Eye catchy and very good
1 day ago
Aman Gupta
The Honda CBR300R is a lightweight, beginner-friendly motorcycle with a single-cylinder engine that offers good value for the money:
Engine: The 286cc liquid-cooled engine delivers smooth, predictable power, and the lightweight clutch pull reduces stress in city traffic. However, some say the engine performance is modest compared to competitors.
Handling: The bike's lightweight design and responsive suspension make it fun and nimble to ride, especially around town.
Braking: The CBR300R offers great braking performance.
Design: The bike has a neo-retro design with a round headlight, muscular bodywork, and a split seat setup.
Features: The CBR300R comes with full LED illumination, an LCD unit with all the necessary readouts, and ABS for added safety.

The actual pocket rocket
6 weeks ago
Naga Aryan
Purchased this bike on Feb 24. I have nearly been to 12 test rides of various bikes but the one bike that surprised me and kept me smiling is this bike out of all. It is very quick in city and so smooth even in 130-140. The brakes are on point and don't disappoint. The service quality of Big Wing Honda is not great and it's just ok

Most Powerful Bike in 300c Segment
6 weeks ago
Deepak Rajput
The bike is very powerful. It looks very beautiful. Very good, bike, a bike with a very low price in the 300cc naked segment. And the bike reaches a speed of 100 in just 6 seconds and it is also very fun to drive in the city. The handling is very good and don't even talk about the power. The power is very good.

Om Manishkumar Dudhpakwala
As other companies like Kawasaki, RE, and BMW offer good design in this budget honda must need to upgrade this bike's look and good graphics to enhance road presence for the performance of this bike no doubt it has the best-refined engine with the next-level of comfort so just with one upgrade to its design and graphics honda can make this one beast so face all other rivals.

I have tested this bike and am willing to buy it. As it is Honda brand refinement of engine is Ultimate. Smooth acceleration. Service cost is reasonable and good build quality, so no worries about replacing parts, thus easy to maintain. The only thing I am concerned about price. Honda should have priced it between 2 lakhs INR to 2.30 lakhs INR like its sibling cbr300f.
Honda should consider making a full fairing version of this bike, there is no other bike competition. It would be everybody's dream bike to buy

Honda showed its professionalism very well.Riding the CB300R is very lovely, your heart will be filled with joy.the bike looks decent and compact and performance is next level.i purchase yesterday and the 1st service will be around 1000km.
Pros
Lightweight (146 KG kerb weight) and 31 BHP engine, yet to face any heating issues in city riding
Light clutch and smooth gearbox
Gearing is spot on for city riding
Pulls nicely and is not overwhelming
Comfortable seat.
Cons
MRF tires. For this price, we expect better
Only two color options in India as of now
Uncomfortable for pillion
Would have personally preferred a smaller underbelly silencer
Probably service cost is going to be at par with the BMW since it will have to go for a service every 6 months or 6k KMS
No ride mode, traction control, adjustable levers, and mobile connectivity
Small fuel tank (9.7L only), pathetic horn
Unbranded front suspension. Personally, do not like the gold color.

The Little Beast, Honda Cb300r
26 weeks ago
Syed Sameer Ali
I don't have this bike personally but one of my friends has. I really love this bike cause of its looks riding style comfort power speed and much more. It also has medium-range maintenance. Long rides are really perfect, the riding position is too good to go. The only problem faced was the headlight isn't very bright, it can be improved.
