Is not their a person from Thai Honda on this forum that could give us some solid feedback on the situation? I am practically having wet dreams about getting my new ABS red CBR250r.

Did anyone read John Burn's write up in April's CycleWorld? He really liked it & while admitting the Ninja was a tick faster, the Honda "just plain works better everywhere". He made it sound awesome & made me even taste it more. I want mine.

Sport Rider not so positive

Sport Rider"s article on the same subject seemed to give the nod to Kaw so much I think Kaw paid them off. Saying crap like when you outgrow the Honda the Kaw would have more to offer.

I guess if you're interested in tempting the law doing 100+ mph, Kaw is your bike. I prefer to go fast w/o sounding like I'm racing; draws less heat.

Was at my dealer yesterday & I asked if they had any idea when The CBR250's would come in & they had NO IDEA. NOT a good sign. My wife says "that will give you more time to save the $$" Almost optimistic. I took my CM450c out for a nice ride today testing a path of back roads to get to work. Takes one hour to do the 35 mile journey. It takes nearly the same time & just as many miles to get there daily in my RAV4 on the expressways but my 450 will use 1/3 the fuel & be one *** of a lot more fun. I can't wait to do it on my new CBR250r.

Noise

By not sounding like "racing" I meant not revving 10K to launch & generally each shift of each gear. I would like one of those exhausts that lower the pitch & makes that thumper sound.

Those cans don't say "high heat". You might be in trouble.
