2019 Honda CB300R ABS

Lightweight agility

The light and compact engine contributes to the CB300R’s agile steering, intuitive handling and impressive power-to-weight ratio, allowing it to compete with twin-cylinder bikes of similar displacement.

Easy maintenance

To reduce maintenance costs – an important factor for many riders – the engine is also designed with the minimum number of moving parts. Details like the

Crisp throttle response

Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture for the current riding and atmospheric conditions. The system delivers optimal performance and remarkably crisp throttle response over a wide range of operating conditions, plus improved fuel economy.

Compact engine design

The engine countershaft sits lower than the mainshaft in a “stacked” formation to reduce the engine’s front-to-rear dimensions.

Confidence inspiring

The engine produces a remarkably broad torque curve for strong low-rpm performance, the wide spread of power makes the CB300R easy and confidence-inspiring to ride, in both stop-and-go situations and on the highway, while also returning impressive fuel economy.

Efficient engine

The crankshaft runs in plain bearings for quieter operation and the big end of the connecting rod spins in a needle bearing, both contributing to the engine’s high-performance credentials.

Less vibration – more comfort

A gear-driven counterbalance shaft helps quell engine vibration for enhanced rider comfort. It’s located so close to the crankshaft that the balancer weight passes between the two crank weights to keep the engine as compact as possible while improving mass centralization.

Broad power delivery

The six-speed transmission works in concert with the engine’s broad power delivery to produce quick acceleration and excellent fuel economy around town. Taller final drive gearing further improves fuel efficiency during highway cruising.

At a glance

A thin (23.5 mm) lightweight (230 g) full function LCD instrument display provides speed, engine rpm, fuel level and gear position simply, with warning lights arrayed across the top.

Easy to ride

A narrow comfortable seat and riding position makes it easier for riders to develop their skills and enjoyment as a great introduction to our legendary lineup of motorcycles.

Fit and finish

Full LED lighting – including indicators – adds a premium feel and contributes to mass centralisation. The headlight uses a dual bar light signature, upper for low beam and lower for high beam and the taillight is the thinnest ever mounted on a Honda motorcycle.

Boldly designed

Taking sport naked design to the next level with an attractive neo sport philosophy from the iconic fuel tank shape to the underslung exhaust.
