Anybody using philips xtremevision plus bulb in the cbr?I want to know if it's a direct fit or not,since the wattage is same as stock I'm thinking of switching mine from stock,although the stock one is pretty decent and does the job flawlessly but I want more..Please throw some light..[emoji16]

Yup it's a direct fit, my brother is using on his cbr250r. It's a considerable improvement over the stock bulb considering at 600₹, there are few options available.

Add the pulsar 220 rear brake pads. Btw, I thought you sold the CBR since you bought the versys. How has the rides been on the versys? Would you still pick it over the CBR 650F?

22k on conti's..... dude you are one brave human...... those things should not be on any motorcycle.
CHANGE TYRES ASAP......

you have below options.

Michelin Pilot street ( front + back ) about 10k -- best bet
Michelin pilot sport ( front + back) about 6-7k . hard compound and dont buy
MRF - Massater ( front FC1 and rear massater ) - 6k ish. good combo

Thx a lot again. Bought Michelin Pilot Street Radial tires for both front n rear.
It seems the rear contigo tyre was in pretty bad situation. The air pressure became pretty low even in a day. Checked thrice for puncture but nothing was found. But tyre's physical condition wasn't that bad.
Now just eager to see performance of Michelin.

How much did those Michelin's cost you?

Some Bad news and good news for CBR250R Bangalore owners.
Bad news : Karthik from Tansi Honda have left Whitefield Tansi Honda showroom. He has moved out. People who serviced from there after he left haven't been happy about the service.
Good news: He is now working in 'Highlander Ventures LLC', A multi-brand motorcycle service center , located at Sector 1, HSR Layout. Incidentally, this service center is owned by the same owner of Tansi Honda, so parts for CBR250R are available off the shelf. They are stocking KTM parts too, and would be doing the same with some super bikes and Yamaha R series as well.
They are stocking Motul oils now along with Honda Throttle FS oil, and will soon stock Shell Ultra FS for CBR owners.
This SVC again may not be a good news for new owners or owners in warranty period as this is not a Honda ASC.
Now its easy for me since I dont have to travel 25 kms to reach the old service center, this one is quite close to my place and reachable in half an hour. I serviced my birdie from this new place yesterday and can assure that all is good. The crowd is less now since its a new place, but still an appointment is recommended before going for a full service.

Checklist for the service .
1. Both brake pads replace. Front EBC Double H rated sintered pads supplied by myself, rear OEM.
2. Replace worn out rubber mounts and re-torque all nuts and bolts (Trying to keep vibes in check here).
3. Shell Ultra FS finally, with oil filter change.
4. Chain Clean and Lube (This guy uses only Motul chain clean and lube and charges a reasonable 250 bucks for the same. He literally sits and cleans each link )
5. Adjust cone-set .
6. Clean Air filter/Replace if necessary.

This was it. My bike is more than 5 years old, running on new coolant, fluids etc. So basically I did not have any other major issue with the machine. Happy soul munching around 55km/day in hectic Bangalore traffic, where most of the roads are now non-existent. The service was excellent as usual, and a full service cost Rs.600 + Rs.250 for chain clean and lube, and the rest based on what is changed. Labor rates are same as Honda, no changes here.

After the service, I couldn't honestly feel much difference in smoothness with the Shell FS oil, but it should last more than the Honda Throttle with its properties surviving a longer interval. Today I noticed some gear slips as well, will give it some time to bed in, same with rear brake pads too. EBC front pads are a different story. It immediately bed in and have immaculate bite. Excellent.

How much it will cost for this ebc pads for non abs models?
