Stripped the lil bike down for a list of winter maintenance. About 2 feet of snow outside.

Tank is being repainted and coated on the inside. new fork seals, dust cover and a heavier oil. Rear shock is being revalved and a remote reservoir added. subframe is being blasted flat black. frame, polished back up to a new-like condition. Lots of cleaning.

They are all over the world some countries just rarer than others..

You may have to look at importing one can be pricey i believe.

Actually, they were never sold in Europe. The CBR250's were only sold in Japan and Australia. I got mine from an Importer in Toronto, ON (Canada).

The rotors were direct bolt on to the stock rim and use the stock brake mounts and calipers. They are fantastic. I ordered them from WE Moto in the UK.

How much did you pay for this baby? I am looking for a 250 to have some fun with and a CBR would be my #1 choice if I can afford one. Also could you provide more details about the importer? Website or Phone #. Thanks.
