- So these are things which I don't like in my bike.
Its bit difficult to come up with a long list of things that I dont like in my bike. I always love my bike. But these are the few things which I specifically faced from my bike.
So here, I am suggesting two people to do the same Video.

its still looking like new..that proves how much you love ur bike..
you all prolly dont care at all but does anyone know of a method to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb lost my password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Orlando Augustine Instablaster :)
@Forrest Walker I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out now.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Forrest Walker it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you really help me out !
@Orlando Augustine Glad I could help =)
Thnx for diretly jumping to the points without starting with lots of drills n stories like others do.. Tsym bro😊
:)
I have a all black CBR 250r, damn your full red one is very pretty
Thank you :)
I only saw the maroon red/silver color when I bought my first bike so I went with black cbr with red details on wheels and grip tank. I love this bike man, driven 31800km since I bought November 2014
Will find upload a pic and link here, mine is also beautiful
+Strell postimg.org/image/99h0asq61/ here is pic of my cbr - I no longer have the LeoVince exhaust, but a bigger one that works better with the engine. and the windshield is black touring now, not the red one (the red windshield was mistake)
Awesome man. You have done some nice graphical mods on the bike. I really loved the bike. I always love to hear the sound of Akra than a LV. Unfortunately there are no stock here in Bangalore for CBR Akrapovic.
No BS, straight to the point, thanks for saving time 👍
1) tbh the low end torque gives you more smoothness in low gear looking at the weight of the bike. This comfort you won't find in the shitty ktms although the Ninja rules.
2) I have a 2016 model and it does have stickers '250R' on the pillion seat panel and new graphics
3) The mirror is tight but it helps at high speed as it doesn't move.
things I hate about :
1) Contigo tyres are all fucked up
2) parts are expensive and unavailable in the side stand...lol
3) it's not meant for extreme cornering.
4) it's over the budget and the sole reason it lost the market to ktms
things I love abt CBR :
1) Powerful ABS brakes thus ensuring safety.
2) Seating position is very good for long rides.
3) smoothness and stability even at top speed.
4) CBR holds a different status in the market. Only boys with class own them unlike the ktms..lol
I wish the 250RR was launched in India. it's the best 250cc bike in the world with almost 40bhp.
So true..
Hatred towards ktm is way too high within you
@@slimshady30 the only true rc is 390
250rr its already 40bhp now
Sir, better I will not go for buy new ktm, suzuki bike, second hand Honda cbr will best option 👍
That pebble sound your complaining happens. I just figured it out through your video😃 thank you so much
thank you for making this video😊
You are welcome :)
Your bike is shining beautiful. Great video mate, you made it up to the point and short. So anyone looking at a CBR would definitely find this useful. And thanks for suggesting me, hopefully would be able to do a similar video soon.
Thank you :). I gave him a chain lube and bath yesterday. I always want to see him shiny :D
Your bike is in very good condition .. Take care ..Happy riding ..
these are the same issues that even I experienced in my 250R. but I love it more than any other bike..
bro you had great job!! ur bike is awesome
Ak Vans : Thanks:)
I am looking for buying this bike in 2024 is it still worth it(looking overall like bike parts availability or the service from honda )
I noticed when riding a 2014 model cbr 250r abs model whenever i apply rear brake the front brake also seems to engaged. Suddenlty i felt like im riding a scooter. But when search the newer models from 2015 doesnt seems to have this feature which is an issue for me😁. I dont know if they miss out or anything what is it from your experience? do u face this as same as me and is it fixed for the newer models?
whatever problem ppl say are not technical problem . all are aesthetic and functional . this bike is gem in technical part. i believe no other manufacturer can be at par with this one . my wheels clocked 25k still the performance is as new pack .
the bike starts with single touch of the button in any weather . handling is utmost stable even at 140 kmph (though keeping to that in Indian road is not advisable and possible) with near zero vibration. low end torque is not good hence city traffic maneuvering sometimes needs extra skill but man once u start pulling from 50 kmph you know the money u spent is worth every penny and every second till u reach 150 kmph. the only problem i faced when decelerating from high or medium speed to low speed, press the clutch with throttle closed the engines shut itself down (not always). if the throttle is intermittently opened then this problem does not arise. this seems to be general issue with cbr 250 r as seen over the internet. Can anyone throw some light on it?
