Honda CB 350 | Highness | 7000km | Long Term Ownership Review

[@ShivaKumar-yk4rq]

Very short & crisp impressive video done by you Vinay covering almost all from ownership experience perspective. Stands out to be one of d best references influencing in CB350 purchases as of now & a true accolade for Honda itself.

[@jayanthmanutd]

This man has convinced me to buy this. I initially wanted to but the RS version or even the Dominar. But considering the pillion comfort in the RS and break down problems in the Dom, I will go for this. Would love to hear his view comparing the Dominar and CB 350.

[@motovin77]

Thanks 🙏😊 I have owned the 2017 version of Dominar, which was quite decent in quality and performance, though I did not keep it for too long owing it's weight which you feel all the time, but I didn't have any breakdown as such, might be issues with newer Dominar.

I feel like I've been a part of your journey with the cb350 haha. It's good to hear BigWing let you bring in your own oil (if I were to take a guess, you might have gone with motul 7100?) for the scheduled oil change. I'd love to check with suzuki if they will honor such a request. I'm stuck with an extended warranty contract.

[@motovin77]

Thanks that made my day 😀 Recommended oil in CB350 is 10w30 or 5w30, so I got Motul 300v, expensive though 1k per litre.

Hey Vinay, I am really impressed with your part by part details and explanations of experiences about this bike. Thanks

[@avinashdeshmukh244]

Vinay I have been following your blogs and must compliment you on a very factual review of the Honda CB 350. Your admiration for the bike shines through. The points that you consider as negatives, gearing and pickup - are they more in the manner of could have been better or are they deal breakers? Also the small insets that you added to the handlebars, were those necessary because of your height/ reach? Is the stock setup good for an average rider who is 5'8" tall? Have to also compliment you on the location, it is really serene and beautiful. What is this complex called? Thanks.

[@motovin77]

Thanks for the compliments 👍😊 Low end torque could have been better and it's slightly less due to tall gearing, which can be fixed with sprocketing, certainly not a deal breaker. Yes I added the risers to get much higher and more relaxed riding position, it's not needed immediate, you can ride the bike as it which was very comfortable too..later if you feel the need you can get it.

[@satishk3519]

Hi vinay , Thanks for sharing wonderful insights about your CB350 , I was so tempted to pick up this one right after launch . But sadly the color options offered and too much of chrome made me postpone by buying plans for now . I wanted to check with you about performance of LED headlights in night time especially on rainy . I saw another video where someone pointed out its very poor in wet roads at night time . your experience feedback please .

[@motovin77]

Thanks 👍😊 On the aux lights I went for 10+10 w and all put together I find it more than 2.5X better then just stock headlight, if you looking for higer brightness you can go with Scout X 20+20 w

Hi Vinay, any thoughts on the availability of the Highness rear tyre specification which is 130/70-18M/C 63H? I think this is not a common spec used by the manufacturers.

Hi. In one of your previous video, where your you and your friend Pradeep had reviewed tank bags for Highness. How is the ViaTerra bag? I mean - 1) Does it hinder a handle movement when fully packed? 2) Does its edge touches horn/signal switch while taking extreme left, thus horn beeps automatically? Or does it touches mobile mount? 3) Can you see instrument console and mobile in the mount clearly?

[@koolkadane]

Hi Vinay, love your and Pradeep's videos on the CB350. I'm 6feet tall and confused about the riding comfort between this and KTM 390 ADV. Which one would you suggest for touring mostly? Is it possible to maintain a cruising speed of 110 on the CB350, or does the engine feel stressed?

[@motovin77]

You have an height advantage to go with 390 Adv. Which can overtake anything from 120-140 kmph and cruise at 140 all day. But comes at almost twice the cost. CB350 can easily cruise at 110 without any strain, engine is rev happy all the way till 130. But at 110 if you want to overtake it might be not as quick as 390 ADV...

Vinay good review but what was a deal breaker for me was the lack of low end torque even though it's a long stroke engine and not to mention the taller gearing making the bike intractable in city rides where I intend to use it. Honda missed the trick as far as I'm concerned. This is where the new J platform of RE scores over Honda, the meteor even though less powerful on paper has great low end torque and tractability. Good work👍

[@motovin77]

Absolutely correct 👍 that's all got to do with the tall gearing, sprocketing should address this issue easily, in rest all the aspects CB scores over the Meteor... In my opinion 😃

[@tummalapallisaurabh8708]

Taller gearing improves high speed performance by keeping vibes at bay. That's why you can cruise at 100+ speeds without any fuss. As for the gearing you shouldn't worry really. I use mostly 1,2,3 gears and 4rth occasionally. 3rd is superb (30-90kmph) spread and it's a blast to ride.

Wow just wow, soo clam and very informative, great review.. I am amazed that you've getting 42 mileage on highway, is that after second service ah?

[@mottotravel]

Vinay ji. I booked my blue-white dlx pro yesterday. I found your review to be genuine and i liked the vibe the bike gives. So bought it. GS310 plan is dropped obv. But I saw CB500X there. That's my target in next two years. Keep making such useful videos. Kudos to you. Thanks. Cheers!

Hi Vinay, will adding fog lights void warranty?

[@motovin77]

Hi Pranav, no if you do it using seperate wiring harness and not tampering stock wiring.

[@MrPranavsss]

What is the length of this....from front tyre till the tail lights.

[@pradhyumna1990]

Hi Vinay, Can this be the one and only bike in the garage that can be used for commuting and touring. By touring i mean 2000kms ride mostly on tarmac and off road when necessary depending on the road condition. Also can it hold up speeds of 110-120 kmph?

[@motovin77]

Yes it can be that one bike in the garage which can meet all your city commute and Touring needs and can keep up with 110-120 kmph all day depending on the road. Light off roading definitely possible... If you are looking for higher cruising speeds or a proper off-roading tool it might disappoint you...

@@motovin77 thanks a lot for the reply. i have been eyeing the Interceptor but the price and seating is keeping me off the bike since i will have a pillion on my tours. Is there any other bike in the classic or cruiser category that you would suggest !?

I ride daily around 70kms with 10 in city and 60 km one the highway with little traffic...I'm a very lazy rider I don't try to move bike in hurry...no matter how eco I drive I'm getting around 36-38 ... amazed how u get Above 40

[@motovin77]

@@sharathreddy520 I too get 38 kmpl in daily city commute, just on highway it goes up to 42 at cruising speeds of 90 - 110 kmph

[@saurabhchandra6267]

@@sharathreddy520 you dont get it do you? This bike has long stroke engine with tall gearing. This engine works most efficiently at 70-90 kmph. Try riding at those speeds, you will see a eco light lighting up. Unlike 150 cc bikes, cb350 is designed as a cruiser that runs at low rpm at high speeds, putting less strain on engine and delivering high mileage.

[@doctormehta932]

Very nice 👌 sir, sir can we change cb 350 sprocket to improve low end Torque, if yes how we can do this please help me, I live in hills so I need low end Torque please help me.

[@motovin77]

Thanks 👍😊 You can achieve this by going with sprockets with 1 tooth more in front and 2 tooth more on rear, then also identify suitable chain... All this has to be trial and error using chain sprocket sets from other bikes in the market...
