The Honda CB300F is the most affordable and sportier-looking alternative to the CB300R in India.
The styling cues are inspired by the Honda CB500F roadster and it gets aggressive bodywork and sharp creases all over. The design elements comprise a single-pod headlight, a muscular fuel tank, split-style seats, and a side-slung exhaust. Then, the feature list includes full-LED lighting, a digital instrument cluster, traction control, and dual-channel ABS. Plus, the Bluetooth module brings features such as call alerts, music controls, and voice navigation.
The mechanical specifications include an OBD2-compliant, 293cc, oil-cooled, four-valve, SOHC engine that develops 23.8bhp and 25.6Nm of peak torque. The motor is linked to a six-speed gearbox and it benefits from a slipper and assist clutch mechanism.
The suspension setup includes upside-down front forks and a preload-adjustable rear mono-shock while the braking hardware comprises a 276mm front disc and a 220mm rear disc – both grabbed by Nissin-sourced calipers.
Honda launched the CB300F in India in August 2022 with a starting price of Rs 2.26 lakh (ex-showroom) but gave it a massive price cut a few months later.
Honda CB300F is available in the following colours in India.

For the price would be nice if they included the 3 required Allen wrenches for installation, but that's not what my complaint is about. I searched for a screen that would fit my bike specifically and this resulted. I have the 2023 Rebel 500 ABS SE version and if you have the SE version I would not recommend buying this as it does not fit smoothly over the cowl headlight. I got it on, but barely. Not sure I will keep it for long. Also, the small screws that hold the windscreen to the attachments aren't the best quality- had some slippage before they finally 'grabbed' and hopefully the screen doesn't go flying off when I'm riding. 3 stars based on looks only. The smoked version looks very sleek and I like the low profile. Just misleading that it says it will fit the 2023 SE version and it clearly does not.

Best bikes from Honda for Indian driving style
2 weeks ago
Praveen Rajendran
Honda Cb300F with flex-fuel gives more adaptability to riders and bike ride handling with an exceptional cruise is very good giving more mileage than expected ideally it can be used for riding with Family people where they can get more racing experience. It's a better bike than expected genuinely.

Pros-mileage(city28-32,highway40-45), looks, riding posture, maintenance cost.Cons- Stalling issue, very bad plastic quality, no leg guard, no radiator guard, no middle stand, and trust me these are very essential things, vibrations, and weak braking compared to other brands. Like ktm, hero, bajaj.The worst thing-parts the availability waiting period can be a few months to a year.

The bike is a pleasure to ride, especially in the city, it has great lows and mids that combined with its light 155 kg of weight and good ground clearance make it great at riding in traffic and it’s very “Flickable”. It also has a great seat height of 785mm making it very comfortable for shorter and/or fatter people like me. The riding posture is amazing, it has a riding posture.

Best bike for Bangalore city driving- mileage and power
3 weeks ago
Arshad Arbaaz
Have owned this bike for 1 month now and it has been a great experience so far. It glides through Bangalore city traffic comfortably and gives a decent mileage of 32km+ in traffic. The engine does not get as hot as other 400+cc bikes available in the market. And it also has enough power if I want to drive it a little spiritedly. I am glad that I made this decision after test-riding several 300+cc bikes.

The buying experience was good from the Honda Bigwing Mira Road Showroom. This is the best bike in its range, with ample torque in the low and mid-range which is good for city rides, and gives out the decent average for a 300cc bike. The engine seems to be reliable, of course, being Honda, however, there are some vibrations on the handles and footpegs after crossing peak torque of 5,500 rpm. The suspension is on the stiffer side but that offers great stability on highways. The riding stance is quite upright and the rider's seat is fairly comfortable. Pillion seat comfort is not that great. The bike has great maneuverability so getting through traffic is easy. Overall, a great bike for someone who likes a light torque machine.

This machine is a proper upgrade for me from Gixxer 150
15 weeks ago
Sivakumar
I bought this machine in June 2024. Till now I have ridden 3500 km. Honda's big wing dealer delivered the bike on the promised date. The dealership was very pleasant. I already owned a Gixxer 150. This machine is a proper upgrade for me from Gixxer 150. The city ride is a blast. Handles well. Torque made this machine lovable. Mine is grey. looks calm. The only thing is... so-called YouTubers made this machine flop. They simply ride for a while and make silly judgments. For the price what is offered now is an excellent proportion for value and thrill. If ride aggressively I get 33kmph. If I ride normally..this machine gives me 39kmph. Overall I am very satisfied with cb300f. Most YouTubers don't know why this cb300f was launched. They directly compared with ktms, pulsar. Cb300f is a performance commuter. Very well adapted for day-to-day rides On the highway I reached 130kmph and maintained for long stretches. No problem at all. Due to high torque in low and mid-range... its top speed is limited. In practice, we need good low and mid-end torque in day-to-day rides. No option for the center stand is the only concern. Overall it's a very well-balanced machine.

Clean chain n chain sprocket with chain cleaner and put chain lube every 750 kms. It's easy . Maintain air pressure promptly. Check every 2 weeks once.

Good Motorcycle with Horrendous Build Quality.
1 year ago
Vishwa Deepak Dwivedi
Well, it's been more than 6 months living with this motorcycle and I am having a love-hate relationship with it to be honest. I purchased it from Honda Bigwing Ghaziabad and my buying experience was butter smooth. Credits to the Bigwing Ghaziabad Team for that. The motorcycle looks decently good - passively aggressive and I love it that way. Although it resembles Hornet 2.0 to some extent, this motorcycle has its own charm. It rides amazing with comfortable riding posture and the gearshifts are butter smooth. Tyres offer adequate grip and gives you confidence. Now the cons and I have a lot to share. The first thing is the build quality. I am not sure what Honda was planning. The bike is all plastic (read cheap quality plastic) with horrendous fit and finish. I say 'Horrendous' because it stands nowhere close if we compare it with KTMs and modern REs. The shrouds on the tank is very delicate. The clutch lever (although it has slipper clutch) is feeble with too much of free-play. Also, the vibrations on handlebars and foot-pegs at > 6000 RPM is something that irritates you but you have to live with it. Rear brakes lack the bite but after riding for around 6000 KMs, I am used to it. Also, since the bike is very light in weight, it is not very stable at high speeds. I am not complaining about engine specifications and performance, but Honda could have done much better. Had they done it, they would not have to sell the bike at a discounted price. It would have sold like hotcakes, but Honda did what they do the best these days, disappoint their loyal customers. I had a Honda Unicorn and Hornet 160R in the past and my dad used to ride Honda Shine, but after this, I'm never going back to Honda again.

Worst experience
1 year ago
Javid
The buying experience was normal.The riding experience has been pathetic really. At lower rpms you can get vibrations everywhere and the engine heats up badly and in no time even after the first service.The exhaust pipe gets so hot as you could smell some burning wires and in rainy seasons smoke can be seen coming out thru your wiser and people around you tell you that turn it off something is burning.The issue is with all the buyers who bought it at a discounted price.Servicing in okhla new delhi is the worst part of it. They have 0 knowledge about its mechanics.Pros, just a sitting posture that's it.Rest all goes in cons.

The bike riding quality is good, the worst part is the engine, I have not even driven 1500 km but I'm getting some weird noise in that engine even honda mechanics couldn't understand it & I have started getting rust issues in my bike within one month after purchase, to be honest, this is not premium honda at all if you wanna buy premium spend extra and go for rr 310 or ninja 300, honda lost its quality completely, now they are just making some plastics with a faulty engine.
