markg Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Looks like the 2017 model info is out. Doesn't look like a 300 engine. I can't really see any differences besides aesthetics? Anyone else see any changes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caddy4u Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Love the new colours though! and think my repsols gonna get a facelift mudguard!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatty Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Looks good in White. I want one ! Fatty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwb5151 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I was sorta disappointed because the only difference is aesthetics really. A new fuel pump and a longer kick starter. I'm not sure on the colour as it takes away the significance of the Cota being red. The repsol still looks exactly the same.This is all my opinion I would have loved to see a 300 Cota and repsol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neils on wheels Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 It's hardly worth a press release is it "The mudguard is a different colour and the engine is the same as before" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgas249uk Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 It's hardly worth a press release is it "The mudguard is a different colour and the engine is the same as before" Now now .... for Honda boys ... this news is monumentous. Can perfection be improved ? . Well apparently so. 4rt owners will be dining off this story for weeks . I'd imagine that sticker is very very special Let the good times roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted July 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 Don't forget a new longer kick start......... I really would have thought a 300 engine would be in the Repsol at least... Now we have to wait and see if the 300RR will be released again later next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyl Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 looks like they are keeping the clever re distribution of weight to themselves. Paint from the fuel tank now relocated lower and further back on the swing arm -clever Honda/Montesa. Perfectionists or what. Does look nice though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyboxer Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 Let the good times roll That's Kawasaki's strapline I agree, bit of a non event, Honda plays it safe................once again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 The kickstarter already stuck up too far and looked like it would get in the way. Now even more so. How long before the kickstarter is so long you can use your hand to start it. (similar to those manual crank start cars) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long before the kickstarter is so long you can use your hand to start it. (similar to those manual crank start cars) LOL... Now that would be interesting to see, a manual crack start bike. Haven't seen how the new ones look in person but the old one hasn't ever give me any trouble... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbk Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 I like the white looks good and clean. I havent seen anything on what the 2017 300 rr is gonna look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwb5151 Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 To be honest i think what everyone was hoping for was a bigger engine 300cc, the repsol actualy looking different and a price drop on the repsol and the cota rr because at £8000 for the cota rr that is extremly expensive. This is my opinion but come on the repsol still looks exactly the same dont get me wrong they are great bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 They are much cheaper in europe, Honda uk are having our pants down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
