This motorcycle is good for a top speed close to 160 kph and also comes with a costlier ABS variant. To put things into perspective, the Kawasaki Ninja, which costs double that of the Honda CBR250R could muster close to 1,000 units after being on sale for a full one year. On the other hand, the 1.5 Lakh Rupee CBR250R by managing to surpass the Ninja’s yearly sale in under one month only underscores the huge market that exists for good motorcycles under the INR 2 Lakh mark, which in other words is the new 1 lakh mental barrier that people previously used to have when they went motorcycle shopping.
