July 25 2016 - 7:46PM
JCN Newswire (English)
PT Astra Honda Motor, Honda's joint venture company in Indonesia
for motorcycle production and sales, announced the world premiere
of the "CBR250RR," an all-new 250cc sports model motorcycle.
The CBR250RR will be manufactured in its major market, Indonesia,
making it the largest displacement Honda motorcycle to be
manufactured in the country. Honda plans to begin sales of the
all-new sports model in Indonesia by the end of 2016.
Newly Developed Straight-twin Engine
The CBR250RR is powered by a newly developed water-cooled 4-stroke
4-valve straight-twin DOHC 250cc engine, which aims for
class-leading output performance. The engine is easy to handle for
urban riding, while it is just as comfortable on the circuit, with
smooth output characteristics across the entire revrange. In
addition, its Throttle-by-Wire (TBW) system and selectable 3-way
engine mode settings allow the rider to tap into its linear power
output at will, for a superior, solid acceleration.
Unique Styling presenting Strong and Fast Appearance
The CBR250RR's front face inherits the CBR series' identity with
its dual-LED headlights, enhancing its strong, fast and exciting
image. The sharp wedge-shape leading from its low, long nose to its
high, acute tail inspire awe in the eyes of the onlooker.
Newly Developed Frame and Suspension
The CBR250RR's newly designed steel pipe truss frame realizes both
strength and flexibility. Its swing arms are Aluminum gull arms,
and with the right-side swing arm shaped to reduce exhaust pipe
extrusion, allows the bike to be slimmer, while retaining bank
angle. The suspension features high rigidity inverted forks for the
front, and Pro-link suspension featuring 5-step preload for the
rear. For the brakes, front and rear ABS is available (for the ABS
model). Large 310mm diameter (front) and 240mm diameter (rear) wave
discs provide outstanding stopping-power.
The CBR250RR was first publicly introduced as a concept model, the
"Light Weight Super Sports Concept" at the 44th Tokyo Motor Show
last year, catching the attention of many motorcycle fans.
Honda is planning to release the CBR250RR in Japan at a later
date.
