    used cbr250r abs or new rtr180abs or fz25.....

    I need a reliable tourer within 1.5 lakhs...

    Please suggest me what makes sense in today's scenario... And I am not an expert...

    1. Used cbr250r abs
    2. New Apache RTR 180 abs
    3. New Fz25..

    Is cbr as reliable as new between used 30k and 40k kilometres.

    I already have a Bajaj ride with me for 10+ years. Shall I give another try with dominar...

    Please give your valuable comments...😁😁

    There is no guarantee with a pre-owned motorcycle. You might get lucky or not!

    If you have had a good experience with your Bajaj, then the Dominar

    If not, then the FZ25

    The Apache 200 over the 180
    Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!

      My vote goes for the dominar. The new lots should have less niggles and the warranty would be helpful. If you have the cash, get the 400.

      Some guys have had luck with used CBR 250. But be advised, at 40k kms, you might need shims replaced, or stator coil change. All this costs just ₹4-5k, so buy one if you have the time to check it out thoroughly.

          My mind always go with cbr250... Because I read and watched their positive response from their owners...

          Even all the riders who replies to this thread, own cbr250.... Proudly....😁

            My vote goes to the CBR. If you have patience and search, you can get a very good deal with CBR. I had picked up a Nov 2016 model with 5.5k on ODO in July 2017 for 1.1lac (non abs model). Parts for CBR are pretty cheap, hence cheap to maintain.

              CBR250 is a very good bike no doubt but finding spares can pose a problem in coming days.
              A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.

                From the performance and feature factor go with Dominar - ABS + Modern Features (Slipper Clutch, LED, etc).
                From the choice factor go with CBR ABS(Yes ABS only please).

                If you compare CBR ABS with Dominar you probably only miss the Slipper Clutch + 123 more CC. Rest most of things are cosmetics.

                  If you have no hard feelings against Bajaj, go for the dominar 400. The quality is really stand out at that price point and so is the ride quality.
                  I personally wouldn’t not suggest to go for any second hand bike.

                    Thanks for all your valuable inputs...

                    We discussed with friends, and finalize the dominar...

                    No used cbr250 ... I have no luck with anything ... anytime.... 😂
