Honda CBR250R Review : Still relevant in 2020!

To all CBR owners in Bangalore can you suggest few FNGs where I could potentially service ?

Thank you guys for your valuable suggestions. After 6 months of searching I have shortlisted 3 Used bikes. Now the hard part is to pick one

- 2012 CBR 250R ABS (27000kms , 85K)
2nd owner and well maintained. Only problem is that it is 500kms away from my place.

- FZ25 (30,250kms, 88K)
1st owner. Nothing special it has all the service records and well maintained

- 2017 Dominar 400 (16596kms, 1.3L)
First owner and near my place. Price is little high but parents are pushing me to go for it.

Heart says CBR but Mind says FZ25
Parents say Dominar

My vote goes for the FZ25 as it is first owner, definitely much newer than the 2012 CBR and well maintained with proof. Test ride it.

Not from Bangalore but have seen many on teamBHP, xbhp forums vouch for Highlander, Bangalore for their service. Specially for CBR. Guess one of the Honda trained mechanic works there. But this from few years ago. Not sure how it is now.

Highlander in HSR as suggested above. Karthik, the Honda expert who previously worked with Honda, works there.

Finally Decided to go ahead with a 2019 Dominar 400 UG which had done 10000 kms. The itch to buy CBR is still there. When i thought about it practically I felt it's better to go for a newer bike. But I am sure I will buy a CBR250R in the future
