Honda XRE 300 - Brazil built - specific to Latam Market

Hi everyone,

as I am moving to Brazil soon I started looking at what I could get (once I am settled over there). I came across the XRE 300 in the Honda BR site. Apparently it is supposed to replace the Falcon 400 and the XR250 Tornado.

Any one tested it? Any comments? It looks gorgeous!

I will get a bike built locally (mainly because anything imported cost an arm and a leg!) and below 400cc (as anything bigger - you get it!- cost an arm and a leg as well!)

Cheers,

I think if it fits in you budget, what the heck! It's locally made, as well as a Honda, so you can't really go wrong, as I am sure there are warranties and such from Brazil's Honda dealer network.

get it, why they don't import bikes like this is beyond me I am sure there would be a market for smaller capacity adventure bikes in the UK.

also look at the Yamaha 250 Tenere

I rekon either of these bikes would be worth bringing home with you too
