Oh yes! Classic 350 vs the H'ness would be a fair comparison, since they are similar. Throw in rhe Jawa and the Benelli as garnish and texture (not that they are relevant in the scene 😅)
I was a user of royal Enfield since last 9 years , and my long term experience is that , RE is using cheaper quality parts which will lead you to spend more on spare parts and servicing and other costs are more higher as compared to cb350 , Now I am an owner of cb350.

Meteor had flimsy plastics for both side panels, the mud guards and the tank lid, unlike stainless steel on Honda H'ness. The switch gear quality(Plastic and tactile feel) was also much superior on Hness. I almost booked Meter 350 before realizing that Honda CB350 was a better value for money at least in terms of fit and finish and quality.
Great decision..I had a RE for 6 years and trust me, it was the most untrustworthy vehicle your money can buy...No idea why people are still buying this expensive JUNK
What about the service and maintenance cost for hness for long run? Even I am thinking of buying hness over meteor... Just wanted to know if service and maintenance in long run would be less for which bike??
For anyone who is seeing this video, both of the bikes are good and not made for traffic left right maneuvers because both are made for cruiser perspective. Both bikes are heavy, and have pros and cons to themselves. These are not made for 0-100 stuff. Both are made to just enjoy the ride, I guess both does the job quite well
@@sagarjaiswal3257 bro I'm a Honda fan personally I don't like royal Enfield and I have 2 honda scooters and a Africa twin and Now I'm gonna buy this and within one year I'm gonna buy fire blade.
If u Ride mostly in cities more than a long Trip RE is the best one compared to CB350.. The sitting position is like exactly as u sit on a chair, feels relaxed and u can avoid knee pain and also Back pain. The only thing RE have a Advantage of Honda
Pretty neat, but I feel the difference in vibration is due to the placement of the cup. On Highness there's no place to keep it on the fuel cap so there will be more vibration for obvious reasons, but I am not sure it vibrates more than meteor on roads.
You need to include the “sitting posture” test in your videos. Between the two which one has a better sitting posture for city driving with traffic light stops and for highway cruising.
WHATEVER YOU SAY METEOR IS NO MATCH FOR HONDA CB350 IN TERMS OF RIDE QUALITY REFINEMENT & FEEL, CB350 FLIES ON HIGHWAYS LIKE A SPORTS BIKE. CB POLIII AN🔥
Yeah...man this is biased towards CD100. People know which one to buy as monthly sales proved it . Meteor have 3 times the monthly sales as that of hness and cb350rs combined. CL 350 has sales 15 to 20 times as that of hness and cb350 combined.😂 (Even after honda made the 350s available in almost all major local showrooms due to very low bookings from bigwings)
@@ajaysurve_21 They will be busy exporting to cater to their European clientele, till there is enough EU spec QA rejects for the proud Indian base who are still struck in the fake british glory.
18 inch rear wheel of CB350 can be a challenge while changing the tyre. There are ao less options left for 18 wheel. I wish it could get 17 inch rear wheel.
Sir in meteor standard versions also available that includes crome finishes, wind screen, pillion back rest and many more (i felt some points are misleading information)
The REs have severe quality issues. They launch faulty bikes sometimes and even when they own up to the issues, they never take any corrective measures. Honda on the other hand recalls bikes even due to the slightest imperfections. This shows the different attitudes of both the companies to quality
Between Honda cb350 and meteor 350 which will be the best buy? This will be my 1st bike. There will be city commute mostly with long distance travel once or twice a month. Please suggest.
Truely worth watching this video ! Thank you dost.. jis tarike se tumne different and unusual tests k through dono bikes ki comparison ki .. 1 can get easily cleared on their choice.. u picked each n every imp thread of discussion especially with buyers POV.. 1 spl like for ur efforts u took while creating this video.
I have done side by side test ride of both Meteor and Highness.. I am quite surprised he said honda isn't the most refined engine. Highness smoothness can't be compared with Meteor. It is the most refined engine in this segment compared to Jawa, RE, Yezdi.
@@Utkarsh.Singh93 how about the service and maintenance cost bro?? Which will be more economical for longer run in terms of maintenance and servicing hness or Royal Enfield?
I test rided both the motorcycle, exhaust sound is high in highness but u dont get the feeling of riding,it feels like soul is missing ,but meteor u feel like u r riding something great. honda highness engine is more refined compare to re ,no vibes in honda.. comfortable wise meteor is good ,if u r looking comfortable go for meteor if u need standard(comfort,refined, exhaust sound, Little sporty) bike in 350cc and want little aggression go for honda...
Meteor just stole my heart at first glance, i know honda is known for reliability but just look at the meteor. It looks like a proper cruiser bike whereas honda put everything to compete with the rival but their cb series still failed to replace royal Enfield. I mean what is wrong with honda and their production still needs improvement like meter console, handle bar and the entire headlight setup. Those who appreciate honda for their refinement must also understand that bullet and meteor still hold a charm because of their looks.
Test drove both the Meteor and CB350 (NEW. Not H'ness). Meteor is smooth at 60-70 kmph after which it starts vibrating really bad. No such issue with the CB350.
If you want laid back relaxed style of ride, Meteor beats them all.. Perfect cruiser. Even for short riders its perfect.. Honda highness quality is high but not cruiser style motorcycle. Also seat height is bit high for highness.
Once we get the new Royal Enfield Classic, should we compare it with both the Honda CB350s, RE Meteor, Benelli Imperiale and bring the Jawa's too?
That'd be interesting
Oh yes! Classic 350 vs the H'ness would be a fair comparison, since they are similar. Throw in rhe Jawa and the Benelli as garnish and texture (not that they are relevant in the scene 😅)

