Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike

In addition to the above post, with all the mess that I am personally facing ( lack of trained mechanics/ parts) I would highly suggest against the cbr.

Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike

If any cbr owner residing in mumbai and looking for trained and experienced mechanic, please let me know. I know a mechanic who does all major works of cbr at affordable labour charge.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Guys , in my cbr its too hard to corner towards right side. But to left side its ok. I am using stock conitigos. What will be the reason? Bearing recently changed ( back one )

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Check the tyre pressure. Front bearings. Check front tyre condition.

Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike

Tell me? where is this person required and does he know that the oil strainer is to be cleaned every 1000 km ?

For the rear axel, for both the sides what was the size for the ring spanner? I am planning to buy a pair to tighten my chain on the go.

Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike


Thank you for your response.
The owner is in abroad for higher studies. And in RC I can see the person who came to meet me his name is mentioned as his father. He is agreed to accept half cash and half as bank transfer.
The bike has run 27k KMS, 2014 model. No problems at all as far as I can see. I'm attaching some images so that senior members can advise me on the same.
And is it true that there is parts shortage for this bike? I have not finalized the deal yet. The asking price is 80k.

Any fellow rider from Chennai who owns CBR250R C-ABS can please confirm if there is any shortage of parts or mechanics. I'm planning for servicing in Didar honda ,340,Anna Salai,Opp.Thousand lights Mosque.
Please confirm as soon as possible. thanks in advance.

Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike

The oil strainer that sits below the oil pump doesn't need to be cleaned every time. As a general rule, every 6 to 10k would be the ideal interval. Secondly, if one can DIY, then it can be cleaned every oil change.

Coming to the commotion of the availability of spares, the CBR 250R is one odd one of the lot that has different opinions with regard to spare availability. Second,y spares are available for the 250 R but they are available on-demand on most sub-dealers. Usually the mothership or the main service center, like DIDAR for example do stock parts for the CBR 250R. Most of the parts for the CBR aren't expensive to consider this one a deal-breaker.

Secondly, from the pictures you've posted, the bike looks pretty much okay. One oddity though, perhaps it might be the angle, I feel your chain sprocket has come to the half mark, meaning it has half more life left. Secondly, check your rear wheel alignment, the sensors and the Pulser ring nut are too close for comfort, when compared the caliper mount. I do see a nick on the ABS Pulser ring on the rear wheel and I suspect a misalignment. From the looks of it, the rear wheel ABS sensor and the Pulser ring nut are too close.

Check your ABS for any faults. The ABS light should go off after 10 KMPH on the speedo, indicating a healthy ABS system. Do keep a close eye on the test ride, check for any abnormal sounds emanating from the rear wheel. If the ABS light blinks constantly during the ride, or blinks fast, it's time to check the sensor and what not.

All the best!

Cheers!

Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike


Thank you so much for your reply sir.
A fellow member mentioned here Didar motors as his servicing center. I can't recall his name i'm sorry for that. But the google reviews for this service center are horrible. I found another servicing center named DS MOTO which is located in Perungudi. I took a glance at their facebook page and every customer posted that the servicing is very satisfying there and price is also reasonable. I'm thinking of paying them a visit tomorrow.
Another thing I need to ask that, is it a MUST to obtain the actual invoice of the bike from the seller or else I won't be able to pay the road tax when I change the state? I haven't talked with the seller about this.

About the pulsar ring nut I have noticed it also but the abs system is working absolutely fine. The abs light went off as it should after 10kmph. And I successfully tested the abs system while I was around 35kmph. I will give it another look. Thank you so much.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

I found two pre-owned cbrs please advise me to which one to choose:

1. 2015 22000kms abs single owner, 1,35,000 INR...
2. 2014 38000kms abs second owner, 95,000 INR...

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Usually, it's better to go for the lesser priced one, financially. The vehicle's condition does come into play w.r.t pricing and the mileage on the odo. A thorough test ride will give you clear picture.

Cheers!

Re: Regarding payment proof of second hand bike

Not spoiling the mood, but the tank looks repainted to me. Where is the Honda logo on it ? Its impossible to remove it without repainting.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Thanks for your reply...

By the way, it is possible to complete k2k ride with these any one of the above two machines without any hassle...

My question is "Is the pre-owned cbr is as reliable as the new one after a good full service"...

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Bought mine with 4k on the odo in 2013. Done over 50k now.
This one just needs regular service and that's all.
If the engine and gearbox checks out, there's no major issue that could give you any trouble.

Its better to stick with models which have documented service history. Have seen a case at service centre where a CBR150 was run with odometer disconnected & serviced locally.
The unsuspecting second owner had a shock once he took the bike to authorised service centre. Had to shell out for major repairs to engine head and valves.

Re: Honda CBR 250R

Hi,

I am also looking for pre owned cbrs. Can you please pm your contact number? Thx

Re: Honda CBR 250R
