Strell i like cbr 250r. But torque is low. Can I modify bike to get more torque. Wt modifications should I do for cbr to get more torque. I don't want to change exhaust. I like stock sound.
Strell duke 390 full review. Need to know abt vibration compare with dominor 400. Heating test how much degree is comfortable and wt degree duke 390 is heating. Abt built quality is it gud to have a duke 390. And now I'm riding apache rtr 180 2012 old model. Duke 390 vibrations is lesser than apache rtr 180. I like to buy vibration free and comfortable bike to ride.
@@sanjayls1955 😂😂😂👌👌i had the same issue mahn. wondering whether to get the dominar or the duke 390 and i too own an apache but a 160 and need a vibe free bike with a good top end also
Great going. Perhaps the first reviewer to mention the term 'resonance' that I have come across. I thought all the physics I studied was useless until now 😄
Let me tell you this story. I was in my first year of college, 2011, cbr 250 was launched back in that time. I loved that bike mostly due to it's reliability, we know Honda very well. One day going to college I saw one red cbr , a normal guy with long hair , no helmet ( nva mind, local area). He waited for the traffic light to go green and boom he goes , his hair in the wind and the sweet sound of cbr and it's presence made the whole seen so dramatic, no wonders you can make girls wet 🤣 with that bike while keeping the maintenance so low. That bike is like a true wingman. Since then I had a huge crush on cbr. The thing i wanna say is it has been a really long time Honda hasn't given it a proper upgrade but still whenever an enthusiast will buy in that segment, he will have cbr on the list for sure, he will have a look for sure. No doubts it is the most respected bike in our Indian market. Just one thing that disappoints me is the price , they hiked the price too much for literally the same thing sold years back. Once a cbr fan always a fan.

No insult to anyone but i chose cbr 250r over dominar and dukes even in 2019, your reviews helped me a lot in finding the right direction. Believe me i am in love with my cbr :)
CBR250R is the king in 2 lakh segment! Previously I had Hero Karizma ZMR for 3 years & I bought Honda CBR 250R in Feb,2017 after test riding 5 bikes, i.e., RE Classic 350, RE Thunderbird 350, UM Bikes Renegade, R15 & Pulsar 220! Honda has the smoothest engine ever!! I❤️CBR!
I love both these machines....but I am really crossed with Honda for not updating the CBR. I mean it's a great bike with great reliability. But CBR 250 has done enough for the company and its time they give this machine some rest and bring in a new successor. Or atleast give this a proper update and not just new stickers. Because this bike really deserves it.
I loved it ur video......n thnx bro cz m aso a HONDA CBR250R owner n m having 2012 model n yet nw i got 0% vibrations evn at 11000rpm at speed of 155kmph.....CBR250R is way far better thn dominar
People always had a question why CBR didn't get any up-gradation, Its becoz, it was way advance 10 years back. Just that Indians were not aware !! Imagine 10 years back..DOHC setup, Liquid Cool, 6 speed transmission and one of a kind Combined ABS( nobody has till date in this segment at-least). USD forks are not provided to keep it easy reachable to mass till date but still it has thick forks according to the wheel base.. Its a LEGEND and it will be !!
This is tough one Strell, but i have to pick CBR 250R because of its superb comfort. Also i remember you saying, "cbr250r engine spares you, even if you miss its Service, but other bikes (especially Bajaj) does not spare you if didn't serviced on time" which is crucial. This is why i love CBR 250R. It gives same performance even after 5 years!
Nikk Sir how is your experience on your cbr? I wish to purchase one cbr for me. What is the milgae and maintenance cost..? Is it same as Mr Stell said or any other figures..?
@@sarojagrawal6729 ktm engine detuned by Bajaj, no near performance of KTM Duke 390 or RC 390, for service you have to go to Bajaj service center with Bajaj mechanics.