Debesh Das did you solve the problem? Will the same thing happen if you downshift as well when you slow down. Regarding the side stand cant it be modified to reduce the lean angle.
I never had that issue with Mine..already done 22k..but i have not taken to more than 100kmph
My CBR clocked 68k and it's still smooth.
@@leonidjoseph5483 the problem is not solved . If shown to service they say need to open and check. Side stand can be modified. But i never felt the need.
@@doptimist2087 now mine is 46k. Had a change of tappet shims. Spare parts availability sucks. This made this a fade away gem.
Hey man great video. Can you tell are there any issues with the fuel pump of the bike in the long run ?
Thanks. I havnt faced any issues until now. And havnt heard of a common fuel pump issue.
Did you have any problem with the gear shifts?
is it a good idea to laminate fairings of cbr 250r for scratches ?
Bro any idea if 2012 model had any major issues ?
Same Pinch Bro...I Have Red One Too :)
Your keychain is nice strell
Omg, thx bro for telling me that weird noise from the engine was actually a piece of rocks stuck in the mud guard!!!!
Bro should i buy a used cbr250r 2012 model driven 30k km in 2019 for 50000 rs? Is the deal worth it? Or should i go for a new gixxer sf?
Sir whether 2nd hand 2011 model is good..?should I buy this....?
Hey brother, if I will go for 2nd hand CBR 250?? What are the option I need to check and plz differentiate the ABS and Non ABS verson
hi strell bro, which service centre for cbr250r (2015 registered) in Bangalore you recommend for me to service my bike?
I also own CBR 250R and I totally agree with your points
infact i love the conti go tyres dude they literally stick to the ground n make it easy to cut Along the traffic
No, contis are shit. Absolutely zero wet grip. Switch them out for pirelli sport demons, best tyres for this bike.
I got ABS along with combi breaks equipped so saying but i really had a good experience on them
I know people who has used contis for 40k km. It would have been like a parachute by then :). The broad tyres give more balance. But its shit for rains. ABS can only save your ass at that point. I do a lot of rain rides. Hence I changed it to Michelin.
Sujay Jadhav those tyres are not good during sharp turns...
Well wait for the rain. Once out of hospital, come straight here and share your experience.
Bro is the seat height of this bike same as the splendor because in splendor the seat height is 785 but in this 784 so will the cbr be lesser in height or same
My bike's RPM meter is not working, so do I have to change my instrument cluster or it can be fix?
Hi Strell, pls suggest me which bike should I buy...em really confused between these three
Honda cbr250 ,KTM RC 200 , Mahindra MOJO
what's ur opinion??
First of all I will suggest you to take a test drive on all the three bikes and see which one you are liking.
And here are the reasons why you should go for each of these vehicles and their cons
CBR250R Pros
-Good tourter
-Ultimate comfort and reliable product from Honda with a very refined engine
Cons
-Not much impressive low end torque
-Old design. Made in 2011
RC200 Pro
-Perfect entry level track bikes
Cons
-Not much reliable product because of product quality issues.(Not the engine. but the parts)
Mojo Pro
-An all rounder bike with City riding, highway and off road capabilities
Cons
Nothing heard as of now.
Hi, even i have CBR250R, go for RC200 for best pickup and tech among these but backbone strainer, go for CBR if you are concerned about after sales service and and good top speed, Mojo sounds best and got good power except service network.
Hi Strell,
Planing to buy cbr 250, I will be using it for both long and short drives. So just wanted to know the overall performance and how comfortable is it for both rider and pillion riders?
I ride my gf to work every morning and drive in very heavy Bangkok traffic but this bike is perfect for that. on highways this bike is great as well, good acceleration and balance as a first bike. but you must buy with dual ABS, even more important than helmet almost
Hi Tushar, this is an awesome bike for long and short drives. The engine is so refined and you dont feel like the engine getting stressed in high revs. Up to me, this is the most comfortable bike under 300Cc in single cylinder.
