Hey, Thanks for the video. This really helped in making my decision for not buying this beautiful machine because of my riding interest and styles I am someone who like to cruise around 120-130 in highway long rides. Which bikes do you suggest where I can expect mileage around 28-32 in that speeds? I have v-strom 250, speed 400 and KTM Adv 250 in my mind😊
Hello, Abhijith. Thank you for your time. At the speeds you mentioned, none of the motorcycles you mentioned will return a mileage of 28-32 kmpl. Still your best bet would be the Suzuki V-Strom 250. Consider this - Fuel Consumption for V-Strom 250 : 39 kilometres per litre (92 mpg‑US; 110 mpg‑imp) at 60 km/h
@@StallionRides Maybe True. But I believe speed 400 would give me somewhere around 25 with that speed but with Honda, it would be around 20-22 with 120. Because recently I had taken a rented Highness for a long tour (1400kms total), out of which >60% was a very good highway (NH 44) and I was riding continuously around 105-110 ( could not cross 110 because of speed limit of the rental agreement). In total trip, I got an average around 26 while my Friend's Dominar 400 gave 28. May be I should lower my expectation from 28 to 25.
@@StallionRides I think bikes like Dominar 400 are meant to be ridden at 100 - 120kmph and hence it gives better mileage than Highness at the same speed. Many reviews tell that.
Why dont you shift to 5th gear in highways its an overdrive gear and its meant for Cruising so then would you get a better mileage and also I'm planning to buy this next month just curious about your opinion on this
@@mahivasan1632 On 5th gear, below speeds of 100kmph, the motorcycle lacks power and control, it’s for cruising as you rightly mentioned. I don’t like cruising, I like riding with speed variations and control. Also, if you cruise at 110kmph on the 5th gear you will not get a good mileage. You will need to cruise at 80kmph on the odo, and with the odo speed error you are doing only 72kmph in reality, so distance covered vs. time goes for a huge toss on long rides.
@@StallionRides I never knew all these things even after watching hundreds of reviews thanks bud I'm enlightened by the way I'm purchasing this month and this will be my first owned bike 🤌
Himalayan's mileage will be less than CB350 RS, any day. Baba, this motorcycle offers good mileage, it's just that in most motorcycles I have ridden, the mileage goes significantly down if you are riding at higher speeds and give abrupt throttle responses. If mileage is also a concern during long rides, go with the Avenger 220 cruise, it is such an underrated machine (worst for off-roading okay, for good roads, it's awesome)
@@funnyleone4956 arrey wahh! Congratulations, baba So in 2018, I took the Himalayan on a ride to Kanatal, Uttarakhand. I absolutely love the seating position and the looks, truly. But, every single day I experienced 1 or the other issue with the motorcycle, sometimes break fail, sometimes an engine oil leak, sometimes a fuel pump error.. and later a puncture that no mechanic would want to fix- it is difficult to put the tires back in the Himalayan due to the disc design so a very few mechanics will actually touch it. I'm only sharing my experience, baba. I know a lot has changed since 2018..but yeah.
@@drbhushansali If you ask me today, I will pick the Scrambler 400x, only to experience the speed. For long term reliability, I will choose the Honda any day.
Riding at 90-95kmph on my inty 650, I get between 29-33kmpl. 100-105kmph... smooth acceleration below rpm 4200, I get 28-30 kmpl. Mine crossed 20000 km last week.
I've noticed that you were constantly on 4th gear doing 100KPH..Why not upshift to 6th for cruising and downshift again if necessary for overtaking...I'm sure cruising at 6th gear will deliver better milage as compared to 4th on 100-110KPH
What about Dominar 400 for speed crusing. Do you recommend Dominar 400 , please share thoughts for Dominar 400 , big fan of yours and please reply, i am confused between honda highness and dominar
Hello there. Yes, please. Dominar 400 is an extremely capable motorcycle. Dominar will be faster but the Highness will be comfortable. Dominar will return less mileage than the Highness. The tank range of Dominar is less than the Highness. Honda’s reliability will be a big plus over long journeys. Dominar does not offer 19 inch front wheel that glides over potholes. The breaks of the Highness are also superior than the Dominar. Highness will be a better option with a pillion too. If Speed is one of your concerns, go with the Dominar. The Highness in my opinion is better than the Dominar in every other aspect.
@@StallionRides sir now I am clear ki go honda , can you you suggest cb350 or cb highness 350 , bahut confusing ho gya hai in dono me ab new Honda cb350 launch hui hai wo ya Honda highness 350
Hello, Praveen. I have used XP95, in fact I fill the tank with XP95 once every 3 months. I have noticed better acceleration, smoother throttle response and a better feeling overall (like the motorcycle was breathing better).. did not notice much difference in the mileage or top speed though.
Very useful video, this gives a much better understanding of this bike regarding fuel economy than the 1 litre tests. I have a Honda unicorn 160 from 8 years and last year I did a 1200km Bangalore Goa and return trip with max speed of 95 at times but mostly 70 to 90, got a mileage of 50kmpl. 12 litre tank and did 2 tank fills only, HP power petrol. Now if I upgrade to this bike, which I'm seriously thinking of, then I thought I would be able to do slightly higher speeds and get 40kmpl but looks like I won't. My bike weighs only 134kg, 2015 160 unicorn. This bike is 45kg heavier. That's the whole deal. The lack of fatigue due to the bigger wheels will perhaps get compensated by handling a much heavier bike. So overall, suddenly it's not making much sense to me sadly. Maybe RS drinks more petrol than highness because of the fatter rear tyre, more friction?!. That would be an interesting comparison to look out for I guess. Nice videos, nice voice, lovely camera and views 😎
Such an insightful comment. Thank you, Srinath 😀 One thing I can guarantee, you will be less tired and cover distance faster on highways as compared to Unicorn. Of course, mileage will go for a toss.

Gixxer and r15 are not suitable for me due to aggresive ride stance. CB350 series ticks most boxes. Same goes for mavrick 440. Even open for avenger cruise but torque is very less.
@@anindan51ahah Yes, this motorcycle is suitable for you. At 5’7 you should be able to manage the motorcycle well, please take a test ride though to check if you feel comfortable with both feet not planted on the road.
Not hating on you, but expecting 'good mileage' at a speed of 110kmph or 120kmph is unfair in my opinion. I rode from Hyderabad to Pune on my Highness at an average speed of 95-110kmph and the mileage I got was around 32.5 to 34kmpl. But as you have shown in your video, mileage of 30kmpl is decent for an average speed of more than 110
You are right, baba. Duke does a 150kmph easily, sure it returns less mileage but the ease at which it reaches 150 or maintains 150 is amazing. CB350 RS takes a while to reach high speeds. I mean I do not mind the low mileage if the motorcycle does high speeds without much effort.
@@RidewithJoy1 Wow. That is impressive. Absolutely, we can extract the best mileage if we ride within 80 kmph. Thank you for sharing. Are you suggesting that there is an error with the odometer reading?
Hello, Shubham. Thank you for sharing your ownership experience of the CB350 RS. True that, 28-34 is what we get if we ride a little spiritedly. Cheers!

Hello, Sunny. Thank you for sharing. You seem to know how to extract the best mileage from this motorcycle 😁
@@disco3758 I drove at 80 ~ 90kmph, on 5th gear. Keep your RPM low at higher speeds, it will get you great mileage.