Proudly owner of a Cbr250r 2013 model , done my leh Ladakh tour and spiti valley tour on it without any Breakdawn and still going well thanks Honda for making such a reliable and beautiful machine
CBR is a legend we all know. Dominor is an excellent bike debut making VFM with all new tech. CBR is a well refined & reliable sports tourer. While dominor is a well built commute+tourer.
Nice and honest comparison up there- however I would tend to disagree on the mileage part. I have a 6 year old CBR having clocked 1.77 lac kms and I consistently get 35-38 kpl in the worst of traffic (my commute happens on one of the most congested highway in the country - the Western Express Highway where at times it takes you 2.5 hrs to cover 20 kms). And people claiming 40 on highway riding aren't wrong either- its not that you have to be conservative while riding it- it would give you 40+ even while cruising around 100-110 kph, the speeds which I don't consider to be sedate at all. I think I have to thrash my CBR really bad to get something around 26 kpl ;) In fact if I have to cross quote from another riding experience- I had ridden the CBR650F on a 1000 kms one day trip and it returned me 22 kpl- this might show how badly one needs to ride a little single pod 250cc motorcycle to get measly figures. BTW here was my long term review on my CBR some time back: www.motoroids.com/features/honda-cbr250r-125000-km-long-term-ownership-review-an-epic-saga/
@@cyrilabraham6144 Well not until 1.75L kms where the engine seized coz I hadn't checked the oil level for months and that is how long my stock clutch plates lasted too ;)

I want to ask you one question, If you would buy a bike at the present time which bike will you pick Bajaj Dominar 400 2019 or Honda CBR 250R 2018?? Waiting for your reply.
Ideally, with slipper clutch the service interval should have been higher(DUKE390) but surprisingly less than CBR250R. If you really check the complete service interval of Dominar, you will be visiting the ASC more often until 10k kms than CBR250R. So initial low investment equals to CBR250R by the time Dominar has been run-in completely.
( CBR 250, 310RR, Dominar 400 )So final verdict is that you can own any one amongst the three motorcycle without any regret, considering all aspects from budget, comfort, refinement etc.
I think you should mention price difference as well... But appreciating all your efforts and detailing... Was waiting for it for a long time and it came at the right time. At the time of hatrick offer running for Baja Bikes..👍👍
Im from srilanka and Im having cbr 250r ,bought in 2017 but just done only 17k km as of now. It gives pretty smooth and very comfortable when riding, my top speed 100kmph I didn't try more then 100kmph I don't feel any kinda vibration in that speed.
Those cbr power figures are lie. Cbr pulls very good after you cross 4k rpm also tall gearing top end of cbr is identical to duke 390 around 165km/hr. That also with excellent stability
Hi, I want to buy a cbr250r now but it's not available, if you have any connection with Honda, can you provide detail of any available old stocks..?? Besides, the colour u have is not available now, it's the best.
Sir muje 90%mainly long touring, 10% city ride k liye bike chaiye, Mera height 5'5 hai, Maine dominar and cbr250abs choose Kiya hai, ismese konsa bike acha hoga mere liye? Please suggest me. Aur apka knowledge pe koi aur bike hai to, please suggest me.
the most sad part of owning cbr250r for me is the maintenance cost. I used to visit the Honda service center as I couldn't find any local mechanic who could help with any repairs and service. Honda charged me 7k on avg for times i have visited them. Also the lockset design has a manufacturing fault (old cbr had a longer key compared to new but lockset design remains the same). Due to this, i was unable to turn the bike on after inserting the key. Honda wanted me to pay 13k for a new lockset. And there were numerous such occasions with other parts.
Hey Strell, been watching your videos for long time and need some advice thinking of buying cbr250r 2018 model but saw in some videos that parts are rarely available. is it the case? please shre you views. or should i go for dominar?
If a person rides average speed of 120 km/hr on 5thgear all day long on highway which bike will u choose between dominar and cbr250 (2018 edition)? vibration is the main concern here!!!
