A very matured and authentic review regarding the total highness bike.I saw an interview of this bike on a different youtube channel, instantly became fans of both of you guys. I booked cb350 after seeing your review video only. Love your content man.
I have always found a lot of value in how (my "bike professor") Vikas Rachamalla gets down to the bare bones and explains things so superbly - I try to absorb a bit of that vibe from him! So glad you found value in this!😃🙏
@@dschandar81well Pradeep has already understood what I want to say... But I didn't understand why you are interested in poking your nose in this??? Or you really wanna prove an old provorb true That when 2 Humans are talking (even if they are wrong or right) Dogs really do bark at the corner for no reason!!!! It was none of your business and will never be.. so don't show your shitty ass in between forever Ok.. get well soon..
The accessory seat should have actually been the stock seat!!! Or alreast an option to customise the bike should have been given as being done by RE in their Meteor' currently.... By the way guys, after watching your videos, a new CB 350 dlx pro has occupied a space in my garage last week. Good work, nice presentation and Thanks a lot for both of you...🙏🏽
Keep posting on cb350 ,it's like user manual for me . Watching your all videos without miss..Pradeep explations with punchy words is 👌🏻 Definitely going to buy in 2021.
According to me a split seat is not a genuine 'accessory' by Honda. Because actually it's not an 'Add on part' but a 'Replacement fitting'. Honda should offer to exchange the stock single seat with the split seat and charge for the price difference and labour cost only. Also the split seat should be available as a stock fitting option while purchasing a new bike from them. I am personally postponing my new CB350 purchase till Honda cleans up its acts. I find this 'Buy a new split seat at full price and take your stock single seat home' strategy from Honda to be completely nonsensical and exploitative. They are very well aware of the fact that almost everyone with the single stock seat will want the split seat and will reluctantly pay for it if they stay adamant about not giving an exchange offer...
I absolutely agree with you and even I am in the same state to take on a final call about my purchase. Also there are few shortcomings like crouching instrument cluster(just gear position visible while riding, secondary cluster would make a charm),horn/indicator switch position, wider mirror positioning, charging port positioning bit awkward,grab rail for pillion rider very chunky,gear lever toe/hill too much elongated. These all will be rectified very soon in their next show for sure
Agree, waste of money for customers and creating trash on planet. Should have given option to upgrade at differential cost at the time of purchase of vehicle.
thanks gentlemen. such neat presentation. no unwanted stuff, just the right one. lots of respect to u both! keep videoing. am beginning to like honda highness along with ur channel now!
honda has given a very rightful thought on the helmet lock. But the big drawback is that the seat can be removed even by a kid with a simple tool.. also the nut is so badly exposed that every knows it... really worried to travel an park my bike away from my vision. can't be comfortable to park my bike on road side and go for long hour shopping
I saw around 20 videos of CB highness to know how much the exact height for this bike.. But your video gives me the perfect information.. You are in my subscription bro### ❤️
There's 1area which really requires attention i.e. night vision (headlights luminous intensity/flux). You should be able to see very clearly in dark night in heavy rainfall speed breaker Or potholes. Awaiting your reply ❤️
Stock headlights on none of the Motorcycles do that well, hence the need for a pair of Aux lights. I have gone in for aux lights from Maddog and made a video on that as well. These serve really well.
Hi Vinay & Pradeep! Just a small suggestion on the rear view mirrors. Rotating the mirror stem slightly away from the rider (may be a fifth of a full rotation) and adjusting the mirror significantly improved the field of view for me. With the stock position of stem my shoulder used to cover about half of the image in the mirror. Please ignore if you've already tried this.
You guys are just doing a wonderful job and helping us to take right decisions. It's surely going to be very helpful when my turn comes up to make a pick with other upcoming cb's that are probably into the pipeline, hopefully with 400 cc displacement.
Pradeep is a master when it comes to tech in bikes.... A knowledge base.... How nicely he explained those anti theft screws... And I am just loving your videos... Cheers 🥂
What I feel is the provisions on crash guard can be used for fitting a foot rest which is helpful in long rides on an empty highway wherein rider can stretch leg a bit without the need for stopping. Fitting Aux light there is risky in my opinion
Pradeep Vinay, i would also like to mention here that , silencer guard was very much requiered . Aside, if the engine cover beneath would have a plate, instead of curved rods, would also have protected muds and fine particles entering. Your opinion ....
Thanks for your thoughts, guys. It's a small request. If there is any aftermarket windshield that suits the highness 350, please share that as well, like you did the mudflap. Let it be short, like a continental GT, or big, like a meteor supernova. But there really needs to be something I feel.
All the accessories are functional and give an aesthetic look. The seat compliments the look of the bike. Can you please check and let us know if there are any windshields designed for CB from Honda? That’ll come handy while cruising at high speeds
Do you and Pradeep plan to install a windshield or mobile phone holder or auxiliary sidelights or longer mudflaps/ tyre-huggers or GPS tracker or saddles or backrest anytime soon? Do let us know, would like to see your picks. Also, will you'll have your bikes ceramic coated or laminated?
Most of the accessories done, windshield and aux lights pending, will not go with laminate or ceramic as cost of the new tank dies not justify spending 5k for PPF.
Should appreciate honda providing an anti-theft feature for helmet lock. But they have left the seat venerable. Even a kid can remove the seat with a simple tool. parking the bike on the roadside and going out for a long time away from it is really risky. cant imagine riding back home during a long trip without a seat if stolen
I would like to see Pradeep's bike 😜,I am planning to buy matte green for daily use is it very hard to maintain Matte colour or shall I go with Normal colour options.?
