The Honda Highness 350, also known as the H’ness CB350, is a motorbike that has won the hearts of riders with its traditional appearance and modern amenities. It’s a bike that stands out from the crowd not just for its appearance, but also for its performance and dependability.

While many bikes are there in this segment with same classic retro style look like Royal Enfield Bullet 350 and many more. Still this bike holds top notch reliability and refinement. With very less vibrations and really good engine with good torque makes it a machine reliable for both city and highway rides.

However, does this product still hold these statements? Lets find out.

Design and Visual appeal: Honda Highness 350

The Honda Highness 350 has a vintage look that pays respect to the great bikes of the past. Its chrome embellishments and well-crafted bodywork convey a timeless charm that appeals to both young and experienced riders. While the color schemes are very versatile Honda highness 350 also have really fantastic styling.

The sleek design of the Highness350 with slight chrome finish on engine outer shell looks very fantastic. With fit and finish Honda did fabulous job and did really well. The long exhaust from the bike and even its bend pipe does not show any lacking in fit and finish. While in videos and in pictures people may think that this bike is not for very tall riders.

But this notion is very wrong to think about because Highness 350 has seat height of around 800mm. Which is more than enough. If a rider’s height is less than 5 foot 6 inches he/she may feel like this bike is very tall and very difficult to handle.  The seat is quiet hard but it is good enough for the long rides.

Performance and Dynamics

The engine consist of 348cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that delivers smooth power and torque. The Honda Highness 350 is designed in such a way that rider will get a balance between performance and efficiency. This makes it really great for highway tours and city commutes.

The Highness 350 is powered by a sleek 348cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine that produces smooth power and torque. The bike’s state of tune is meant to provide a combination of performance and efficiency, making it an excellent choice for both city commuting and extended trips. The refinement of the engine is really good. In 3rd gear the bike can touch the speed of 100kmph. With 4th gear cruising becomes really smooth.

Honda Highness 350 is rev loving motorcycle.  Because even on the top end the vibrations are little but the performance is really good. Whether rider has to overtake at high speed or cruise on highway. This bike is do it all. The performance of the engine gives another level of character to the design as well. It’s the character of the engine that is really strong. Low end torque and mid end torque of the bike feels really good. High end may not have much performance but the refinement on top end is still present.

Comfort and Ergonomics

Special attention given to comfort and ergonomics of the Highness 350. The seat is really well padded but the stiffness is still present in seat. While riding on longer distances rider might feel that seat is very irritating especially in start of the ride but once rider get used to the seat its not a bad setup. While riding longer distances soft seats get pressed due to long sitting hours on bike that’s why I think that generally seat must be little harder.

The handle bar placing and foot peg positioning are in really commanding posture and have really great feel to it. Wide handlebars helps in comfortable riding. The handling is so smooth that it glides through the traffic. The gearing is quite tall and rider might feel the need to shift gears very frequently. Which is fine since it increases the efficiency.

Modern features and Safety

Despite Highness 350 look of classic retro bike. This bike is loaded with good amount of modern features. One of the major feature which takes it out of its competition is Traction Control. In Indian motorcycle market traction control is still not available in many 350cc motorcycle.

Next is Dual-channel ABS which ensures that even when you are doing panic braking the bike do not skid and the safety of rider can be ensured. Bluetooth connectivity is another feature to check notifications or any missed call while you are riding.

Service Experience

With Highness 350 one thing can be ensured that rider is paying for premium product. One can expect that they will get premium experience while servicing the bike. While this is true one thing is to note that this Highness 350 is only available in Honda Bigwing showrooms only. That’s why rider must check whether Honda Bigwing is available in their city or not.

Conclusion

If any rider that wants to buy a bike that can do everything whether its taking the bike in city for daily chores or taking on relaxing highway rides then this bike is for you.  It’s a bike that promises to provide a riding experience that is both pleasurable and reliable. Whether you’re riding through metropolitan streets or exploring broad highways, the Highness 350 is a reliable friend that will give a smooth and pleasant journey.

For those wishing to have the best of both worlds—the elegance of traditional style and the ease of current technology—the Highness 350 is an appealing option. It is a motorbike that honors the history of the past while embracing the innovations of the present, making it a standout in its class.
