The CRF300L is Honda’s entry-level road-legal ADV in the US, and it is highly popular due to its reliable mechanism and durable design. However, the previous model was suffering from rear suspension issues, which Honda has addressed with the latest update.
As far as the changes go, the earlier soft suspension has now been damped for a rather stiff ride quality. Earlier, users were reporting the tail section getting bottom-out on the off-road with luggage. The damping is believed to have resolved this issue now.
Additionally, to enhance its performance in high-temperature conditions, Honda has bolted on a new radiator fan and a new grille to make the cooling system more efficient.
Moreover, to add a bit of fresh flair to its design, the 2025 CRF300L now gets Dakar race-bike-inspired graphics and a new red colour.
Powering the new model is the same old reliable 286cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that generates 26.95 bhp of peak power. It comes mated to a 6-speed transmission with a slipper-assist clutch for smooth performance.
As of now, Honda plans to launch the updated model in the European market, while it is already available in the US market now.
Last year, Honda arranged a private preview of the CRF300 bikes in India for select customers to read the response of the domestic market. It is rumoured that Honda is now planning to launch it in India before the 2025 end.
