Last point that he made was bang on. It's buying experience and after sales and service. Honda 350 is not available in every city. I couldn't even get a test ride. Finally booked Meteor 350.
I will definitely look at the Honda now. I don't wanna go for a RE just for the sake of classic and crowd attraction. Honda looks more like a complete package to me. No offense to any RE bike.
This was the only unbiased review for the Hness. Every single journalist has put in the 'FEEL OF THE OLD CLASSIC' in the review and did not compare the bikes fairly. Everyone has put emotions ahead of a machine. No one does that for tatas, but you are different, you have reviewed the bike for what is offers and what is good or bad at. Best review, your just earned another sub.
The first true unbiased comparo among these bikes, especially CB350 and Meteor 350. Well done Rohit👍 And yes, CB350 from the looks to performance to sound to handling looks like a complete and dominant winner. Meteor 350, despite the hype built by RE through paid media, just falls short from looks to sound to just about everything.
Yeah look at powerdrift. They are trying hard to downplay CB350 and promote Meteor. Meteor looks like cross between Thunderbird and Avenger and the fake media outlets are trying to hail its design as the next best thing. Lol.
I got 40 on highway bro... I have stellar black Meteor 350... Its good... My uncle has Honda Highness, now he is sad about his decision of choosing Highness over Meteor...
Major reason why I didn't go for the CB: Requires constant gearshifts and I wasn't sure about the aftersales experience. However, I absolutely love how the bike performs, looks, LED lights... and ofcourse the price!
The cruiser feel of the meteor is accentuated more on the supernova varient which has both the windscreen as well as the backrest and more chrome elements . Fireball gives quite a neo retro upright feel IMO unless off course you sit on it.
You lucky Indian's....RE or Honda,RE or Honda...very difficult to choose...Ive allready have a Honda Shadow ace 1999 750 model..and highway speed is not importent to me...Great review :)
I think the decision of making hness only available through bigwings is actually a very good decision.i don't want everyone to get this bike. Like RE can be seen in every gali mohalla now. That has taken away it's royalness.hness would be exclusive to certain sensible people who are not going to install auto Wala silencer on it . I don't even want to everyone to know about this. It should be kept as a secret😁 so that chapris can never own this bike
I have a big wing showroom near me- within 900mtrs. So is it Wise to choose the CB350 over METEOR? Daily city commutes and occasional weekend rides are my priority
Honda have made bad desicion on selling its bike only on big wing dealerships specially when you have direct competition with royal enfield 350..... Royal enfield showrooms are on every city despite comparing the honda big wing showrooms which aren't.
Being a cb350 user and a ex Royal Enfield 350 user (1994 CI engine) , I would really congratulate Royal Enfield team to get their quality comparable to a Honda !! 😊😊
Classic 350 fits the most places, but the best Classic 350 available right now is sold through BigWing showrooms. So wait another quarter for the latest Classic 350
Even if there is one Honda Big wing in one city then also it will be wise to go for Honda purely for the quality and peace of mind. There are rare occasions when Honda vehicles develop a fault "out of the blue" if regular servicing/maintenance is done. With RE's nothing is guaranteed even with the best of care and timely service, one can ask any RE owner. One turns out half mechanic and constantly doing some kind of "Jugaad" to come out of an unpleasant situation on rides.
What I think? I think that a non Indian national presenter would've been slightly less biased. All else being equal I'm a fan of Honda's quality. I'm getting the CB 350 when I return to Vietnam in the fall.
I'm an Enfield fan from the day I rode a Bullet 500.. I'll always go to the highways on an Enfield..Bikes will come and go but the Enfield will shine forever..
Actually RE is bought for its vibrations. When you sit on it and turn on the ingnition the vibrations connects you with it. May in long ride u get back ache but 90% of bikes are sold for its name sound and it's vibration or simply to say for daily small commute . Am not a RE fan but it's the fact. I booked meteor because I am from those 10% people left who buy RE . 😂 Nice review well done 👍
Well I don't see what logic you have used to score the bikes overall. If Imperiale is scoring more than Highness or Meteor in terms of styling, the eyes of the judge needs a checkup tbh. And in the value section, we can clearly see that Honda is best in segment in most of the other fields, so I'm not quite sure if the computations you people did are accurate or if the meaning of VALUE differs from people to people. It just doesn't make sense.
There is something about the looks of CB350 that tugs your heart. Reminds me so much of Triumph retro bikes. Especially this blue two tone variant looks awesome. PS: Ever since 30 Sep, I've so smitten by this bike that my you tube search starts with the words "CB350" every day. Haha😂
I recommend Bullet Standard because you will never ride speeds upwards of 120 all the time, unless you are a highway freak. Keep it moving between 90 and 100 kmph, with the thump and comfort, and at a substantially lower price compared to these, an all-metal, no-frills truly classic design, it truly is value for money; looks stunning to say the least.
Of all the bikes here, I STILL love the looks of Classic. Its a decade old design and STILL LOOKS SOO DAMN AWESOME P.S. I love only the design of classic 350 :P
If are watching this video lower than 720p you're just listening 🎧. Exclusively premium cinematic review providing ample information to make the buying decision. 💥🙌 KUDOS!
That point difference will flip once that engine launches with new classic 350. Startled with tall gearing on honda nullifying its torque output of 30 nm. Still sensible verdict. As always brilliant comparison❤️
What is not going to flip is spongy brakes on RE, rust spots here & there, niggles, lower mileage, higher weight etc. Mark my words, CB will remain better bike to buy & own in long run.
@@kimphilbi9109 I partially agree with you but with twins re has improved its production quality which i believe will benefit newer products like meteor in long run.
@@MultiPunjabi It is too tall task for them to match Honda. They can’t match Honda is such short time. They’ve been caught off guard & now will hurry to bridge the gap. This won’t happen in few months.
Between Honda cb350 and meteor 350 which is the one to buy? This will be my 1st bike. There will be city commute mostly with long distance travel once or twice a month. Please suggest.

