                  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.

                  Excellent Bike
                  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.

                  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.

                  Big bike for big guys
                  RS is basically scrambler but its retro finish looks very good also its size in lines with my tall and muscular stature, this has good height better milage than other, heavy weight bikes also this makes you different. Ride is very comfortable and smooth on highways, it will literally melt the rider very satisfying and also easily manageable in traffic and gear shifts are very important in such situations which is well supported in the RS Yes it is very easily recommendable for anyone who is looking for a good looking heavy bike for both cruising and offroading even in daily commute to hobby riding it basically caterers to all the needs that can arise

                  Good in the highways, not that good in the cities
                  It has really good looks Honestly it is a retro scrambler like a royal enfield but i went for the honda for its engine and mileage Honda has a good reliability record The engine has a perfect rythm that will make you fall in love. I have rode around 5000 km The suspension is stiffer than expected especially in the rear. Great handling . Needed a sprocket change earlier than expected but the service is good and the price is also descent. It has good mileage on the highways but i usually drive it in the city, still not bad Good looks and a lovely engine rhythm Not recommended for city use the tall gearing is really annoying in the cities.

                  Meaningful touring bike
                  For bike performance, like engine, comfort, reliability, smooth ride. Availability, It is a great bike to compete with peer bikes. Actually, It is under rated. Overall it is in good package with great price tag. Mileage was also as per my requirement. Pros- bike handling is superb. Engine performance is awesome and AVG is great. Comfortable on good roads. Cons- rear suspension could have been better or softer. Headlight through is not at all good need aux lamp. Horn is like scooty. Daily or occasional touring or commuter, looking for fine engine with great average, at very affordable price. Looking for reliable engine from reliable brand with great network of service centre hassle free bike to enjoy long riding.

                  Jack of all trades
                  This bike is a jack of all trades. Reliable, decent power, great handling, economical to maintain. Amazing looks. Nimble in traffic. Just point and shoot. Amazing liquid cool technology. Never you shall face any overheating issue. I have driven my vstorm 250 for close to 25000 kms. Both city and highway, even taken it to Ran of Kutch also to the mountains and regular trips to Rajasthan. The bike is a mile muncher. Upright sitting posture shall keep motivating u to push for more. Stiff suspension gives u great confidence on corners. However slightly to stiff for potholes. Yes it bike you could consider as it ticked all the right boxes for me. However I would personally suggest to take a test drive of all the bikes in the same segment and have open perspective you will definitely shall be inclined to opt for the vstorm because of its versatility and looks.

                  Perfect bike
                  great machine for long drives and city ride, decent mileage and ultimate riding comfort. Good power, excellent riding posture. Good weight balance, Brake bite could have been more effective. Built quality not upto the mark but decent, service is not up to the mark, suzuki should work on its service quality.

The bike stayed strong and soft. No big shakes. The brakes are fast and work well. It never gave me trouble. It feels light and steady. Riding this bike makes me feel very free and safe. Yes, I really think others should try this bike. It is perfect for young people and also for people who want safety. It is easy to control and also good for fun rides.
