Im a massive Honda fan and loved my cbr250 more than any bike ive owned in 40 years,
and was sad when I sat on the new 283cc version (cbr300) the other day as all that I liked about the 250 was gone.
The seat was fatter, softer and lower, the bodywork was fatter, tank had lost that slim sporty feel, and the whole bike felt awkward like a ninja for me.
I'm sure its a good bike but I never came to terms with my Ninja after being spoilt by the Hondas decade newer dynamics and featherweight slim precise feel.
Cant wait for my R3.
