Concept model
The basis for the CBR250RR was Honda's Light Weight Super Sports Concept that was shown at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. The concept bike had a parallel-twin engine that redlined at 14,000 rpm. Honda said that, "attention to detail in functional components give the Light Weight Super Sports Concept a quality beyond its class, indicating the design direction of Honda's next generation lightweight super sports models."[12]
Racing
As of 2017, the CBR250RR has participated in Asia Road Racing Championship at Asia Production 250cc (AP250) class. The bike produces more than 40 hp (30 kW) and weighs 135 kg (298 lb).[13] It won the championship in its debut season as well as the following year.[14] The CBR250RR has also been raced in the Indonesian Indospeed Race Series championship.