congrats bro🤘
highness is the best in its segment
It's because they use better quality parts for exported models
How are you managing the short tyre mud guard problem... I heard it splashes dirt and water to the engine and legs.

As a royal Enfield owner,
Im totally tired of it, vibration, rusting, bad service centres...
True... Tye new vehicle feell is gone after a year or two.
Due to these reasons I sold my thunderbird x
I had rusting and paint chipping issues on my H'ness from the first month. The transmission also has also been giving me problem since the recall fix. I guess all motorcycles at this price point have these above issues.
But meanwhile my 2010 Classic 500 still runs great with over 40,000km now. No issues.

Same here, people buy re and ride it like ktm😐

Thats not how legacy works son.
buy a bike that u love... not based on what others are buying..lol

If you want power, go for the Honda CB350. If you want comfort and look then go for Meteor. Both bikes have their own advantages and disadvantages.
You have missed out one of the important features that even royal enfield bikes do not have. The “Traction Control” in Honda H’ness CB 350.
Owned a thunderbird now cb.
Thunder hell
Cb heaven
Really
8:10 did you turn off traction control before the test
No body can beat service cost, reliability, power and efficiency of an Honda bike....

Excellent comparison brother. Hats off to the efforts taken.
Nice comparison with all details, keep it 💯
Comparing base model of meteor with high end model of h’ness and saying no chrome on meteor????
right .. biased review without knowledge

I prefer cb350. I think you should test ride both and decide. That's better.
Meteor is low millage and above 70 more vibration
Taking a test ride will give the right answer
Although the vid suggested RE I presumed, after reading all the comments, I've changed my mind to Honda.
Highness 🔥🔥
Honda sounds more like royal Enfield than royal Enfield 🤬
Thats the very sad truth..soon enfields will be compared to bajaj pulsar. Bajaj will have more thump too🤣🤣

Honda is HONDA🎉
Wow. I've never seen a motorcycle, small car, pulling test. Fascinating!
Proving otherwise from most of the comparison videos of past i.e. other channels. May be paid to make meteor look good.
Thanks for the comparo.... pls suggest me out of these two which is more suitable for touring with pillion n saddles in the mountains.
Would like to see these bikes in America. I started riding in the 70s on bikes like these.

Highness comes with traction control.
But whereas meteor lacks that feature
Thanks for sharing, such a beautiful comparison, I feel honda was awesome..
That's a genuine motorbike review and comparison. It must be cerebral. Not emotional. I just like your reviews.👍
Totally Perfect comparison….Not a single bit Biased….Equally Reviewd

I was hoping to have a good review in English. What I got was instantly hooked due to that Timberlake right from the start.
Amazing production & storytelling
What about fuel consumption, warranty length and customisation?
If you want laid back relaxed style of ride, Meteor beats them all.. Perfect cruiser. Even for short riders its perfect..
Honda highness quality is high but not cruiser style motorcycle. Also seat height is bit high for highness.
Loved ur humor and the video Dhanil.
Meteor has a nicer bassier exhaust note!
But Japan lovers in India won't agree😂
Loved the presentation 👌👌
Here both get kill in after sales service and waiting period it takes 5 month for RE they will say you get in 45 days and will not refund 10k