Thanks Strell. I recently started watching Ur videos. Really useful. Covering allmost each and every part of it. I think now you have CBR650r. Congratulations 👍. Undoubtedly Honda's. Famous for their engine refinement and build quality. Good choice. Even though I am a Ninja fan I started liking cb250r. Planning to own one.
To be honest, on a one on comparison, Dominar is not showing much superior quality during upshifts. Aggressive Downshifts are better because of slipper clutch. But not as good as we see on a tvs motorcycle. And both comes with dual channel ABS. More over I liked this comparison to be free of spec.
Strell So Without comparison., Is it good for ladakh ?..Even 150pulsars are making it...right.. Actually i don't like upright position only for the purpose of ladakh i wanted to buy DOMINAR....Soon.. After this comparison i feel CBR is best for myself .... Thank you so much for making this type of videos..,💐👌👍
If you feel, you could take a sports tourer for off road purpose, CBR could handle it. Generally people with no background on sports motorcycles suffer a lot on bad roads. You ask me, I like to go every where on sports. Ladhak is not just bad roads :D . There are many beautiful roads there. Take long rides on these two and see which one you like more. Don't just go with reviews :)
hello sir i had a question my friend own's CBR250 ABS 2011 model but now he is facing an issue of REAR TYRE lock & bike skate's from rear tyre towards left or right whenever he applies the brake but the FRONT ABS is working properly ANY SOLUTIONS for this problem????
Well done dude but u should compare to same cc segment bike. so if you can do compareation video between cbr250r 2018 and ktm duke 250 thoes two bike because I'm getting confused to get one of those bike let me help to pick one of those mechanics ThankQ
Strell ....damn...i wish i had that option. Just booked a black d400 yesterday. They won't even let me test ride it because I'm scrawny and don't have a licence lol. (How can they sell it to me then?)
Strell Thank you for very detailed comparison between CBR250 and Dominar 400 I agree that both are different from each others however are best touring machines.. now it dippend person on person which bike they like.. but I am sure this review will make all of us understand and things more clearer which bike we should go for.. Thanks again for the honest and complete review.. Keep Riding..👍👍😃
It is a nice review but not a complete review. I have a few queries. Here they are: (a) Have you or any rider in your circle faced the problem of rim-bending due to pothole menace? Some KTM Duke 390 owners have reported such an issue with their machine. (b) How do the electronics and electricals function after both the bikes are thoroughly drenched in rough rain? (c) If CBR 250R is exclusively used for touring, how many kilometer do the rear tyre take to wear? (d) How good is the comfort of pillion seat keeping in view of the slope, foam hardness, use of anti-skid fabric, seat width & length in question? Also how a lady rider feels about the seat as far as long distance touring is concerned? Thanks.
I could answer your question from CBR's perspective since I own one. A) Yes there are people who has faced rim bends. But not like what happened for KTM. This is mainly when you run over pot holes at high speed. And the bends are not really visible by eyes. One will get to know when the air leaks. B) no issues with electrical switches on CBR. I have taken it all possible scenarios. Even a salt water sea side ride. C) stock tyres will stay for 30k to 40k D) CBR has a well cushioned pillion seat. The pillion will be comfortable for more than 600kms a day. It's fairly anti slide and wide enough to give comfort.
Thanks for your quick and precise response. I have owned Apache RTR 180 version 1.0. It had showed problem of rim leak in rear tyre. The problem was so acute that I was compelled to install a tube within it.
375 cc vs 250 cc . Forget power and torque figures, bigger engine will always have higher power and torque , but it doesn't matter. CBR 250 R is such a legend machine ever built in 250 cc category in the world. U can run this motorcycle upto ages, that's the level of engineering in CBR. It's a world class , highly reliable, super tough product from HONDA.
Excellent review. But i dont really know why it costs so.much for cbr even for abs the price hike is too much. The only thing i personally love to see in doninar is proper stock wind shield with fairing like cbr. That makes the deal. What do you say..
