Hi Guys,

Travelled from Bangalore to Ahmedabad on my cbee 250, I had serviced my bike at Bangalore unfortunately bike is making sounds.

The sound is similar to a worn out timer chain. ( I know this because I had replaced the same about 7k KM's back with tensioner along with 2 worn shims back at Bangalore at dhruvdesh Honda)

Concern: I am aware of Honda reliability and very happy about it but the same issue occuring within 10k KM's is something alarming.

Now that I have traveled to Ahmedabad I tried leaving the bike at Apex Honda Maninagar Ahmedabad to get it fixed but the tech guy says that he tried to replace the tensioner and the sound did not reduce so he needs to open the engine to look if anything is wrong with tappets. ( Not sure is tappet exists because of shims) and it would take 15days to close the job card.
This made me a little cautious and asked the mechanic to cancel the job card.

Please guide me to someone who can help me out here and get things fixed at a professional level. Below are few more details.

Model: CBR 250R STD (2014)
Odo reading: 60k
Driving mode: cruise at 110 to 120 kmph
All services done timely at ASC, No Major issues with engine yet.
Sounds/noise: tick tick (clock ticking sound near the engine)
Knowledge on mechanical parts: Moderate
Mileage: 30kmpl
Last oil replaced: 1800kms back at ASC Bangalore

Questions:
1) Where can I get my bike fixed? A knowledgeable guy at Honda possibly.
2) What are the side effects if I do keep riding the same and get the problem fixed back at Bangalore?
3) Can I claim any kind of warranty at Ahmedabad if it's the issue was fixed earlier at Bangalore?
4) Has anyone here made similar fixes at ASC and if feedback can be shared?

Waiting for valuable assistance, thanks in advance.

Now you know why people steal that thing. [emoji12] [emoji12]

Well I had my tensioner replaced under warranty at the same interval that is at 4k kms. Now my odo stands at 12k kms and the cct started making sounds again! Currently I am in my native and svc here doesn't have any cbr mechs! What I did was I took off the cct, retracted the shaft a few times using the screw inside the cct and put it back again and voila! Ticking noise is gone now. I think the problem with these ccts is they don't push the tensioner completely when the timing chain gets loose and that causes the sound. Again this is only my take on it I'm not sure about it! But my bike is fixed for now

Try Yamaha service center as well they might be having the stock as the same is used in R15's

Nop, it doesn't come alone. Only with new mirror

Bought some for my r15 at service center for rs 4 a piece

Guys
Today was the first time i noticed temprature more than 3bars on my bike. This happened in traffic where i ride daily. I haven't seen it more than 3 bars even in worst taffics jams. But today i was seeing 4-5 bars even at 30-40kph.
Fan was constantly on. Even when i turned on the ignition after letting it cool down for 20 mins.
Coolant and oil is at optimum level.

What might be the problem? I had posted coolant leakage problem from thermostat cover a few weeks back. Still waiting for parts to arrive. What might be the problem? Faulty thermostat? Temp sensor?

Open radiator cap to check coolant level - seems low to me. If yes, fill it.

Yes, this could be the reason.
Don't trust on coolant level in coolant reservoir.
In your case, due to leakage radiator not able to pull coolant from reservoir when bike cools down.

coolant reservoir is showing coolant at optimum level. didn't check it from the radiator cap. Can i use any coolant? or is there a specific kind of coolant for cbr250r? sorry for my ignorance.

Problem solved? Double hear any sound now. Please update.

Thanks for the information.
I will try to get it from Yamaha SVC.