Cool!
hey bro.. Interesting videos man.. Even I'm facing the same issue bro about the pebbles making some rattling noises man how did you overcome that problem bro, could you plz share that as even i took my bike to service centre and they were not able to fix the prob as they didnt knw from whre the noise is cmng. plz do share what you did to stop that rattling sound bro.. thanx :)
+Jubin Jestin : Hey nothing I have done except taking it out and throwing away. That's a nasty one to figure out too.
The things u have pointed out are very much minor.i agree with the tyre part but overall it's an awesome product! !!!!!
You forget one thing..
Shorter front mud gaurd allows sand and small stones to hit radiator fince..
I jst wanna install an air filter in my CBR 250, which one is better K&N or BMC
Does riding in muddy road create splash marks on the back seat and the rider?
CBR ❤
Anyone have any issues with wind or 18 wheelers pushing you around 🤔 I feel like it's a pretty light bike and whenever I see a semi truck I get nervous 😓
I face this problem of mirrors hitting other vehicles while filtering through traffic also you spoke about torque , a exhaust change and ecu remap can sort that issue.
You are correct HH. I am glad to know that you are one among the people who uses the mirrors wide open:). But by practice you can master the filtering in this :). I was in search of a full exhaust system for it. But as per the feedback I got from akrapovic exhaust guys is that, there is not much considerable gain out of it(Slip on+ecu remap+filter change). Also its bit costly when compared to the bikes whole price.
+Strell true that , for that reason I'm fabricating my own free flow exhaust, with air filter, piggy back ecu, headwork, petal discs, bigger cams,
Omg. Fantastic man. I saw your tag "Aspiring motovlogger" in your page. Come up with a video about your mods. Thats will be awesome. Looking forward for it.
It looks beautiful
i have the exact same problem with the mirrors on left side, low end torque , if u change the exhaust system , airfilter and air and fuel ratio tuning your bike will be sharp but not too sure on reliability, always keep the stock exhaust as backup.
Howler Honda I tried an eftermarket exhaust... it increasd low end but decreased top end... but It was way too loud... so I changed to stock again.. this bike is perfect as it comes.. :-)
RIDERS GOT TALENT you probably didn't make a pipe that's made with top end in mind, also you need a ecu remap incase of full system change if not that top end won't be able to be utilized, I feel like keeping exhaust for cities and stock for highways.
Howler Honda Thats true mate... I waa about to get it remapped but I was so irritated by the sound that I switched to stock exhaust.... but as I don't ride in city and only use my bike for touring, I never felt that much need of low end... and man..this bike is a gem for touring.
How is the pick up ?? Dude
Wow nice
cool Video. Btw What Average Does Cbr Gives Plz help
Thanks mate. It gives 30kmpl.
+Strell are you sure the top speed is 160kmph because the company tells that it is 135kmph please answer
Company claims 145kmph. But once you ride the bike, you can get to know that you can take it to 160 :) . Thats a personal choice.
Today i did 322 km; filled 9 litres, from reserve and back, top speed was 160
hi should i buy cbr 150r in munbai for 1,46,000 does it worth i m a college student.
exactly! exaust shield is easily scratched
Sujal Shrestha true bro.... but it also saves bike during fall...
bro how many kms does the breakpads lasts...
Brother cbr 250r 1st owner 15500 km driven asking for 1.2lac should I go for it?
Ith eathu year model aan?
Is there any back pain?
Bro...how much oil u fill in ur bike...?In my bike as per owners manual I filled 1400 ml but the oil level not with in the two levels of the indicator window. What I do...?
+John Britto : I have never checked this because I trust my mechanic. I just know that it's more than a liter. I will let you know after asking my mechanic.
Can you please tell me the milage you get on your red little baby.... I too looking for 250R but I'm concerned about milage and service charge...
Also I've heard that the parts are very expensive and don't get availability...
Please reply..
