Triumph Speed 400 Vs Honda CB350 after Completing LADAKH | Ownership Review |  

speed 400 or new Himalayan 452 which one will be your pick?

Triumph speed 400 seat cushioning is not good for long ride. Leg thighs or back mai bahut pain hota hai...woh bhi 50km mai hi .

Check your forks,tyre pressure(wear)...done 6k on RS...Spoke with fellow RS riders ..none of them are facing this issue.. Alignment check krlo ekbat

There is rumour about RS also after 2021 production they resolved it

But his cb having the second engine

Speed is far better

And h'ness ?

😀😊

Exactly bro if and but har bike me hote hai koi bike perfect nahi hoti har kisi me kch na kch kami rehti h kyuki use insaan banaate hai bhagwan nahi

Congratulations 👍

No doubt cb 350

No problem bro

mein v confused hu Bhai apne kya kia ab?

No

I didn't faced any such issue

I faced my triumph seat cushioning is not comfortable and rear brake is not good in emergency braking..abs noisy some times

1. My bike goes to right side when hands off. 2. Headlight is useless. You can’t see anything on road on highways in night. 3. There is a heating… sometimes I look to engine while driving just to check whether there is a fire 🔥😄 4. There is error in speedometer, mileage calculator and km range. 5. Yes foot rest pedal for both driver and pillion is small. But apart from these…bike is amazing to ride 👍👌

I too find the rear brake pedal and even the footrest to be a size smaller.

Yes

Maybe you should consider the rake too for better handling

If so do check from service centre 1st or its better get Zana handle bar risers for Speed.

Yeah that kicks in very early. But that i dont thing could be the reason for not choosing this bike.

No woble atleast for 6k...alignment check karana is imp thing...had detailed discussion with fellow RS riders and service center mechanic

Buddy check scrambler

Harley is also good take test ride. I suggest choose between speed & x440 for your ht.

You won’t be able to drive 400x properly

You drove 700km on the date of delivery and 120kmph ??? What about the engine life?

@@bharatdeshbhandari9619 No no. I did 1st service on 26th at 630 km

Bro I got my bike after registration & when I got delivered that time meter reading was around 12-13 what I remember. Mileage is less what u getting.

@@travelbite thank you

I have Scarmbler 400 X now.

@@travelbite one more question ( a long one). The 400x I felt has good torque in low and mid. Didn't have to change the gears much in city traffic . Good tractibility. But, I couldn't explore it beyond 80kmph. Do you feel there are more vibrations beyond 110 kmph as the torque band narrows down? Also is it necessary to change /modify the dual seats of the 400x for touring? I look to ride between 600 to 700kms a day as I drive much more. I have two choices. 1) Among normal bikes to replace my dominar 400 and xpulse rally edition with barely 4300 kms with the latter on the odo with lots of accessories (so may be at a loss when i sell the xpulse). In the place of these two buy the 400x as it will be a good tourer + decent on rough roads (not looking for total offroads ). So a bridge between my domi and xpulse. In the Long run it will save me fuel, maintenance and parking charges of one more bike. 2 ) keep the xpulse and buy a completely touring focused bike which like the meteor 650. For me riding modes and electronics is not of much significance. What I would look for is 1 good hardware (engine, gearbox and suspension) 2 comfort + reliability + low end tractibilty 3 USB port. 4 basic abs. 5 good headlights would be a blessing...but most tourers always end up with aux lights as most company spec ones are not sufficient. Im a guy who rarely crosses 100 110 kmph unless absolutely safe and a good visibility arc upfront on both sides. Meteor 650 may be too powerful for the job I feel. I'm also open to retro bikes which have decent touring ability and comfort. A friend suggested the new Honda cb350 (classic one) and no frills and much of electronics. Ktms for me a total no. Just don't like the rawness. What would you do?

Thanks bhai for, answer kaunga jaldi hi iska

I would suggest for Scrambler but offcourse u can go for that take a test ride 1st & feel for yourself

yes, it can easily maintain 60-80 on 5th, though 4th gear is recommended if you want good acceleration

@@adisava thank you sir

No. 5th gear, on flat roads need atleast 75kmph. But why do you want to use 5th gear on that speed? Till 75kmph, on 4th gear you will be in eco mode. I don't get this craze of wanting to ride at slow speed in top gear.

