At the heart of the 2014 Honda CBR250R sport motorcycle, Honda features a 249.6 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 34.9 HP (25.5 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22.9 Nm (16.9 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 139.8 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the CBR250R measures 165 kg (364 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.21 HP/kg (4.73 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,369 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.05 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 426 km (265 miles) between fill-ups.
