With the recent hot weather, my normal parking spot turned into play-dough, and I didn't realize it until 45min later when I heard my bike fall onto the pavement. Thankfully, no damage to the plastics, only some scratching on the side mirror and blinker.

Anyways, the major damage is that my clutch lever is bent, and I'm hoping that just needs to be replaced. It is either the actual lever is bent, somewhere where it meets the pivot is misaligned, or both are damaged.

Does anybody have any info on replacement levers that actually fit the CBR 250r , maybe a link on where I can purchase one? Or does anybody know how I can possibly bend the lever back into shape?

Been there, luckily not with the Cbr, but I parked mine in dirt that became mud. Broke the clutch lever and got the left side all muddy. Anyway, I believe this is what you're looking for.

Unless you think it's time for a set of aftermarket brake/clutch levers...

If you live in SoCal Bert's Mega Mall can get you any parts like that cheap. I had a crash on oil and the break lever was all bent outta shape along with the handle bar end scuffed (rest of the damage negligible or on the yoshi frame slider - awesome). The bar end was $3 and the break lever $9....sweet deal. Im sure you can get the clutch lever for under $10 and if they dont already have it in stock they will order it next day. For everything else, Bert's sucks.

don't bother trying to bend it back, it will only snap in two. just wait until you get the new lever before trying anything otherwise the lever could snap in the wrong spot and render the bike unrideable.

It depends upon how much it's bent. My wife dropped her bike similarly and since I was unsure how to fix it, I took it to the dealer. He took a long box wrench that was big enough to fit over the end of the lever and just levered it back into place. No problems with it 500 miles later. No charge from the dealer, btw.

clutch lever $12 here in Aus, same as VTR250 and many other hondas so aftermarket replacements (copies) avail.
I'd imagine genuine in the USa would be similar price.

Same thing happened to me a while back. I went to the local dealer, and had them order a replacement clutch lever. Cost me $8 and picked it up 3 days later. Install was a breeze, there's quite a few tutorials on how to do it.

skip to 4:22 and it shows you how to change out the clutch lever and whether you get the OEM replacement or some after market levers the install should be the same.
