                        the best liability i have bought
                        I chose this bike because I liked its retrospective and a twitch of modern blend along with very comfortable riding position and smooth firing of engine. Really good for everyday commute in city and a bit long weekend rides. The ride has been smooth and comfortable, especially on the roads, the handling feels stable and has enough power for highways. Mileage is descent as I already have experienced hunter 350 and overall the bike gives emense pleasure while driving. Yes, I would recommend it to someone who is really into bike and not into some name hypes, also who is interested in for stylish daily commuting bike as well as weekend rides. Perfect for the ones who love relaxed crusing.

                        The underated in classic segment
                        While i saw many 350 cc bikes and i think this the most compatible 350cc bike and you can never disagree with honda reliability, overall the best 350 cc in classic segment among bikes like Enfield and yezdi. Its been great so far the bike is giving pretty good, mileage and the comfort has been no issue for me when long run great, the only problem i had the power drop over the years and thats the only one. Yeah for sure for those people who really are interested in classic segment, don't get your mind confused by going with bullet all this should be in your list for you to be considered cause you have to ride your bikes

                        CB350rs review
                        I chose this bike because mainly my routes are on highways and ofcourse, because of the japanese reliability honda offers, plus it's the best bike in the segment in my opinion as it gets a fair amount of safety features like traction control, dual channel abs and because of the slipper clutch provided, gear changing and overall the engine is butter smooth. Also it gives the best mileage in the segment too, as I have ridden a classic 350 before, I can definitely tell the difference. Rides are butter smooth, it's like the bike is gliding, absolutely 0 vibration, it's not that comfortable as the hness 350 as it has a more aggressive riding stanc than the hness, but it's fairly comfortable, not that bad, the only thing bugs me are the stock seats, it's very uncomfortable for the pillion and your rear may hurt a little on long rides, but overall I'll rate it a 4/5, which is not bad at all. If you want the best looking neo retro bike in the segment, the cb350 RS is for you hands down, it has great mileage, very low maintenance cost, fairly comfortable (change the stock seats) and it feels rarer than other bikes in the segment as the BigWing network is so limited, and that gives you the satisfaction you need.

                        I must say, it is a very good bike at this range because of the mileage and the power. The comfort of this bike is also top notch. I would recommend this bike to my friends. Also the engine is very good. So good. Now I am planning to taking the bike to Kozhikode. The comfort of this bike is very good. The mileage of this bike is around 35 kmpl. The power of this bike is outstanding in compared to other bikes. The mileage and the power of this bike is top notch at this range. The comfort of this bike is also great. The power of the engine is also very impressive at this range. So yeah, I would recommend this bike to everyone.

                        Smooth Engine, Great Looks, Efficient Mileage!!
                        I was willing to go in 160cc or above. I took test drive, the engine smoothness and stunning look are the 2 key factors. Apart from that Cb350rs has better mileage than speed 400 and price range is also lower comparatively. Better than Triumph in mileage and better than RE in performance. It’s suited for those who are willing to do rides on weekends and wants to use as daily commute as well. Highway ride is better compared to city. Still having 350cc with dual channels abs helps you out manoeuvre others and gives extra edge while breaking. City mileage between 33.5 to 36 kmpl and highway mileage varies between 38 to 44 kmpl, depending on riding style and roads.

                        The bike gives great performance and comfort for the long run, maintenance is little costly but the bike doesn't disappoint, ABS gives really good safety and bike due to its heavy weight remains stable on high speeds. Handling maneuvering is easy. It's easy to control, all the electricals work fine. Overall worth a buy.

                        Royal Enfield
                        Good for city traffic and once the bike is ridden for 3/4 kms, its more smoother and with rising fuel price, the bike provides a very good mileage compared to its rivals and in long journeys Royal Enfield is much more reliable. This bike never disappoint. Very positive experience. I have been riding it in city traffic and compared to other bikes, this bikes is way more smoother and easy to handle. Good riding posture, good fuel economy, even long rides are fun to have in a Royal Enfield. The bike is reliable and good build quality, good to ride and every one who has ridden one has never regretted and this bikes are like u have one and u can ride them for years without any issues. Nice bike.

                        I never dislike Royal Enfield bike
                        I would select a royal Enfield bike for my style and luxury life and like that sounds and performance chosen for long-distance comfort, while a more aggressive, aerodynamic, and stiff frame is chosen for racing The ride so far is a mix of learning building confidence and finding joy in the journey with many riders suggesting it takes about a month to get comfortable while some say it takes up to five years Key elements often include practicing low-speed maneuvers wearing proper gear and most importantly riding your own ride at a comfortable pace. Royal Enfield bikes are highly recommended for riders seeking a retro-styled comfortable and charismatic machine for cruising, commuting, or long-distance touring, particularly with the new 350cc J-series and 650cc twin-cylinder models.
