    I'm looking to "upgrade" the exhaust on my 86 250. I know everyone says keep it stock but I'm not looking for power I'm just looking for better sound. On most bikes I've had if you upgrade the exhaust, the air filter is upgraded with it. BUT I see everyone saying to keep the air filter stock or...

    So, my bike runs perfect and doesn't backfire, but I don't think it's going as fast as it should in 5th gear. I'm only 140lb and on a flat road I've only gotten my bike up to 62mph and I'm not sure if I can get any more speed out of it. I have two factors I think could be causing it which is no...

    Hey guys! I have modded my 250 into 280cc and I am wearing 150/90/15 rear tire with 14t front and 33t rear sprocket! Any idea how can I give it some more top speed? I know that bigger tire is "equal" to smaller back sprocket, so bigger top speed, but in combination with bigger motor it feels if...

    Hello! I scored an old, somewhat rusty and neglected 2002 Rebel CMX250 with less than 3k miles. She needs some love and some parts but I'm looking forward to helping her rise from the ashes of her neglected past. Thanks to this forum, I feel confident in fixing the issues. I have a mechanic...

    Hey all! I’m wanting to install an exhaust cutoff valve on my 2009 Honda Rebel 250. The headers and pipes are very small and I can’t find anything to fit. I have 2 main questions 1) Has anyone found something that might fit? 2) Would I be able to put it on the muffler? It becomes a lot bigger...

    Hello everyone, just joined. Today I let my brother use my bike and it bogged out over 45 mph and died every time reaching a mile. I just changed the spark plugs, checked oil (like new fluid), changed air filter with OEM Honda filter. From reading I’ve seen these carbs tend to get dirty(I’m...

    Hello. After about 2 years of lurking the forums, I figured I'd finally show my face around here and make a post about my 2001 Cmx250. Started off as my first bike, like many people. Purchased for 800$ not running and and original owner even towed it out to me. Got the bike running Started to...
  10. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    Hello all, I’ve used this forum as a guest for a long time and I’d first like to thank all of you for the help y’all have provided throughout the years. I’ve recently purchased 2006 250 and have (strictly cosmetically) modded my bike to fit the bobber style. Motor and carburetor have remained...
  11. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    A couple days ago my exhaust detached from the head, and I'm not really sure why. The acorn nuts on the left side of the bike came undone, and lost my gasket and couplings to the highway. The lead technician at our shop said that the acorn nuts that are OEM are generally just for looks, and...

    Hey, I just bought a 2008 Rebel 250 about a week and a half ago with 4,800 miles and all the Blue Collar Bobber kits for about $2,500. I ended up having to wrap the headers / exhaust with fiberglass exhaust wrap because it still has the original tires, and the front tire was kicking some...

    My CMX250 Gas tube appears to have been pinched and the gas leaked out (It appears a car bumped my bike sideways while parking, not really sure how it happened). Any suggestions on the fix? Can I just order a clamp and reconnect the tube up? Separately, the side-stand is seriously bent (again...

    Posting my research shopping for stock tires. No modifications. Contribute to this post and I may edit below to be more complete. ie) Are the specs the same for 1996 - 2016? Tire Specs from Rebel 250 Manual: Front 3.00 - 18 47P (I have seen this represented as 90/90 - 18, too) Rear 130/90...
