There is amazing news for bike enthusiasts and new buyers as Honda has cut the price of its popular CB300R by a significant Rs 21,000, which brings the new price to Rs 2.19 lakh (ex-showroom). This makes the bike one of the most affordable options available in India in the sub-400cc premium segment, and a strong contender for anyone looking for a sporty, reliable ride with great performance without breaking the bank.
For the new bike enthusiasts, the CB300R is part of Honda’s Bigwing catalogue, which mainly focuses on premium and performance bikes. The CB300R is equipped with a 286cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 31 horsepower and 27.5Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox which features a slip-and-assist clutch, delivering
smooth gear shifts, excellent control, and a smooth riding experience in both city and highways. Its lightweight design and premium components give it the feel of a bigger premium bike, even though it sits in the 300cc segment.

This price reduction makes the CB300R more competitive against its many other bikes in this segment. For new riders or those want to upgrade from smaller bikes, this combination of price, performance, and Honda’s reliability makes it a very compelling yet obvious choice.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time the CB300R has received a price adjustment, but when it was first launched in India, the bike was priced at Rs 2.77 lakh, which was considered expensive, which compelled Honda to offer heavy discounts. Later, localisation of parts brought the price down to Rs 2.40 lakh. The credit goes to the recent GST revision, Honda has passed on the benefits directly to the customer, making the CB300R even more attractive and affordable.
It is important to note that not all Honda BigWing bikes have become cheaper, in fact larger models such as the NX500, Rebel 500 and CBR650R have seen steep price increases due to the new 40% GST on bikes above 350cc. But for buyers focused on premium 300cc motorcycles, the CB300R stands out as an affordable, high-value option.
