I checked the ergos and the riding position I found very favorable, not too committed but not too upright. This bike does quite alright in the city, a bit more of low end torque would have been welcomed, but it's a highway mile muncher and can do hours and hours of riding without much issues apart from ur butt depending on condition of your seat.
    Thanks for the info bud. Things are clear now and I know what to expect from next version, which probably will be a 280 cc mill from Brazil market.

      If by the rumours are true, the 300 should launch by feb 2018, auto expo, it's essential the same engine and chassis with a few different parts, fairings but not sure entirely but you'll have 31-32bhp and slight more torque,

        I think we will get 25 hp version. I don’t think they will launch more powerful version because of upcoming fuel changes and other domestic factors.

          25bhp? No chance, 31-32 BHP is the stock version, they wouldn't de tune and sell the bike in a lower power output with a higher price, it will simply not sell. Even the updated 250 single gives out about 29 as opposed to 26 in the current one. It simply does not make sense to give a depowered bike with other contenders offering more power and tech and lesser or similar price point, it makes 0 business sense to do that, soo we will get the 31-32 BHP 300 or 29bhp 250.

            We always get detuned version. Even triumph’s are detuned. They might drop the price a bit. no point in selling at 2l when FZ25 sells for 115k.

              We don't, the cbr 250 r has or had standard power for all the countries, I. E 25bhp till 2013 then 26 from the models therefore, nobody will buy detuned models, soo Honda will give us the proper models just with the same instrument cluster to keeps costs at bay but as you've mentioned no chance of that detuned models, trust, it will literally put them in losses.

                Guys any idea on the cleaning /replacement time interval of the fuel filter or cleaning of throttle body? My bike occasionally cuts off while riding, I suspect it's most likely one of the two.

                    Guys I my CBR's stator coil is burned and there is no stock in Chennai showrooms. Because of this my bike is idle for almost 2 weeks.

                    When asked for order, they are saying that due to holidays they are closed until Jan 8 2018.

                    I have a small ride on Jan 6 and a big ride on Jan 26. And this spare issue is a great threat to those 2 rides. So, can anyone help me in sourcing this part. I can transfer the amount if anyone is willing to help me in this.

                    Please PM me or post a reply.

                    P.S: I live on Chennai.

                      @ Ram Bhai - I would love to help, but the service centers here just don't function properly on holiday periods.

                          I was informed that there is already a bike waiting there for stator coil replacement. But good news is that my CBR technician said that part might be available by monday, so keeping my hopes high.

                          Will update on the progress here.

                                Hey guys,


                                CBR noob here The stock contigo tyres don't inspire much confidence. Does it get better after say about 500 kms?

                                Because mine is a new bike and still running - in and the tyre seems to wobble on uneven surfaces in higher speeds.

                                Any suggestions or should i change the tyre?

                                Also what is the right tyre pressure for cbr?
