Honda CB300F flex-fuel features
Engine and Performance
The CB300F Flex-Fuel is powered by a 293.52cc, oil-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder PGM-FI engine that supports E85 fuel. The engine produces 24.5 bhp and 25.9 Nm of peak torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. It also features an assist and slipper clutch for smoother gear shifts.
Features and Technology
The motorcycle comes equipped with disc brakes on both ends—276mm at the front and 220mm at the rear—and includes dual-channel ABS and Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) for enhanced safety and handling. Suspension duties are handled by golden USD front forks and a five-step adjustable rear mono-shock.
Other standout features include an all-LED lighting setup for better visibility and a fully digital instrument cluster. The display allows riders to adjust brightness and provides key information such as speed, odometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, twin trip meters, gear position, and a clock. A unique feature is the Intelligent Ethanol Indicator, which alerts riders when the ethanol content exceeds 85%, helping them monitor fuel quality more effectively.
