I've been kicking around the idea of a nimble mountain road carver for sometime and the CBR300r has been on the radar. I stupidly went to my local shop today (where I bought my CB1100) to kill some time as I was near. I spied the 2019 version in the back crammed in with others of the ilk. I couldn't sit on it as there was no room to even walk beside it. But I gave it a once over and considered the $4300ish sales price, not too bad. As I was leaving I saw a red, small, CBR something in the used section of the lot. It didn't have a cc decal on it so I guessed maybe a 500? It was a little tired looking and in need of some TLC (which I can provide). The salesman came out and we looked it up, 2015 CBR300r 8200 miles. I was out of time so I hit the road on my (friggin GLORIOUS) CB1100, yes, it does keep getting better, after telling the salesman to email me a price. 20 min later I had an email which stated $3000 out the door. Aw man, might just have to do it.
P.S. Sat on a Monkey, nicely done, but I can see why Alprider put aftermarket shocks on the back. Quite soft.
