The 2014 HONDA CBR300R

The 2014 HONDA CBR300R

Date: 2014-12-12

A true sporting lightweight offers much of the excitement of a bigger machine and more with access to every last scrap of performance for maximum enjoyment. For the less experienced rider, it offers a great platform from which to hone riding skills and is much more affordable in every respect.

The CBR300R was conceived with two major objectives, to provide the rider access to more power and torque as well as a much stronger CBR identity. Visual echoes of its larger capacity siblings give the CBR300R a more direct taste of the CBR brand.

Firstly, the liquid-cooled engine is now 286cc, which is achieved through a longer stroke. Increased capacity is only one part of the equation and the CBR300R has received a series of upgrades to take full advantage of this increased power and torque. Work centred on the engine's throttle response and power delivery, while a new CBR500R-style exhaust provides both an aesthetic and functional upgrade.

Compared to larger capacity twin-cylinder machines, the CBR300R is a more compact, lighter and more manageable package for both new and experienced riders, with significantly lower purchase and running costs complementing its flexible and accessible performance.

The CBR300R's DOHC 4-valve engine retains its 76mm bore, but stroke is increased 8mm to 63mm to create the larger 286cc capacity. Compression ratio remains 10.7:1 and peak power of 22.7kW arrives at 8,500rpm with peak torque of 27Nm at 7,250rpm.
