  • [Photo Feature]: cbr 250r knocking when accelerating and power loss

    I have a CBR 250R 2014 model year, run for 24500 kms only. I am facing a strange problem with my bike. When I put the bike in idle and twist the throttle suddenly, the bike sounds like knocking kek kek kek.

    I went to my mechanic and show my bike he test rode it. He put it in idle in neutral and twisted the throttle suddenly and decelerated the bike. He pulled the clutch lever and again did the same thing. The sound is somewhat better when pulling the clutch. The bike never sounds bad when kept in idle. Only upon sudden acceleration it sounds worst.

    He told me clutch housing is the culprit. The same day he changed the clutch housing and the primary gear. Clutch plates is also replaced as there is no pickup. The bike sounds good for 2-3 days and after that the second problem started.

    The bike knocks upon acceleration sounds like a kodokodo. Also, the bike struggles when climbing uphill. I cannot accelerate suddenly because of this issue and the bike has no power .The mechanic told me that he thinks it is a loose piston, please help me. Is it going to be a crankshaft problem or a loose piston? What about the estimate repair? Will it run like new after fixing? I thought hondas are reliable.

      Well, i don't know i can really compare this but my bajaj discover 100t also faced the similar problem....after browsing the web all i did was give the initial throttle slowly then once when i felt the bike will pull i opened the throttle wide and it quite helped me.... Coming to the point wherw you think it might be crankshaft or any engine or gearbox related problem....the quality of these things are too good i mean too good so problems like these are not supposed to occur....i feel there is a problem in the combustion phase i mean some problem with the valves.....its what i feel....but for a second opinion get your bike to a trusted mechanic or the honda service center.

          I am not sure if CBR250 has the idle adjustment but the Ninja 250 definitely has! Ninja 250 is FI as well! Kindly check the user manual once!

              Can you check the spark plug condition?

              BTW, any specific reason you want the bike to idle at 1.5k rpm? My Ninja 250 idles at 1k rpm

                normal cbr idles at 1500rpm but my cbr never idles. it starts at 1500rpms and idle rpm goes down 0 and dies.

                  Throttle body? Have you inspected the throtte body? Might need cleaning. Does the bike move?
