Europe's Next-Generation Mid-Sized Scooter
Slimmer, lighter and faster than anything that has come before.
Honda's exciting new SH300i sets a bold new direction in the development of
mid-sized scooters with breathtaking performance, incomparable riding control and
comfort and by far the slimmest, most compact proportions in its entire class. Featuring
the same easy-mounting step-through flat floorboard frame and large 16" wheels that
have made Honda's SH series the most popular and best-selling scooters in Europe, the
new SH300i represents a quantum leap forward in both scooter engine and chassis
design.
Powered by the smallest yet most powerful and fastest accelerating fuel-injected
4-stroke single-cylinder engine in the mid-displacement class, the SH300i delivers
dynamic performance, crisp, neutral handling and confident high-speed control on par
with sporting motorcycles, yet coupled with the smoothest, most comfortable ride ever
experienced in any scooter of any size. Figure in Combined antilock brakes, ample
carrying capacity and sleek, attractive lines that draws admiring attention wherever it
goes, and the SH300i undeniably sets the pace for style and performance in largedisplacement
scooters for years to come.
Main Features
The new SH300i boasts an impressive list of styling and technological features
unheard of in the world of scooters until now. The future is here, and it's brighter than
ever.
Styling Features
'Solid and Elegant' design projects a heightened sense of quality and prestige.
Much slimmer, smaller and more compact body proportions than comparable
mid-displacement scooter models.
Flat floorboard provides ample legroom and easy mounting and dismounting.
Ample carrying capacity includes compact compartment under locking seat with
room for a half helmet or other necessities.
785mm seat height to provide an ideal balance of rider eye level and comfortable
seating.
Water-resistant forward glove box features DC socket for charging mobile phones
and other accessories.
Performance Features
All-new fuel-injected, liquid-cooled 280cc SOHC 4-valve engine delivers the
strongest performance and fastest acceleration in its class.
Sealed crankcase design separates the crank cavity from the oil reservoir to
eliminate windage resistance caused by crankshaft contacting motor oil.
New sealed crankcase design features one-way reed valve to evacuate both oil and
air pressure from the crank cavity for greatly improved power characteristics,
quicker acceleration and much better mileage than current 250cc-class scooter
engines.
Sealed crankcase design also makes possible a much smaller and lighter engine,
with a more compact oil pan that permits lower engine positioning while
maintaining ample ground clearance.
Plain bearing crankshaft eliminates conventional ball bearings for reduced
vibration, noise and mechanical loss.
PGM-FI electronic fuel injection system fully integrated into one compact 34mm
throttle body unit that includes the ECU, sensors and high-performance digital
ignition for easy starting, high performance and exceptional fuel economy.
HECS3 oxygen-sensing catalytic converter system reduces harmful exhaust
emissions to well below strict EURO-3 regulations.
Chassis Features
Newly developed underbone-style scooter frame achieves more responsive
handling and greater high-speed stability with its unique flat floorboard than any
other scooter in its class.
Shortest wheelbase in class at 1,420mm for lighter handling and easier
manoeuvrability in tight situations.
Revolutionary new 'floating link' unit swingarm pivot system achieves smoother
handling, lower vibration and more stable high-speed control than any scooter in
its class.
Compliant, sure-handling 35mm motorcycle-style telescopic front fork.
Comfortable-riding dual-damper rear suspension.
Large-diameter 16" wheels made popular on the SH series provide smoother,
more comfortable handling, especially at higher speeds.

stopping ease. Advanced ABS version also available for the ultimate in braking
ease and control.
Combined-ABS version features three-piston front callipers for the ultimate in
sports riding braking control.
Equipment Features
Sleekly styled instrument panel features large, easy-to-read central speedometer,
coolant temperature and fuel gauges, large LCD digital clock and dual-trip meter,
and assortment of indicator lights.
HISS immobiliser security system.
SH-exclusive rear carrier specially designed for easy one-touch mounting of
optional 35-litre top box.
