I’m stuck between the CB350RS and Scram 440 and would love to hear from people who have ridden either or both. I’m primarily looking for a daily city bike, with occasional long rides and weekend tours. I commute around 26km every day through peak Bangalore traffic, and the roads aren’t exactly great either, with plenty of potholes, broken stretches and stop-and-go traffic. I had initially shortlisted the CB350RS because I really liked its character, relaxed nature, thump, refinement and mileage. It feels like a bike I’d genuinely enjoy riding every day. However, I felt it was slightly lacking when I needed to make quick overtakes or manoeuvre through gaps in traffic. It isn’t necessarily slow, but it doesn’t feel particularly eager when you need that extra shove. Then I rode the Scram 440, and that’s where the dilemma started. I absolutely loved its character and the way it delivers power. It felt much easier to make quick overtakes and manoeuvre through traffic. The seating position and suspension also felt significantly better suited to Bangalore’s terrible roads. On the other hand, I’m still drawn to the CB350RS because I really like its overall feel and calmer, more relaxed character. So, which one would you pick for this kind of usage? I’d especially appreciate feedback from anyone who has owned or ridden both.
From what you've told us, it seems like you're leaning more towards the Royal Enfield Scram 440, so we'd suggest you go with that bike. The Scram can be a relaxed and mellow machine when you want to just cruise, but if you need the added power to make an overtake, it fares better than the Honda CB350RS. An added bonus is that the Scram is more comfortable over bad roads because of its ADV lineage.
I currently own a Pulsar 220 and am planning to buy a new bike. I am confused between the Honda CB350 RS and the Triumph T4. I have test-ridden both bikes. The T4 feels more comfortable and powerful, but its mileage is quite low. Please suggest which one would be the better choice.
Fuel economy isn't set in stone and is a facet of the bike that depends on various factors. How you ride, what condition the bike's mechanicals are in, whether tyre pressure is within the prescribed limits, surrounding weather and traffic, and many more. In our experience, the Triumph Speed T4 has returned better fuel economy than the Speed 400 in pretty much all situations. And we suspect the new 349cc engine is near-certain to be even more fuel efficient than the 399cc version we tested.That being said, the Honda CB350RS is a machine that is one of the most fuel-efficient in its class, and given that its motor makes lower output, it's likely to be more economical than the Speed T4. While fuel economy is undoubtedly an important factor in a vehicle's purchase decision, especially in today's inflationary times. We recommend you take the overall picture of the bike into consideration before finalising your choice.
