The Honda CBR300R is confirmed to be launched in India in 2025, as announced in recent updates, which will mark its entry into the Indian market to compete in the premium sports bike segment. As for the Yamaha R3 and R25, the 2025 Yamaha R3 is expected to be launched in India later this year. The R3 has been updated with new styling, colour options, and features such as all-LED lighting and a multi-function LCD instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity. However, the Yamaha R25 is unlikely to be introduced in the Indian market, as Yamaha already sells the R3 in India and the R25 does not fit into their current market strategy. The 2025 Yamaha R3, priced approximately at ? 3.80 lakh in Japan, will likely retain its 321cc parallel-twin engine producing 41.4 bhp and 29.5 Nm of torque, and will compete with bikes like the KTM RC 390 and Kawasaki Ninja 400 in the Indian market.

The Honda CBR300R is expected to be launched in India in July 2025, with an anticipated price range of ?2,00,000 to ?2,29,999.

The Honda CBR300R is highly suitable for beginner riders due to its several key features. It is small, lightweight, and easy to maneuver, weighing just under 360 pounds, which makes it more manageable for new riders. The bike has a low seat height of 30.7 inches, allowing smaller riders to have both feet firmly on the ground, enhancing confidence and balance. The 286cc single-cylinder engine produces about 30 horsepower, which is sufficient for city riding and learning the basics of motorcycling without being overwhelming. Additionally, the CBR300R comes with ABS, which significantly improves braking safety. It also boasts excellent fuel economy, with a claimed 71 miles per gallon, and features such as an LCD display, LED turn signals, and a Pro-Link Rear suspension system. These attributes, combined with Honda's reliable build quality and durable construction, make the CBR300R an excellent choice for novice riders looking to hone their skills without breaking the bank.

You can expect a wide range of customization options and accessories for the Honda CBR300R. These include premium motorcycle accessories such as exhaust upgrades from Scorpion Exhausts for better sound and performance, protective gear like fender extenders, and luggage carriers from brands like Hepco & Becker, Ermax, and Pyramid Plastics. Additionally, you can customize your bike with innovative designs using motorcycle wraps, and there are various modification parts available, such as CNC long levers, custom windscreens like the Puig Z-Racing Windscreen, and integrated taillights. Other accessories include RAM mounts, tank pads, and flush mount turn signals, providing ample options to enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of your CBR300R[4).