Looks like CB350 is the way to go. Ride and handling, fuel economy, traction control, lighter weight and the exhaust note
I've bought the CB and am quiet happy with it. The only problem in my opinion is the frequent gear shifts at lower speeds
Neat, no nonsense, clear, sensible review. Probably the only reviewer who is doing good
Last point that he made was bang on. It's buying experience and after sales and service. Honda 350 is not available in every city. I couldn't even get a test ride. Finally booked Meteor 350.
Absolutely correct
I heard bingwings expanding to 50 stores by march 21
Very good decision, welcome to the RE World
@@prateetbole4334 thank you :)
Fool
Have seen many reviews, and no one lays it down as you do, mate! You're, in my books, the best bike reviewer on youtube in India.
I will definitely look at the Honda now. I don't wanna go for a RE just for the sake of classic and crowd attraction. Honda looks more like a complete package to me. No offense to any RE bike.
Same here highness🔥🔥🔥
@@explorerwandererwanderer8270 yeah bro end of the day it's our money and we have the right to take our own decision
What if Yamaha brings back the 'RD350' just to play spoilsport😜
Yamaha has lost its old charm ....I don't think it would impact much infront of RE and honda.
Now that would definitely be a good day!
I have booked honda highness but trust me i am going to cancel it if yamaha brings back the RD350..
u got it right it would be an interesting fight
Will be overpriced even if they bring it

@@knitinpatel absolutely right. RE are know for niggles & rust. Except for this review all others have conveniently ignored this point.
Totally agree brother .. paid media it is.. in fact they should have put efforts to make the customer satisfaction more better. better listener
Yeah look at powerdrift. They are trying hard to downplay CB350 and promote Meteor.
Meteor looks like cross between Thunderbird and Avenger and the fake media outlets are trying to hail its design as the next best thing. Lol.
Hell Yeah bro😉
Duk duk is important but at the same time Vibration free is most important than duk duk😂😂
Being a TB 350X user, I agree with your verdict. Yes, the CB 350 is the better bike, but Meteor 350 is going to rule 🔥
Bro I am using meteor 350 since one week, I am getting 35 kmpl milleage, how come you are getting 24kmpl
How is the vibrations and engine heating bro
You're right bro💯
Yes me too bro 34-36
Coz, he is not a fanboy😊
I got 40 on highway bro... I have stellar black Meteor 350... Its good... My uncle has Honda Highness, now he is sad about his decision of choosing Highness over Meteor...
Sir, one of my friends bought meteor 350 , he gets at least 35 kmpl in city after service and 41 kmpl in highway .
Major reason why I didn't go for the CB: Requires constant gearshifts and I wasn't sure about the aftersales experience. However, I absolutely love how the bike performs, looks, LED lights... and ofcourse the price!
Wow, beautiful timelapse video at 2:13, showing reflection of clouds above in CB350😍👌
Loved the comprehensive, detailed review and the way it is summarised! Kudos! 😁
The cruiser feel of the meteor is accentuated more on the supernova varient which has both the windscreen as well as the backrest and more chrome elements . Fireball gives quite a neo retro upright feel IMO unless off course you sit on it.
Truly deserves a 👍
Truly very well made video with detailed information and the level of comparision was just amazing.. OVERDRIVE the underdog
You lucky Indian's....RE or Honda,RE or Honda...very difficult to choose...Ive allready have a Honda Shadow ace 1999 750 model..and highway speed is not importent to me...Great review :)
Superior review thanks bro.
And I bought meter 350 I have got 40kmpl overal mileage. I have crossed 4000 kms overall
The camera you're using has made a world of a difference to this review ❤️
Rohit's reviews are far better from rest. Autocar & Powerdrift is good but, Overdrive is much Better.
At 9:25 music seems to be the same that's used in Powerdrift
Autocar comparison was poor they were just hyping Meteor
Autocar is the most shortest and shittiest of all.
I think the decision of making hness only available through bigwings is actually a very good decision.i don't want everyone to get this bike. Like RE can be seen in every gali mohalla now.

