Rider Profile

Best ForIdeal for new and beginner-to-intermediate riders thanks to its light weight, manageable power, and forgiving handling.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a nimble urban commuter and learner-friendly street bike rather than a performance or adventure machine.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light 143 kg wet weight make it very approachable for shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterA fun, minimalist streetfighter-styled single that rewards flickable handling over outright speed.
Not Ideal ForNot suited for highway touring, long-distance comfort, two-up riding, or any off-road use.

2020 Honda CB300R Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2020 Honda CB300R, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
