    re: 2013 Honda CBR250R Launched in India : xBhp News

    I almost booked one. Frustration caused it. Because I have no bike right now. But safely avoided the showroom.

    In my opinion, this CBR250R is nearing its end of product cycle. Usually the company releases the best color schemes when its time to wrap up. Maybe the CBR will now have a new version. With new styling.

          I booked the older red version of the CBR 250R on June 12th. But I recieved news from the dealer that all batches from June 20th will be new color schemes only. I also saw the manager's mail, in which it was stated that the new CBR may get MRF tyres too along with the Contis, and the ECU has been remapped. Some minor cosmetic changes are also due but I did not have enough time to go through them. There is a 6k raise in the bike's OTR price.

          Guys comparing the Duke 390 with the CBR. Only thing that is common is their price. Both of them appeals to very different types of riders. I am getting mine by July 15th and I honestly did not have second thoughts after the launch of KTM Duke 390.
          It is the rider than the ride!

            Best wishes, in advance, for getting one!!
            ECU remapping sounds promising but provided Honda stay true, how are they going to communicate this to laymen? Cosmetic changes... hmmmm.. lets wait & see.
            Make sure you post your views on these....

              hmm.lots of orange for repsol.only the standard makes sense now.abs cbr was and is more so now overpriced.400cbr is going to be above 3to 3.5 lac sure.even if a 300cc model comes they have to price it very aggressively now that duke with abs is here.sad honda is aping hero motors.

              o.tn the other hand we have the true racing company yamaha with products like ray z catering to racing enthusiasts.atleast honda better in this aspect.

                    Honda are typically indifferent to market trends. Not that they dont have the resources. Any other manufacturer would have already had a twin-cylinder 30-40 bhp version served up hot and fresh. But as far as Honda cares it like they're the only bike available. Take it or leave it

                      Can anyone tell if the older colors will still be available at least a few months more ?

                              News colors are only looking good at showrooms not for road. Obvious Repsol will look crazy for few months but not for long run. These colors are really not complete (at least red and black) compared to previous colors.

                                What exactly are you looking for, bro?? Looking good is an individual opinion, if they stop the previous colors, you just have to live with it.
