HONDA CBR250R ABS (2012-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Honda CBR250 ABS was released in 2013 by the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer with the additional Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) safety feature for those riders that needed a safer braking performance on hard braking or slippery surfaces.

Also, the model featured the same changes as the standard model, which included a new black exhaust cover, black wheels, and new colors such as Repsol, Pearl White/Blue/Red, and Red and Black.

With a layered style fairing, the CBR250R ABS bodywork was designed for both style and functionality, with the airflow carefully routed for engine cooling and rider comfort, while offering a unique sports bike appearance.

The bike was built around a diamond-shaped twin-spar steel frame that featured a 37 mm telescopic fork on the front and a Pro-Link monoshock absorber on the rear that offered great handling and suspension performance.

As for braking performance, the bike packed a 296 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 220 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, which provided strong stopping power.

In the power department, the 2013 Honda CBR250R ABS had its soul brought to life by a 249cc four-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled fuel-injected engine that delivered an output power of 26 hp with maximum strength at 8,500 rpm and 23 Nm (17 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,750 rpm.
