30 November 2012 - The championship credentials of the Moriwaki livery will adorn Honda's popular CBR250R just in time for Christmas. Unveiled at the Australian Motorcycle Expo in Melbourne last week, the Limited Edition Moriwaki CBR250R will be racing into Honda Dealerships in December 2012.

Originally a developer of exhaust systems, Moriwaki Engineering has grown to become a producer of racing machines and boasts the discovery of a string of champions including Wayne Gardner. The striking colours of the Moriwaki brand will complement the unique bodywork of the CBR250R.

Shortly after its Australian release in March last year, Honda's CBR250R shot to fame as Australia's most popular motorcycle\*, riders of all ability levels fell in love with the economy and extreme versatility of this sporty little ride.

Powered by an incredibly efficient 249cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine which features a sophisticated four-valve, DOHC cylinder head, PGM-FI fuel injection and more, the CBR250R is a dependable lightweight machine that delivers nimble handling, a broad spread of easily accessible power, excellent fuel efficiency and low operating costs.

With a low seat height, light weight and slim styling the CBR250R is perfect for a daily commute, quick trips around town or longer weekend trips. Leading the way in safety technology, the Limited Edition Moriwaki CBR250R will be available with the option of Combined ABS allowing riders to stop with confidence in all conditions.

Boosting the appeal of this CBR250R will be a Limited Edition Moriwaki Exhaust. This striking performance exhaust must be reserved for track use only.

With a competitive price of $5,710 for the standard and $6,220 for the ABS variant (MLRP) the Limited Edition Moriwaki CBR250Rs are sure to race out of dealership doors.
