Honda has revealed the new and improved CB300R in the European market. While you can’t exactly say that this bike is a beginner bike in the region, as young first-timers aren’t legally allowed to ride it, you can certainly say that it’s a much more docile and easy-to-ride machine than its bigger siblings. That said, young riders looking to move up the ranks now have an even more solid option in the CB300R.
For starters, the new CB300R features enhancements to the engine that make it Euro 5-compliant—an update that was necessary in order for Big Red to continue selling the bike in Europe. It churns out rather pedestrian power figures with 25 ponies and 20 ft-lbs of torque. Meanwhile, it gets a revised exhaust system, which seems to have been both a styling update and a move done in correlation to Euro 5 compliance.