I'm your new subscriber😊
If you are comparing CBR with Bajaj or TVS, then definitely this gives low mileage and cost of maintenance is high. But if you compare it with other premium motorcycles like KTM's and Benelli, the mileage or maintenance is not bad. I am getting a mileage of 30-35kmpl. Maintenance cost is not high. Honda is generally like that. But you can definitely depend on this bike on any conditions. It never give up.Part are not so expensive and its readily available in almost all Honda service centers.
Ok.....
Thank you bro😊
How did you mount the camera to helmit ? HTC RE?

To other bike ....
Hey buddy.. are there any noticable vibrations in ur bike like from the fairings or any other parts while riding.. bcz ihv heard Honda engines are the smoothest and how much does it cost you for a full paid service..? I'm planning to get it soon. pls suggest me..
First thing, there are no vibrations on the bike even at higher speeds like 140kmph. If any screws are loose, then it can cause vibs on fairings. Otherwise absolutely silent and refined bike. Generally services are done at a gap of 6K Km or 6 months of period. It costs an average of 3K per paid service, if you dont have any major issues. Apart from that, a chain lube at a gap of 700Km will cost 200rs. Thats all. Your choice is great. Make sure that you go for ABS version :). Enjoy.
+Strell ya sure mate.. I'll definitely go with abs version. last thing: how does it fair on highways? can it sustain 3digit speeds for a longer time bcz I'll be using it as a touring bike and ihv heard that its good for long distance trips.
It can sustain in 3 digit for longer times. No heating issues or engine troubles. I have ridden continous 100Kms and all on an average of 120Kmph. Its highly classified as a touring bike because of the comfort that you get for long rides. Your shoulders, back and butt will be very happy after a long ride :D
bro could you give comparison on CBR 150 as well as the r15.. which one has an upper edge.?
Pratheep Sivakumar : R15 is a more fun to ride motorcycle. Cbr 150 is again on comfort. R15 tops in top speed and performance
how is the riding positioning of the cbr250? does it produce any back pains after long rides?
Absolutely no. This is the most comfortable bike for long rides. It doesnt give any back pain even after riding for 1000+ km on a single day.
Thanks for the information Bro 👍
U dnt scratch d exhaust shield...other people do it for u 😓 good work bro ...n yeah that pebble thing was useful I'll check that first if something like that hppens to my bike 😁 and both agree Honda needs to revise 250's console now...otherwise the bike is just awsm 😁✌🏼️
Haha. I take care of my bike very much. So I didnt scratched the exhaust shield yet. Very thing happened, when I leave my bike in parking lots :(
Hey man!
I am planning to buy a used bike and one of my friend is willing to sell his Honda CBR 250 2011 model just for 90k which is duly maintained and taken care of.
-I just wanted to ask you if there is any difference between the new CBR250R (which comes with unwanted star shaped decals over it) and the basic CBR250 2011 model?
-If so, which one is better? And, should I go buy the new model or can I safely stick with the 2011 model?
- I need bike for daily home to college commutation? Is CBR250R better than KTM RC200 and Duke200 for this purpose?
Appreciate your help
Hi Ansh,
My first thought on this is that, a second hand bike is always a second hand. Its 5 years old by now. And heard that Honda has fixed few issues related to shim and body vibrations later in 2013. But I am not sure about the technical details of it. Keeping a bike for 10 years from beginning is a great thing. But getting a 5 year old bike and then using it can be a problem for you. If you dont like the stars in the latest bike, you can carefully take away all the side stickers and paster the CBR250R logo alone. That will change the new versions to old one :) . I personally feel that you can go for a new bike, if you can afford it.
Selecting your bike will be your personal choice. I will tell the strong points of each bike below
1. CBR250R
- Very comfortable long rides
- Reliable bike for years
- Pillion comfort is best
- Not impressive low end
2.RC200
- Completely track focused bike.
- Good for city, but not so impressive low end.
3. Duke200
- Good for city
- Very powerful
- But not so reliable
- Not ideal for long journey
- Absolute fun bike.
You can choose the bike based on your preferences :)
Thanks man! This was really helpful. I will surely go for the CBR then.
