Honda CBR250R Review - Still Relevant | Faisal Khan 

Sharing my CBR story. I have a CBR250R ABS 2012 Model. It’s done about 60k km and it still runs like new. It’s my first bike and I love it to bits. I’ve had falls with it, I’ve toured the entire country with it, done daily college runs, night rides, everything possible. I am quite heavy and even with my weight my 6 year old bike did 171 kmph (Speedo reading, downhill, tailwind 😛). Nevertheless, it does 130-135 effortlessly with all the luggage. Mileage, performance, braking, everything has been consistent over the last 6 years. I do wish it was faster or atleast felt faster like the Dukes and RCs but on the highway, this thing just munches miles. I absolutely hate its suspension though. It’s too soft. And the instrument cluster is also horrible compared to Dukes and Pulsars. But I will take my CBR to the most torturous terrain in a heartbeat. It’s never let me down and again, I love it to bits!

90,000/- for a 3000km run Cbr250 ABS... man you got the deal of the century 👌

It was my dream bike when I was in 10th grade😍😍

I purchased a 2013 Honda CBR 250R Repsol ABS edition with only 9k on the Odometer. 1st owner moving out of country. Paid 80k. Minor repairs and services. Installed Michelin pilot street radials. And now the beast runs like a dream. 160+ top speed. Haha . Best bike by Honda ever.

I got a 3rd hand 2011 ABS model , initially I was very sceptical about performance etc.. but then after I took it to my native which is about 450 km , NH 4 , the experience was awesome , I cruised between 110-120 kmph comfortably , fantastic road grip , stability , absorbs poth holes , bumps very confidently.. I was able to cover 450 km in about 5.5 hours including half hour break. Plus it gave an average between 29-32 km per litre....

i bought this bike when it was launched....it was my first bike...yeah i learnt to ride on this bike! 7 years and thousands of km's later am glad to say i got to ride tons of bikes but the only bike that does it all is the cbr....its comfy as you mentioned...slap on some wider and stickier rubbers (i have switched to pirelli's up front and michillen's in the rear) and it handles like a dream....maintenance...well its a honda so never had to worry about it at all. So to conclude yes there are other bikes in the market but this one holds a special place in my heart... ;)

i own this beast from 2012 and clocked 107,000 kms on it.. its very reliable,But Spares are very expensive to maintain

Proud owner ❤ almost 50k done.. Absolute smooth and top speed achieved 168km/h and braked because of traffic. Honda is Honda ❤

1)Best sports tourer in the segment 2)70k + KMS done 3) ridden nonstop 1000KMS a day only fuel halts 4)best riding position 5) superb engine quality. No break downs yet. 6)Best at price 7) After all its HONDA quality at its best :)

mirrors are like hayabusha..if you'll notice 😂😂

How come your reviews are so relevant while most of the other indian reviews look somewhat paid . Without the use of flashy music and epic drone shots you manage to get the real matter to people . You connect and continue to connect to people. Keep it like that mate.

Meanwhile activa 5G doesn't get telescopic forks😂

'vtech kicked in yo' 😂😂

If honda had just continued to sell this bike this can get decent sell numbers.afterall it is bigger, better ,refined,reliable and comfortable than ktm and also available with abs option.

My neighbour have a Cbr250, he was one of the first person in kerala to brought it when it was launched for the first time in India. He says that its a fantastic bike, and the most intresting thing about the vehicle is its braking capacity. It makes the vehicle to come to rest even from very high speed within a short span. But the maitenance cost is very high even a brakeshoe will cost around 2500.

@7:20 That Honda City smoked you

Your content is much better than "motorbeam", bro. :D I like your honesty and enthusiasm.

This motor is dead till 4000 rpm but after that it just pulls 😬

Abs.. saved my life twice on this bike... a great machine for touring.... Did 11000 km on my 2016 version out of which 4500 is done on touring...

