Bike lovers, rejoice! Honda has launched CB300R, its first motorcycle to take on players in the 300cc category.
The new two-wheeler from the company looks stunning and builds on the design of a typical cafe racer with modern touches.
It has been priced at Rs. 2.41 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
Here's all about the new CB300R.
Design
Bold new design to ride on
Assembled from completely knocked down kits in India, Honda CB300R can be described as a modern avatar of a classic cafe racer.
It comes in Matte Axis Grey Metallic and Candy Chromosphere Red colors and borrows design elements from the top-end Honda Neo Sports Cafe Concept and Honda CB1000R.
To note, Honda touts its design as the unique selling point of the 143-kg bike.
Power
Plus, there's immense power
And, it's not just the looks; the new CB300R also delivers on the power front.
The bike comes with a liquid-cooled, four-valve, single-cylinder DOHC motor, tuned to produce 30 bhp at 8,000 rpm and a peak torque of 27.4 Nm at 6,500 rpm.
The motor is mated to a six-speed gearbox and is capable of delivering a mileage of over 30Km/l, as per Honda.
