How many cc is a Honda 300?
The answer depends on the model: street-oriented Honda 300s run about 286 cc, while dual-sport/off-road 300-class models run about 293 cc.
To understand what the “300” designation means in Honda’s lineup, it’s helpful to group models by intended use. Engine displacement is a fixed spec per model and can vary slightly by year or market.
Displacement by model family
Here is a quick breakdown of common Honda models that carry the 300 designation and their approximate engine displacements.
- CB300R — approximately 286 cc
- CBR300R — approximately 286 cc
- CRF300L — approximately 293 cc
- CRF300R — approximately 293 cc
Exact figures can vary by model year and market. Always consult the official Honda specification sheet for your exact bike.
Why the variation exists
Honda tunes different engines to match the bike’s purpose: about 286 cc for street-focused models that emphasize nimble handling, and about 293 cc for dual-sport/off-road models that benefit from a bit more displacement for torque and versatility.
How to verify the exact displacement
Check the owner's manual, the official Honda product page for your model year, or the vehicle’s certificate of title. Dealers can confirm the exact cc for your specific bike.
Summary
In Honda’s current 300-class lineup, the two primary displacement figures are roughly 286 cc for street models (CB300R, CBR300R) and roughly 293 cc for CRF dual-sport models (CRF300L, CRF300R). Always verify the precise figure for your exact year and market.
