    '03 CBR 250!

    Holy. Crap.

    How do I get one?! I thought the CBR 250 was discontinued?

    It is sooo sexy. Please don't tell me that it is a fake

    Looks like some third-world banana republic, based on the limestone outcrops and the marginal housing in the background.

    A quick Google around the first world doesn't reveal a current model CBR250.

    Those mountains look like the sugarloaf mountains in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Brazil's been known for resusticating discontinued models like the Yammie RD350 and Volkswagen Beetle, so perhaps Honda's done something similar?

    It isnt an 03, it is a mc22 cbr250rr (same as mine) with cbr600 f4 fairings and an aftermarket can.

    why on earth isn't there a bigger market for 250s? don't the japanese have a 250-learner rule? there are hardly any new-ish reasonably priced 250s except for the *shudder* GN250.

    Hmmm... So apart from the GSX250, what other 250 4's are there (new)?

    It is pissing me off something awful at the abundance of large bikes, but us new bikers get left out in the rain...

    I think if I were in the market for a new 250, I'd want summat as simple as possible - light, lithe, and easy to work on. None of this multi-cylinder, multivalve, multi-carb nonsense.

    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    The GSX250 is a parrallel twin, so on the new 250 4's thing there is nothing that i can think of.
