2026 Honda CRF300F Performance Guide

A practical breakdown of how the CRF300F delivers smooth, confidence-building trail performance—engine character, fueling, gearing, and the key numbers that matter when you ride.
Trail-ready performance

Fuel-injected 293cc power with a six-speed manual

The CRF300F is designed for reliable trail riding with excellent performance and durability for off-road adventures. Its PGM-FI fuel injection and counterbalanced single-cylinder engine are built to feel predictable and easy to manage across changing terrain.

Base price:
$4,999
(plus applicable fees/tax)

Engine character

At the heart of the CRF300F is a 293cc air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke. Air cooling keeps the package straightforward and trail-friendly, while the counterbalanced engine helps reduce vibration for a smoother feel on longer rides.

Fuel injection response

Honda’s Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) uses a 34mm throttle body to deliver consistent fueling. That consistency is especially valuable when conditions change—cool mornings, warmer afternoons, or varying elevations on local trails.

Six-speed versatility

A six-speed manual transmission gives you more flexibility than a wide-gap five-speed when you’re moving between tighter sections and faster connectors. Pair that with the O-ring chain final drive (14T/50T) for durable, low-maintenance trail use.

It’s a great fit for riders who want a dependable trail bike that’s easy to ride and easy to live with.
