Reviews of Honda CB350RS

The bike is a superb piece of masterpiece. I have the blue hue edition. Fortunately, this color has been discontinued and so it has become a collector edition for Honda now.
Overall the power-to-drive ratio is good. The refinement of the engine is the best in terms of the long-stroke engine segment.
The low torque is superb and I have taken the top speed to 135 but there are friends of mine who have hit 150 also.
The cornering radius is good especially when I maneuver it into the sharp curves of the Guwahati and Shillong road.
Giving this review after riding 6200 km. I feel it's better if we get a 500 edition of the same one from Honda.
By the way, tires are very good for cornering.

About the Reviewer

It's been 2 years since I purchased this. No issues so far. And that engine is a gem. But minor cons such as poor headlight, mud spray and the tall gearing make it a pain sometimes. And the stock battery is unreliable. The stock mirrors are very unusable. Otherwise, it's almost perfect. Most of these cons can be fixed through aftermarket parts or alterations. The service experience has also been really good. Service costs are not low but not too high as well.

About the Reviewer

This is the best bike in the segment according to my opinion.
I got the delivery on 30th October 2024 and have driven it for almost 500 km the performance is outstanding, the handling and comfort are just amazing the looks and styling are all perfect, and the quality of materials could definitely be better but I am still very happy with my purchase.
I would just like to suggest even though it says in the features it doesn't have DRLS & TRACTION CONTROL it does have both and there are 2 trip meters and it even shows the average.

About the Reviewer

Hands down the best bike in the segment, a great engine and good ride quality have done 10000 KM in 8mts is fantastic all around, you have to work the gears to get power on hills (This is what I love the most) you need to be one with the bike
The purchase experience and the Service experience have been good, service costs are reasonable
Con: the Tata Battery should be the first thing you change

About the Reviewer

1. Purchasing Experience:
Honda's reputation precedes the CB350RS, making it a sought-after model. While finding a showroom through the BigWing network may be a bit tricky, the actual buying process is expected to be hassle-free. Test rides are available, allowing you to get a feel for the bike before making a decision.
2. Riding Experience:
Riding the CB350RS is such a joy. The engine runs smoothly and quietly, making it perfect for both city commutes and long highway rides. The tall gearing makes cruising a breeze, and the suspension handles bumps like a champ. The slightly forward-leaning riding posture gives you a great feeling of control. Plus, the switchable traction control feature adds an extra level of safety, which is great for beginners.
3. Performance
The CB350RS excels in both looks and performance. Its scrambler inspired design stands out, and the high-quality fit and finish adds a touch of modernity. The performance isn't great, but it's not bad either. The 350cc engine puts out enough power for city and highway use, but it won't win you any drag races.
4. Servicing and maintenance
Honda is famous for its dependable machines, and the CB350RS is no different. Getting it serviced at any BigWing dealership should be a piece of cake, even though the network might not be as extensive as other brands. By keeping up with regular maintenance, you can guarantee that your CB350RS will run smoothly for many years.
5. Pros and Cons
Pros:
- The bike boasts a captivating blend of retro aesthetics and contemporary features.
- Its engine delivers a seamless and polished performance.
- The riding posture is comfortable, allowing for enjoyable journeys.
- The handling of the bike is exceptional, providing a thrilling riding experience.
- It comes with switchable traction control, adding an extra layer of safety.
- The Honda build quality ensures reliability and durability.
Cons:
- The BigWing service network is somewhat limited, which may pose challenges for some riders.
- The pillion seat could be more comfortable, potentially affecting longer rides.
- While the bike's performance is satisfactory, it may not be considered class-leading.

About the Reviewer

Which is better, the Honda CB350 RS or the Honda H'Ness CB350?
The Honda CB350 RS and the Honda H'Ness CB350 are both 350cc retro-style motorcycles from Honda, but they have some key differences:
The CB350 RS is a more modern, sporty interpretation of the classic CB design. It features an upright riding position, rear mono-shock suspension, and a dual-channel ABS braking system. The engine is a 349cc air-cooled parallel-twin producing around 21 hp. The CB350 RS has a more aggressive, scrambler-inspired look.
In contrast, the Honda H'Ness CB350 is a more faithful retro recreation of the original CB350 from the 1960s/70s. It has a more relaxed, classic upright riding position, a simple twin-shock rear suspension, and a single-channel ABS. The engine is also a 349cc air-cooled parallel twin, but it's tuned for more low-end torque rather than outright power.
In terms of which is "better", it depends on the rider's preferences and needs. The CB350 RS is the better choice for those seeking a more modern, performance-oriented ride, while the H'Ness CB350 will appeal to riders who want a timeless, nostalgic classic motorcycle experience. Both are well-built and reliable machines, so the decision often comes down to individual style and riding requirements.

About the Reviewer

There's no comparison of this machine with any other in the current market .
The buying experience is best , they provide all the details and courteous while interacting with customers. The delivery is within 3- 4 days.
Riding experience is pretty decent in this motorcycle, it can zoom around city easily as well as suited for long rides too.
Seats are comfortable and shockers are both for city and cruising
Look wise most of the parts and components are premium quality , specially the fit and finish is top notch , there's no margin of errors in terms of build quality
Performance wise the engine is reliable, refined and produces enough energy for day to day and long rides
Servicing usually done through honda Bigwing service centres, the service is impeccable and cost is as per market
Only issue is with the reach of Honda Bigwing in India , they are increasing there numbers in tier 2 & tier 3 cities rapidly, but thats a long way to go .
Overall this is a decent 350 cc bike for everyday commute and you can use it for touring long distance too
Before considering other bike manufacturers take a test ride for this bike once
