Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has introduced the 2023 CB300R, their Neo Sports Café Roadster. Designed for sheer riding enjoyment and ownership delight, the 2023 Honda CB300R is now available for booking at the nearest BigWing dealership, priced at ₹2,40,000 (ex-showroom, Delhi).
2023 Honda CB300R Design and Features:
The 2023 CB300R draws its design inspiration from the iconic retro-themed CB1000R litre-class roadster while delivering a modern minimalist interpretation of the timeless roadster design. It showcases a robust fuel tank and a muscular upswept exhaust, embodying the neo sports café DNA. The style quotient is further elevated by an all-LED lighting system, including a round LED headlamp, LED winkers, and LED tail lamp.
Weighing a mere 146kg, the CB300R is the lightest motorcycle in its class, promising agile handling. This is complemented by 41mm USD front forks and an adjustable mono-shock absorber at the rear, making it perfectly suited for the diverse terrains of Indian roads. Stopping power comes from the 296mm disc brake at the front and a 220mm disc at the rear, both equipped with dual-channel ABS as standard. The motorcycle also features a fully digital instrument cluster, an emergency stop signal, and a hazard light switch for added safety.
Honda CB300R Engine and Performance:
At the heart of the new Honda CB300R beats a robust 286.01cc, 4-stroke, single-cylinder BSVI OBD2A compliant PGM-FI engine, now more environmentally friendly than ever. This powerhouse generates 30.7 bhp of power and 27.5 Nm of torque, ensuring a thrilling ride through city streets and winding roads. The CB300R is paired with a 6-speed gearbox and equipped with an assist slipper clutch for smoother gear shifts and rear wheel lock-up management during aggressive downshifting, ultimately enhancing rider safety.
