Positioned in Honda's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2014 Honda CBR 300R features a 286 cc (17.5 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 30.4 HP (22.2 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 27 Nm (19.9 lb-ft) at 7,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 106.3 HP per liter and a 1,250 rpm working window between peak torque (7,250 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the CBR 300R measures 164 kg (362 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.19 HP/kg (5.39 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,380 mm (54.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.31 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 393 km (244 miles) between fill-ups.
