“When what you are deeply passionate about, what you can be best in the world at and what drives your economic engine come together, not only does your work move toward greatness, but so does your life. For, in the end, it is impossible to have a great life unless it is a meaningful life. And it is very difficult to have a meaningful life without meaningful work. Perhaps, then, you might gain that rare tranquility that comes from knowing that you’ve had a hand in creating something of intrinsic excellence that makes a contribution. Indeed, you might even gain that deepest of all satisfactions: knowing that your short time here on this earth has been well spent, and that it mattered.”

2011 Honda CBR 250R deliveries delayed in India

Well, it's not good new for the expecting 2011 Honda CBR 250 owners in India. Previously, the official Honda India website stated that the deliveries would begin from 14th April, 2011. But the latest is, that the deliveries have been delayed and would being by end of April. That's a massive jump of almost two weeks!!

There can be a million reasons for the delay, but nothing has been officially said about it. But for a motorcycle that's being completely made in India, to be exported out, that's pretty strange.

With the humungous bookings this bike has seen in India since 1st January, 2011, the Production Line must have been in over clocking mode, but still there should have been a strategy in place. But guess it's nothing but a bit more wait before those 2000+ expecting riders get to crank their dream.

Best of Luck to all from ThrottleQuest.com

Scooters like the Activa has got a 6-7 month waiting period, therefore this delay is not surprising

I hope that 2 Weeks remain 2 weeks ! Honda should not underestimate the Indian customer and take him for a ride otherwise the market for this segment has just been openened by them and the Yamahas and Suzukis will spring a surprise on them

@Gautam,

Fingers crossed on the commencement of the deliveries!! Pitty that Honda has not allowed even the media to have a go with the CBR 250R in India, while in far Europe, the press has already tasted it!!
