Honda’s entry level sportsbike gets the full Yoshimura treatment.

Introduced in 2011 Honda’s brand new CBR250R has proved a hit for those getting into motorcycling, and its 249cc single cylinder engine is fun and frugal. In standard form power output is approx. 7bhp shy of the 33bhp restriction for category ‘A’ licence holders.

Yoshimura have developed a new R-77J Street Sport slip-on end can to do just that. Both Stainless Steel End Cap and Carbon End Cap versions will be available in three sleeve versions; Stainless, Titanium and Metal Magic and features a removable dB-Killer baffle. Peak power and torque are improved, with a significant weight saving over stock.
