How well do the two 300cc nakeds stack up against each other?
Most of the two-wheelers saw a bump in their price while transitioning from BS4 to BS6. However, CFMoto’s recently launched 300NK BS6 has been priced the same as its BS4 variant. It rivals the BMW G 310 R. So, let’s compare the two 300 naked motorcycles in these images.
Both the CFMoto 300NK and the BMW G 310 R serve as the entry-level models for their respective brands. Both the bikes feature futuristic-looking all-LED headlights with DRLs.
While the Chinese brand has used a TFT display for the 300NK, the G 310 R makes do with a rather old-looking LCD screen. In terms of data, the screens display details such as an odometer, tachometer, trip meter, fuel-level gauge, and gear position.
Next up are the powerplants. CFMoto has gifted the 300NK BS6 with a single-cylinder 292.4cc liquid-cooled engine, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. While the brand is yet to reveal the power figures for the BS6 variants, the 300NK made 28PS and 25Nm in its BS4 avatar.
On the other hand, the BMW G 310 R features a single-cylinder 313cc liquid-cooled mill that makes 34PS and 28Nm. It’s mated to a 6-speed transmission with slip and assist clutch.
On the electronics front, the CFMoto 300NK gets dual-channel ABS and two rider modes: Sport and Rain. Whereas, the BMW G 310 R gets dual-channel ABS, ride-by-wire and a Glide-Through-Traffic feature which lets the bike crawl in traffic using the clutch only.
Both the bikes use the same suspension hardware: USD front fork and rear monoshock.
Even the braking department for both the bikes is handled by the same setup: disc brake at the front and rear with dual-channel ABS as standard.
Both the bikes sit on 17-inch alloys. The CFMoto 300NK’s wheels are wrapped in 110/70 front and 140/60 rear tyres whereas the BMW G 310 R uses a 110/70 front and a 150/60 rear tyre.
The CFMoto 300NK is priced at Rs 2.29 lakh. And the BMW G 310 R costs Rs 21,000 more at a price tag of Rs 2.50 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
