The CBR250 series of motorcycles was produced by Honda between 1986 and 1996. This is a lightweight sport bike having a six-speed gearbox and a 250 cc (15 cu in), four-cylinder, four-stroke engine capable of revving approximately 19,000 rpm. In 2011, Honda introduced the completely new CBR250R with a lower-revving, single-cylinder engine which revs as much as 10,500 rpm, stated in Thailand and marketed worldwide.

Initially these bikes were only sold new in Japan, and later the CBR250RR was sold new australia wide. Nevertheless they are located in any country worldwide. In countries that are fitted with a 250 cc learner capacity limit, the CBR250RR is just about the best 4-stroke bikes a learner is permitted to ride.[citation needed] The CBR250RR has six gears, and revs just below 9,000 rpm at 100 km/h (62 mph). The engine uses gear-driven cams.

The suspension for the bike was basic with non-adjustable front forks along with a rear monoshock with adjustment for preload only.

The CBR250RR(R) is recognized as the 'tri-colour' simply because that the majority of (and not all) on the official bikes were only available in that one colour pallette. Besides the engine restrictions, this model had several additional differences to its predecessors (L & N models). The bike had stronger low-beam headlights coupled to your new relay which has been automatically deactivated from the start/crank button within the handlebar. This changed the pinout on the switchgear and kill-switch. The carburettor rubber boots were smaller around the CBR250RR(R) compared to the imports.
