    Make that 110 mpg (uk gallons) on these. That’s what I get easily on my 2019 Cb300r. Brilliant bike. 5500 miles this year and never let me down once. Tax and insurance are very cheap with the cb300r. Only things I’ve needed are a new front tyre and battery after 10000 miles. Back tyre is hardly worn. Thinking of going for a new Hornet 500 but I’m not sure.
    I may regret selling. The new bike will be much heavier, cost more on insurance and tax and not quite as good mpg. I’ll also be paying out a further £4200 and be scared of scratching it.
    Sod that. Just talked myself into keeping it. Lol

      I haven’t ridden the new hornet yet but if it’s the same engine as the rebel 500 and cl500 then it’s an amazing engine. Still get great mpg with just that little more power. It’s a Honda, it will never let you down 😂

    For zipping round and having fun this bike looks perfect but personally I prefer traditional styling and boring things like a centre stand hence I'm pretty gutted that they dont offer the cb125f with a bigger engine too. Given that the cb125f is so successful, a cb300f would a world beater imo.

    • @cartzwheels
      @cartzwheels  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m sure that you would be able to add a centre stand onto the bike but obvs at the cost to the customer.
      I agree the cb300f would be the perfect bike with the bar risers. And the better riding position.

      Honda introduced a different bike to Asian and South American markets called CB300F, both not liquid cooled as cb125f mentioned above. The liquid cooled CB300F is a predecessor to the CB300R.

      I’ve had mine for 3 weeks. Idk if you’re still looking at one. It doesn’t feel very viby to me. I drive about 50-65 for about 10-15 minutes at a time. My only complaint is that I live in a high wind areas and it gets up to 50-60 mph winds. I drive home one night and around 60mph it felt a little unstable. I am a new rider so I had never experienced high winds before so it was a little surprising.

    Bro, please don't take vehicles which doesn't has number plate for test drive nowadays a lot of scam is happening... Where the company first sells the vehicle to a person and before delivery if any new customer comes to take a test drive of the vehicle they give that vehicle for test drive, by doing so they don't have any headache because that vehicle is already sold. so we should also enquire about this before taking a vehicle for test drive, please make sure that the test drive vehicle has a registered number plate.
