      Honda CB350 RS is a very reliable bike in city as well as highway. Best thing about this bike is its engine, this 350 cc engine is the smoothest machine. I have ever rode. You will never complain about the power as well. As this bike has 350 cc engine you cannot expect average economy more than 35 to 40 kmpl which is very good for this segment of bike. If I talk about comfort, seat is not so good you have to add extra cusion on seat. Over all it is a good choice if you need a 350 cc segment bike which is better than Royal Enfield Classic 350 at a similar pricing.
