Latest Updates
Sunday, 15 January 2023 01:22 AM The Honda CBR250RR has become even better with its recent upgrade in Japan. It has been equipped with new shades and a more powerful engine, offering more power and torque. 
Tuesday, 24 January 2023 12:35 AM Honda may discontinue the CBR250R as it does not conform to BS6 emission standards. Its global replacement is the CBR300R, which has been available for some time. The CB300R is Honda's current choice for a supersport.
Thursday, 18 July 2024 08:36 AM Rumors suggest that the 2024 Honda CBR250RR-R will feature an inline four-cylinder engine producing 55hp and revving up to 20,000 rpm, competing directly with the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-25R. This new engine could significantly enhance the bikes performance and appeal.
Sunday, 14 July 2024 07:59 PM The 2024 Honda CBR250RR boasts a sharp, aggressive design that improves aerodynamics and handling. It is equipped with a high-revving 249cc parallel-twin engine, a 6-speed transmission, and advanced safety features like ABS and Hondas selectable torque control system. I believe this design and tech combo makes it a great choice for both new and experienced riders.
Wednesday, 26 June 2024 12:03 PM The 2024 Honda CBR250RR has been updated with a refined 249cc twin-cylinder engine, producing 41hp at 13,000rpm and 25Nm of torque at 11,000rpm, a slight increase from the previous model. The bike also features a 37mm Showa Separate Function Big Piston fork and a preload-adjustable monoshock. I think these updates make it an even more appealing option for sportbike enthusiasts.
Wednesday, 26 June 2024 11:11 AM Honda has introduced the CBR250RR in Malaysia, priced at around Rs 5 lakh, making it a premium offering. The bike includes advanced features like a blue backlit LCD dash, an all-LED lighting system, and dual-channel ABS. Given its high price, its unlikely to be launched in India anytime soon.

The bikes suspension system is tuned for sporty riding dynamics, offering a balance of comfort and responsiveness. I think this makes it an excellent choice for riders looking for a fun and agile bike.
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 10:43 AM The 2024 Honda CBR250RR has a fuel tank capacity of 14.5 liters and a kerb weight of 189kg, balancing performance and fuel efficiency. The bike also features 17-inch alloy wheels and a modern LED lighting setup. This combination of features makes it a compelling option for those seeking a sporty yet practical ride.
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 11:31 PM Hondas decision to not launch the CBR250RR in India is largely due to the price sensitivity in the market. The bikes high price tag, around Rs 5 lakh, makes it less competitive against other options available in the Indian market.
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 01:52 PM The CBR250RRs engine has been refined to reduce the combustion volume and increase the compression ratio, resulting in a smoother engine response. This update, along with the increased intake port diameter, enhances the overall performance of the bike. I think these tweaks will be appreciated by riders who enjoy pushing their bikes to the limit.
Wednesday, 02 August 2023 05:03 PM The 2024 Honda CBR250RR is equipped with advanced safety features, including ABS and Hondas selectable torque control system, which enhance traction and stability during acceleration and cornering. This focus on safety makes the bike more appealing to a wider range of riders.

India Launch Update This may not be a piece of good news for Honda fans but the launch of CBR250RR in India is only possible via local production route. At present, the 2021 model of the sportbike is available in Japan for JPY 8,21,700 (INR 5.79 lakh, approx). An aggressive and affordable price tag via CKD (Completely Knocked Down) route is not possible as placing the CBR250RR at around INR 3.75-4.00 lakh (ex-showroom) would not get the number of buyers required by Honda to keep the operations going. If Honda starts the local production of CBR250RR and manages to price the sports bike at around INR 3 lakh, only then the brand would be able to get a decent sales number in India. As of now, HMSI has not announced anything officially regarding the launch of the CBR250RR in India. The brand may consider the sports bike for the Indian market at a later stage in future.
