- Remember the times when there were F1 cars that screamed and whined at high revs? This sound comes pretty close.
1990 Honda CBR250RR MC22
All original, except for the temporarily dismounted muffler, for your entertainment 😊

Technically speaking, from a physics perspective, they could get this same insane 18-19k rpm out of a 400cc these days. So imagine you made it that, but then tacked on two more cylinders for a straight-6, 600cc at 19k RPM. Instead of the usual 120-ish hp out of a 600 4-cyl, we could very well be looking at 150hp out of a 600 6-cyl spinning up to 19k. Not to mention literally double the epic sound insanity of the Honda CBX-1000. Seriously, go download a clip of a CBX1000 with a 6-1 exhaust, then put it in Audacity and pitch it up one octave. That's it. That's your CBX-600.
My man, you are on to something 🤩I love this way of thinking!
This is the peak of fun, I mean you can rev this thing with your heart out without worrying about speed or anything. ❤
Exactly! I'm not even over the speed limit at the end 😂
@@LucHeijnen Man,...I am soo jealous (in a good way!!).👌😂
I just got one of these a week ago!! I absolutely love it!
@@LucHeijnen better fun the a 1000cc
I’m a former RVF400 owner and my brother had the cbr 250 20 years ago
These small little pocketbikes are so underrated, love my '91 Suzuki 400cc with a rev. limiter set at 16500k rpm.
Indeed they are. They are so much more fun than bigger bikes. I also have a RVF400 and a CB-1 and I wouldn't want more. (except for maybe a CBR400RR) 😁
Wow, 1.65 million RPM is quite impressive.
@@miljororforsprakpartiet290lmao indeed
I had one of these as my first bike in 1997 (learner legal in New Zealand). Any time you stopped at or left traffic lights, you sound like a MotoGP rider. So agile as well - absolutely awesome machines.
How did you find it as a learner bike? I’m looking at one at the moment but sceptical on how touchy it might be including throttle, clutch etc how did you find reliability? Looking at one with 33xxx kms. Also a kiwi here.
@@nickwinter3211 They make great beginner bikes, low to the ground, light and not too much power. Just remember there's no ABS and you do have to deal with carbs which need an overhaul every couple of years whether you ride often or not. If you can afford to have a good mechanic to maintain the bike for you I'd say go for it.
I love that this is in the netherlands, thought they were impossible to find in europe, as a dutchie I feel my love for small bore 4 cylinder is represented
Very rare, but not impossible. I believe there are about 5 of these in the Netherlands!
I wish these ‘90s 4 cylinder bikes were sold in the US market. They’re practically collectors items here
It's the same over here. Extremely rare, even rarer than the VFR400R/RVF400R.
how much are they over there just curious as you can get them for like 5k AUD is aus
@@scoobyi it kind of depends, because they rarely go on sale and people bid on them but I haven’t seen anything sold beyond 4-6k USD. You could import one from Japan or Australia since that’s where they were mostly sold. But that alone costs around 9-10k USD
@@scoobyi I am guessing about triple that price. Hard to tell though because I haven't seen one for sale in ages.
This is just ridiculously awesome!
needed this more than i knew
Same
I have one.fun fun fun
Nice. Been looking for one of these in Europe for a while and you almost never see one for sale. Prices for the few that exist are not however up in the stratosphere like the NSR250 yet.
Yes, fortunately they are about half the price of an NSR250R. I was very lucky to find this one in good shape in my neighborhood :)
Same as an f1 car brilliant
You can get these in aus for actually cheap cause they were sold here. This might be my first bike :)
Lucky you! All the best stuff comes from Japan and Australia. I envy you!
@@LucHeijnen There was a reason though. Learner permits were limited to 250cc. Never rose one of these 4strokes and am impressed. Still miss my old 1985 RG250. Reckon it’d be a great side by side run.
