Honda Hness CB350 [2020-2022] Price in Thalassery

Value for money :-
Riding :
It provides a smooth ride. For other retro bikes like bullets , we feel as the sound comes from engine and during sometime it is irritating too. But in Hness the sound does not irritate and the rhythm is good for a bullet sound enjoyer. We feel more comfortable while riding. The bluetooth connectivity also is much effective. Fantastic choice in riding.
Looks & performance :
Classic retro look of Hness is fabulous. As the name means it has all the proud of a king. The classic look of it is an eye catcher. You will be noticed every where you go. Performance vise also 350 cc engine provides good torque, pulling as well as mileage is also good in view of a 350 cc vehicle.
Services:
Service Honda provides is also very good. Maintenance has a little work to do. You should clean it occasionally to maintain the look
Cons;
Weight is little over but doesn't effect riding.

About the Reviewer

Bought the anniversary edition at palace Honda Mysore. Absolutely worth the additional 4000rs over the pro version as it comes with splits seats (a new one is 3300₹) golden Honda & highness logo, chrome side stand, the anniversary edition decal in gold on the fuel tank and a few more.
I love the thundering sound of the bike while riding. Shifting is so clean. Amazing pickup. And the best of all - its a Honda....
Absolutely value for money.

About the Reviewer

1)the quality of the handle grip is poor. If the bike is not used for more than two days, the rubber grip becomes sticky.
2)the silencer part near the engine gets rusted like inferior material was used for the build. We need to clean the area with wd 40 once a week to avoid rust.
3)the paint on the control panel is so flimsy that it peeled off in the edges in one year of usage. The bike was most times kept in shade and driven with care.
4) there is no mud flap provided and need to pay extra cost for purchase and fitting.
5)the chain needs constant lubrication every 500kms plus and minimum 200rs to be invested. There is a rubbing sound from the chain side. The technicians are still not able to solve it till now.
6)the battery that comes with the bike is third quality and shuts down exactly after a warranty period of 18 months. Spare battery availability is a concern.
7)if you have not taken roadside assistance then during breakdowns they charge minimum 2500rs for the first 40kms and again higher rates as kilometers go up
8) headlight light throw is not proper.
9)seat is not suitable for long rides. Material is very hard. We need to add extra upholstery to make it smooth
10)the chromium plating is not upto the mark. Rust is seen here and there.
