So what are your thoughts and opions on the new cbr250r coming to America. Finally something that is not another small ninja.

I personal think its great and wouldn't mind getting one for comuting daily and saving the bigger bike for the fun weekends.

Thought and opions are welcome.

 

I like the looks of them

 

I'm a fan too!

 

I like it too. I just think it should be something like a 400cc. Now if it was a two stroke.....I'd like to rip it!

 

Meh, 250. As a previous owner of a Kawasaki 250, all it leaves the owner is wanting for more. Good in concept, but the owners tend to get bored of them VERY quick. Nice body.

 

i already have a ninja 250 w/ 33k miles and it is a hoot and far from boring... but it is nice to have another option for newbies especially for honda fans...

 

looks like a baby VFR, i probably get bored really easily

 

When my nephew was looking to get his 1st bike (ended up with Suzuki 250 Across, 4 cylinder), at that time learners where restricted to 250's. Anyway test rode a few CBR250's & found them to be a real hoot. nice howl from the pipes & to be honest brought a smile to my face thrashing the little buggers through the twisties. Good brakes & handling & typical Honda paint & finish & the new ones would only be better.

 

I want one to do mini-Endurance racing. 250 is the max size allowed; we raced a Kawa on a 2 hour race in October and it was a blast. You really have to work on the cornering as your straights are pretty set, though we also had a blast drafting. It was like WOT the whole time. None of this smooth throttle work like we normally teach...off or wide open!!

I just wish some aftermarket shocks, plastics, etc. would be available when the bike comes out (and I wish it would be sooner - they told us at the Motorcycle Show it would be April).

 

Perfect starter bike I love it.

And as far as a 250 being too small or getting bored you guys don't know how to ride one then. nuff said.
