Cb300 r , 5 year owner review.

I bought this back in 2k19, was waiting for either the mt03 to launch or this , ended up going for this. Fell in love at the first ride, the power it packs atjust shy of 150 kilos is fabulous .. This was my mental rehab bike after going through a but of a rough phase i will try to cut it in short and list the pros and cons below. Pros: 1. The engine is smooth AF, you can ride at hig h rpm without much vibrations. 2. The foot peg position makes it very easy to go through random road bumps since you can get into an upright position without any hassle. 3. Power to weight ratio, 0 to 100 in about 6 and a half seconds, even the triumphs speed doesnt do it that quick or even the super meteor , only the duke 390 beats by being around 5 second mark. 4. I dont ride it tame yet it still gives me around 32kmpl in city. Cons: 1. The brakes are lack a punch. 2. The headlights are way too poor and you cant change the led. 3. The side stand is too upright especially in mountains it becomes a hassle to park the bike. 4. Poor ground clearance. That being said, overall very much satisfied with the bike, this was a ckd model back then got it for around 270k on road .. Its astonishing how many people missed out on this, poor advertisement lack of features are an issue imho but this bike's ride quality is on a different level.
