The Honda CB350 H'ness is the Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer's attempt to grab a chunk of the bulging 350 cc motorcycle segment in the Indian market, where Royal Enfield holds a lion's share with its range of products. The primary rival of the Honda CB350 H'ness is the Royal Enfield Classic 350, which is one of the bestselling motorcycles in India of all time.
Both these two motorcycles cater to those customers who seek to buy a retro-themed motorcycle that offers great value for money, and can be equally capable of handling regular commuting requirements as well as highway rides.
Here is a quick comparison of the monthly EMI payable for both the Honda CB350 H'ness and the Royal Enfield Classic 350.
