You do not need a 600 as a beginner bike, this is more than enough and very fun to ride. Plus within a year you can always upgrade to a more powerful bike as a more experienced rider.

It’s amazing that a motorcycle doesn’t always have to make 200hp to be a blast to ride. Yet another great video😀👍

Just bought the 2021 Honda CB300R and I’m glad I watched your video bc I’m the same height and just weighing 155lbs and when I sat on this motorcycle at the dealership and at home now, this is the most comfortable I’ve been on a motorcycle and the ergonomics are a perfect fit to my body size/height.

These are popping up on the used market and are very tempting for a first bike!!

Trust me, I’m as average as it gets yet I found this to be so so enjoyable.

Owned this bike for a year and i love it! So comfortable and reliable and fun to ride. wouldn't really want to tour it too far. So cheap to run and insure too. I get about 83-84 miles to the gallon in real life riding conditions. Its a joy to own. I do sometimes envy the big boys Honda cb650r or cb1000r for that extra torque . Most people, cars and bikers assume you are only riding a 125cc as it looks almost identical and get a shock when you spank them or at least keep up with them on the road. The only slight issue with this bike is having to shift through the low gears very quickly as this can get a little tired on busy city rides. Stay happy and stay safe out there Brothers and sisters.

That has to be the best looking single cylinder bike in the market today. Also, the same applies to the cb650r. The best looking motorcycle release for 2019 in my opinion. Honda sure has got their design game all strong. Coupled with that unbeatable and bulletproof reliability and refinement, honda is making a super solid statement here.

2024! I have got myself one 300r here in India ditching interceptor 650 for the marvel of engineering Japanese have done in 300R. Very good review

In Japan now getting my motorcycle license in a month and going to get this bike, though we have the 250cc version because 250cc and lower bikes don't have to do a bi-annual vehicle inspection called "shaken" that costs about $500. It's kind of like a smog check but for everything. Rode for the first time today on a CB400 (I'm getting a 400cc motorcycle license) and the CB250R seems perfect for me. Thanks for helping me in my decision.

I've had this bike for over a year now, and I still love it, but i'm getting the cb1000r on 2020. I need a bit more power, and the same feel, the cb1000r delivers that for me. I love the video, and review.

Miss you, Honda CB300R 🎍🎋🧭⏱🔩🔧 And I had finally nailed the gear shifting too QwQ

I have the same bike and I pretty happy with it! Excellent for beginner by my option. And looks very good from aside. Even for bigger guy 😄

I've had a ton of bikes, been riding 50+ years, currently own a 2021 Yamaha MT-09 and a 2019 (non ABS) CB300R. IMO, the CB300R is much more than a beginner bike. The ultra low weight, the excellent suspension and handling, the sound and feel of this single cylinder engine, all that combines to put a big smile on my face every time I ride it! Speaking of riding, rode my MT-09 yesterday, planning to ride my CB300R this afternoon!

Omg M. Arnold sorry never saw ur message hee I LOVE this bike on the freeway it is a dream!!!!!

I own a variety of bikes including this one, and I gotta say it is solid in that it is reliable for 10s/100s of THOUSANDS of miles for 80+MPG even for 200+lb riders. Change oil, tires, lube chain, that’s it. However, it feels a little jumpy even for a seasoned throttle hand. Also has a comfortable stance but seat becomes stiff (for my precious butt at least) on longer rides. *Will perform well in twisties*

Just about to put a down payment on this in India, can’t wait to own it. I think you said a lot of things I thought myself. It’s a bit more expensive here compared to the completion but honestly I don’t mind spending that bit extra. The way it out made me feel at ease immediate was just a big draw for me. Only concern is it is a little down on power to something like a Duke but then again a few mods (filters, new sprocket, remove the side guard we get only in India and a new exhaust should help add 2-3 bhp and torque. Excellent review cheers mate!

Have to agree that the CB300R is a little gem having already owned 2 of them. The engine is so willing and smooth for a little thumper. I've owned many big and small bikes over the years and this one was the one that surprised me the most. It is a very capable machine! For smaller light weight riders, you will have a blast on this bike, especially on twisty country roads. It lacks the Duke 390 Power but personally having owned a 2017 Duke, the Honda wins for me as I personally like to keep my teeth in my mouth rather than spitting them out after a ride on the Duke. Plus 20mpg extra is very appealing. In terms of image, the Honda is great too. I like the Duke 390 but it has a 'Graffiti' image, whereas the Honda has more of an understated by still very classy image. Premium touches round off an amazing little bike that even the most experienced riders will enjoy.
