Hi all,
I've been using the Karizma R 2012 edition and would like to switch to the Honda CBR250R ABS version to experience something different. Dealers here in Mumbai say it's out of production & I really don't mind going in for a used one.
However, since it's a used bike I have some questions -
There's a 2011 bike that has crossed 35K kms up for sale. It's a first owner bike & he's quoting 80k. Is it worth it?
What are the main things I should be looking out for a used CBR? Any common checks to perform. I would like to purchase something that has clocked less than 15 - 20K KMS and manufactured in 2012. How much should I quote for one should I come across something similar?
Lastly & most importantly, I've heard spares are costly and also scarcely available. Will it be an issue moving forward considering there's a 300R in the works and for a release this year?
Your advise here would definitely help me make the right moves.
Cheers,
Jude