Happy to help you :)
Ith eath model annennu parayaamo?
What is the full form of HRC
bro tell me engine oil capacity of the bike, engine oil rate and servicing cost plz
1.4L w/o oil filter, 1.6L with engine oil filter & 1.9L when overhauling. 10W30 Engine oil is what Honda supplies & recommends to use for CBR 250R, cost around 550 per liter. A normal service will cost you 2-3K, with engine oil change, air filters.
Hi, did you remove the stickers from the front cowl or is it stock? How about the mileage? Ever checked?
I havnt removed any stickers. Its the stock version. This use to the 'Standard red' till 2015. I am getting 30kmpl in city and 35kmpl on highways. Are you owning one ?? :)
+Strell thanks. The recent variant sport red version is too sporty for me. Yours is the best one i ever seen.
No, actually i am planning to get one. But confused between re himalayan, AS200 and cbr. I have never test drove any of these. My primary aim is touring. What do you suggest? I got few questions, hope you can help me.
1. Is cbr good for a 500 km stretch?
2. I need upright position since leaning bikes ache my back. Is CBR one of those? Since i cant tell from many videos on TH-cam.
3. Are the tail lights LED?
4. ABS is expensive and complicated tech. Can the normal version compared better to Himalayan or pulsar 220 / AS200?
5. How does the clutch feel? Tight or smooth? My hands are very small!
6. Are the electricals DC like on pulsars?
Hi Shijo, I will suggest you to take all the 3 bikes and take out for a full day ride. I am like you and my primary aim is also touring. I generally get back aches from bad postured bikes. But as far as to my knowledge, up right riding position bikes gonna ache your back more than a semi sporty bike. Of all the bikes compared, CBR will be having the most comfortable ride followed by AS200 and then Himalayan.
To answer your questions one by one
1. Is cbr good for a 500 km stretch?
A. Definitely yes. Once you are adjusted with the semi sporty riding position, 500km is a cake walk on this bike.
2. I need upright position since leaning bikes ache my back. Is CBR one of those? Since i cant tell from many videos on TH-cam.
A. Its a matter of getting used to. You need to keep the bike for a day and check with your medical conditions.
3. Are the tail lights LED?
A. Sorry to say they are not, and old school bulbs.
4. ABS is expensive and complicated tech. Can the normal version compared better to Himalayan or pulsar 220 / AS200?
A. Please dont think that ABS is an expensive mod on your bike. Its a necessity for any bike above 200Cc. Himalayan locks its back tyre for all hard braking. CBR's ABS comes from Nissin, which is an already proved ABS system. You can blindly invest on it. People who has bought the non-ABS variants are now regretting for that decision.
5. How does the clutch feel? Tight or smooth? My hands are very small!
A. Under 500cc motorcycles in India, CBR's clutch is the lightest of all. Its very comfortable and you will feel uncomfortable when you switch from CBR to any other bikes.
6. Are the electricals DC like on pulsars?
A. Ya they are.
Hope my answers helped you.
Feel free to contact me for anything related to this bike :)
+Strell my question regarding 4, 5 and 6 missing..
Please click read more on my above comment and read it and let me know :)
hi yours is the first honda 250 I liked ever. It looks very good n beautiful.
how about Mojo? I'm planning to buy it. I mostly prefer tourer bike and also wat is ur opnion on himalayan. thanks
Hi Pavan, Thanks for the comment :). All three bikes you spotted are great for touring with their own strong points. Below listed will be the extra bonus from these bikes, apart from touring capabilities.
CBR 250R => Refined engine among all + Comfortable highway speeding (You will be relaxed even after 140kmph because of its fairing) + ABS option which is considered to be the touch of God for highspeed tourers.
Himalayan => The best off-roader bike in India at the cheap price point. But you wont get the fun of speeding with this bike as compared to the other two
Mojo => Good bike for the city since it has got a good torque. But windblast can be an issue since this doesnt have a wind visor compared to other two.
I will suggest you to test drive all the bikes, atleast for 15-30 mins on it and take a discussion. Many things can vary according to your height/weight/and physique. Please let me know if you need any information specifically.
