      • r13nick, Tks for bottom of my heart to have set the expectation I'm sure this will aid lot of people to determine if their C250R is behaving as expected. Tks

              Wow. Brilliant job done mate. Loved how you innovate and made arrangement for the camera mounting. Will help many of us here including me looking for suggestions on the same
              The sound of the bike after it crossed the Rev Limiter Line was little worrying though

                • Hello CBRians,

                  I was almost ready to book the CBR and thanks to couple of folks here who have shown confidence to go ahead and buy. But going by the majority of quality issues that this bike has come with, I am now thinking twice if I need to book one. My main worry is "continuous worry" on what might go wrong after purchase. I am not sure if quality has been taken care in the recent batches of vehicles? Can anyone update on this please? My heart says "BUY" but my mind says "NO". I am in a confused state now and looking for other alternatives. Can go for the BULL but I do not have patience to wait for an year to get a CL350 or 500. Way too much waiting period.

                  Cheers

                    • 6th Oct'11 is the D-Day

                      Whoppi!! 6th Oct'11 is the D-Day. I'm getting my CBR on the 6th.

                      Feels like the days are not passing by.

                      The count down begins for me. 3 days left.

                        If you seriously are looking for suggestions/feedback on the CBR250r, read the complete thread, there is not much left to say except enjoying the ride . If you dont have the patience( which I suggest you built, if you dont have) get any other bike which you think has no issue at all. My personal experience, there are no quality issue/ issues with the bike, its just like any other bike with a lot more power and edge!!
                        Oh if you do get to ride your bull, please remember you will always be running behind my horse (Fun intended, to be taken lightly)

                          Hey rmchhetri,

                          I do have patience but not like 12 months waiting period. Thanks for your valuable feedback here. I have read through the complete thread and hence this apprehension. If I would not have come across this thread, I would have been riding the horse now :-)

                          Cheers

                            1st deside which one you want and whats your need.

                            about quality issue i also dont have any problem in my bike.
                            there are some issue in every bike even on bull too.
                            the main problem is parts not avelable but day by day HMSI is improving and we are getting things now.

                              Thanks Rahul. This helps. I am basically looking for a tourer and a comfortable city bike.
