Hello,

I have a CBR250RR and im obviously not worthy... I want to fill its tires up with air goodness, but I cant find anything on the tyre to say what pressure to use?!?! Ive looked all over and its not stated anywhere! Does anyone have any idea what I should do?

Phone a Honda motorbike shop..... on the North Shore..

Or even ring Colemans.... they have had a number of Honda's on their floor...

I found this in the owners manual but I still dont understand what these numbers mean...

CBR250R(J+K) + CBR250RR(L+N+R);
Front : 2.25kg/cm2
Rear : 2.5kg/cm2

Edit: Google FTW, its 33 PSI front and 36 PSI back.

Is that the left rear, or the right rear?

Ya'll have been helpful haven't ya?

Lol

Next time ask in the 250 forum :)
It should have it on the wall of your tyre the max load at cold.

If you are running sport demons i use 42psi in both tyres at cold. its bad arse, you fall over just like that :) whole new machine but high 30's is cool but harder to get over. feels heavier
