12 April 2013 - Two years since it shot to fame as Australia's favourite LAMS approved motorcycle,\* Honda's CBR250R has been announced to sport three stylish new colour schemes for 2013; Tri-Colour, Red and Black.

Critics and riders alike fell in love with the economy and extreme versatility of this sporty little ride thanks to timeless CBR qualities of high performance, intuitive handling dynamics and unrivalled ease of use.

Available in Honda Dealerships nationally this month, the new CBR250R in Tri-Colour, Black and Red will retain its competitive MLP of just $5,510 (Standard) and $6,010 (ABS).

Powered by an incredibly efficient 249cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine which features a sophisticated four-valve, DOHC cylinder head, PGM-FI fuel injection and more, the CBR250R is a dependable lightweight machine that delivers nimble handling, a broad spread of easily accessible power, excellent fuel efficiency and low operating costs.

The CBR250R's riding position is fundamental to its versatility, ensuring comfort and control even when riding two-up. The sophisticated ergonomics are underlined by its multi-function digital instruments, which display all of the information the rider needs at a glance and a generous storage area under the pillion seat adds to the CBR250R's practicality.

For secure braking in all conditions, Honda's Combined Antilock Braking System (C-ABS) is offered as an option.

Unmistakably Supersports-inspired in its design, the aggressively sculpted fairing of the CBR250R is complemented by the new 2013 Tri-Colour, Black and Red Colour schemes.

See your Honda Dealer and find out why this exciting small-capacity sportsbike and practical all-rounder is an Aussie favourite.
