15000+ km

Got mileage of

35 kmpl

Cbr 250r was my first bike since college and I've had it since 2012. The bike hasn't let me down in terms of quality and the build of the vehicle. 10 years and 70k kms later the engine is just as smooth and rides like a dream. Easily the best investment made even though people claimed it was way too expensive for a bike in 2012.

    No words to explain what it is to own this engineering marvel and when I say that it's not out of excitement and exaggeration just the pleasure of riding one will make you feel what exactly I am trying to say the comfort, reliability, power and performance is all mind blowing and will just sweep you off your feet.

  • Excellent bike

    50 weeks ago


    Shivam

    The Honda CBR250R is a popular sportbike known for its blend of performance, comfort, and fuel efficiency. With a 249cc single-cylinder engine, it strikes a balance between power and economy. The bike's design is sporty and eye-catching, featuring sharp lines and a full fairing that resembles its larger supersport siblings.
    One of the key highlights of the CBR250R is its user-friendly nature. The bike is well-suited for both beginners and experienced riders, offering a comfortable riding position and manageable power delivery. The fuel injection system ensures smooth throttle response, contributing to a pleasant riding experience.
    In terms of performance, the CBR250R delivers adequate power for city commuting and highway cruising. While it may not be the fastest in its class, it excels in fuel efficiency, making it a practical choice for riders who prioritize cost-effective transportation. The six-speed transmission is smooth, allowing for seamless gear changes.

    It was a nice experience buying this bike and a nice service from Honda.
    The riding experience is also very nice sometimes feel less power on the highway but overall it's pretty good.
    Looks are amazing
    Service and maintenance are also very affordable spare parts are easily available.
    Overall it's a nice bike with the refined engine by Honda but sometimes feels less power.

  • Honda CBR250R

    Manu Js

    I've been using CBR250R ABS for more than half a decade now. I'll categorize my review: Performance: The bike is smooth initially (typical Honda) but as soon as you cross 6K rpm, the Bike shoots a boost of power. The torque is really good from the mid to high range, particularly from 6K to 9K, The front wheel wants to lift & I get goosebumps. The Honda engine is very smooth, stress-free & reliable, never got broken or overheated thanks to liquid cooling, zero problems with the radiator. Breaks: I bought the ABS version, It gets Nissin calipers which are one the Top best breaks in terms of quality & reliability in the segment, The breaks never ever disappoint me unless the tyres are bad.

    I've been using my CBR250R ABS since 2011. Buying Experience was really good. Ultimate riding experience for daily use and touring. Still a head-turner. Servicing and Maintenance are a bit expensive side. Pros - Very refined, reliable engine and ultimate machine for long-touring. Cons - Spare Parts availability, inadequate service centers

  • CBR 250 R Limited Edition

    Tahseen Chunnu Baig

    It's a 2019 model & is discontinued now.
    The best part of riding is its handling which is great the bike looks hulky but it can be passed from small gaps especially helpful in Mumbai traffic. The seating position is also comfortable can ride for hours. The ABS is amazing. The stickers on fearing are also at their best. The top speed I had reached yet is 158 KMPH on Mumbai - Ahmedabad National Highway. After-sales experience is also good from Honda & till now there is no such major work in the bike. Also, the engine is the liquid-cooled cherry on the cake. The average of bikes is 26 KMPL.
    Cons - The Look of the Mirror & Indicator should be something kind of sporty.

  • Superb bike

    Rushikesh Shinde

    Overall great driving experience. The bike's top speed goes up to 150-160 on highways. Although on regular basis in traffic easily runs between 70-100 kmph. Balancing and buildup quality are excellent. It's also reliable, very cheap to run, has a good build quality, looks smart and is comfortable to ride.

  • The Highway King!

    3 years ago


    Anumeet Singh

    Owning an abs variant of cbr250r since 2014, clocked over 45,000 kms and the engine is still going strong. Crashed hard a few times but the build quality is rock solid with minimal vibrations at the top end even after 7 years.
    The looks of the bike is inspired directly by its elder sibling the 1200f and though the cbr now looks a bit dated against its new rivals, it is never even an inch lower in making a style statement of its own even today.
    Ride quality is brilliant with suspension being on bit of the softer side. You can easily cruise on highways with the speeds between 120-140 km/h for a long time without the engine breaking a sweat.
    Delivery experience was delightful but the only issue still prevalent is the spare parts availability.
    Maintenance is minimal to moderate as long as you keep this bike running and in use, once you stall it for like over an year or so, it can easily burn a hole in your pocket.
    Though I personally never cared about mileage much, you can expect around 23 km/l in city and 28 km/l on the highways if you are a throttle freak and love to push the bike to its limits.
    Would've really appreciated if Honda continued this beautiful machine under the bsvi norms but cannot blame them either because of the poor sales.
    Still can't figure out why this bike failed to make a cut in the indian market as I have never come across anyone who doesn't have some liking for this bike or a owner who has had issues with it.
    Anyway it was an amazing experience owning this bike and I will definitely look upto Honda again for bigger displacement bikes in future. They've made sure that i stay a happy customer during my ownership of their wonderful machine.

