Hi,

Its time to sell my Honda CBR250RR which i've owned for 1 year and 7 months and have only done less than 1000kms. I rarely ride as i have a car to get to work and im way to busy on the weekends to even think about going riding. I mainly use it to get around quickly, ie: to the shops or gym.

Since owning, i have completed the following:

- flushed all fluids (oil, brakes, coolant)

- brand new battery

- brand new tyres front & rear

- brand new brakes front & rear

- brand new chain

- brand new 54t rear sprocket (improved acceleration)

- brand new red LED dash lights (stock ones are pathetic)

- Screaming Demon Carbon Exhaust

Info:

Build: 5/1999 (Aus Delivered)

Brand: Honda

Model: CBR250RR

Kms: 35,xxx

Rego: NSW, till 09/11

Price: $5,500

Location: Western Sydney

I take really good care with my toys and never cut corners, engine is solid and i can guarantee this is one of the best CBR250RR's you will ever ride. I bought this bike off a mate, who also bought it of a copper who was a bike enthusiast. This bike has been well taken care of and doesnt require you to fix up or replace things like other bikes! Why buy a bike from some uni student who probably couldnt even afford insurance, let alone maintenance? Or alternatively if you are a uni student why buy a another bike that needs you to spend alot of money just to have it worry free?

If you saw one similar but cheaper somewhere else, then go buy it! I'm in no rush to sell, so dont bother with any low blows.

Please PM me for further details or my number.

Thanks

completely forgot i even had this thing! anyways bumping it up for the new year! unfortunately I just found out that this bike is listed under REV's as a repairable write-off. mind you it has been fixed to an excellent standard because i can't even find which part was damaged to begin with! my mate i bought it off didnt even check REV's when he bought it from the owner prior to him (being a copper and all!) - so sorry i have no history on it!

bike has no rego (plates returned to RTA) however im more than happy to organise a NSW blue slip/rego (at your expense of course!) for the buyer if your worried about it getting re-registered. I have all the required paperwork.

keeping this all in mind plus the fact i've got a little one on the way, i've checked bikesales and i think a fair price would be $3,200. by the way its still at 36,xxx kms since my last post in august 2011 :)

no time wasters please, i dont have time to ride this bike (~1000km's over 3 years) let alone deal with your kind lol

cheers

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
