The bike isn't a jet engine that you take off straightaway to 400 KMPH. It's how you transition both as a biker and bike itself. The power is a decent 83 odd BHP and it isn't gonna make you feel underpowered nor make you gun it like a maniac. It's having a calm head, riding within your limits, on a highway the 600 can cruise at 140 to 160 with absolutely no drama considering one doesn't t behave like an idiot inside city limits. You can lose your life in a 100 cc going uncontrollably at 95 KMPH and you could do the same in a 600 going at 85...It's just a thin line.

I agree and disagree.

83 bhp as you said is very controllable its some 115bhp less than the current litre class bike.

Cruising at 140-160 is not safe in our country. Not yet.

As I said, it's always using ones beans and the discretion to know when and where to use it is all that matters. So, now that we know that, let's close this topic and get back to some wrenching as usual. Would request members not to drag on this topic, anymore.

Cheers!

Yes buddy! I didn't know that disc pads would wear out so soon so i noticed a bit late. Till then the pads had scratched the plate badly. And moreover the tyre shop guy bent the plate further more. So changed both the pads and plate today.

Keep me updated on how you bed em , will be changing myself , anything in particular I gotta follow? My use of rear brakes is probably 20-30 % my front does the job mainly cause of the steel braided line. Also guys how do you clean the disc plates with kerosene or something else?

I will update buddy! The plate tends to get really hot but it's only until it beds in. Had noticed this when the bike was new. And AFAIK, there is no need to wash the discs with kerosene and all. Just clean it with soap water when you clean the bike, that should do.

just use some soapy water (like vim dish wash) and a scrubber (like the green scotch brite that is used to clean dishes.)

Then it's cool. Thanks👍

Don't do it mate! Removing the filter cover will attract more dust. Your bike is brand new so I would advise you to put it back ASAP! The bike has awesome growl which starts from 4.5k rpm. Enjoy that!

Thanks for the advice. I've spoken to the cbr mechanic regarding this. I trust the guy. He has done most of my other vehicle servicings too earlier. But then thanks for showing your concern. Really appreciate it man.
Cheers! Ride safe!

Just got my bike back from svc. Changed the rear disc rotor along with the pads. Here is the cost breakup:
Disc rotor rear, non-ABS: ₹1333
Rear disc pads: ₹865
Is there anyone on this forum who gave his black 2016 edition cbr for service at Saphire, Jayanagar? Just a thought that the person might be from here

Waiting for the rear pads and rotor to bed in now

Odo at 10,060kms.

Cheers! Ride safe!

I have 2014 black edition. I always get service done at saphire Jayanagar , simply because of the lead mechanic Zishan. His commitment and dedication towards work is top notch.For instance , during the Ramzan time he worked on my bike continuously without taking any break. I insisted him to take a break , he carried on as if he didn't hear me. He knows CBR250 in and out. I always insist on Zishan do the job for my CBR at least.

You can you the below attached mobile mount for clipon handle if there is provision left on the clutch lever
I have been using this one on my Yamaha R3 and its doing fine.

Thanks for the suggestion. But then there doesn't seem to be any space left on the handle bars...

No I'am not talking about the handlebar.
I think there is a blanked out provision for rvm in clutch lever pivot point ( like the ones on normal commuter bikes) .You can put a bolt and attach the holder I sent to you.
Another expensive option is to have ram mount.

That's a great idea. I'll see if that works. Thanks for the help mate.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Can anyone help me to adjust the Clutch play in cbr with some video link or DIY instructions...

and what is the difference in half clutch and full clutch? which is good for B2B traffic conditions?

Right now I pull the clutch lever fully to eliminate any sound during gear shifts...
Will this be resolved by changing the clutch play?
