Honda CB300R BS6 price is slightly higher than our expectations considering that at least the motor is now made in India…

At the India Bike Week (IBW) last month, Honda showcased their Neo-Sports Cafe offering CB300R in its BSVI compliant avatar which gained a lot of attention at the event as well as on the social media. 

And behold, today Honda has announced the launch of the 2022 CB300R in India.