+Strell thank you so much for the info....I took a test drive of Mojo yesterday and I was amazed lookn at it. I hav to still test himalayan and honda 250. trust me after lookn at your bike I liked it nd wil do a test drive soon. Ill update you again and please do help me in deciding one.
thank you
Sure brother. Ping me in facebook, in case if I miss your notification here.
facebook.com/strellmotovlogs/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel
+Strell sure I will :)
+Strell hmmm after 130 the bike struggles a bit... but I guess my bike is due service... let's see after service, a ecu remap would really help the bike.
Why do you need a side stand indicator when the bike has a safety switch installed? You can't go from N to a forward gear with the stand down (it will stall) and it will stall if the stand drops.
I got your point Roger :) But India Versions of CBR doesnt have that feature. I can move the vehicle with stand on.
wait so the cbr250r is better low end power?
Remembering your bike now in 2020.😍😍😍. I'm going for Gixxer Sf 250, in coming few days. But if cbr was/is still available now, I will definitely go for one.
Vishwas P S hi bro I’m just watching this review to make my mind up by going with sf250
Please do let me know how it turned out for you
@@kirandeep5717 sure bro I'll, actually I'm upgrading my 2017 Suzuki Gixxer Sf 155 to newer 250 SF. By looking at so many videos and review, I can assume that, this one will be one of a fantastic bike...
Vishwas P S yes exactly I rode a 150 cc bike like you and I have been thinking of an upgrade since long . I did take a test drive and felt the engine to be very smooth . Currently in cross roads between the power of a duke or this 😅
But I guess the comfort and low maintenance of the gixxer is something good to look for
Also do let me know the cruising speeds you are getting on an open highway
@@kirandeep5717 Bro I haven't bought yet. Probably in 10-15 days I'll buy. Dukes are all different kind of bikes, they are for pure fun. I have Dominar 400 also, but I use it only for touring. For City riding I use Gixxer. I can't completely utilise Dominar's power in City. But 250 cc has its own advantage. The power is just fine for highways, and in City if you want to have fun, this power will not scare you, the power is just perfect. In a sense, I would definately recommend you to pick Gixxer over Duke. And one more thing, my God, my Gixxer's engine is smoother than my Dominar's. Let me be frank I love Gixxer's engine more than that of Dominar's. Suzuki have limited the speed to 154kmph, so engine life in a long turn would benefit the consumer as a whole. So according to your question, I believe 80-125kmph cruising speed will be good on this bike...😀🙋
Vishwas P S Thank you bro for the detailed reply and yes probably IL also pick up mine in some days . Hoping to do some city and a lot of highway rides . Happy riding
What's the mileage
How much money hav u spend on the bike for maintanence ect after buying ur bike
Two services per year which cost 2-3k and chain lube which costs 200rs in once in 2 months.
Hello to all the CBR 250R owners there, I'm planning on buying a used one which is less than 5yrs old and driven less than 25K KMs. I come across used ones in the price range of 80K to 120K INR. Is that worth buying a second hand CBR 250R? How's the engine performing after 3-5 years? I have been using a classic 500 for five years now and done 30K KMs. So, planning to trade it for a second hand CBR 250R. My main reason for the change is #1-9: Braking #10: Top-end pull. Thank you for all your help in advance :-)
How is the vibrations of cbr 250 on 110 or 120 kph speed ?? Do they feel to hand like dominar or the bike is smooth?
It's way smoother than Dominar at that speed.
Strell awesome.. thn i guess i shud buy a 2018 cbr 250 than the dominar
@@LoveUPes i dont feel that high wind blast though i have did long rides also on cbr250
are their vibration in this bike
why your fuel injector light running for so much timr..??
Its an abs light, goes off after you start riding
Is your bike the ABS or the NOn ABS version. And how mportant do you think ABS is??
For fast bikes like CBR,it is highly recommended to by ABS version.
