  • It would be very helpful for prospective buyers if the present owners of this bike can give an overall satisfaction rating on 10 considering all the positives and negatives...it would give an idea as to how much the experience is worth paying for :-)


    and @ kanthf1
    very well said!

        • Guys wish me luck. Today finally managed to give my CBR for the engine noise problem in the service centre. Just hope they remedy the problem without creating new ones....keeping my fingers crossed

          It took a wait of almost 20 days, many many phone calls to SVC, and couple of mails to Honda to get the part....

          Delivery its tomorrow afternoon.....waiting....

            similar stuff is available at pratul honda (somajiguda, hyd)

            engine cowl ( CF)
            side panels ( one with 250r sticker)
            side panels (matt finish panels)

            but the quality aint that good. looks similar to what they have in side panels of r15 v2.0..
            however not expensive. can be tried.

                gud luck buddy. My Ceeber has been with the ASC for engine noise and shims issue for over a week and they still have not been able to operate on the bike because of lack of spares . yesterday wrote a mail to honda customer care. I hope that within this coming week i ll be able to ride my CBR again.

                • cbr250r issue

                  so.. ive recently started using my cbr250r and ive noticed that even if i dont ride it hard(under 7k rpm all the time) it gets heated and the fan turns on in about 15kms if im riding in medium traffic. the coolant temperature on the dial is exactly in the centre. so i wanted to ask if this is normal?

                  • SOoooon Going to be a owner ....Fingers crossed..

                    @abhinavcrytek good luck buddy hope the problem is solved ASAP.

                    Well the 2013 cbr250 looks much better now than the original not only the new color schemes like repsol edition, white color ...and black looks really amazing.

                    Another thing wanted to share with you guys.. I became a member of this forum just because of the CBR250 even though I dont own this one right now ... but now just got my first job and have made my mind to book the new 2013 cbr as soon as the booking opens.. so soon going to join the cbr family ...

                          a new lockset is around 10k+ if im not mistaken so im kindof confused as to what im supposed to do.
                          OMG 10k for a new lock set

                          • Hey Ameya, its absolutely normal unless temperature bar crosses 3bars. In traffic since there is not much movement air doesnt fully cool d radiator n hence fan starts up. Happy riding.

                                Yes i asked the ASC about this hefty price tag and they said it has something to do with the sensors. Im guessing that a few sensors will also have to be replaced incase you are to change your lockset. Its just a guess because i have not seen the bikes electrical system diagram yet.
