      super reliable and perfect for young generation. Great combination of cruiser and sports, have been to a few trips around India, this bike doesn't disappoint at all on the roads. It has an amazing road presence as well, love the dual colour tone and sporty looks. Highly recommend for comfort

      Honda CB350 RS is a very reliable bike in city as well as highway. Best thing about this bike is its engine, this 350 cc engine is the smoothest machine. I have ever rode. You will never complain about the power as well. As this bike has 350 cc engine you cannot expect average economy more than 35 to 40 kmpl which is very good for this segment of bike. If I talk about comfort, seat is not so good you have to add extra cusion on seat. Over all it is a good choice if you need a 350 cc segment bike which is better than Royal Enfield Classic 350 at a similar pricing.

      The service is good but there is issue with the spare parts at service center. My bike is still there in the service center for more than 40 days but the spare part is still not available. I am commuting to my office by local taxi. I don't advice others to buy this bike .
