CBR250R's review of Honda CBR250R MC19

“I have a 1988 Honda CBR250R MC19. It has done 9000...”

★★★★★

written by CBR250R on 04/06/2004

Good Points
The engine is a natural born psycho. You must be nuts to rev it as high as the redline at 18000rpm. Light, flickable fun. 90 mph feels like 135 did on my VFR750. One day I will take it to it's 120 limit...

Bad Points
Hmmm, if you want a quiet life then think again. This one has to be ridden hard. Wear ear plugs, or you'll be deaf by Tuesday.

General Comments
I have a 1988 Honda CBR250R MC19. It has done 9000 miles and is mint. It takes a few miles to wake up, but then can gradually be taken to its max performance, depending how much mechanical sympathy you have. I find the gear box to be great and handling also very quick and easy. Suspension on mine feels like new, but I tested another MC19 which had been round the clock, and the shock was ruined - ruining the high speed feel. Surprisingly comfortable to ride and I'm 6' tall and 15 stone. For someone lighter, shorter and new to bikes, I cant recommend this enough. 45BHP, top speed 180kmh (120mph) but de-restriction gives you another 10-15 mph extra.

Ru's Response to CBR250R's Review

Written on: 10/11/2010

Hi, I am looking to buy also a CBR 250 MC-19 model
<br/>It is a 1989 year model and has 30 000km on the clock. The price is R12000, about $1500.
<br/>Do you think that it would be a good bike to buy? How many km's can this bike take on the clock before the engine is wasted?
<br/>Thanks alot...

Hello CBR250R,

I see You wrote this review in 2004, after all the years, do You still have the MC19 cbr250r. if so could You tell Us a little about it, and what has occurred throughout the years since 2004. Or if You have departed with it, could We hear Your story about it all the same.

Many Thanks,

Repsol_Cbr125r
