Loncin GP300 was recently unveiled in China. This lesser known brand currently has no physical presence in India but may soon consider entering with a potential product like GP300. The exclusive design makes this motorcycle well in competition with Apache RR310 of India. It won’t be right to consider RC 390 here as power values will differ by a huge margin. Loncin GP300 uses water cooled, 292.4cc, fuel injected single cylinder engine that is good for 29 HP at 8500 rpm and 25 Nm at 7000 rpm. This engine comes with 6-speed gearbox while slipper clutch is not mentioned under its spec sheet.
The fully faired sportbike comes with twin front LED lights. This enhances the overall design of Loncin GP300, placing it right between the smartest looking above quarter liter bikes of all time. Single disc brakes are on offer at both ends while ABS goes missing from its list of features. Front uses 110 mm tyre size while rear is equipped with 150 mm tyre for optimum level of grip on the road. Exhaust used here is underbelly type while rear gets an independent tyre hugger. Loncin offers GP300 with USD front forks for impressive handling in most riding conditions.
The compact digital console on GP300 is Orange back-lit and offers a clear view of values like speed reading and tachometer position. They have painted the frame Red and thus, all three shades (Red, White and Black/Green) get same visible Red section under the rider seat. Fuel tank capacity of 16 liters make it good for ideal medium distance riding. Being a single cylinder engine, the unit on Loncin GP300 may not sip as much fuel as twin cylinder 300cc bikes. Turn indicators are neatly studded into the motorcycle. Every lighting component used here is offered with LED technology.
