  • Re: Honda CBR 250R

    Guys the SVC mechanic said a cylinder piston kit would cost around 9k. Is this true or is the mech just bluffing?
    My bikes fine, just enquiring about the various part prices.

        AFAIK, changing tyre size does effect the ABS, rest everything you wont find any visible difference
        Regarding manufacturing date , have a look here (Decoding Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) Of 2-Wheeler)
        Thank you frinds for your suggestions, Yes MRF is good, but still Michelin gives good grip than them. ( One of my friend wants to buy stock MRFs ) I will go for the stock size only,as it is affecting the ABS,

          Do not worry a bit about 150/60 for abs version, have lot of guys in my group with this size on abs version and no issues at all. Besides 140/70 MSR is having very rounded profile and small contact patch, it hardly feels like a 140 size and price difference between 140 and 150 is very negligible. You get improved breaking, similar contact patch as a stock Conti or MRF and bigger cornering confidence.

                  If you go by the pricing then CBR250r is under priced actually.

                      You donot get a modern technology, latest designed, reliablity tested and manufactured product of a world class quality @ this price. Well maybe not now but when I bought non abs version in 2011 for 1.55 it certainly was underpriced.

                        For 2017 it's surely is overpriced looking at the competetion and it's not been updated too.

                          150/60 are the track spec size tyres on the 250, if I planned to hit the track I plan to get a set of mrf rev f1 and c1 for the track and use Michelin 140/70 for the road. Also there won't be a speedo error with 150/60? I used a 140/60 temporarily because conti gos were a pain in the butt with continual punctures, do keep me updates on usage and how they perform, they aren't ideal for potholes n bumps ive heard.

                            Its over priced because its CBU from Thailand, if Honda managed to manufacture locally, I'm sure we would have the range of the 250/350rr or the 300 r or the 500r.

                              Current cbr250r is manufactured here in India. It is not CBU/CKD.