+Pranay Vaka buy*
As Pranay pointed out, its very important to have ABS. I am riding an ABS version and I have never regretted for opting for ABS. The bike is heavy and can easily have tyre locks on slow speed traffics, when roads has gravel. ABS has worked and saved me in those situations and avoided many places which would have been to a road rage :)
what about the ground clearance of this bike. .. it's just 145mm if I am not mistaken.... it is bad for Indian roads I assume.... hasn't it given u a tough time.... does the underbelly scrap over speed brakers or bad roads?
Sorry for my last reply. That was a mistake. Yes 145 is bit less in India road conditions. With my weight of 68kg, I dont find any issues. But if a person more than 60kg happens to my pillion, then the underbelly gonna scraps for pot holes.
Dude Pour 4-5 drops of coconut oil in ball joint of mirror.. it will work perfectly.
I have upgraded the mirrors :)
hi bro nice video!
i am also planning to buy it. from which showroom did u buy it and where do u give it for service?
I live in Indiranagar, blr.
Any day, its Tansi Honda at Varthur Road.
+Strell what was ur on road for abs? i asked at haiku near domlur, they said around 2.3L
I took it a year back. And it was 2.3L at that time too. Hence I will say, its a good deal.
Just dont pay for bullshits like saree guard or helmet lock. The bike + Side stand + Insurance is enough.
+Strell I will kill d saree guard ...
lol.. sure bro!!
+Strell thanks for the quick reply bro..! will post pix soon!! :D
Nice you bike
Am looking to buy this bike 2018 edition red
I am ok with everything but I need to know abt the bikes mileage
Can u pls tell me abt it ...?
I am getting 30kmpl in city and 33kmpl on highways.
dude is it gud to buy a used cbr 250r ? i mean is there any lack of power ?
No problem if the bike is serviced correctly. Ask for the service bills.
I am not a tourer kind of guy and just want a safe bike with high power to rev the engine a little bit late night in city and on which I always feel confident and with low maintenance cbr 250 abs or rc 200?
and yeah does the abs makes any difference if I am an average rider with average medium speed disk controls do I really need abs?
Between Honda and Bajaj, I always endorse Honda for its durable products. The refinement and feel is good with Honda. When it comes to ABS, its always a life saving equipment. You need not do anything wrong to put you for a hard braking. An idiot cutting a signal can put your life on risk. Always better to buy an ABS version :) Hope this helps.
i actually asked about KTM.and maybe this year rc200 will come with ABS.
All Indian KTM bikes are from Bajaj. The build quality is not great. Infact its bit poor. You can check some crash photos of CBR250R vs RC200. But the fun on RC200 is nice. With an ABS, RC200 is a good choice.
Strell how much will it approximatly cost to change one side of the fareing and is it easily available with exact colour?
Roughly under 3K. The color depends on your service center. If they have stock, they can provide you for earlier models.
How much milage you get on highway. With gentle speed
30..
Hey +Strell .... can u just tell me what mileage wil i get if i rides CBR 250r in around 3000 - 5000 RPM in city in the top gear possible... ?? plz reply man....
Hey Dhanush, I am telling this because I am personally using CBR. Please dont run it under 4.5K in any taller gears. It chokes the engine. If you ride it in 5k rpm, you will get a mileage of 30-32kmpl. Ride safe.
Strell thnks man... Thanks alot...
hi, need your help with the issue that I am facing with my CBR 250R. when bike crosses 50kmph, it feels like I am going over small humps though it's a nice n flat highway. ride feels bumpy. plz help
Hi Sudeep. Identify whether this happens from your front suspension or you back suspension. This can be done by inspecting the handle bars and rider seat. This could be because of suspension oil issue. Either they has been leaked and its drained up or the suspension oil filled for your last service has a different viscosity which it has to be.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback. I will visit service station and get this checked. Otherwise, have you ever heard of this type of issue from any of the CBR 250 owners?
Not from any CBR owners. But from other bikers.
hi, visited the service center; they said there is an issue with the tyre and agreed to replace
Ohk. I hope its a free of cost replacement.

Hi Bro,
What is the real time mileage in various conditions and the tank range you got during long rides?
