Good driving experience very good mileage, bike quality is really good, parts are easily availble, and service cost is reasonable.
Value for money, no regrets after buying must buying product, the product in the budget.
I was a user of Royal Enfeild Classic 350 (Gun matal grey 2018) I found it very difficult to drive it for long distances due to vibration and on wet conditions braking was a problem. I switched to Honda H’ness 350 early this year and I am happy about my decision. I will give an overall rating of 8.5 out of 10.Pros:1. Smooth handling 2. Excellent braking and drivability in Kerala’s rainy conditions. 3. Good mileage (Avg 41-42)4. Riding comfort and reliability. Cons: 1. Initial difficulties with tall gearing 2.Placement of horn and indicator switches 3. Poor Headlight visibility in dark and wet conditions.
I like my own bike. It's good for me also and this is best for all kind of lower class or middle class family.
Its mileage is awesome, and it has a classy look. Best ride for students, with the best price and best performance.

A brief history of HMSI (Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India)
The beginnings of Honda can be traced back all the way to the end of World War II, where Soichiro Honda decided to mount a former Imperial Army generator engine to a bicycle to produce affordable and efficient mobility for the masses of war-ravaged Japan. Soon Honda became a manufacturer of bicycle auxiliary engines and in the years that followed, started producing proper world class motorcycles. But it was the 1954 Honda Super Cub that really shot the company to global acclaim. The Super Cub is important even in the Indian context as a motor derived from the Cub became the mainstay of the Japanese company’s joint venture with Hero in India.
Honda of Japan entered India back in 1984 with two main tie-ups. One with Hero to produce small capacity 4-stroke commuter motorcycles such as the Hero Honda CD100, which featured a “sloper” motor derived from the Cub. The other was with Pune-based Kinetic Motors to produce what would be India’s first automatic scooter, the 2-stroke Kinetic Honda DX. But the Japanese bike maker parted ways with Kinetic in 1998 and entered India as Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honda Motor Company, Japan. It was then they launched their own automatic scooter, the 4-stroke Activa, which quickly became the company’s best selling bike and India’s best selling scooter, and remains so till date.
At the same time, HMSI also started making motorcycles, one of the most popular of which was the Honda Unicorn, and later the Honda Shine. It was in 2011 that the joint venture between Hero and Honda ended and both companies went their separate ways. While Hero continued to enjoy record breaking sales with the Splendor (originally a Hero Honda bike), it was the Activa (and also the Shine to a certain extent) that elevated HMSI to the position of 2nd largest 2-wheeler maker in India. In 2020, HMSI also took on the might of the Royal Enfield Classic 350 with their own classic motorcycle, the H’ness CB350.
Today, HMSI offers a range of Indian manufactured 110-125cc scooters, 110-350cc motorcycles and even CKD and CBU big bikes such as the CBR650R Fireblade, Africa Twin and even the mammoth tourer, the Gold Wing.