When that CITY pulled😍❤️

Cbr250r is an amazing bike. I still remember my friend got the repsol edition back in 2012 and he used the bike so well. Those were the good days better days are coming for honda lovers. Soon we will get activa 1000g supercharged scooty. Cant wait 😍

I wanted this when I was in class 10th😭 Still love to see it on the road

Nice, earthy, organic narrative and a relaxed, believable presentation.. Well done, as r your other vids I've seen. I had th 2011cbr and yup, i can attest to its relative pep and overall fun factor. She's a versatile machine, easy on gas..... still cn move on th highway, if maintained right.... And i even took her on light offroad /adv type rides (gently), on a few occasions. I do miss her, in more ways than one, even though I now have a considerably more powerful bike. Had mine been a 250 twin cylinder, i would likely have just kept it..... But even as a single, i could - - - - - in retrospect - - - - have squeezed more out of it by introducing a better exhaust and adjusting the ECU.. Glad to hear your appraisal and, hey, keep em coming

attained a top speed of 140kmph on cbr150r. Extremley reliable engine, had not changed the clutch once. 60000 km and still going on! Mileage 38-40kmpl

Kya mst video bhai, mazaa aa gya I am a CBR fan but doesn't bought it yet. Fans of cbr like here let's see how many CBR lovers are there.

Honda is Honda ... Comfort , reliability , believe and part of my family :) +Faisal Khan

2.54 go slow warning and u bro just gave it the beans there😂

I really love cbr250r, i always wished if i can have it. I think its a perfect motercycle

best review ever, really enjoyed the communication, can relate to it.

I am using a cbr 250r from 2012. Till date, it never had a single break down on the road. Post 120 km/hr the pull is sluggish. It stays planted even at its top speed. Has good mileage for a 250 cc engine. Standard continental tyres are not up to the mark so I have upgraded to Michelin pilot street tyres and I am happy with my choice.In my opinion it’s a well balanced bike for Indain conditions. Thank u Honda for this bike as I have lots of good memories with it😊👍🏻

Nice review. CBR250R even 7 years after its India launch still looks great, is fast, a good tourer, a great commuter, and also a great weekend canyon ride. Also as the review states it also can be taken to a track with good tires. India's best versatile supersport bike is not Apache RR310, but 2018 CBR250R.

Brothr..nice video...pls tell me which is your black riding jacket used in the video?

bro....please drive the icon ....MUSTANG...... I want to see giving it the beans.....

Had a chance of using this bike for a couple of days. This bike”s top speed is 160 and the way you achieve it is by cruising and not by revving hard.

Plzz review the TVS Apache RTR 200 the ABS version.And tell me if we can fit it in ABS in non abs RTR

Even if you buy it now there are registration issues for bs3 motorcycles right?

Just imagining how epic it would be if you get your hands on Rare bikes like the TNT899,Versys1000,CB1000R,H2 You deserve more success :)

5000 likes should get I'm still in love with this bike

Can you plz review the aprila 150 scooty and compare it with Suzuki access 125 special edition.plz

faisal bhai is it better than fz 250(rite now i own one)but i want to upgrade to cbr abs is it a worthy upgrade.

Plz do a rewiew on zx10R or z1000 or z900

Pls do a review of new ns200 in your channel. Many people want to hear it from you

Can anyone tell me whats the difference between cbr 250 2012 vs 2013 in terms of quality as someone told me that they called back cbr due to some quality issue.

Will it relaunch in india as lauched in foreign countries as 250 rr with dual silencer?

Old is gold✌️✌️✌️😁

Best video ever cbr 250😍😍

whats up,with the pulsar as200? is it going to be back?

Yeah one of the first affordable sports bike of india

Hello bro will 2018 CBR 250R come with ABS as standard or not ? since its not a new model anyways its been here for 7 years. Also there are so many bike launches happening in mar2018, apache 200 ver2,super splendor,suzuki gixxer,mojo UT300. Going by this will honda be pressured to launch the bike this month ?

What is the speed limit of the street u rode?

Honda International = Really good Honda India = Shit

Vtec kicked in yo..🤘🤓

hello sir does the temperature bar rises to 3bars after riding 2-3kms in the colony areas?

Is slipper clutch available on cbr 250rr

I think one (of) the thing that killed it was the dealers, who're always busy selling a billion activa..I went for a test ride at 2 dealerships in 2012, while first one refused, the second allowed a 300M run around the showroom..So I bought the Duke 200.

no doubt on this machine. a great machine made by honda .i done 1000 km in 24 hours. without any problem.😍😍😍

dear sir i asked you which bikes best under 2.3 lakes? pls give ur opinion.

What's the mic you use?

