Hey guys

Can anyone tell me how to loosen the throttle cable? The throttle feels a bit jammed.

Also can the battery be charged at a local battery shop? I was told by the SVC that CBR's battery does not need charging as it is a dry battery.

If your throttle cable seems to be stuck or gets stuck intermittently and then loosens up or jammed, one solution is to replace the throttle cables. The CBR has two accelerator cables, one to pull and other to retract. A and B change them both. Jamming cables can lock the throttle when you least expect, can cause unwarranted crashes or even death. Replace the cables.

And yes all batteries can be recharged, only the charging time and the way they are charged differs.

Do front telescopic fork seals upon leakage get covered under extended warranty?

Yes. Fork seals are under warranty too.

Guys I have a few queries, I apologize in advance if its been repeated or a noob one.

1) I'd like to know how much of fuel the last bar of fuel holds? Cause I fill up at 1 bar and my tank is full at 600rs i.e 9.08 ltrs. The tank capacity is 13ltrs , correct me if I'm wrong. The last bar or two holds 4 ltrs of fuel?

With the last bar and the bike upright, you'd have approx 2.5 liters. If the segment is blinking, then you have even less fuel.

Cheers!

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Guys I'm having a squeaky noise from the rear suspension area whenever going over bad roads or squatting up and down on the bike. I know Jon Niranjan had his suspension bush replaced, but his issue was a thwack sound. [emoji14]

Should I take notice of this and lug it to the svc immediately or can I wait for a month or so?

I had/have the same issue, it requires greasing. It will be ok for sometime after that, have to do it again if it crops up.

Hello Guys,
Can anyone tell me the procedure and interval to clean the fuel injectors? The bike feels a bit jerky at low rpms. I use normal unleaded fuel. And is it safe to use injector cleaners like STP, Abro etc.

It is safe to use the injector cleaners from stp/abro, but don't ask me about their effectiveness. I've used them or rather experimented (on my D200) but i cannot say for sure if they did any cleaning, at-least there was no negative impact.
For the jerkiness, i'd say first check things such as air filter, throttle cable, clutch/plates. Also check if the petrol tank vent is not blocked.
How old is the bike ?

The bike is one year old. Done 12k kms. I was thinking about injector cleaners as a precautionary measure so that i don't have to go for throttle body cleaning in future.

My throttle feels a bit jammed because i tried to loosen the throttle cable myself and messed it up. Will get it checked soon.

Can a loose chain cause jerking?

Also want to know about a good chain lube. Been using Motul so far and it has served good but want to try other brands as well.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Hey guys,
I was looking for an used CBR250 ABS variant. I searched up online, two of which were available, others didn't respond. I'm going today evening to check out one of them. Also it will be a 2012 model, black CBR250 ABS, 15k mileage, asking price is 1L.

Are there any specifics to look for in this bike? I'm new to the city, hence no one would be accompanying me. Any suggestions?
Thanks

This thread talks precisely about this (new, old alike) - http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/motorcyc...on-thread.html

Hey Divya. thanks. That was useful. I checked up the bike today evening but it got dark. That's why going to check it up again in daylight, also he told me, it needed servicing as it was mileage 15k and last being done at 12k.
>Electrical problem it seemed as it had a neon bulb which he told blew up the console light. Don't know if it's true.
>Bike had small scratches everywhere. Engine was fine IMO and gears smooth, need to test ride a new one and compare maybe.

I think I need to look out for a few more options.

it'll be perfect..

just give it a spin, alternatively, you got the Duke 200/D390, Himalayan, Benelli (not recommended, unless you want a good sound feedback)

Old model, but I was about to pick it but went to the RC200, I'm not complaining, but the RC does suit me just fine for touring & commute, just feel it's overpowered for commute & underpowered for touring.. so the CBR should also be on similar lines.. again, hit a test ride & then take your pick..

2007 - 2010	Kinetic Nova
2010 - 2015	Honda Unicorn
2014 - 2019	KTM RC 200
2017 - Today	KTM Duke 390
