Is there any chance that Honda may relaunch the Honda CB300R again in India?

The Honda CB300R has presently been discontinued in India, and there is no official word on its return. However, we do know that the company is working on bringing the Rebel 300 cruiser - a bike that shares its engine with the CB300R - to India with a lot of localised content to ensure competitive pricing.

This also paves the way for the CB300R to return to our market in the future, perhaps with a few new features thrown in. We recommend reaching out to your nearest Honda BigWing dealer and speaking to them for more clarity.

My height is 6′1″, and I want to buy a new retro neo-classical bike. Which bike should I buy within a budget of ₹3 lakh?

The neo-retro segment has different options today to suit varied tastes and requirements. On the traditional end of the spectrum, you have options like the Royal Enfield Bullet / Classic 350 and Honda CB350 models. They are laid-back and comfortable machines which are conducive to relaxed riding. On the other hand, if you want something that looks retro but goes like a thoroughly modern machine, the Triumph Speed 400 and Speed T4 come into the picture. The Speed 400 has better componentry, a higher performance ceiling and also costs more. The T4 is a simpler machine, but it still has decent pep in its step, and its engine suits the neo-retro theme more. A test ride of these bikes should help you decide which is the best fit for you.

I’m 33 years old, 185 cm tall, weigh 88 kg, and am based in Bengaluru. Over the years, I’ve owned the following two-wheelers (in order): Dio, Xtreme, Karizma R, Avenger 220, and Activa 3G. I sold my Activa in January and have been searching for a new bike since then. Since March 2023, I’ve test-ridden 49 bikes and documented detailed pros and cons, along with my likes and dislikes for each. My primary criteria are after-sales service quality, product quality and reliability, engine refinement, and suspension maturity, which is especially important given Bengaluru’s road conditions. After extensive evaluation, I shortlisted four motorcycles: Svartpilen 401, TVS RTX, HD 440T, and the Adventure 390 spoke-wheel version. Each has its strengths, but also concerns related to availability, service experience, or long-term comfort. Given these factors, my current plan is to buy a Suzuki Access 125 ABS for now and upgrade later to a 490 cc twin-cylinder adventure bike if one launches around 2028 or 2029. Does this approach make sense?

Since you have been hunting for a bike, we'd recommend you scratch that itch sooner rather than later! Based on your checklist, there are two options we'd recommend you take a strong look at - Triumph Scrambler 400 X and Royal Enfield Himalayan 450. Both are tall and large machines which will suit a person of your stature and have decent performance too. Given their long travel suspension setups, you'll also be comfortable when navigating broken roads inside the city. The Triumph is geared a little short, which is great at slower speeds inside the city but on the highway, that means vibrations creep in sooner. The Royal Enfield's 196kg kerb weight might not be something you are willing to put up with daily, especially at city speeds. Take a test ride of these bikes and see for yourself which one offers the experience you are after before making a purchase.

I am planning to buy a scooter for my daughter for her short daily trips to tuition classes, which would be around 15-20 km per day. My priorities are low seat height, good balance, and a reliable machine. I am considering buying a second-hand scooter like the Suzuki Access 125 or TVS Jupiter for around ₹50,000. Do you think this would be a good decision, or should I instead consider buying an electric scooter, which would cost ₹1 lakh or more? Some friends suggested buying an assembled electric scooter, but I am not comfortable with that option due to concerns about safety and reliability. What would be the best option in my situation?

Since your daily running is quite low, you should look at a petrol scooter - preferably brand new, for the peace of mind and the manufacturer's warranty it will come with. We'd recommend looking at the base variants of the Honda Activa 110, Suzuki Acess and TVS Jupiter 110. All scooters will be friendly for a newer rider because of their low kerb weights and approachable seat heights. If, however, your budget doesn't permit you to go for a new scooter, then a pre-owned Activa or Access would be our recommendation. The Activa and Access are some of the most popular scooters available, and finding a good example will be fairly straightforward. Because of their popularity and widespread service network, sourcing replacement parts should also be quite easy.