    Everything is excellent in this bike but one thing that I miss in it, that is gear indicator, it doesn't show that in which gear we are riding it.
    If I talk about it's look, really amazing. I think it is the best motorcycle in this 250cc segment. It requires very less maintenance cost. It is just my superbike for me.

    It was a nice experience buying this bike and a nice service from Honda.
    The riding experience is also very nice sometimes feel less power on the highway but overall it's pretty good.
    Looks are amazing
    Service and maintenance are also very affordable spare parts are easily available.
    Overall it's a nice bike with the refined engine by Honda but sometimes feels less power.

  • Honda CBR250R

    Manu Js

    I've been using CBR250R ABS for more than half a decade now. I'll categorize my review: Performance: The bike is smooth initially (typical Honda) but as soon as you cross 6K rpm, the Bike shoots a boost of power. The torque is really good from the mid to high range, particularly from 6K to 9K, The front wheel wants to lift & I get goosebumps. The Honda engine is very smooth, stress-free & reliable, never got broken or overheated thanks to liquid cooling, zero problems with the radiator. Breaks: I bought the ABS version, It gets Nissin calipers which are one the Top best breaks in terms of quality & reliability in the segment, The breaks never ever disappoint me unless the tyres are bad.

    I've been using my CBR250R ABS since 2011. Buying Experience was really good. Ultimate riding experience for daily use and touring. Still a head-turner. Servicing and Maintenance are a bit expensive side. Pros - Very refined, reliable engine and ultimate machine for long-touring. Cons - Spare Parts availability, inadequate service centers

    Tahseen Chunnu Baig

    It's a 2019 model & is discontinued now.
    The best part of riding is its handling which is great the bike looks hulky but it can be passed from small gaps especially helpful in Mumbai traffic. The seating position is also comfortable can ride for hours. The ABS is amazing. The stickers on fearing are also at their best. The top speed I had reached yet is 158 KMPH on Mumbai - Ahmedabad National Highway. After-sales experience is also good from Honda & till now there is no such major work in the bike. Also, the engine is the liquid-cooled cherry on the cake. The average of bikes is 26 KMPL.
    Cons - The Look of the Mirror & Indicator should be something kind of sporty.

    Overall great driving experience. The bike's top speed goes up to 150-160 on highways. Although on regular basis in traffic easily runs between 70-100 kmph. Balancing and buildup quality are excellent. It's also reliable, very cheap to run, has a good build quality, looks smart and is comfortable to ride.

  • The Highway King!

    3 years ago


    Anumeet Singh

    Owning an abs variant of cbr250r since 2014, clocked over 45,000 kms and the engine is still going strong. Crashed hard a few times but the build quality is rock solid with minimal vibrations at the top end even after 7 years.
    The looks of the bike is inspired directly by its elder sibling the 1200f and though the cbr now looks a bit dated against its new rivals, it is never even an inch lower in making a style statement of its own even today.
    Ride quality is brilliant with suspension being on bit of the softer side. You can easily cruise on highways with the speeds between 120-140 km/h for a long time without the engine breaking a sweat.
    Delivery experience was delightful but the only issue still prevalent is the spare parts availability.
    Maintenance is minimal to moderate as long as you keep this bike running and in use, once you stall it for like over an year or so, it can easily burn a hole in your pocket.
    Though I personally never cared about mileage much, you can expect around 23 km/l in city and 28 km/l on the highways if you are a throttle freak and love to push the bike to its limits.
    Would've really appreciated if Honda continued this beautiful machine under the bsvi norms but cannot blame them either because of the poor sales.
    Still can't figure out why this bike failed to make a cut in the indian market as I have never come across anyone who doesn't have some liking for this bike or a owner who has had issues with it.
    Anyway it was an amazing experience owning this bike and I will definitely look upto Honda again for bigger displacement bikes in future. They've made sure that i stay a happy customer during my ownership of their wonderful machine.

    Everything is excellent in this bike but one thing that I miss in it, that is gear indicator, it doesn't show that in which gear we are riding it.
    If I talk about it's look, really amazing. I think it is the best motorcycle in this 250cc segment. It requires very less maintenance cost. It is just my superbike for me.

  • Excellent bike

    50 weeks ago


    Shivam

    The Honda CBR250R is a popular sportbike known for its blend of performance, comfort, and fuel efficiency. With a 249cc single-cylinder engine, it strikes a balance between power and economy. The bike's design is sporty and eye-catching, featuring sharp lines and a full fairing that resembles its larger supersport siblings.
    One of the key highlights of the CBR250R is its user-friendly nature. The bike is well-suited for both beginners and experienced riders, offering a comfortable riding position and manageable power delivery. The fuel injection system ensures smooth throttle response, contributing to a pleasant riding experience.
    In terms of performance, the CBR250R delivers adequate power for city commuting and highway cruising. While it may not be the fastest in its class, it excels in fuel efficiency, making it a practical choice for riders who prioritize cost-effective transportation. The six-speed transmission is smooth, allowing for seamless gear changes.