I get 33 in city and 35 to 38 max in highways. I am now keeping 120 to 130 on highways now and getting 28. Usable tank capacity is 10 liters.
Thank you bro. Keep in touch.. Subscribed.. And do you know about the real time mileage of RC200 as I came across the short review of yours. Thank u in advance bro. Keep the good things going..
Dude....does it have good riding experience when compared to NINJA 300 and RC 390
Sorry brother. CBR250R is secondary when compared to Ninja300. Single cylinder cannot beat a 2 cylinder Kawa. When compared to RC390, CBR250R has more comfort on long rides and stability over the bike. But performance is killing in RC390.
+Strell Dude....shall I go for RC390 or CBR 250...as I'm planning to get a bike.....
Solely your choice man :) . If you are looking for performance, then RC390. If you are looking for comfort and reliability , then CBR250R.
+Strell Thanks bro.....
+Strell , is it possible to get CBR 150 in repsol editions.., and if yes how much it cost... is it worthy to go for CBR 150 or I switch any other bike, waiting for your reply dude...
Hi...iam planning to buy cbr250r...is it worth buying in 2016 as rc200 and duke 390 are in competition?
From what I've heard, there will be a new version of Cbr 250rr later this year, a major changes from today's model, if you want to buy cbr 250r and not in a hurry I think you should wait for the new version
Thanks for the reply hellmekun. I have already talked to Vignesh on this through facebook. Hence I didnt reply here. CBR250RR is coming, but not to India. Its for Indonesia. Hence no point in waiting, here in India.
Just ride and enjoy the moment. That's why we use to ride. U guys just want everything in proper manner. So build a bike by your own. Riding a bike is something different. U can't even feel that on a cars.
3. Most modern bikes dont have a side stand indicator. 4. Grease the mirror ball. 9. My cbr lean on stand wasnt enough
Thanks man :). Points noted ;). My version of CBR mirrors cannot be greased. It's a common issue in India.
Bhai mera same cbr he red wala.bohot scratches agaya sailencer pe
Bro i wanted to know about the service quality from honda, the parts availability, the quality of parts ( all ) & the experience with Honda staff ( workshop n showroom ) ??
Do rply as i wanted a trust worthy bike n brand & a bike with everyday useable factor.
Parts are not easily available. I was going to buy it but then i checked honda service center in my town and they told me that if i buy a cbr i have to ride 40kms to service in other city and online prices are too high.
I would consider checking fhe service center of your area if they can do all work of cbr
@@draig3963Bro here in my localite area the workshop n showroom services r great but i really don't about the parts available of bike thereon.
@@user-rn4hz7fd6k whenever u visit the service center just ask them if they can do full work of cbr ifyes then go for it
@@draig3963 🌝thnx 4 the rply bro👍
CooL Bike
does it jerk in 1st gear at low speed? specially in 1st gear?
It doesnt if one have good clutch-throttle balance. But it can chock under a speed of 7kmph with free clutch.
ok ty... I shall have to do some "clutch-throttle balance" it seems.. I rode a hyosung 250 (cruiser) and a royal enfld 350 and they don't seem to have it so I thought it was only my bike.. thanks for replying. keep vlogging ride strong ride hard
Oh nice :) They are considerably high reving engine than CBR. Wish you happy rides aheah :) Keep riding
Well, that exhaust cover plate is prone to scratches because of the design. On top of it's horrible design, the exhaust is the farthest part from the bike. Lying low, there is very good chance that the plate could scrap on the divider or other vehicles even if you clear the mirror or handlebar.
Bhai mileage Kitne de rahi hi
what's the milage of cbr 250 r can you pls tell
Meera Singh expect 30+
dude what will won if we put a drag race between KTM rc200 vs cbr250
If its a 0-60 run, RC200 will take the lead. But CBR grips in after that speed.
+Strell thanks dude.
Nixon Daniel cbr250r will win.... it goes to 0-100 in less than 7 seconds..u just need a skilled rider and good tires..on stock tires RC may win...!
Oh OK OK OK
Nixon Daniel ;-) ;-)
Except for tire I don't find any issues in this bike
