I've had my 2012 CBR250RA for the past 5 years. Have not been riding the bike for a year or so and it wont start. Just replaced the battery but that won't get it going. Probably fuel pump failure and rust in tank. Cost of OEM parts alone comes out to around $500 (not including labor).
Thinking whether to spend the money to get it fixed by the dealer or to trade it as is for an upgrade. Not sure what I would get in trade for the bike with 4000 miles in current condition.
What options do I have now for an upgrade? I just walked in to the dealership this weekend after a few years to see what they got to offer and don't see much in stock as it used to be 5 years back. It is Southern Honda Motorsports, the largest dealership in the south east. Don't know what honda is going to announce in October but the dealership is running a big clearance event for everything in current stock.
I'm not ready for a super sport yet. So was interested in a bike in the 500, 650 or 700cc range. What options do I have? Or do I need to wait until October to see what Honda is releasing?
