Re: Honda CBR 250R

We tried this disconnect/reconnect method due to problems we faced over a month long time time. After spending close to two thousand rupees on injection cleaners, air filters, spark plugs, OBD testing, compression check, shim clearances, lord knows what all we did, plus labor charges, this idea was suggested to me by a mechanic in the Hyundai ASC. Gave this a "try" and solved this issue, as I reiterated, it's been close to year now. Even after a year, it's still butterflies in the stomach about this judder every single time I crank my car to this day.

Secondly, I removed my CBR's battery once when it was used to jump start an R15. Hardly a 30 min gap, absolutely no change whatsoever. Post installation, the bike cranked with half a crank as usual, idling was erractic for a few seconds, just a blip of the throttle and she was purring like a kitten, no problem till date.

The sentiments of going through what works according to manual and what works according to experience may be unique to an individual, I am not in any liberty to talk about that. But what I am sharing with the little I've learned is for the betterment of an individual's knowledge so that he/she can think about an alternative as an option.

Leech, finally check your air filter, as I reiterated earlier, I am suspecting there is something fishy about the way your bike breathes, your airfilter, try installing a new one, if you haven't for a while, and then "experiment" with the above method.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Can somebody let me know the exact part/serial number of all balls tapered bearings.

One of the colleague is travelling to Germany, I am thinking of ordering the same from him.

Please let me know the exact part number for the same.

On the All ball website, this is the product number which is listed Part Number 22-1020 Steering Bearing Kit, is this correct ?

Also does this kit includes the lower and upper bearings or there are different part numbers for both lower and upper bearings.

Cheers,
Sanjay

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Local and international variants have slightly different part numbers, but mostly they are the same. I am having trouble posting my photos from mobile, PM me your email ID I will send you the snapshot.

For All Balls bearing part number w.r.t to our coneset bearings, it's a good idea to shoot these guys a mail so they can help you with your query. You don't want to get the wrong part.

From their website.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

I've already changed the air filter. No difference. Its not a spark plug problem, else the problem will be occurring much more often.

And I stopped using injector cleaners because I noticed engine oil leakage from CCT and engine areas 2 days after. Could be a coincidence, but I didn't wanna take chances.

Need help

I have a 2011 CBR 250R ABS. I recently purchased it used and spent around 7K at the service station for some maintenance work. It included things like Oil changes, 2 SHIM Change, Chain and Sprocket replace, and few things here and there (cosmetic)

Bike is smoother than before and as is mentioned in this thread slightly gruff below 3.4 - 4 K RPS. SO I am at peace.

This evening, when returning with my wife, she said that she heard a sound like "khissss Khisssss" as if something is rubbing against something else. It was not loud and even after trying I could not hear that. It is audible to her when the throttle is ON. On rolling downhill with the clutch engaged as well as disengaged, the sound was not there.

What could it be?

I checked for tire touching anything - No
I checked the Chain tension - it has around 25 mm play

Being a new owner of a used bike, I am feeling a little concerned.

Re: Need help

Don't be so much concerned, it is the drive chain which is rubbing against the chain sliders. Every bike has this little noise.

Also when you sit as a pillion, you do not get the same sound from the bike as compared to.when you are riding the bike.

Best thing would be to handover your bike to your friend and you sit as a pillion and then check.

But mostly, it will be the chain rubbings against chain slider.

Sanjay

Re: Need help

Thanks! Will try and keep a keen ear tomorrow. May use the cruiser helmet for a day (instead of the Full face). Hand my bike over to a friend? Nopes!! Am too much possesive about her

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Hey Everybody,

I've a 2013 CBR ABS & and ever since i bought it, the front pads keeps on rubbing against the disk after every hard braking for few mins. It has that "khassssss" sound continously coming from the disk.

I showed it to SVC long ago and he said its normal for every ABS model!? Is it really normal or i should get few things done to keep it away?

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Hi Zaid I Too Have 2014 ABS Model...

Initially I Too Had The Same Doubt...

I Tried The SVC He Said The Same "It's Normal Sir"

Then After Some Days, After Going Through Some Videos On YouTube. I Removed The Callipar From The Front Disk. Removed The Pads. Pulled The Pins And Almost Dismantled Everything. Used Break Cleaner Pray Can To Clean Everything Inside, Then Used Normal Engine Oil To Lubricate The Break Cylinders And Assembled Everything Back Again.

Now Bingo There Was No Sound Whatsoever From The Front Breaks...

I Took A 3km Ride And Again I Heard The Same Break Pad Rubbing On Disk Sound.

I Realised The Hard Way, That Coz It's ABS Your Pad Is Always On Contact If You Are Below 20kmph. Once You Are Above That It Parts Away And There Is No Sound.

This I Realized After Running On A Nice Clean Road I Pulled The Bike Just Using The Rear Break And Checked The Front Just By Rotating It By Hand There Was No Sound, But If I Apply Front Breaks To Reduce The Speed For Speed Breaker, I Still Here The Sound Break Pad Brushing With The Disk...

So Moral Of The Story Is "Yes The It's Normal On The ABS Model's"

Ride Safe...:thumbup:

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Well then i guess we all have to live with that noise. [emoji13]

Thanks for your reply though, i was thinking of cleaning it too but now i wont as it doesn't help.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Can you explain how a nob on the exhaust would determine the AFR ?

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Almost all disc brake pads have some form of contact with the rotor, that's why you would hear a muted "zing zing" kind of sound when you rotate either your front or rear wheel, perfectly normal. If the sound is more high pitched and squeaky, it's mainly due to pad material dust accumulation or pad wear. Pad sound is usually more prominent on the rear wheel as opposed to the front wheel. I haven't heard any such sounds in my bike, considering it too is an ABS one, unfortunately I didn't hear any strange sounds from the front when riding or when the bike was purchased.

Cheers!

Re: Honda CBR 250R

I have a squeaky sound coming from rear brakes ever since I changed the brake pads.

Same sound on my dual disc cycle too.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

On a lighter note, it seems all your problems arise after a part replacement, your stalling issue, which almost caused a conundrum on this thread was started after you've replaced your filter, now your brake squeals after you've changed the pad. Next time you change your sprocket, you might as well start flying instead of riding on the road. Ha ha.

Re: Honda CBR 250R


rainy season its normal.
also pad is new sometimes touches for few days. should be good in a 100 KM.
