The Smallest CBR: The 2020 Honda CBR300R
Contents
The 2020 Honda CBR300R is the smallest member of the CBR-family, but good things come in small packages. Don’t be fooled by the small displacement, because this full-faired sport bike has more than enough power to thrill beginner and experienced riders alike. It’s fast and nimble, and very economical too.
Powered by a potent 286cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke engine, the CBR300R unleashes an impressive 30.5 horsepower at 8,500 rpm and 19.8 lb-ft of peak torque at 7,250 rpm. The power is delivered in a smooth and powerful way, with a responsive throttle and a sporty exhaust note too.
In keeping with the rest of the CBR-family, the CBR300R takes its styling cues directly from the CBR1000RR, with similar dual headlights, an aerodynamic fairing, and characteristic CBR-inspired fuel tank and saddle.
The potent engine, performance parts, and sport-inspired design result in a compact, lightweight motorcycle with nimble handling and responsive acceleration. This is so much more than just a beginner bike. It’s an important member of the CBR-line that offers accessible performance in an affordable package.
Available with or without ABS for 2020, the CBR300R is available in two color options: Grand Prix Red or Matte Black Metallic.
