350cc engines, it's a blunder from Honda. The service costs are very high, and you cannot drive this vehicle in heavy traffic conditions. It's a bike for leisure rides, so spend 250K for leisure rides only, not suitable for city and family.

3. powerful engine, bike moves like a rocket, vibration-free
4. Perfect look, looks more bulky than RE.
5. weight management, 187kg bike looks like a very light bike due to its perfect weight management.
Cons-
1. The main LED light setup could be better.
2. Some yellowish colour formed at the beginning of the silencer due to heat.

CB350 review
27 weeks ago
Narender Byravarasu
The buying experience was good. The Build quality is also good.
The riding is also fine, but above 80Kms it needs some effort to pull.
Here are my Pros and Cons
Pro's:
The Honda Badging
Build Quality
Cons:
The biggest drawback is engine, which is Air-cooled, I'm surprised that Honda gave a 350 CC engine an Air-cooled option, it should be Oil or Liquid Cooled. Because of Air cooled engine, it heats like anything, and you can feel that while driving in traffic and on long rides as well. Didn't expect this.
The Service costs are too much, it's not that we use the bike for long rides, we use for daily commutes also, hence whenever i go for servicing they tell me that Brake pads, Clutch pads etc. need to be changed. That's ridiculous, when asked they said we should not be driving that much in heavy traffic, and we should not apply pressure on brakes. So disappointed here as well.
I get a message saying that some defective parts needs to be replaced after 1 year of purchasing the vehicle, its related to breaking and ABS, which was never told to me for all 4 free services. So, it's not a good approach by Honda.
Overall, purchase this if you want to occasionally travel in heavy traffic and frequent long drives. I won't suggest this for city drives, Family drives etc.
The mileage is also not that great, in traffic conditions i get around 25kms.

The Air-cooled engine is not suitable for 350cc engines, it's a blunder from Honda. The service costs are very high, and you cannot drive this vehicle in heavy traffic conditions. It's a bike for leisure rides, so spend 250K for leisure rides only, not suitable for city and family.

Unfortunate and not satisfied with Honda
6 days ago
Ambarish
I purchased a Honda CB350 on 30th August and they announced the recall campaign just one month after my purchase. When I gave my bike to the first service, I found that there was a gap between the headlight rim and the main body of the headlight. When I asked them they said we can't do anything now. The gap still exists and it doesn't look good. The USB charger is not working out of the box, I made the mistake of not checking it during the delivery, and now they are saying the electrical system is not under warranty. In the rear mirrors, we can't see anything. I don't have the confidence to turn left or right, I need to see back since mirrors are useless. Even 2 months after the announcement of the recall, no one has called me for part replacement. It seems they need to replace a camshaft and sensor, which needs the opening of the engine. I am not confident of the reliability of the vehicle now. I am disappointed by the brand Honda.

Worst product quality
3 weeks ago
Rishi Kumar Singh
Product quality is not good. It is not recommended to buy the Honda Hynes CB350 due to its poor engine quality. During long rides, we have faced multiple issues, like exaltation false, and the bike is not able to run smoothly. The bike's engine quality is poor compared to other bikes in this price range. I personally recommend that you choose another bike.

Amazing bike
7 weeks ago
Swapnil Jain
I have been driving it for around 2 months now. Getting 30 mileage in Bangalore traffic and 41-42 on highways when driven at 80 speed constantly. The bike is cool, no complaints about it. No heating issues or any other kind of issues were noticed. I was super confused between this and the classic 350 but chose this due to this having a slipper assist-clutch, traction control, and Honda reliability.

Sound grabs the public attention.

I bought this motorcycle second-hand. It was wonderfully maintained by Mr. Suhail Ahmed, the first owner. The engine is excellent and inspires me to ride more every time. Its sound makes me feel relaxed psychologically throughout. Amazingly mileage is crossing 48 on long rides too.

Honda CB350
17 weeks ago
Shivaraj G
I had an RE Thunderbird earlier, I had so much discomfort with that bike from Day 1, that I was wondering whether to switch to a new bike after I reached my threshold of using RE, I did try multiple bikes before finalizing the Honda CB 350, It's been 7 months clocked near 6k thoroughly a robust engine, practical, easy to maintain bike compared to RE. The only glitch I could notice in my new machine is its poor lighting, else this is a beast.

Smooth sailing - Retro riders
24 weeks ago
Raghu
Pros:
Smooth Sailing - Excellent for long drives !!
Stunning LED Headlight & Good build quality.
No vibrations at all..!
Excellent ride quality & Stunning look
Cons:
Heating Issue during long drives. It should have been oil-cooled & Low torque at 5th gear when compared to the RE Meteor 350
But overall I would recommend CB 350 for all Retro Riders :-)

2. breaks, perfect breaks are one of the best features of this bike, it's a heavy machine but breaking is so perfect.
3. powerful engine, bike moves like a rocket, vibration-free
