  • My excitement has plummeted after hearing all the news about quality of parts on the CBR units which have been delivered. I hope Honda fixes these quality issues in the bikes being delivered.
    2011 - CBR250R ABS.

    • I am canceling mine as well, its ninja 250r or any higher cc from Yamaha.

      Would never go for Honda again and neither recommend it.

        • I thought of booking after a test ride. But, all these issues makes me think "Should i book" I think CBR 250R will be there only in my dream and in my desktop wallpaper

          It will be better if some other manufacturer, probably Yamaha, launch a 250cc and make Honda feel the heat

            @ usman_imazz: Bro, it would be great if you could post your bike's pic, where the fairing paint has disappeared, just for our idea.

            @ vikyk: I think most Ninja owners are satisfied of their bikes. Although, we hope they post here...
            bro have already posted pic along with my post please check a few pages back. And even am going to probiking mostly 2morrow to check out ninja 250 and inquire about the delivery period for the green colour

                Do a thorough PDI and don't accept the bike if you are not satisfied.

                    Arjun mate,
                    If Dealer is your brother then Why do you require to book a bike and what's point in booking a bike and getting in after 1 year .

                    It like I can say , Hey guys i have booked R1 today and delayed the delivery till Jan 2014 ,If any other Japs superbike is released via CKD/SKD before that then I will cancel my booking and save a fortune ,Smart move from my side.

                      That sounds really good, a positive feel indeed. Now everything depends on tomorrow's visit to bajaj probiking. Hope a bike will be there for display, as some days back, it was not.

                      If i am getting it right, it means for a single back view mirror we will have pay twice or more than any xyz 150-250 cc bike?

                      I am going to ask them if they have any other color available like blue or red or can get it on special request. I dnt like green and black is too common.

                      • I think if they have one plant down south, all the quality issues will be addressed.

                          Well said Swift, I was eagerly waiting for the test ride, but the excitement has died down, may go to test ride R15 after hearing all this.

                          • Saw one parked outside a college today. This was the first time I was seeing the bike. Walking by had a glance and was amused how someone wanted to modify his FZ into a R15 and then my eyes bagan to open up. MAN I was blown off by what I saw WOW what a site. This looked totally beyond what I saw in pics. Pics cant do justice to something like this. You need to see it in flesh. I remember I felt very good when I saw FZ16 and P220 in flesh but this was totally amazing. For this money this has to be the bike. This was in black silver combo.

                            I did not know that deliveries have starter . Need to book one soon even if it means taking it out only on weekends for some highway fun
