                  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.

                  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.

                  Bike's performance is an excellent, powerful pickup, starts easily, one handed used only, driven 7700 km only within 3 and half years. Overall experience is memorable, sound is normal, highway experience is totally amazing, driving R15S vs other bikes is totally different, average can be maintained if we drive well.

                  The best bike of segment
                  Its a stylish bike. Very good looking and powerful with a muscular body and heavy duty. I love the bike since beginning, my dream bike and very solid bike. Better in every aspect in mileage, great in looks and performance. It's very sharp looking and comfortable for long rides also a good mileage provider, good acceleration and pickup, fast, smooth, tension free riding and less maintenance bike for sure. In this price range, it's the best. The best bike. I would definitely recommend to young guys, not for old grandpa's, it gonna make you feel royal and elegant, very strong presence and that's why I am recommending this bike to all of my friends.

                  Pocket rocket
                  The only bike in the segment which provides you punchy power and aggressive position it may have some cons still who are above 5.5 height can ride this rocket comfortable. Personally I love riding sports bike and this is seriously a legendary one in the segment also from 200cc segment. I reached upto 153 of speed on a highway which is so much within a 155cc segment. End of the day its very sexy for enthusiasts who prioritise power over features. So good i mean its powerful but not that torquey its so light weight and too much powerful no braking issues for me personally and mileage i got is around 42 to 45 in city and around 50 on highways too good for college students but you get back pains and spine problems not suitable for long rides good for flicking in traffic. Yes i do, The things you have to consider while buying this is its power packed for a beginner its good for track not suitable for long rides and also you have to be confident while driving this when VVA kicks in you just fly.

                  The best starting Sports Bike
                  Great bike overall. Fantastic control and road presence. Wish I had purchased this bike earlier. Crazy engine performance. Loved it. The bikes gear shift mechanism is very smooth. Easily touches 100+ speeds with full control. Great impactful headlights and maneuverability even on bumpy roads. Very easy to handle when compared to other similar bikes.
