Honda CBR models are a series of motorcycles that have a sports-oriented feel. Some of these motorcycles are marketed as "Race Replicas". Race Replicas are those motorcycles that mimic the look and feel of race motorcycles with a lesser degree of performance. The motorcycles on the CBR series have inline engines with the exception of the CBR 125 and CBR 150 that have single cylinders. A less sports-oriented group of motorcycles that have inline engines make up Honda's CB Series. Below is a list of a few models found on Honda's CBR series:
Honda CBR 125 - this model is for an entry level sportsman and is a 125cc, 4 stroke motorbike. It debuted on the market in 2004 and since then, it has not been modified till 2007. Since its release, it has been an extremely popular motorcycle for Honda and by 2005 it has become UK's best selling motorcycle. In 2007, the CBR 125 received radical changes that made it look like the CBR1000RR Fireblade. The color scheme was also modified in 2007.
Honda CBR 250 - this bike belongs to a series that was produced between 1986 and 1996. They are lightweight 4 cylinders, 4 stroke, and 6 gear bike. This model was also capable of revving up to 18,500 rpm.
