papa al Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Scrambler. Good idea. Will prolly sell well enough. The CL is way cheaper than the 500X Edited March 20, 2023 by papa al 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandRyan Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Cheaper than the ADV 300 and Yamahas X-max 300. Put a bag rack on the back for your gear and its a trail/camping/touring bike....but this article says some things that are hard to believe. https://www.topspeed.com/the-honda-cl300-is-a-china-only-motorcycle-youll-want-in-america/ Honda lets you jazz up your CL300 with a variety of accessories like a raised front fender, headlight mask, and even old-school number plates on the sides.

In the jungle Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 These look like the Honda Rebel with a light restyle. A hard no from me. You can do way better for the money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price was MSRP plus 50k or 276,800. Would probably buy one for MSRP. Reminds me of a BSA 650 firebird(?) scrambler I owned back in the 70s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C3PO Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Interesting bike. For those who bought it: Is the CL500 worth the extra 80k tbh compared to the CL300? Especially given the road conditions and traffic in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who bought the 500 didn't buy the 300 so ... how could they really compare the two.? 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cchina184 Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I've had one of these for four months and 3000 km. Fantastic with two complaints. No tool kit. 39th Honda motorbike my family have owned, first that came without a tool kit. And no way to access an owner's manual in English. Neither a major problem, but irritating nontheless. Bike too new for aftermarket service manuals to have been printed, and very few accessories are available. I bought a side bag to carry tools and stuff. Nice bag, leather, but attachment to the frame designed by a former Yugo engineer. But the bike, what a wonder. I rode CL350's and 450's from the 60's. Loved them. The Japanese/Chinese should do well with this 55 year old resurrection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