Sir, just a doubt can't u change the side mirrors with an after market one (same crome ones with a bit more lenght), so that for u guys the visibility increases rather than sticking that small blindspot mirrors on to it. And also does the mudblap do its job is it satisfactory on ur part. Do reply, Thanks for ur updates. 👍👍☺️
Except the engine guard everything is just bang for the buck and does the job. Moreover this look more like a triumph twin now, minus the parallel engine, seats and dual mufflers.
I am so happy to become a proud owner of CB 350.. I face one problem... the dirt coming from the front wheel.. how we will handle this.. any mud flap available?.. or do you have any other suggestions or ideas?.. please share...
I would like to see that green bike with accessories so please show it in your upcoming videos. I am also planning to buy green one which looks cooler.
Hi I am Girish...I am also a Bengaluru ian.... and owning a honda Highness...thank you guys for explaining in detail about the accessories...I had been to service center on 7th but they told the crash guards and engine guard are yet to receive.... May I know when you have got fitted the accessories... One more thing I saw the flap fitted to the front mudguard I feel this also a must fitting is it the service center guys fix?
Thanks Girish. Customers are being called in FIFO method by Honda for the accessories. Mudflap I fixed it at home, you can see my another video on the same. It's a very useful mod.
Thanks for showing us these accessories. The fork boots definitely enhance the look of this motorcycle. Not too convinced with the crash guards though, they look a bit short, what do you guys think? As for the seats, I am thinking of waiting for aftermarket diamond-cut cafe racer style seats (Just a thought).
Is it a risk to have them put on them..should we trust the mechanics from that of the honda manufacturing unit to do a good job.. considering that the service center is quite far from my place.i don't wanna be going there often??
It's 2020 and u both need to work on your fitness that belly resting on the tank is not nice hope to see some improvement in up coming video... Nonetheless your video are up to the Mark as always ❤️🔥
Crash gurd need to be in a better way. It will not protect engine. Because this is behind the silencer pipe. Engine gurd also not good. Split seat is good. But seat is not fitted well with the bike. I mean only the back seat have fitting part not the front seat. Need to thing about safety. Thanks for your wonderful explanation.
Congratulations for your bike, it looks good on you both. Inspired by your vlog and honest review I just purchased Honda Hness DLX Pro Matt Black with grey. But only after using the bike for 4 days and around 300Km I found the discoloration of silencer near the engine. Did it happened with your bike too?
Hai I find the mirrors shorter in my bike, will using the blindspot mirrors on your bike solve the issue. Anyway the bike now looks much more beautiful than before.
You guys are creating nice videos ... I have watched each one of them so far .... Pradeep is a gem ... such a lovely character .... respect for both of you. Already a subscriber, I wish your channel also grows as you make more of such nice videos ... All the best .....
Wao ... Nice to see your responses. If it is not getting too much personal here, in fact my best friend not only resembles Pradeep's looks but also have similar body language, confidence and eloquence! Again best wishes .... Love ...
Hi sir, Happy to hear from you the arrival of accessories for Honda cb350 , Everything seems to be perfect , A simple suggestion on the engine crash guard with mesh on it , will it be worth altering into it , to avoid during rainy days for protection
@vinay, My height is around 5"3 and I am yet to test ride the bike. Will I be able to manage with or without split seats? I personally loved the split seat arrangement and like you guys said, with all the accessories mounted, the bike looks complete! Thanks for the review.
Sir, please give tips to maintain the mate marshal green tank and side panels, because their is no ceramic or ppf coating out their is market, Honda dealer is telling their is some coating for which, It costs around 15 k, which is very expensive for me
Pradeep & Vinay, love your vlogs! And Pradeep your explanation of inseam, anti theft bolts etc is refreshing. Keep it going. Quick question : these accessories that you reviewed, are they made by Honda or a third party? Just wondering if I try to get them here in Chennai will it be the same ones or different third party stuff that the dealer may source from?
Thanks Guhan, appreciate your support 🙏 The accessories which we got are Honda Genuine Accessories, available at Honda Service center. Soon will be available in all Bigwing service centers
Valid point, it can protect from non standard speed breakers and importantly LH side of crankcase is protected, it's definitely not a full coverage bash plate...
I miss Pradeep's hair. Also can you gentlemen ride the Meteor and share your feedback. I would love to hear Pradeep's detailed and specific observations.
Hello sir, the stock seat is creating some pain after driving for some time. Is that the same case with the split seat as well? Also, is the cushioning better on the split seat?
I have seen chrome crash guard with this vehicle. Since I am taking delivery next week in Mangalore, could u please tell me chrome one is original Honda made for this or black one.. which looks better in your view?
Hello Vinay & Pradeep Sir, I am facing an issue when I start my bike, & when it's been put on first great it accelerates without me giving the throttle, this happens for a minute and then it stops. Guide me if this is normal Thank you
Thanks for your good words sir. We really don't want to cross anyone or "race" against anyone. RU-vid is big and generous enough to accomodate all of us "reviewers" and in fact, the more the views and insights from different sources and perspectives, the better for the overall viewing audience, in a way! Thanks and keep supporting. I am sure Kolkata will have the CB very soon - I am envious of the day you plan a trip and ride the CB to one of my favorite places - the North East and esp to beautiful places like Shillong! 😍😍
"The Gods of motorcycling have smiled on us from the heavens above" 😂😂 Seat looks fine in terms of comfort for the rider as well as for the pillion but takes away that sporty and the retro look of the bike. Anyways good work on the information. Cheerzz 👍🏻🖖🏻
I am too owner of CB now, waiting for service centre Blr to call me for installing accessories, they provide based on the FIFO method, waiting for my number 🙂