Areto, pls check out Fortnine channel on YT on first bikes. Awesome channel with some of the the most thoughtful content. Personally, I’d leave these for a spare or second bike on the road. If I were to get my lic again I’d probably look at some of the larger cc’d bikes they allow. Comfort and weight on the road. A light 250cc with fairing, you will end up in a lane you didn’t want to on windy days. Westgate brindle I moved 3lanes and had little choice in it. Rides on this thing will take a toll on your bod and time on the bike. Ie. less fun on the regular. If it’s just for an occasional ride, I’d get one and juice it up a bit 👍

@@skoll_2024 I ride a lot on mine. I've even taken it around Scotland and all the to Italy through various weather conditions and I haven't experienced any discomfort from the wind or the riding position at all. I do think I ride it differently than when I just got the bike. I guess you just adapt your posture to it over the years? 😅
For riding my favourite bike u deserve a sub mate
Thank you!
Hehe i wana see more man loved it 😂😎
Nice sounds
Superb sound like the yamaha r6
This sounds nothing close to an R6 🤔 If it were that easy to get a motorcycle that sounds like a formula 1 car, I would've gotten 10 R6's 😂
@@LucHeijnen 😂😂😂😂
Hey mate, first off, what a bike. Secondly, do you find any issues clutchless shifting these bad boys?
Thanks mate. This is probably the easiest bike to clutchless shift, because of the close ratio gearbox and small power transitions. It's very addictive 😍
@@LucHeijnen awesome, I'll have to start doing the same to mine. Thanks for the reply. I'll be uploading videos this week. Just made a channel for the bike, only have one short up @cactusmotoscape
And some people say these are beginners bike 🏍… yea right!
Well yeah, if you keep them under 10k RPM, they might be 😂
Those are the most practical mirrors..
gullarm🚀
The ultimate 250cc 4 cylinder!🔥🚀
She sounds way better without the muffler.....
I did the 250th like
what does it feels like to have 250 angry little hamster between your legs?
Hahah 😂 It sounds like you're going 250 km/h, but you're actually going just half of that. And it feels like you're riding on a smooth sewing machine on steroids 😁
@@LucHeijnen perfect description ! haha
how can i buy one of these in south eastern Europe??
Get lucky
Hey man, I might be getting a 1989 cbr250r mc19, I was wondering if you've had many mechanical issues with this bike given that it's old and high rpm?
Also do you recommend for an everyday ride?
Honda is well known for making indestructible engines. As long as you regularly do oil changes with premium oil and check the valve clearances according to the manual, you shouldn't have to worry. I've seen these engines do over 100.000 km's without a problem!
I am 1,76 m tall and as a daily rider, I have no problems with this bike either. 100 km commutes are still very manageable despite the small size of this wonderful bike!
@@LucHeijnen Thanks man! Your response is much appreciated!
i have one with 100000+kms, commute daily on it. its so fun, reliable ( other than usual wear items, easy stuff ) and nothings sounds like it on the road! and for 250s.. pretty quick too. check my other channel "Davidsfix - mc22" ive got some mc22 stuff there too :)
Mine is for sale. Regular oil change,20,000rpm no problem. HRC quality in the late 80s doesn't compare
IS THIS IN EUROPE??
Yes, I live in the Netherlands!
Luc Heijnen damn this babyblade is so rare, what price range it is in Europe?
@@rayzhang6435 Yes they are, I am very lucky to have found one here, as this isn't an opportunity you'll get more often in your life 😅. Rumours say there are just a few more in the Netherlands. I got this one for €6000 in mechanically and cosmetically decent state with 22.000 km. In the UK, I saw them go for about £8000 in the same or even worse state, so I think I've bought quite the bargain. I have now tried to get the bike back to original showroom state as far as possible, and think it will now be in that same price range. 😊
You could check out my instagram page @LucHeijnen if you'd like to see some photos of the bike!
@@LucHeijnen wow, got mine for $2700 with 100000km in NZ. runs great!
@@daviddias3471 Great buy, They are really Indestructible 👌
