2022 Honda CB300R Buyer’s Guide: Price, Specs, and Photos

2022 Honda CB300R For Sale

The entry-level Honda CB300R returns this year, unchanged from 2021—including the color and price. The naked upright sportbike is one of the best platforms for a new rider, so Honda went with what has proven to work with the 2022 Honda CB300R.

Power is provided by a friendly 286cc motor that Honda cants 20 degrees forward to lower the center of gravity, put more weight on the front wheel for confident turning, and allow room for a lower seat height. Although not cruiser-low, the 31.5-inch seat height is approachable for a wide variety of riders.

Everything about the 2022 Honda CB300R is as well thought out as it is basic. The suspension damping is not adjustable, as new riders aren’t ready for advanced features. Instead, Honda engineers sorted out the damping, and it works superbly for most riders in most situations.

As it sits on the showroom floor, the suspension is more than up to the job of urban riding, and sensible canyon runs. The handling and the Dunlop Sportmax GPR-300 tires nicely complement the rest of the package, making for an outstanding motorcycle for new riders, and experienced riders who know their needs and understand that a small-displacement bike is all that’s necessary.
