Re: Honda CBR 250R
Up to you, but technically Motul 7100 10W40 FS is slightly superior to any of the 10W40 FS engine oils except Shell 10W40 FSOriginally posted by pinkesh2703 View Post
Boy!! I was bewildered, baffled & possibly bamboozled by "A" instead of "I" - I meant nissIn!! Galfer is sintered; you should be able to Google, let us know other pls.Originally posted by k.sagar View Post
It's some amount of oil always, always gets evaporated from any 4S & 2S engine be it 2, 4, 6 or n wheeler as long as its powered by fossil fuel & uses oil for lubricant. Ideally need to keep checking every 1000 Km to be on safer side until we understand our steeds well. For instance, my C250R needs top-up at 2500 Km & every 1200 odd Km there after until 8K.

Re: Honda CBR 250R
Hi guys
I've a 2018 abs model, currently 13,000 km on the odo. All the engine oil & oil filter changes are done in time, last oil change was done at 11,330 km, last oil filter was replaced at 8,250km, air filter was replaced at 8,000 km and I'm a sedate rider.
I'm facing a weird problem. My engine oil level has reduced drastically and suddenly in the last 200 km from top mark to around lower mark on the engine oil level check window. I topped it up with around 250 ml.
I'm using Rimula R4 with OEM oil filter.
Apparently there is no visible oil leakage on the outside.
Any pointers what could be the reason for the sudden oil level drop?Last edited by cbr250abs; 11-27-2020, 04:55 PM.

Re: Honda CBR 250R
Hi aargee
Mine is abs model, currently running stock nissan pads.
Front one's performance is good but rear feels woody.
Are galfer's sintered one or ceramic?
Could you share a link to purchase those online?Originally posted by aargee View PostUse Galfer brake pads in the front (if yours is a ABS) or switch to Nissin master cylinder for STD. Use rear brakes as less as possible

Re: Honda CBR 250R
Currently I'm using Motul 7100 10W40 oil in my CBR 250. Odo will hit 50k kms in few days.
Now I am thinking to shift to Liqui Molly. So I want to know ~ should I move to Liqui Molly or Motul 7100 is still decent enough ?

I am not happy with the stock rear pads.

Re: Honda CBR 250R
How tall are you and can we have a apache pic as well?Originally posted by cbr250abs View PostThe issue is resolved by re routing the brake hose to its original location ( mine is ABS model ), all is good now. All the cables are stock. In retrospect, I consider it worth the effort.
New Apache clipons are considerably taller ( ~2 inch ) and wider ( 0.5 inch on each side, 1 inch total) providing a much comfortable and commanding riding position.

This one is old setup for reference:

He's routed the stock clutch cable without any issue. But I'm facing issue with brake hose and accelerator cables. The Brake hose and accelerator cables are re-routed between the right fork pipe and right fairing which cause them to rub badly against the right fairing when I turn the handle to right. Also the brake hose seems to be under lot of tension when I lock my handle.
Can someone who has undergone this mode / @Pavithranmt please confirm your setup or share some clear pictures please. How are the above cables routed in your case?
Many thanks in advance
New Apache clipons are considerably taller ( ~2 inch ) and wider ( 1 inch on each side, ~2 inch total) providing a much comfortable and commanding riding position. Measurements are done by measurement tape. I've measured by taking holding clamp as reference. Stock clipons taper down after the clamp while Apache ones are straight, so correct way to measure is to take the ground as reference. That way the height difference between Apache clipon grips and stock clipon grips is much more than 2 inch.
I'm 6 feet 1.5 inches tall and old setup was not comfortable for me especially on long rides, slow traffic, broken roads and off roads.
Next one is old setup for cable routing reference:

Re: Honda CBR 250R
Way too much!! Order one from abroad; even with shipping cost & customs it will not exceed 4K. The one I'm talking about is GalferOriginally posted by princesirohi View PostI want steel braided brake lines for my CBR250 ABS 2011 model, HEL is saying 21,000 rupees.
Does anybody know a cheaper option?

Re: Honda CBR 250R
As sir said, go for Amaron. I am using the same for my CBR and way better than Exide. You can either stick to stock 6Ah APBTZ7L or the 9Ah one.Originally posted by pushu097 View Post
Any ideas which one is better? Amaron or Exide?
Cheers!

Re: Honda CBR 250R
Amaron is way better than other makes. You can also try to fit in a Amaron 9AH with a little alteration to mounting place....Originally posted by pushu097 View PostTurns out that the battery is weak.
Thinking of shifting to Amaron 7ah one.

Re: Honda CBR 250R
Turns out that the battery is weak.Originally posted by gurudevan View PostYou would need to diagnose where the issue is coming from ? is it just that the battery is getting weak or there is some leakage in electrical circuit.
For battery health, if you have multimeter, you can do a quick check . if you dont have one , i would suggest you to keep one and it doesn't cost much.
1. Connect the multimeter red to positive terminal of battery and the black to negative . Check the voltage and if it is higher than 12.4/12.3 V , you battery should be good. If it less than 12.2 v then battery is starting to get bad and anything below 12 Vis a dead battery
2. Start the engine and the voltage should reach around 13 ( +/- 0.4) . It can even reach 14 if you rev the engine hard. If this works, then the charging system seems to be good.
3. Crank the engine and if the battery does not regain the voltage after cranking higher than 12.4V, the battery is starting is not able to retain charge and need a replacement.
If you have a good battery, then there could be current leakage from faulty component. I had a issue where the fan relay failed and the fan was running even after the ignition is off. The fan relay failure is not very rare
If you are not able to conclude then you might have to take a motorcycle electrician
Checked the voltage while keeping the engine on... shows 14.2 volts. So the charging system is working fine.
Turned on the indicators and headlights simultaneously and the voltage dropped to 11.6 and then jumped back to 12.2 ish. This shows that the battery is weak.
Going for a replacement today. I have installed the exide XLTZ9 on the bike which is an upsize from the stock size. The battery is still in pro-rata warranty so I should get a good discount on the replacement battery.
In my experience exide batteries now a days do not last much. Thinking of shifting to Amaron 7ah one.
Any ideas which one is better? Amaron or Exide?
