Honda has this special skill of making excellent products and pricing them atrociously high so that no one buys them. Happened with old civic hybrid and accord hybrid, now they are doing it with the latest city hybrid and this cb300. Some wise person once said foolishness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, was wondering whether that person meant Honda!!!!

@abhaykumar-ur4zv 2 года назад

No, its not excellent product, it is excellent only for first time, it has lots of manufacturering defects and they don't have parts to replace it.

@RS-kd5fd 2 года назад

Cant agree more on this. In fact the list of products priced wrong is even longer

@dhruvrawat8978 2 года назад

Honda doesn't really sells substandard products to cut down the tax in india, it's the greedy indian taxation system that makes it so expensive, if we would be having USA taxation we would be giving close to 2.1 lakh for this bike, the real price in india being 3lakh plus, it's the government that makes good brand look like wrong doers but it is the government really that is regulating the sales of substandard products to th very high taxation upto 45%in luxury cars, that is were city sits

@@dhruvrawat8978 So according to your logic in ckd tax and bs4 version honda was selling shitty substandered cb300 right? And now they are locally making good product without ckd tax thats why they increase the price right ? Use some brain cells if you have one.

@SkillCharged 2 года назад

I think Honda knew that a bare bones Street Naked 300cc bike won’t do volumes so they chose to instead charge a premium and keep it strictly for Honda fans. Long term ownership of a Honda and its resale value ensure that whatever premium you pay upfront is turned negligible eventually. So don’t skip this just because it seems over priced to TVS or KTM bikes. You won’t regret buying this.

@nnlniclb 2 года назад

Okay so will you pay 4 lakhs ex showroom price for it? If they bring the same bike thats sold in USA? That's the base msrp in usa. And add out taxes on top and get this bike for 5 lakhs? Use some common sense. People who rode the bike has loved the front end feel inspite of the new USD forks. Showa's wouldve been better yeah but these aren't bad at all. The brand doesnt mean anything in low end bikes. KTM's have had WP Suspension rear shocks all these years but they've always been terrible at almost everything. Only now in 2022 they've started using good WP rear shocks on their indian spec bikes.

But that said though this is in no way bad in build quality (current version). And unfortunately it is really badly priced. 😭 Edit: That Saree Guard looks awesome 😂.