😂😂🙌
But Honda don't want to do that
Best comparison video by far ! Kudos team to Overdrive and a special shout for Rohit. Well done 👍
Mileage for meteor is very much wrong i hope you get it checked again.
Yeh definitely!!! I hear that customer mileage is 35- 40 km/ltr in city conditions
Honda because of smoothness and sound 🔊
Perfect ...
Appreciate your unbiased review
Kudos
Finally a true honest comparison
Fabulous review sir 👌❤️
Covered most of the aspects 👍
Nothing better then OVERDRIVE review.. i choose Honda... Going to book one today.
RD 350 , you will be missed forever ❤️ .
Had one in my grandfather's home 🙏 . First ride was that❤️
I have a big wing showroom near me- within 900mtrs.
So is it Wise to choose the CB350 over METEOR?
Daily city commutes and occasional weekend rides are my priority
You lucky bastard.... I'd go for Honda with my eyes closed.. It's just an impeccable bike 😭❤️
You have to go for honda
No doubt the Honda. You are very lucky indeed to have store near you AND that you mostly ride around the city.
Stock exhaust sound of CB350 👌👌👌 force's me to go for it.
Hness is the worth the hype
- Haha, not at all
Definitely is
@@rohitkejriwal1 why not?
Lol Nice joke
@@rohitkejriwal1 dude.. Your taste might be different.. Don't disrespect na Macha

@@vishal5679 same here bro
Everybody complaining about the tall gearing of Honda, but actually it makes the bike more fuel efficient in the highway than any other 350s 😏!
Unbiased review 👍 and good explanation with last by giving points.
Hness is baap in terms of exhaust note❤️
In terms of everything
Being a cb350 user and a ex Royal Enfield 350 user (1994 CI engine) , I would really congratulate Royal Enfield team to get their quality comparable to a Honda !! 😊😊
Kudos to you for such unbiased review & an excellent comparison. Thanks for showing guts to include Classic 350 in the comparison. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
A very great detailed review. 👍 But should have included the Jawa as well to complete the segment.
Am a meteor Fan but Look wise Classic 350 got no comparison!
Best in it's class!
Waiting for its new version with the meteor engine ❤️
Honda highness practically 👍
Classic 350 with updated engine and chassis from meteor will become the nightmare for every bike in this segment once launched..
True.. it will kill all vibration and will increase top speed to 130kmph
Classic 350 fits the most places, but the best Classic 350 available right now is sold through BigWing showrooms. So wait another quarter for the latest Classic 350
CB350 H'ness has my vote. Happy to exchange my RE for CB350 if any RE fan is interested.
Honda anyday over RE when it comes to Engine quality.
Not just engine quality
All over quality is better in honda
In every way except rear tyre Honda is best...
Even if there is one Honda Big wing in one city then also it will be wise to go for Honda purely for the quality and peace of mind. There are rare occasions when Honda vehicles develop a fault "out of the blue" if regular servicing/maintenance is done.

Booked Meteor with all additional accessories like exhaust foot pegs beige custom colour guards etc
What's on road price
The best comparo-review if them all. Thank you so much guys.
Headlights man, please talk about it too. why is not an important aspect of the review??
I have done it for the RE and Jawa. You may want to take a look. Otherwise, this comparison was was faultless.
@@RealAutoReviews great job buddy!
I love a thumper! I like how all of them look! But I would rather have the Husqvarna 401 svartpilen instead of these.
It is Imperiale that looks truly classic and understated and elegant in every aspect, only matched by Bullet Standard.

RE classic is timeless design. It fits best in the 4 scenario described by u. The other one could be the Meteor 350 with it's matching classic looks.

7:49 🤣 On most bikes, you feel the vibration. On the RE classic, you see the vibration.
Not in meteor 350
Everything's vibrating like hell
hahahhahahahahahaha
No bullshit......real comparison done here.
Good job overdrive ❤️
Is it True that Meteor gets that much less mileage than CB350?
It is true. Check the weight & you would know why. Besides Honda are the masters of making low friction engines.
But so many tests show that it has about 35.6 in city
Excellent comparison now i know which suits me well thanks so much
Meteor good for twisty Mountain roads?

The Imperiale just released here in the Philippines, however, news are starting to emerge about quality issues like, center stand grinding the chain, improper installation of the side stand being extended way too much that the unit is leaning dangerously to the side, failed batteries and other electrical issues. Benelli of course is quick to address these issues with quick repairs, unit replacement and even outright refunds but issues like these really hurt product performance because, ideally, you’d want an almost perfect product launch. It seems Benelli still has a quite a lot to do if it wants to compete with the likes of Royal Enfield.
