      oooops!! So there is no fuel tap for FI!! Sorry.. Dint know that as not used any FI till date.. (would be cool if someone can explain the logic behind it.. Ofcourse if not going too much OT..)
      will have to keep it filled.. Or.. Dhakka maro..between the road..

          The FI system uses a pump to inject the fuel forcibly with some pressure. Hence the pump always needs to be wet with fuel to prevent any cavitation issues. If the pump is run dry without fuel it may hamper the pump. Hence fuel taps are avoided to prevent such scenarios. Hence it is always advised not to completely dry your bike before refueling, to avoid any air entering the pump. Hope you might have got the point why the tap is missing in any FI bikes!

            Could you please confirm?? Is it from India only or outside??
            I'm wondering why is it like that, if its in India.
            Out of india i guess. Look at the bike/scooter (or watever) behind the CBR!

                Below is the apt reply, but just that the fuel pump is IMMERSED in the fuel tank to remain cool (due to the motor running inside the fuel pump to pump the fuel) & hence has always to remain under the fuel most of the time. A heated pump can ignite the fuel as well & needless to say the consequence

                  No comments on power and pick up now. Yet to push it hard. Great suspension, brakes, headlights. I was the first one in delhi to get the bike. Got a free chocolate. They served limca in ultra small glasses. They served me dhokla, sweets, potatochips...

                  I would like to conclude by saying that its VFM
                  Mail2vasant congrats on being the 1st to get yhe cbr, enjoy the bike and ride safely.

                    This doesnt look like India if you look into the back ground behind the black CBR there is another white bike on display which in not on sale in India.

                        the CBR250R in india comes with Continental ContiGO! tyres.

                        the tyres in the pic are RoadRunners.

                        plus the honda scooter in the background kinda gives away the fact
                        that it's not india.

                        Thats true guys...
                        I posted the pic from Net....
                        Saw that this particular pic was not posted in this thread as of now
                        If I go for the CBR, I'd surely give silver as 1st preference

                        • Oops!! I forgot to notice the scooter, Thai text in the background, Saree guard and the number plate thing.
                          Noticed only the tyre the first time I saw the pic. My bad.
                          Thanks!

                              Thank You very much Youngking & Aargee.. very well explained..

                              I see so many people taking deliveries of the CBR but only two on xbhp till now?? Or are you guys so excited that you forgot this thread after getting your hands on it..

                              I was 10th when i booked and now i am 7th..(three cancellations.. so lucky i am ) and the first two delivery bikes are being delivered today.. so i am 5th then.. Still the dealer has no idea when he would be getting my baby..
                              You gotta risk it.. to get da biscuit !!!

                                Thai text visible in the background I guess. Not Sure.