Hii bhai, just wanted to know if I can use Shell Advance Ultra 10W40 FS instead of Honda Throttle FS while my routine paid service at Honda service centers? Will my warranty be affected? And is it possible and technically should they allow me or not?
Yes, your warranty will be affected, in case of any problems spotted with the engine. The technicians will allow you. But need to justify your purpose.
So is Shell just way better than Throttle FS as told in forums?? Or should I continue with Throttle FS? I have heard Shell makes the engine more smooth? Bdw what oil are you using?
If you are asking about the safety of the motorcycle, I guess you could ride how much ever you could. CBR is a pretty reliable machine. One cannot just break it by riding on highways.

Selvin Rajkumar Jennison do what your heart desires.
Yes it's an official accessory
Sammy_1300135 v great👍🏼
Great practical comparison which actually matters to people..
Did you exchange the alloys with black ones? How much extra did you pay?
Thanks Strell. I recently started watching Ur videos. Really useful. Covering allmost each and every part of it. I think now you have CBR650r. Congratulations 👍. Undoubtedly Honda's. Famous for their engine refinement and build quality. Good choice. Even though I am a Ninja fan I started liking cb250r. Planning to own one.
which bike is good for tall rider of height 6'3? type- touring at speeds of 120kmph comfort is priority
Excellent comparison , much appreciated ...
Great vid bro 😘
Bro could you do a separate video for dominar?
In the perspective of it as someones first bike and all?
It's done. Will upload soon 😊
Why no explanations about the features of dominor like slipper clutch, easy upshift and downshifts, dual channel abs etc
To be honest, on a one on comparison, Dominar is not showing much superior quality during upshifts. Aggressive Downshifts are better because of slipper clutch. But not as good as we see on a tvs motorcycle. And both comes with dual channel ABS. More over I liked this comparison to be free of spec.
Strell can u please do a review on 0-100 fastest stopping motorcycle between 310 rr , dominor and cbr 250
Is CBR 250r Good for ladakh
off-road ride.. Comparing to Dominar..???
Reply must please...
Comparing to Dominar, CBR is not a good offroader.
Strell
So Without comparison., Is it good for ladakh ?..Even 150pulsars are making it...right..
Actually i don't like upright position only for the purpose of ladakh i wanted to buy DOMINAR....Soon..
After this comparison i feel CBR is best for myself ....
Thank you so much for making this type of videos..,💐👌👍
If you feel, you could take a sports tourer for off road purpose, CBR could handle it. Generally people with no background on sports motorcycles suffer a lot on bad roads. You ask me, I like to go every where on sports. Ladhak is not just bad roads :D . There are many beautiful roads there. Take long rides on these two and see which one you like more. Don't just go with reviews :)
hello sir i had a question my friend own's CBR250 ABS 2011 model but now he is facing an issue of REAR TYRE lock & bike skate's from rear tyre towards left or right whenever he applies the brake but the FRONT ABS is working properly ANY SOLUTIONS for this problem????
Well done dude but u should compare to same cc segment bike. so if you can do compareation video between cbr250r 2018 and ktm duke 250 thoes two bike because I'm getting confused to get one of those bike let me help to pick one of those mechanics ThankQ
Is it good to buy a second hand cbr strell???
CBR is love ❤️❤️ once a CBR fan always a CBR fan when you ride a Cbr and then anything else it’s CBR always ❤️❤️
Hey Strell Which one would be Better for City Dominar400 or Duke250??
Dominar bro. This is more refined than duke250
Strell what about Serving and Vibrations problems?
Hello,strell ! Can u tell me at what price u done all that fitting of headlight of 2018 model on u r 2015 model?
How did you get this shade alloys in 2018 dominar? Do they give an option now?
The most awaited video...
Finally!!!
Did you paint dominar alloys or it is stock?
Btw are those aftermarket black alloys or did you just paint the golden ones?
We swapped with another Dominar with black alloys.
Strell ....damn...i wish i had that option.
Just booked a black d400 yesterday.
They won't even let me test ride it because I'm scrawny and don't have a licence lol.
