    Have you cleaned the oil strainer screen located in the right side of crankcase? I believe it is supposed to be cleaned every 12000 kms.

      Engine oil strainer screen should be cleaned for every 12k kms interval. But i don't want to remove crankcase for just strainer screen cleaning. In future while replacing clutch plates i will clean it. I think clogged oil filter causes problems in oil pressure but strainer screen doesn't.

        Whether cbr 250 kit is suitable for cbr 150?
        Is direct fit possible?
        Any drawbacks?

          I noticed my stock front tyre had some minor cracks along the sidewall so got it changed. Now I have MRF Zapper FX1 100/80 on front, this tyre is also used on FZv2
          I feel this tyre has more grip than the stock tyre and braking has also improved. Even on wet roads I feel confident enough to use front brake hard.

            Which tyre you have previously?
            My cbr came with TVS tyres as stock. Currently 15k kms on odo. Front tyre have enough grip, but rear tyre fish tails alot in muddy roads & zero confidence grip on wet roads. I will change my rear tyre to MRF REVZ S at 20k kms.

              I had MRF Zapper FQ previously at the front.

              Today I replaced the rear tyre with Michelin Pilot Street Radial 140/70 - 17 , it's an upsize as the tyre shop didn't have 130/70 available. Bit heavy on the pocket, cost me Rs 5900. The dealer said it is imported tyre, and I saw 'Made in Thailand' written on tyre sidewall.

                This will be an overkill for an always out of breath engine like the one on cbr150.

                  It might seem like an overkill, but to me it doesn't matter much since I mostly use the bike for long rides on highways. The bike is sluggish in the city but at highway it accelerates nicely at high RPMs - sweet DOHC engine. My weight is less than 40 kgs, so I already have an acceleration advantage over most other riders.

                  • Honda cbr availability

                    Hello riders,

                    (Moderators, please move this to the appropriate thread if there is any, I do not know where to post this exactly)

                    Some time before, I heard that Honda had discontinued CBR twins (150R and 250R), and also we were not able to see those in their website.

                    But, yesterday, I went to Honda showroom (Madurai, TN) with my friend to inquire about any launch of CBR updated version. (As he was interested in CBR).

                    The showroom people said that they accept bookings of CBR (that old single head lamp version with STAR stickers) and the OTR price will be Rs. 1.42 L (for 150R). The booking cost is Rs. 5000.


                    The waiting period will be 1 to 1.5 months. I was told that, the bike will be manufactured based on bookings.

                    Is that true?

                    So, the CBRs are not yet discontinued?

                    Will that be BS4 and AHO?

                        Less than 40 kgs on an Honda reminds me of DP26 [emoji111] [emoji111]

                          Yeah, they said that both (150R and 250R) are available and will be delivered within 1 to 1.5 months.

                          But, I doubt whether it will be AHO and BS4 or not.

                            You're inquiring at Madurai?

                              Yes dude. I inquired at Madurai. But, anyway, my friend had booked R15S now.

                                My CBR was drained in water in the recent raining in mumbai. It didn't start so i took it to the nearest service center. they told m charges of vehicle diagnostics around 2500 and and then will tell me which parts are gone and what to be changed. Parts and labor charges extra. Tachometer was showing display but after starting attempts it goes off. anyone knows about this diagnostic charges
                                Happy Riding....:D
