What is it about the CBR250R that has you wanting one? For me, being an owner of a Honda CBR1000RR already, I want to keep it in the family and I've always had good luck with Honda products. Not to mention the single cylinder should provide more torque than the Ninja 250, which is what I really want on the streets anyway.

Why do I want a CBR? Because the mofo is 4 grand brand new and does everything I need it to! (Rhyming not intentional haha)

Plus, from even close up it looks JUST like a regular sport bike. The black looks great, I'm really glad I got that instead of the silver/red.

If you have the money to buy a race bike and go the track frequently, you probably also have the money to buy this bike with it which seems better for commuting anyway.

So far I've put 40 miles on it and I'm loving it... My only complaint is the muffler but hopefully new slip ons will become available soon.

It rides really well... A little choppy if you aren't feathering the the clutch, but otherwise very smooth. You can turn really sharply, but I haven't pushed it much with the new tires. The one thing I've noticed is that starting it up isn't perfect, I've had to try several times on occasion to turn it on. The black looks sexy and when I had it next to a few 600's the only really obvious difference was the back tire and larger frame.
