Honda CB300R 2019

Honda CB300R 2019

With 300cc and 31 hp, the CB300R clearly belongs in the category of the more exotic representatives among the naked bikes. It may not be the most powerful bike in its class, but it is by far one of the handiest of its kind. The CB300R has extremely smooth turn-in behaviour that is almost on a par with the 125. However, the bike can score points with a more powerful engine and better chassis. The retro look of the 300 version is even better than that of its little sister and, for us, represents a real enrichment for the A2 segment.

Super smooth handling

build quality a notch better than the 125

chassis represents a good compromise between sportiness and comfort

LED lighting and IMU-ABS

Unfortunately less equipped than the competition

a little more horsepower from the 300 cc engine would be desirable

Solid, simple, good. The Kawasaki Versys-X 300 is certainly not the most exciting model in the green product range. But it is a successful addition to the Versys family and will appeal to many beginners. The handling is easy and brings a lot of fun on asphalt and gravel. Whether you ride it at 12,000 rpm and drag footpegs or explore the countryside over dirt roads, the Versys-X 300 proves to be a very versatile motorbike. With accessories, it can also be quickly transformed into a touring machine that promises long-term qualities with simple technology.
