Honda SH300i 2016

The new SH300i again presents itself as a practical and surprisingly sporty big-wheel scooter, but it can do almost everything better than its predecessor. The fact that the power and torque are marginally lower will be quite tolerable when you hear that the mid-range offers a bit more punch as a result. You will hardly feel it anyway, there was absolutely no need to act on the sporty talents of the SH300i. Storage space, on the other hand, has been improved: a full-face helmet of normal size now fits under the seat. Additional comfort features such as the Honda Smart Key System, which allows the ignition key to simply be left in the pocket, and a 12-volt socket under the seat make the SH300i even more interesting. And finally, the look has also been upgraded; thanks to the full LED lighting, it now looks sportier without alienating the regular customers.
