I own CB 300r recently did around 1500km ride on it includes long stretch and hills and the performance of the bike was quite good only first service and still bike felt super smooth as well the engine never felt stressed out it was so calm i had to control the throttle bike was ready to jump over 130kmph i did cruise mostly on 110-120 in between and i never felt tired i did not even feel i had a ride even after riding all day long..... I have done this on my previous bikes this one was amazing can't wait to take it on another trip

How is the front projector light at night ? I have heard its bad but is it that bad ? Also how is pilion seat. I know its not that good but I am jusg asking for city rides not long ones. Just a bit afraid since this might be my first bike and have to learn on the new bike 🥲

[@acommonman6298]

Rahul, this is an excellent comparison. Neutral and unbiased, just how it should be. Thanks for taking the time to compare them. I feel that a 7.5L usable tank would last about 250 KM on the highway and I can't ride 250KM at a stretch. I would be fine unless I'm in a remote place touring on the CB300R. In terms of features, the only issue I have with the CB300R is the front suspension from Endurance while the CKD units earlier had the Showa suspension. Oh. and the lack of accessories is an issue for the CB300R. I'm yet to get the official crash guard from Honda! Btw, ami CB300R er top speed test korte oi road ta dhore straight coffee house er dike chole jai, oi stretch ta mone hoi ektu better. Ei road tai onek goru edik odik ghure berai, just be careful while riding at speed. :)

Not to forget ppl take their fat royal elephant classic to the broken mountain roads at high altitude... :) We dont really consider wat motorcycle is made for what purpose. I meant to say 300R is actually made for fast rides. Very light, agile & super responsive. its a lovely machine. a few 100 fast kilometers of run in its bare bone structure with just a backpack is fine. But if you want to take it for long tour you will have to modify it and if you modify it then you wont be able to ride the way it is supposed to be ridden. Then you lose its original character. :)

Super comparison bro. Between cb300f and Gixxer 250 which one should i go for ? Considering my cruising speed is around 90-110 and stability and handling are my top priorities

[@RideWithRahulOfficial]

I feel CB300F is a much superior bike than the gixxer 250. The gixxer is based on a much more budget oriented platform. You can understand that it's a commuter platform with just a bit of extra power.

[@vinuvarsidh9754]

[@gouthams7825]

they could have skipped 300f and make 500cc Honda's lineup a bit more affordable along with 500r and 500f launch, if they make hornet 750 in India it might be a hit considered affordable price. nowadays Hondas are following European manufacturers pricing, and thus it lost it sales. that's my humble opinion.

[@RideWithRahulOfficial]

Fun fact: 98% of India's bikers own a motorcycle below 200cc. Superbikes are fun and all, but they don't do anything for a company in terms of profit or volume of sales in a country like India.

Already reviewed that back in 2019, don't think there is much new added to that. The bike at its price point made no sense. Which was reflected in its sales figures but the review is still there you can check it out.

[@suhaildafadar6525]

@@RideWithRahulOfficial Understood. Even I believe the price of the bike is exorbitant! I am planning to buy a new bike and have shortlisted - Honda CB300R, KTM Adventure 250 and Kawasaki Ninja 400. My daily travel distance to work and back is 40km in the Mumbai Traffic. I have the Yamaha FZ 25 now. Which bike would you recommend for daily commute and occasional weekend rides on the highway?

[@RideWithRahulOfficial]

@@suhaildafadar6525 since it's 40 km per day mileage will also play an important part in your decision both the KTM and CB300R have similar mileage. The KTM is way more comfortable if you are a taller rider and the CB300R is absolute nimble in the traffic probably the best in city filtering and lightweight with quick acceleration. So try both and choose accordingly.

[@RideWithRahulOfficial]

@@guyblackknight were the other reviewers not wearing gloves while riding at such higher speeds? That sounds a little weird. Any twin cylinder bike is generally smoother, but for any single cylinder this motorcycle felt as smooth as other single cylinders I have ridden like the Duke 250.

@@RideWithRahulOfficial hmmm..ok. If you say so. Other reviewers like 9/10 of them very specific that the engine was not as buttery smooth as the other Honda bikes.

[@RideWithRahulOfficial]

No, I don't think so.

[@anshulsingraul6639]

@@RideWithRahulOfficial Why! Bro 🤔 CB300F should be quicker than duke 250 beacuse its torque is more than the Duke 250 and tuned such a formidable lower value @ 5500 which is too lower than duke 250 @ 7500. Just like Triumph Rocket 3R 's Torque is tuned at super low value of @4000 thats why, it has world record for quickest 0 to 60 accelerating superbike. Triumph Rocket power is only 167 PS But, that Torque of 221 NM @ 4000 bro, that makes it the quickest bike. Why above case would not be applicable to the cb300F ? 🤔

[@RideWithRahulOfficial]

@@anshulsingraul6639 because CB300F has 23 HP whereas the Duke 250 has 30 HP, so just take both the bikes out and test it for yourself.

[@anshulsingraul6639]

@@RideWithRahulOfficial Then why 203 Hp ninja Zx10R is not the quickest initial accelerating bike, Ninja zx10r is faster only in top end. Although zx10r has much more power than Rocket 3R. why only 167 Hp Triumph Rocket 3R is the quickest initial acceleration bike here. Torque (except typical cruiser bikes) is responsible for initial quickness of bike, that's what I've learned from triumph Rocket 3R ( Rocket 3R Torque - 221Nm @ 4000 ) Power is responsible to acheive Top End, not the initial quickness. What's your opinion bro ? 🤔
