The Honda CRF300L is a blend of both off-road and on-road capabilities, making it an ideal choice for those looking for versatility. Featuring a 286cc engine, this bike continues Honda’s trend of offering easy-to-handle motorcycles that are perfect for beginners. The CRF300L boasts good suspension, an attractive design, and a forgiving engine, making it a great option for new riders. With an MSRP starting at $5,449, there are additional models available if you’re looking for more features. For instance, the CRF300LS offers a lower seat for added comfort.
In Dirt Rider’s review, the CRF300L is praised as a lightweight bike that’s “extremely accessible” to all riders. While maximizing the bike’s off-roading capabilities will give you the best value, it performs equally well for on-road use. Though it’s slightly more expensive than some other options due to its versatility, the price difference is minimal and the bike remains a worthwhile investment, even if most of your riding is confined to city streets.
