Picture's are good enough mate! Thanks a lot, I've spoken to my fabricator and he told that it can be done for 1k with a white coat of paint. I was thinking of raising the height a bit more. I had the paddock stand for my R15 V1 and it raised the bike more high which also looked good..Originally posted by samarth14feb View Post

At the time of delivery the radiator fins were ok i double checked them but after 2 days and 200km when i looked at the radiator today morning found 10 to 12 fins are bend.I guess stone chips are culprit,tried to straighten them up with a pin and found how easily they can be bend with almost no effort.Bend fins are almost straight but not like new anymore.I heard that radiator costs 4000+ INR can this fin assembly be replaced or restored when most of the fins are bend or it comes as a whole with radiator.Please suggest some remedy for the fins so easily bend.Is it issue with all liquid cooled machine or cbr rad fins are too weak?..HISTORY IS NOT ABOUT WHO IS RIGHT BUT ABOUT WHO WRITES IT.......Comment

New Owner CBR250R Tri-Color
Hello guys
I got my Bike Tricolor Non-ABS delivered yesterday.
Would like to catch up with you guys at G2G.
I went through the ownership thread before I got my bike.
Thanks for immense feedback.
Ciao
EDIT:- I have a query though. If I am not wrong I seem to recollect reading owner manual where they had mentioned keeping the bike ON/engine running at static/signal for 1 minute leads to damage of Cat-Con. so if we keep our bike running at static to say warm up for more than a minute
everyday will it be a problem?Last edited by Galactus.prime; 07-01-2012, 12:17 PM.Comment

The manual says, keeping the engine idling for too long is bad for the cat converter, doesn't mean 1 min. 1 min is almost essential I'd say, don't switch off engine if a signal has less than 60 secs on the clock, constant restarting is more harmful for the engine and the environment. And besides, the right way to check oil levels on this bike, would be to start the bike, keep it on idling for 3-4 mins, switch engine off, let it rest for 3 mins and then check gauge (according to the cbr250r manual).Originally posted by Galactus.prime View Post
So basically a one min warm up is absolutely no prob IMO. I'd say avoid idling for over 4-5 mins, that's going to cause unnecessary heat gen and strain cat converter.

It is not unusual for the radiator fins to be bent. I've had the bike for 3months and around 5~10% is bent, it is mostly due to road dirt and all. There are radiator guards available online but seem to be a bit expensive. I remember a post in which the member had made a radiator guard by himself. Nothing to worry about, keep riding until the heat guage only shows 3 bars!Originally posted by BAMBI143 View Post

Firstly, a radiator radiates heat out drawing temperature from the cylinder to a place that is exposed to heat conducting surface, the bigger the surface area, the better the cooling (so the weak fins, its design not substandard equipment).Originally posted by prithviq8 View PostIt is not unusual for the radiator fins to be bent.

Now in regards to dirt/pebbles hitting the radiator, its the only design weakness I see in the CBR, especially on Indian road conditions. However, rectifying it with a home made guard is tricky, since you dont want to block fresh air from hitting the radiator (fresh air to radiator is necessary to keep engine temp at control, especially with the 10-30 grade oil they use and 45 degree C indian summers). A more apt thing would be to design a tyre mudguard, most designs would spoil the overall linear design of the bike though.

Need your help guys..
Bought my bike in May..due to work load just rode 650 odd kms on my bike..1st servicing done with just 490 kms on 5/6/12.
Its been raining quite a bit here in Odisha.My bike was kept well covered except for a little exposure at the rear end.Today I discovered rust in the chain and rear disc.Just wanted to know that whether the problem is with all cbr250s.
I have an Yamaha enticer almost 10 years but never ever seen a trace of rust in chain or sprocket.I am extremely sad after discovering this as I never expected this to come from a bike costing me nearly 2 lacs.HONDA CB250R C-ABS Triple Heron