(How can they sell it to me then?)
Ur videos are simply awesome... Places u choose to make videos are wonderful 😍😍✌️
cbr 250r 😙❤
Strell Thank you for very detailed comparison between CBR250 and Dominar 400 I agree that both are different from each others however are best touring machines.. now it dippend person on person which bike they like.. but I am sure this review will make all of us understand and things more clearer which bike we should go for.. Thanks again for the honest and complete review.. Keep Riding..👍👍😃
It is a nice review but not a complete review. I have a few queries. Here they are: (a) Have you or any rider in your circle faced the problem of rim-bending due to pothole menace? Some KTM Duke 390 owners have reported such an issue with their machine. (b) How do the electronics and electricals function after both the bikes are thoroughly drenched in rough rain? (c) If CBR 250R is exclusively used for touring, how many kilometer do the rear tyre take to wear? (d) How good is the comfort of pillion seat keeping in view of the slope, foam hardness, use of anti-skid fabric, seat width & length in question? Also how a lady rider feels about the seat as far as long distance touring is concerned? Thanks.
I could answer your question from CBR's perspective since I own one.
A) Yes there are people who has faced rim bends. But not like what happened for KTM. This is mainly when you run over pot holes at high speed. And the bends are not really visible by eyes. One will get to know when the air leaks.
B) no issues with electrical switches on CBR. I have taken it all possible scenarios. Even a salt water sea side ride.
C) stock tyres will stay for 30k to 40k
D) CBR has a well cushioned pillion seat. The pillion will be comfortable for more than 600kms a day. It's fairly anti slide and wide enough to give comfort.
Thanks for your quick and precise response. I have owned Apache RTR 180 version 1.0. It had showed problem of rim leak in rear tyre. The problem was so acute that I was compelled to install a tube within it.
375 cc vs 250 cc . Forget power and torque figures, bigger engine will always have higher power and torque , but it doesn't matter. CBR 250 R is such a legend machine ever built in 250 cc category in the world. U can run this motorcycle upto ages, that's the level of engineering in CBR. It's a world class , highly reliable, super tough product from HONDA.
Recently bought Dominar C red
Mahenoor Abraham khan how is it bro
Excellent review. But i dont really know why it costs so.much for cbr even for abs the price hike is too much. The only thing i personally love to see in doninar is proper stock wind shield with fairing like cbr. That makes the deal. What do you say..
Bhai CBR me long ride me kitna stress ata hai hand and shoulder me?
brilliant comparison, very enlightening
How did you got 2017 alloys on 2018 dominar? Do the dealers give this option?
Big fann of ur voice and english fluency....😍
Hii bhai, just wanted to know if I can use Shell Advance Ultra 10W40 FS instead of Honda Throttle FS while my routine paid service at Honda service centers? Will my warranty be affected? And is it possible and technically should they allow me or not?
Yes, your warranty will be affected, in case of any problems spotted with the engine. The technicians will allow you. But need to justify your purpose.
So is Shell just way better than Throttle FS as told in forums?? Or should I continue with Throttle FS? I have heard Shell makes the engine more smooth? Bdw what oil are you using?
Please Compare New Dominar vs New Suzuki Gixxer 250...
Your cam is just amazing bro
As u have completed many long rides ; would u plz share one thing ....How many KMs is safe to ride on CBR without taking any break ???
If you are asking about the safety of the motorcycle, I guess you could ride how much ever you could. CBR is a pretty reliable machine. One cannot just break it by riding on highways.
Dude... thanks for the comparison vedio. What about piliion seat comparison... That's one point we would like to know...
Pillion Seat of CBR is much comfortable than Dominar 😊. We did a tour and got tonknow the difference.
That red dominar doesn't have gold alloys !!!! You modified it ?
bro, my cbr250r 2018 yet to come soon in my hand.. pls tell me which frame slider i have to go for and where to buy?
you are doing so good bro... contents are awesome love you bro... ❤
