Your review is 💯 spot on. I live in Australia 🇦🇺. My CBR250RR is a 1993 MC22 in Lucky Strike livery. My brother has a MC22 in Rothmans Honda Livery. Both mint condition. They are head turners. Awesome weekend theraphy 😂

Honda rs 125r nx4 is better bike but not street legal. it is old gp 3 class 2 stroke light little beast with 45hp and 70 kilos only.In USA in some countries you could prepare it for road on A2 licence.

LOL, no manufacturers are sending these bikes over. They are being imported because they are not being raced anymore. Most everyone that gets to our shores has been raced, odometer has been disconnected for the most part, and had bodywork replaced to make it look like new. Buyer definitely beware!!!!

If you're looking for something with more of a guarantee of reliability, import an Austraila-delivered one. They are slightly more restricted than the JDM ones (nothing soldering a resistor between the TAC and CDI can't fix) but there's actually more here than in Japan (sold as AU delivered for 1997-2002). It'll be easyer to find a vehicle history in English. We also have a lot of Japanese grey imports for bikes made before 1997 as well, Including the ealyer MC19. Either way My 1992 MC22 which has definitely been tracked and crashed is still reliable enough for me to daily with almost an 2 hours of riding each day. By far one of the greatest bikes ever made.

There’s a lot of nice ones here in Japan, but the people who have them take care of them.

personally i think the 45hp limit is perfect because this bike is just under the legal limit for an A2 license in europe

The cbr250rr old school screaming little thing is quite a traffic racer, although annoying for people, it is in fact very good bike. YOU WONT LOOSE YOUR LICENCE riding it, and I think, who buy this bike, it is all about particular F1 sound of that engine.

@@stojandimovski6597 the annoyance of people depends on where you live. Here in greece most of the population has a slight interest in bikes and there are A LOT of bikes on the road here.

I’m glad that the manufacturers are starting to send smaller bikes over now. We did miss out back then only getting small twins. I’ll test ride all the small bikes for you Abhi at 5/2 it would be a nice break from what I normally ride

@2strokerides Жыл бұрын

Something aint right here. The MC22 has a redline on the dash of 19k rpm and the spark will cut at 20k. The MC19 has a redline of 18k and spark will cut at 19k just like this dash shows. Seems like a MC19 dash has been mounted on this MC22???

there's a few different spec of mc22, some are redline at 19k some at 18k. i've owned one of each, both were twin disc mc22 (NOT MC19) but different years. either spec is an ideal "baby's first sports bike". no they aren't quick in a straight line, but they feel like a sports bike instead of some agricultural twin cylinder shopping trolley. They do all the small sports bike things, make sports bike noises, etc. just with a noob friendly power level. They handle very, very nicely; very stable mid corner, quick tip in, etc. much beyond 16k indicated on the tach is useless over-rev, the sweet spot is somewhere between 10k and 16k rpm indicated. and yes the tach lies a bit :)

This is the second USA import mc22 that ive seen with a swapped out cluster from a mc19. Mc22 should show redline at 19,000 not 18,000. I guess they just switch it out with low km ones. Id be interested to know if the bodywork is genuine or copy...

To make a raced bike road legal only involves putting the lights back on, replacing slicks to DOT tires, and you can get a full set of brand new bodywork from China for about $400. Pretty much it, race a bike till your done with it, turn it back to streetability to recoup your money. Whynot?
