MORNING SUNRISE RIDE | Honda H'ness CB350 | Bangalore | HAL Old Airport Road

[@krushnapednekar7419]

I landed here from your Instagram page. I’ve purchased the same bike and will be getting it delivered next week. I'm too excited for a ride like this!Nice videos bro Keep going!

[@NikhilSonii]

@@krushnapednekar7419 Thank you and congratulations on the new bike! 🙌🏻

[@MadhuSudhanpro]

This road is the highlight of my day! Glad someone else feels the same❤

[@NikhilSonii]

This road was a blessing in the heat of April-May ☀️

[@rajavinparvaiyil]

Stock exhaust itself has very good thump ❤, nice video, Maroon with chrome looks 😍 What is the ideal cruising (comfortable) speed in highway? How is the vibration ? Reason: i own Meteor350, have some vibrations in btw 4000 to 5000 rpm (50 to 70 kmph)

[@NikhilSonii]

I think 70kmph is the ideal cruising speed for CB350 (atleast for me) and no I didn’t face any vibrations, it’s pretty smooth 🧿 Also, thanks for the comment🙌🏻

[@rajavinparvaiyil]

​@@NikhilSoniithanks bro for the response. Happy riding 😊

[@faustinepimento298]

​@@NikhilSonii bro it can cruise at 80-100 kmph without feeling any stress. I own one.

[@NikhilSonii]

@@faustinepimento298 You are right, I am just being careful by suggesting 70 on social media :) You know how risky Indian roads can be. The bike is in fact stable at speeds you mentioned.

[@VijayJayaram-yr7pn]

🎉 respect for the responsible suggestion made ​@@NikhilSonii

[@ashutoshkhedwal1280]

Is it beginner friendly? For someone transitioning from scooters? (I’m 24, 5’7, 65kgs and ride safely and maturely)

[@NikhilSonii]

Yes it is, I transitioned from scooter too, this is my first motorcycle. Not sure on the 5’7 part, you would have to test drive and see if the seat height is good for you.

[@Thekingslayer-ig5se]

Hey it will be good for you. Have a test drive

[@Rahul-cb2fj]

Amazing quality !! Which chest mount and mic you are using?

[@NikhilSonii]

Thank You! 🙏🏻 Not sure if you are asking about the camera or chest mount brand, I will answer both: Camera is OSMO Action 4 Chest mount is from amazon by “Yantralay” brand For mic, I have used my iPhone in the backpack.

[@Rahul-cb2fj]

@@NikhilSonii Thanks for letting me know. The video's sound quality is really amazing. I don't know why my Honda H'ness doesn't sound like this. XD. Keep uploading. Maybe next time, an electronic city highway video!

[@NikhilSonii]

@@Rahul-cb2fj It’s just the mic placement bro, since the phone is recording audio from the backpack, it filters out extra noise and majorly captures the bass thump, yours will sound same with similar setup too🫡

[@kanagasabapathyvenkatachal2466]

Nice riding bro. One thing is the camera is a bit offset, if it was in the center it would be great! And this is how thumpers should be used (RE and the like) ❤

[@NikhilSonii]

Thank You! 🙏🏻 Yeah it is leaning towards left 😅 Since the camera is chest mounted, it’s hard to figure out if it is centre aligned once I place it, I will surely try next time.

[@saswatkar9373]

Hi Bro I want to buy a bullet but confused between Re Classic 350,Honda Hness CB 350. My priority is good ride quality and reliable engine and I am going to tour on weekends with the Bullet.... Which one to consider?

[@NikhilSonii]

@@saswatkar9373 Hi, I ended up choosing CB350 for those reasons only. So, I would suggest Honda.

[@nirmaldas2242]

Go with Honda.

Nice Video! Is your exhaust stock? It sounds lovely

[@NikhilSonii]

Thank You!! 🙌🏻 Yes, it’s stock exhaust.

[@nelsonellis9767]

Loved the exhaust note. How is the suspension setup while riding solo and also with a pillion?

[@NikhilSonii]

@@nelsonellis9767 Hey, thanks! Apologies, I am new to this (First bike), I have not configured anything and the setup is original as it came. I rarely ride with a pillion.

[@nelsonellis9767]

@@NikhilSonii how is the stock suspension of the bike

[@NikhilSonii]

@@nelsonellis9767 They are good for city rides, I have been driving in Bangalore with all kinds of weird potholes that comes with Indian roads and I didn’t feel a discomfort. I will update for the long rides in future maybe :)

[@nelsonellis9767]

@@NikhilSonii thanks, appreciate the quick response.

[@saurabhgiri7753]

You mentioned in a comment that it is beginner friendly? I was going through some reviews they said that the engine requires a lot of gear shifting. For example to go over a speed bump they suggested that it has to be downshifted to first and won't pickup in 2nd if you slow down at 15-20 kmph. Your thoughts?

[@NikhilSonii]

@@saurabhgiri7753 I read all those comments when I wanted to buy, my mind changed when I took a test ride. It’s over complicated in the reviews and comments. Thought it’s better to take it in first gear on speed bump, but there has been so many times I have picked it up easily and smoothly on 2nd gear. Also, this is my first time riding a bike, that speaks itself for being beginner friendly. I was driving only activa before this :D

[@adithyamb3288]

The tall gearing is initially very annoying but you can get used to it after a while

[@retr0_nik]

I'm in love with this bike. I have a budget of 80k from my savings that I want to use to buy atleast a second hand cb350? Is it a good choice if I get one at 150k and a 2021 model?

[@NikhilSonii]

@@retr0_nik I think the 2021 model will NOT follow the BS6-II norms, which might be needed in the near future. Make sure to do a research on that before you go forward with it. The money aspects is something I won’t comment on, that would be yours to decide on🙌🏻

[@retr0_nik]

@@NikhilSonii Will the 2022 model have same issues?

[@NikhilSonii]

@@retr0_nik I believe so, they introduced E20 in 2023. Check with any BigWing showroom once.

[@SatyaBharadwaj-g1v]

Considering the way you handle this machine elegantly what average are you getting on this ? Im guessing somewhere in 35-37 ? or am i being too greedy😅

[@NikhilSonii]

@@SatyaBharadwaj-g1v You are not getting greedy 😅 I do get that number and more if it’s a morning ride. But, a normal day commute to office and here and there gives around 33! Indian traffic is unbeatable!

[@wailtus]

Bro is it good for a 6’ person? I rode a Meteor for about 3-4 hours but had slight back pain.

[@NikhilSonii]

@@wailtus I haven’t had an issue yet and I am 6’ too, but I would recommend you to take a test ride and check how your posture is coming up on H’ness

[@vishnuhariharan1170]

Have u ridden triumph speed 400??. I am confused between speed 400 and highness 350.. considering pillion comfort which one will be better...

[@NikhilSonii]

Hi, I have not driven speed 400. But, just a guess, highness 350 with a backrest will be better in pillion comfort considering the type of retro cruiser it is meant to be.

[@vishnuhariharan1170]

@@NikhilSonii normally I use to cruise at 80-90.. is highness better for that without vibrations??

[@NikhilSonii]

@@vishnuhariharan1170 I can’t say if it is better since I have not ridden speed 400. Though I can for sure say there are no vibrations in h’ness at the speeds you mentioned, it’s very smooth!
