"Honda set out to build a worthy successor to the
hugely versatile, popular and successful original CBR600F. On the evidence
do far, that's exactly what they've done, and at a competitive price of
£7055 on the road. In fact, the CBR seems so capable and such good value
that it makes me wonder why Honda hasn't had a model like this in its range
all along.
Whatever the reason, the timing of the CBR600F's return is
excellent and the verdict is clear: welcome back!"
"The CBR250R is less of a sports bike than its name and
racy styling suggest, but it's a capable little machine and at that price
it looks like outstanding value."
"Honda has done well in revitalising its smallest
capacity sports bike with a fresh set of clothes that gives it some welcome
additional credibility in the hotly contested 125cc sports bike market. A
head-to-head test would probably show the Yam still having a slight edge in
performance and glamour, but for most riders the Honda's price advantage
will be hard to ignore."
