Our take on this /// Verdict
The Honda CBR300R STD is a compelling option for those looking for a mid-sized sports bike that balances performance and practicality. With its 286cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 31.1PS and 27.5Nm, it offers strong mid-range acceleration, making it ideal for both city rides and occasional highway jaunts. The bikes lightweight design, aided by its 164 kg weight, enhances its handling and maneuverability. The dual-channel ABS and slip-assist clutch add to its safety and ease of use. However, its important to note that while it competes well against other bikes in its segment, such as the KTM RC 390 and Kawasaki Ninja 300, it may not stand out in terms of raw power. Overall, the CBR300R STD is a solid choice for riders seeking a reliable, easy-to-handle sports bike with a stylish design inspired by Hondas larger models.
Price
In India, the 2024 Honda CBR300R STD is expected to be priced around Rs 2 lakh ex-showroom. When considering on-road prices, which include additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, the total can range from Rs 2.3 lakh to Rs 2.5 lakh, depending on the state and local regulations. This pricing positions the CBR300R STD competitively within the mid-sized sports bike segment, offering a balance of performance, features, and affordability. For potential buyers, this price point is reasonable given the bikes specifications and the brands reputation for reliability and after-sales service.
Latest Updates
Monday, 11 November 2024 04:14 PM
The Honda CB300R, a premium sporty-naked bike, has been updated to comply with BS6 emissions norms and is now priced at Rs 2.77 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) in India. This update has made the bike around Rs 36,000 more expensive than its BS4 counterpart. The bike features a 286cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder motor producing 31.1PS and 27.5Nm, along with a slip-assist clutch and dual-channel ABS. I believe this update makes the CB300R a strong contender in its segment, despite the price hike.

Honda has not yet provided an official release date for the CBR300R in India, leaving many enthusiasts in anticipation. The bike is expected to be priced around Rs 1.95-2.25 lakhs (ex-showroom, Delhi) and will feature a 286cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 30.4HP and 27.1Nm of torque.

Honda CBR300R STD Review
11 Dec, 2015 04:57 AM
Quick Review by Maxabout Team
Honda has always been efficient in its running dynamics and its various engines are a symbol of steady performance in each segment. After the introduction of KTM super sport series, the craze for a motorcycle with a 200 to 400 cc engine has gone up significantly, making way for more and more sport bikes into the market. Some manufacturers rely on the engine size whereas some add up an extra cylinder to it.
Design & Style
The CBR300R is coming up with the same design as the new 2015 CBR250R has been seen with, lighting up a conspiracy that whether it will arrive or not. The bike has the same twin headlight aggressive design and the same perfectly faired sides. The exhaust being used has been chrome covered and looks very neat on the motorcycle.
Instrument Console
The instrument console used in the CBR300R is the same as that being used on the CBR150R. The background of the tachometer stays black and all other properties like speed and trip distance is displayed in the LED display below the analogue tachometer.Engine & Performance
The CBR300R gets the power from a single cylinder, 286 cc engine which produces 30.4 BHP @ 8500 rpm and 27.1 NM @ 7250 rpm. The 6-speed gearbox works very well to the system and the bike gets fuel injection and liquid cooling for better and refined performance. The overall weight is 164 kg, in which the engine weight is just 35.4 kg.
Brakes & Suspension
Honda has used a 296 mm disc brake for the front, whereas a 220 mm disc has been used for the rear. ABS has been provided for better braking in non-ideal conditions also. Suspension duty is performed by 37 mm telescopic forks at the front whereas the rear gets a pro-link monoshock suspension. The front tire measures 110/70-17 whereas the rear has a 140/70-17 tire.
Shades & Expected Price
The CBR300R is expected to be in Red, Black and Tri-color shade, with the availability of Repsol edition also possible. The expected price for the CBR300R is INR 1,95,000. The price range and the engine power conflicts with the new CBR250R, reducing the chances of its launch in India.
