My friend, I think that you're getting worked up and defensive over nothing. All of us I'm sure have been faced with these questions in the last few months, mostly from people who have never ridden a 250R and therefore are armed with less than perfect information.

The comparisons are not an apples to apples case and therefore arguments can only be flawed at best. The CBR's have yet to hit the roads. I think that once they do, the arguments will cease by themselves.

In the meanwhile, I prefer to think that the Gods do not concern themselves with lesser mortals.

It is better to smile and get along with our respective rides....Each of us have our preferences ,and comparisons are meaningless .....

Just my thought.

So a treat is pending from the DIY guru. Let us know when the bike is here. We'll plan a ride over the weekend.

People come up with that wry smile, (which seems to suggest 'what a fool you are') and say arre did you see the Honda 250? It costs only 1.5 Lakh!

Its 25BHP as per the Honda India website.

@Bluevolt Congrats mate

Congratulations mate if this is true --seen 1200 GS & K1600 GTL in flesh & can't imagine how a 1300 would look like

Sorry to disappoint you - I just made that comment up in context of CBR vs Ninja same cc conversation - glad it took some of the attention away!

Thanks anyway, I'll get back on my Ninja!

Btw, the K1300R is available in Mumbai/Bangalore/Del. Bangalore on road is 19 lakhs.

shock absorbers problem

hai all,

i am facing problem with shock absorbers(front),they are making different sound( thud.) even for the slightest bump on the road which i didnt notice anytime before and i found the handle is vibrating (when the rpm falls from 6k to 3k).i dint have any vibrations at higher speeds.recently did the second service and now it reads 6.6k on the odo.

thank u

Regarding the vibration, if it more like a mini tank slap there was a discussion earlier about this being a known issue with 250Rs and typically happens when you drop your speed from 80 kmph (I guess that corresponds to 6 krpm)... a couple of guys had seen that on their bikes, they may be able to help... check out this post by tenhut
