    Hello Friends !!
    This thread is so informative...Thanks to everyone..
    I need your opinion on something..

    I am buying a used cbr 250r red color STD model

    It has been used for less than 2 years (22 months) and has been ridden for 10000 km...

    The seller offered it for a price of 1Lac ... it is scrathless but the color is a bit dull when compared to new ones..

    can anyone tell me
    1. is this a good deal? YES
    2. does the bike give any problems after 10k km? nothing serious but around 15K... tyre change, 17k coneset & chainset.. and regular chores
    3. What are my initial bike conditioning costs? (teflon coating and all oils and other consumables) dont go for teflon coating.. red is mettalic finish.. polish it genereously and it will be new again
    4. What should i check before buying it ? engine noise , service history , rim bents , any accidents if ever , any physical damage,
    5. what should be the mileage? (i mean optimum mileage for a smoothly used cbr250r) varies from anything between 30-36kmpl... banaglore people report 30ish , in hyd i get constant 34 , folks from mumbai reported 36... take 33 as mean

    Thanks in advance...

            Thanks for the reply

            I negotiated a bit more and finalised the price of 95k...(22 month old cbr250r STD .. 10k KM)

            But on the flip side:

            1. The silencer cover has a lot of scratches and it needs to be replaced.How much will it cost?
            2. There is no user manual(service book) with the bike .. Will it become a problem? The2-year warranty given at the beginning will wnd in a month.. Is it possible to get the extended warranty without the user manual(service book)...
            3. The visor has some scratches and i want to change it.. how much does it cost?
            4. Does the radiator make some noise when the bike is started?

            Thanks in advance

                1. No use, the silver silencer cover gets scratched even on first day of purchase if you ride wih pillion. Same happened with me. My bike is 3 weeks old and it has a few scratches on silencer cover.

                4. Its normal.

                For other points some expert can suggest you.

                  Re: Honda CBR 250R

                  I've booked my CBR, it is a black ABS model.Unfortunately, the dealer (Ananda Honda) doesn't have the ABS model in stock, so he has to order it from the factory and it may take up to 30 days for delivery.

                  When I asked him for discounts, he didn't refuse, but said that we can discuss at the time of final payment. What are the typical discounts that I can expect on the CBR?

                      What price he has quoted to you ? Where do you stay ?

                        Sounds great! Can you check with him how much he shelled out for the paint job and where he got the job done? Do post a pic of the bike if you got one!

                        It costs 900 bucks to replace. Not worth the replacement. You'd do better to get it re-painted or vinyl'd up in carbon! Painting cost - Rs.400

                        2. There is no user manual(service book) with the bike .. Will it become a problem? The2-year warranty given at the beginning will wnd in a month.. Is it possible to get the extended warranty without the user manual(service book)...
                        Yes it will! The user manual is an important piece of ownership document - insist for it.

                        3. The visor has some scratches and i want to change it.. how much does it cost?
                        Again, stickering it up is a better option!

                        4. Does the radiator make some noise when the bike is started?
                        It's not the radiator, it's the ECU doing a self-check.

                        Thanks in advance

                        Did you book the 2013 full black or the 2012 Black+Silver one?
                        Any idea when we can start getting spares for the 2013 colors? (I want to the silver bits in my red/silver combo to full red)

                          1) Painting or Vinyling the silencer cover is better option max expences 200/300 /-

                          2) It is not possible to get extended warranty after first 6 months of the ownership afaik ,though the owners manual is important document it is not a must,but then how you will come to know about the bike`s basic info & maintenance.

                          3) Changing the visor is very labour intensive ,it is not that costly around 500/-

                          4) Radiator do not make any noise it must be the fuel pump priming or starting in laymans language.The noise should stop after few seconds.

                          I think you got a very good deal,just get the owners manual xeroxed from some friend,check all the work carried out by the previous owner at the ASC,get the 24 months servicing done & you are ready for a blast.

                            Wait what? When did the silver heat shield become 900 bucks? It was 4xx with taxes last time i checked a few months ago.
                            Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

                              Last checked on 13th July, Silicon Honda, Bangalore. Dropped the idea of replacing mine and got it painted in Black.
