2013 Honda CBR250

wvninjamom · September 6th, 2012, 03:40 PM

The new Honda CBR250 colors came out today. What colors will the new Ninja be?

NoSkillsMcSuckington · September 6th, 2012, 04:11 PM

i just hope they do that black/white i've seen. That would more than likely convert me

dfox · September 6th, 2012, 04:12 PM

Repsol is awesome.

Reswob · September 6th, 2012, 04:12 PM

The Repsol paint job is definitely stretching it for this bike...

Well if you think that for the CBR250R I hate to tell you there's a Respol-livery option CBR125R with half the displacement

For me Honda has the industry wide monopoly on the technique and skills required to make just about any bike look absolutely boring.

REDCOMET · September 6th, 2012, 04:18 PM

this thread is blasphemy

NoSkillsMcSuckington · September 6th, 2012, 04:28 PM

Also desperately hoping we get this:

alex.s · September 6th, 2012, 04:47 PM

im going to go put a repsol paintjob on my 50cc honda cub clone.

Coolbpf · September 6th, 2012, 04:59 PM

Kawasaki has work ahead of them ^_^

choneofakind · September 6th, 2012, 05:24 PM

I like the orange wheels on the Repsol, that's it.

The solid red is a nice color. Looks more grown up than the version that had red and silver

But the 125 is closer to a true CBR than the ~~CBR~~ ~~VFR~~ dullville without panniers 250

Spot the odd one out

You were saying...

Old Lemon · September 6th, 2012, 06:07 PM

get these cibbers outta here

psych0hans · September 6th, 2012, 06:09 PM

I would love to do my ninjette like a repsol... Just saying...

Aufitt · September 6th, 2012, 06:15 PM

And the one colour they didnt change is Black.

Coz black is best

just like my 2011.

But the Tricolour is an improvement, and the red is a real red without the silver bits now.
No to the Repsol, looks like the cbr125 repsol.

Panda · September 6th, 2012, 09:26 PM

Cbr1000s in repsol livery look hot

Jono · September 6th, 2012, 10:18 PM

Thank god they did black wheels! It's about damn time. Looks 10x better.

I actually think they can still compete with the new ninjette. Well, depending on what the price of the new ninjette will be. I know right now at my local Honda dealership the cibbers are less than $3,900 before dealer fees. Pretty good deal if you ask me.

menikmati · September 6th, 2012, 10:23 PM

From the side and through pictures, that Repsol paint scheme looks pretty awesome to me. Although in person and from different angles it would be a different story.

Jono · September 6th, 2012, 10:26 PM

It's interesting that the Repsol scheme has a silver frame and swing arm.

I'll take the red or white!

Jiggles · September 6th, 2012, 11:26 PM

pfffffffff nice try honda

Lay down the crack pipe.

If all these 250's have is BNG then Honda has their work cut out for them to keep up with Kawasaki.

I agree mostly, they do have a few good looking bikes (VFR 800, CBR's w/ undertail exhaust). I actually like the look of the current CBR 1000 better than the ZX-10. Anybody else think the front of the 12' ZX-10 looks like a bull? no joke

I agree that the Repsol paint job on the CBR-250 is a bit of a stretch. It just isn't a very good looking bike to me (too scootery) although it does look better in person. Still nobody is mistaking it for a "SS" bike.

Wish they came in more colors than this. I'd love a blue or all white version. Definitely won't be upgrading as everything else looks the same. I absolutely looooooove the black wheels. Would go perfectly with my black bike.

Why don't you get them plasti dipped or powdercoated?

Thought about both. Just too darn lazy

to do it myself or even look up anyone that does them professionally here.

kevheads · November 28th, 2012, 08:15 PM

I'd ride this, makes it look better than the normal stock colors.

Jono · November 28th, 2012, 08:36 PM

I'd have to disagree. And I kinda like the CBR250R. But in no way shape or form does it deserve to wear the Repsol colors.

Eldiablo · November 28th, 2012, 08:41 PM

2012Rider · November 28th, 2012, 08:43 PM

Repsol paint job costs 400$ more...

NinjetteNewfie · November 29th, 2012, 04:46 AM

And even with the Repsol paint scheme, its still a butt ugly bike

LoneRonin · November 29th, 2012, 07:20 AM

Nicer paint jobs, same ugly ass bike...

In this case I agree because I'm a ninja 250 fan boy.

...but this is the same as you getting all weird and bashing on the FR-s for even being offered with an automatic. There's still a manual option!

btw, no amount of discount would get me to buy that car in automatic. I agree with you 100%

Hahaha what can I say I am weird like that. But that little cibber doesn't deserve to have that paint scheme.

Oh and I saw a BRZ on campus yesterday and I must say, I like it more than the FR-S. Yeah, they are pretty much the same car but that Subaru blue looks beautiful on it. Oh and it had a proper gear box!

choneofakind · November 29th, 2012, 09:06 AM

I bet the baby cibbers are still a hoot to ride though. I've never been on one.

Idk, I like the FR-s better. The front bumper is more my taste, and it's more simple looking all around.

Alienjoe · December 3rd, 2012, 10:32 AM

Proportions of the 250 are wierd. The front looks ok. It's just that damn overhang in the rear looks off to me somehow.

I love the Repsol scheme. I'm going to love it more when I buy my CBR 600 F3

backinthesaddleagain · December 3rd, 2012, 08:33 PM

a friend put a repsol 250 on hold

I could almost in vision pedals on that bike.

Numbersix · December 4th, 2012, 06:55 AM

Really? Ninjette owners are becoming displacement snobs? Seriously, think this one through...

Alienjoe · December 4th, 2012, 07:40 AM

My lawn mower is a 130cc. Sorry man but a 125cc bike is a little silly. Scooter? Yes. Motorcycle?? No. 250 is my lowest personally.

Then again a 125 may be fun as hell!! All I know is it wouldn't be me on one.