I'll give a suggestion keep ur real time mileage ON then decide gear level u will obviously shift accordingly.

Accha! Ye ECU update kaha se hoga? Is it free of cost or are there any charges?

I have done Ladakh after ECU update.

When was this update released?

Bhai Bajaj k bikes bhi bohot ache hote hai mai apne papa ki 2017 pulsar 220f chalata hu and mujhe koi complain nhi h bike se.

@@Solomonkane686 bilkul.. kisi bhi brand ka bike ko agar proper servicig, maintanance kroge toh wo prblm nhi dega.. maine personally observ kiya hain ke jo log bajaj yah tvs yah hero ke bikes kharidta hain wo log bike ka maintanance, servicing properly nhi krwata hain.. other side jo log honda, yamaha, suzuki etc foreign brand bikes kharidta hain wo log bikes ka bauhat khayal rkhta hain, thik thak servicing, maintanance krta hain.. toh wo bikes acha chlta hain, then log bolta hain ke hero, tvs, bajaj acha nhi hain..

Bro as confirmed by Service centre & i also found on some Auto websites. And at any point of time while riding in Ladakh i didn't felt less than CB350

@@travelbite so I measured today, the lowest parts of the bike are the exhaust pipe at the lower bend and the catalytic converter box. And when the bike is upright, the ground clearance of these lowest parts is 7 inches, which converts to about 178 mm. So, even after accounting for possible slight error on my end, it should easily be atleast 170mm and maybe even more. I'm happy, it's pretty great and nice surprise. Also ordered a aluminium bash plate, then I'll take this on bad roads!!

Ok there were multiple complaints like it's still happening after the 1st service

Not yet

Speed 400

Bro please watch complete video you will get your answer.

already watched but idk why i love both the bikes equally🙌.... if triumph was launched along with the rs what would be ur choice 🤧

i think speed 400 should be ur choice.

@@EnKay0000 Thank u brother this helps alot..... mileage do matter as am a college student now..... i too test rode both and i loved the thumpiness of honda.... i think i will go with it.... Btw is there much difference in highness and rs 350?

@shekharsahoo220 tough question, when I bought CB350 I wanted a smooth performing bike more power was not the requirement. But now I want little more powerful bike so for now speed or scrambler for me, but as I mentioned cb350 is a great machine choice demands on requirement. For you cb350 rs would be better I feel.👍

I am 5'9+ but for 5'7 le sakte ho bhai now issue 👍

Bhai no such issue till now.

@@travelbite A few of my friends and I are facing regular free play in the clutch have already visited the showroom they tightened it but after 500 km clutch is getting loose again.

Soon

will make

Obviously Lesser ,even i have booked it bhai.

Bro book kardi tou chinta kya karna, jo hoga dekha jaayega 😉. We are on same boat.

Roger that major 😊

Get H'ness CB 350

Cb350 rs❤

Get H'ness CB 350

speed 400, better engine. better gearbox, more power.

Done bro

Bro Scrambler try karo if u can manage ht it's better for long tour.

True brother there is no vibration in cb highness

Let me clarify, i was talking about handle bar vibrations or wobbling. I have mentioned in pin comment also.😊

@@travelbite thanks 🙏❤️ annaji

bilkul vibration nhi hain yeah wo log bolta hain jo honda ke blind fans hain.. single cylinder engine mein vibration nhi hoga yeah to science ke bahar hain.. mera frnd ka hness hain, aur vibration bhi hain.

​@@bongobarta1908bahut jayda vibrations he... koi insaan aise ghatiya bike kaise le sakta he ? Royal enfield is always best ❤

Change the tyres

​@@Workaholic07 but which tyres to use. Like this I will need change tyres every years like Seriously 😮

is it that unbearable? I'm planning to buy highness in comming months

Highness is with me only, as i mentioned i was on a weekend ride so i can ride only my one bike till the destination☺️ for review so presented with another CB350.

Soon

@@travelbite and please don't forget to compare seat height of both bikes 👍

Bhai aapko refund mil Gaya kya?🥲

Go with Cb350

I have different videos for both bikes check them out u will get the answer

I have rs. You should go for speed 400, just because rs seat comfort is not good (more worse for pillion). Rest I just love my bike

Because it is

Will put

Bro, Title says "after completing Ladakh". If u wish u may watch my ladakh journey on CB350 & Triumph 400 a complete playlist is thr.
