Honda Adv350 Review: All You Need To Know

[@figvam2349]

Probably the best review of Honda ADV350 on KZbin. Wish you did it six months earlier when my mind was split between this model and Forza350. I purchased ADV. No regrets. But some things need to be pointed out. Like you mentioned AVD in the model name is a marketing trick. And both these models are not that different. First about seat comfort. Besides of tendency to slide forward while breaking i find this seat comfortable ... for the first hour of the trip. On longer rides i make stops at least every two hours. And this is when my tail gets really tense and i absolutely have to stretch it. IDK. May be it's just my body, posture.... I am 1.83m tall. But i would love the SINGLE SEATER option. I assume it would limit the underseat compartment size, but i'd go for it. And bigger issue is wind drag. And i mean drag on your body. Driver of ADV350 on my opinion is a bit too exposed. When you get to speeds over 110km/h you will feel it. On 130km/h turning your head around is an exercise. Some ADV owners here on KZbin installed windshield extensions. But they only cover most of your helmet. I feel this drag with almost entire upper body. Forza has a bit wider front geometry and seems logical to assume it is more comfortable to ride on higher speeds. I would love to hear other owners opinion. BTW i was able to squeeze 150 km/h outta my ADV350 on a flat straight road. It didn't feel much of a work for a scooter. RPM didn't get too high. Just didn't go any faster. Interesting that GPS was only showing 139 km/h... hmmmm. Anyone with experience is welcome to comment. Thank you for the wonderful video. Appreciate healthy sense of humor! Safe roads and interesting rides to you!

[@figvam2349]

@user-fr5ut2ue4m I think i understood what you are saying. Manufacturer claims top speed to be 136 km/h...? That's how i feel it myself rather. But speedometer says otherwise. LOL I hope you understand me, when i posted this comment. Thank you for replying to my post! Have fun! Drive safe! Gracias!

[@figvam2349]

I need to place a comment to my original post. I found variety of wind screens for Honda ADV350 on Ebay. Purchased one. PARABREZZA MEDIA PROTEZIONE TRASPARENTE HONDA ADV 350. That should rid of the problem of drag for me i hope. Have to wait till Spring time. Will comment when i test it.

I own an xadv 350 really love it this is the first stock scooter i own. Before this i own an gilera for 11 years

Looking at the speaker arm, now that is a true bike reviewer.

Good review as always.

Yay finally adv350 review, updated Xadv 750 review next!

Saw it on the road twice and it does look good tho. Looks quite big tbh

[@Serbo-Greek]

The greatest thing on wheels ever made! Great review too!

[@yassinee.3463]

Yes, that's the greatest scooter ever made... after the Tmax, and after the Xadv, and after the Forzas 350 and 750 😄

[@cristerwolff6510]

Great review! No bullshit, just main facts in a compact format.

[@maxtan7857]

$12500 before coe? Which dealer sell at that price please recommend.

[@sawtanang]

How does this suspension compare with the Yamaha Xmax?

[@mrtrek64]

Uuum.... How fast can it go? Important question.

Thanks from the Canary Islands for the review. I bought one here!

I put a Puig Shild on it,much better windprotection

[@Redmenace96]

Service intervals = 12k, 24k, and 2 years? That is fantastic! My SYM is less than 3k? Are you sure those are correct? Did I understand it right? 12k on oil and filter? Thanks for the info, good vid.

Why no more short rider demo

Intro where to find $12500 machine price..

[@AzraeiSY]

Sorry but can I ask where you get the price of $12.5k machine from? I'm looking at carou and most shops I enquire, they range from S$16k-S$18k OTR.

[@fidelcatsro6948]

Giant superstore maybe,..

[@razrash87]

OTR should mean including COE. I see the same, machine price all around 16k. I think even Boon Siew latest price is around there.

[@AzraeiSY]

@@razrash87 ah yes I should have said machine price instead of OTR. Yet to find a shop that has a 12.5k or similar range for the machine price. Yishun Motoring quoted 15.9k, but PI version

[@razrash87]

@@AzraeiSY last i saw from the latest bidding, Boon Siew OTR price about 28k

Hi. Want to ask about the ADV 350 handlebar wobbling. Did you all encounter handlebar wobble?

[@fwfefrtefdv4719]

Hi, wish to view your intro for new Honda Forza 350 scooter? Thanks

[@Redmenace96]

Disagree on the adjustable windshield. Have owned 20 cycles over many years, maybe 10 with a windshield. I only adjust the windshield 2-3 times a year. (long trips/rain)The motorized adj. is for people that are lazy or just like to fiddle with buttons! Automatic adjuster may add money to price, and I don't want it.

[@paulmaclellan7000]

Thank you very informative...

thank you for keep sharing new updates, you have a lot of views and likes, i always watching your videos, all are great upload, sending my full support as always, keep safe and stay connected

[@thomasmerton6507]

Have one, reluctant ex 1150Gs rider (age), 350 ADV, it’s pretty good and likewise this review a very fair description, and fun to ride, bars give a much better riding position. Disagree re the screen, looks right for the bike only needs adjusting once no helmet buffeting and I’m tall. And again it’s fun (not quite exciting but corners well). Shocks not quite perfect maybe say some, but I see no need to change them at all unless maybe your roads are bad. Power band excellent, on smaller wheels I’m don’t want to go over the ADVs 90 mph.

[@jzk2020]

Great video review

[@derhamw3267]

are you going to test the kymco 350 ??

[@nichiwodabian]

For a supposed "adv" scooter, motorised windshield adjustment is prone to failure easily

[@frantiseksinka9565]

It depends how is done. Maybe the same from Forza 125-300 would be not good, but take a look at BMW GS , they have it, its different sollution, but it works in terrein. If ti was like that on ADV, it would be fine. I hope, next version of ADV will you motorised sollution 🙏

[@shasanmaz]

manual is fail proof

[@shasanmaz]

$12,500 before COE+$9,089 = $21,589. cheap form of transport but risky.

I bought this recently and mounted mine with the quadlock wireless charging and zedge m208 camera. Also mounted the mirror relocators from eBay. Took more than a month to arrive tho. Keen to know where you got the IU mount to handlebar clamp tho. Currently using a ball mount to the handle bar bought from Motomall at Wcega. Not ideal as the mount had to be modded to be able to fit the IU
