2012 Honda CB250R ABS Review and Specifications
2012 Honda CB250R ABS
The CBR250RA is far removed from the sort of basic commuter bike often found in this class – it’s a true Honda sport bike loaded with sophisticated engineering and high-tech components. The good stuff starts with the Honda CBR250R jewel of an engine. Purpose-built just for this bike, the 249 cc liquid-cooled single with PGM-FI electronic fuel injection was conceived, engineered and built to provide an optimum torque curve for street riding, impressive top-end power, and the superior power-to-weight ratio that makes riding a high-performance 250 so exciting. The compact size of the engine was a key element in allowing engineers to create a sporty chassis and rider ergonomics that comfortably fit riders big and small. With its centralized mass, compact wheelbase, full-size 17-inch wheels, nimble steering geometry and light overall weight, the 2012 Honda CBR250R achieves that magical state of feeling like it’s responding to your very thoughts. Plus, it’s the only bike in its class to offer the benefits of ABS brakes.
The 2012 Honda CBR250R serves up everything first-time and long-time riders look for in a bike: Lightweight. Excellent fuel economy. Solid build quality. A user-friendly power band. And a cool factor that can’t be beat.
Plus, since it’s a Honda, the Honda CBR250R is loaded with features few other bike companies can match, including our renowned reliability.
But perhaps the best news is that there’s more than one version to choose from: the Honda CBR250R, and the Honda CBR250R ABS with our Anti-lock Brake System—a first for the segment and a truly valuable option that riders of all experience levels can enjoy.
