Young Machine, the sole magazine responsible for successfully leaking out details of the R25/R3, Ninja 300 and the 400R/F/X in the past had earlier this year reported on Honda possibly reviving the inline-4 250RR from the yesteryear glory days of 20k rpm street going mad bikes. Similarly a news broke out about Kawasaki too planning to revive the i-4 counterpart in a rumored ZX-25RR/3R.
Now, Young Machine magazine claims to have uncovered that Honda will be displaying the 250RR at the Tokyo Motor Show 2015 that is due in October this year. The catch is that instead of the I-4 they had claimed in January, the bike is now said to be a twin(unsure if parallel or V-twin) belting out hp/torque figures in the same ballpark as of the R25/R3.
While the translation from the magazine is sketchy, it seems to quote that USD forks and Radially mounted brakes are somewhat confirmed, but the underbody exhaust design in the reference illustration has not been confirmed. Bike will sport Led lights all around
The project was codenamed "K24".
P.S: Image pictured in attachment is only an artist's illustration and not the actual design of the bike. Other images were cut from the magazine from various sources.
