Segment leader in Brazil, the new CB 300F Twister 2026 arrives with updated looks while retaining the robust mechanical package and technology that made the model a success
Honda has announced the arrival of the 2026 CB 300F Twister lineup, one of the most popular motorcycles in Brazil, featuring updates that enhance its visual appeal and sporty feel.
Once again, the update focuses solely on new color options, maintaining the proven design and renowned mechanical efficiency that have defined the model since its launch in 2023.
With over 140,000 units sold between January 2023 and June 2025, according to FENABRAVE, the CB 300F Twister is the clear leader in its segment. Its success stems from the combination of bold looks, solid performance, and fuel economy, attracting both beginners and experienced riders.

New Look, Same Reliable Performance
One of the few novelties for the 2026 CB 300F Twister is the new range of colors. The ABS version now features a brand-new Pearl Blue, joining the classic Metallic Red. Meanwhile, the CBS version now comes in a modern Metallic Gray alongside the already well-known Metallic Red.
The new colors were chosen to further enhance the bike’s striking design, with emphasis on the angular fuel tank lines, minimalist headlight fairing, and raised tail section that define the model’s sporty appearance.
Technology and Safety
The CB 300F Twister 2026 retains the air-cooled 293.5 cm³ SOHC single-cylinder engine with four valves and FlexOne technology, mated to a six-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch. The setup ensures efficient performance, low fuel consumption, and excellent handling.
The diamond-type tubular steel frame works together with a telescopic front suspension (Ø 41 mm, 130 mm travel) and a rear monoshock with dual spring and 120 mm travel.
Both versions — CBS and ABS — feature disc brakes with Ø 276 mm at the front and Ø 220 mm at the rear. The difference lies in the calipers: the CBS version uses a three-piston front caliper with combined braking, while the ABS version features a two-piston caliper with an independent anti-lock system on both wheels.
Equipment and Comfort
Among its equipment, the CB 300F Twister includes a blackout LCD display, USB-C port, and full-LED lighting. The alloy wheels with radial tires enhance the model’s sporty character, ensuring grip and safety under various riding conditions.
