Here is a new offering from Honda Brazil. Very interesting. Maybe they will keep upping the cc's on there single cylinders and give us a 350 or 450 cbr. I perfectly happy with my 250cc but if they kept the weight down with a few more cc's it would make things quite interesting! I like the lack of fairing too.

wow that looks great!

 

[ice_burg]

I would buy one!

I just really wish there were more options between 250cc and 600cc

I definately like the look. It looks like it has an oil cooler, but it may be liquid cooled, so if it is fuel injected it is pretty nice. Drum rear brake though, like my scooter, it stops good, i rather have disk.

Nice, why are we alwas the last to get these cool "little" bikes?

 

[may2nd]

that would be awesome if i lived in brazil or s.america..i love naked bikes, but im not willing to goto brazil to get it. the bike is hot though..

Finned head + oil cooler and no radiator, it's not a water cooled engine.

No indication on whether it's carburated or fuel injected.

 

[kutter]

It looks air cooled for sure.

From the article. Air cooled FI.

Honda CB300R is powered by an air cooled 291cc, 4-valve double overhead camshaft, 4 stroke and single cylinder engine. This engine will give power about 26hp @7500rpm and a torque of 2.9 kgm at 6000 rpm. Equipped with Honda’s Electronic PGM-FI system, the 143kg bike (dry) will have big possibility to enter the European market considering this Honda’s FI make the engine green and passing the Euro emission regulation.

'njoy,

26 HP it's the same of the CBR, what's the point in making this direct competitor join the market? Just cause it's naked?

 

[w0rM]

Not my style but it looks ok.

 

[motorpsycho]

Most interesting indeed and I agree with the OP that it would be totally awesome if Honda does ever decide to make a 350cc sports bike.

That bike is okay...but I like this one better.

 

[CBR-STL]

I've been waiting for someone to start subtracting some of the fairing off the bike. Looks very nice. I like better than the Brazilian 300cc too.

 

[shewonhol]

Honda is a famous brand in Motorbike world. lot of people are like this brand...
So I like to know Why is that & What are the new features of there world wide coverage......

 

[jsonder]

I still love my '89 NX 250; 11:1 compression, 2 cams, 4 valves, water cooled, also 26 hp.

 

[furious_blue]

I wonder if the Brazilian bike will run on straight ethanol (no gasoline) ?

A dual/multi fuel engine would be nice.

 

[250 Tom]

I would buy one!

I just really wish there were more options between 250cc and 600cc

I agree maybe down the road there will be

There used to be a lot of choice in this cc range when I first started riding motorcycles (1980's) but in the UK, until recently, with the introduction of the Ninja and CBR 250's, it seems to be a jump from 125 to 600 cc these days.
