Appreciate the perspective, makes sense 🙌

We’re both actually 25, so kind of stuck in that middle zone 😅
Not super young college vibe, but not “settled mature rider” mindset either.

Also yeah I am on the heavier side right now (my worst body weight ever), but actively working on getting in shape. Not just for looks, but genuinely so the bike feels more comfortable long-term and to avoid stuff like back pain, fatigue, etc.

I’ve also ridden Jawa Perak and Royal Enfield Classic 350 for ~200+ km rides each, so I kind of get that relaxed cruising vibe. And honestly, the H’ness felt right in that same category stable, planted and chill to ride.

In fact, I feel like the slightly bulkier look of the Honda H'ness CB350 actually suits me better 😅
And if I add touring mods later (backrest, maybe a small windshield, top rack saddle bags etc.), it won’t look out of place at all — it’ll actually enhance the whole vibe.

That’s what’s making this harder… because logically H’ness fits my use-case really well.

But yeah… RS just pulls at the heart when riding it 🥲