CBR 250 RR Please Honda Dede na baba De de Bhai Lekin 3.50 lakh ki nahi 2 - 2.50 Tak chalega

Got it in used market for 75k at odo reading 26k 2012 ABS model... using it for 1 year now...super smooth beyond 4k rpm but inside city sounds a bit coarse(by Honda standards), just changed the brake pads air filter and good to go :).Rear tyre Mrf zapper s 140/70, the previous owner put it but its better than the conti,front tyre is stock conti and needs an urgent upgrade. Mileage of around 31-33 here in Kolkata.Did a couple of highway rides at speeds of 100-110 ,unbelievable economy of 37-39 kmpl.Personal top speed is 151kmph without even downshifting or anything ,saw an open stretch on the highway just whacked open the throttle in 6th gear tucked behind the windshield at 115kph and it pulled past 150.Am really happy,for me its a perfect blend of economy and performance. Wanted a Dominar but a bit cash strapped, haha :D. Btw i really want HONDA to bring its 500 trio in INDIA, but I have stopped expecting from them.

Sir can I go with without abs model

I think there is a reason why they are not updating this model. It is the tried and tested bike and they don't want to tinker with that tag (especially in our country where people actually hate much changes in a reliable machine) . Bringing 300 r will push the price up and also honda will need more time to set things up for 300r. In my view, they just need to update those mirrors and provide proper sports tourer accessories. May be they can follow Kawasaki strategy too, Retain 250 with minor changes and launch a parallel twin 300 as people are moving towards proper upgrades unlike before. But a new generation 150 would definitely grasp a lot of market

Honda is Honda Waley ayengy Abhi😂😂😂

One can only hope that Honda will bring CBR 250 R back

sir please make a ride review on gixxer naked 2018 version

i have a budget of 1.7L i want to mostly go touring, should i go for brand new ns200 bs6 abs version or should i buy 2019 model cbr250r ???? plz help

It has an engine the reliability of which is legendary. Also, awesome build quality. I think I would still consider buying it even if it is a little dated.

When you accelerated at 1:99 I felt like adrenalin is rushing in my blood..

While pulling engine it sounds like it is not revving free and needs a free flow exhaust ... and some more kms too on that odo

6ft guy CBR 250 2018 vs dominor 400 which to buy?!

Bro make a video on old endevour

Still i love this bike

Its very nic eto see that you are discussing about old bikes also, i may look forward to see a test drive of RD350

Cool one.. I like the way how you rev the engine.. please review dsk tornado 302r..

Even i own one and as u said its the go anywhere motorcycle .its maintenance free and the quality is top notch.fun to ride on highway and city equally .thumbsup to u bhai.

Best bike in every aspect .. for a entry level rider .. he cant ask more then this !! It kills duke 200 in top speed .. and my best in cbr250r is around 168 ..

Your review videos are as good as always

Any idea when will the bs4 version launch? I'm ready to take this bike with same body and looks also

My cbr does 0-100 in 7 sec max i have done around 20k kms also my 1st gear pulls till 55kmph n i have achieved the top speed of 168kmph

Faisal khan,this 250r pulls upto 170kmpr ,man cbr 150r is capable to touch 150kmpr mark,why not this 26bhp 250r 🤔

How much i can spend for 2015 model second hand?

Great Video Faizal..............Super coverage ovearll

2:52 What a Place to Launch...Road Sign...Says "GO SLOW" .... LOL

I remembered Delhi bikerboi

Brother i am also looking for CBR 250 ABS. Any one to sale ?

Hey faisal can u review the old ford figo 1.4 diesel if possible?? Want to knw how previous figo hold up 😀

Bro this bike runs only 4k km in 6years I can't believe it🙄...I think the odometer is new...I don't think this bike runs only 4k km,it's sound is not like a proper cbr250r,I also have cbr250r...my bike is so silent& climbs up speed very smoothly...I can easily touch 150kmph without reving to hard...man your friends bike have serious issues.,..also that gear shift sound is so annoying... Cbr250r gear box is butter smooth...mine bike is 38k km run...its in mint condition.... I do proper maintenance...also I love my bike

I hv CBR 250R REPSOL EDITION.

Hello Faisal! If you go by the bike 🚲 so much speed on cloudy snow time , how dangerous it, don't u know?
