Honda CBR 250R costs रु 10,000 less ex-showroom.CBR 250R has 0.7 PS more power.

The STD variant offers the iconic CBR styling at a lower price point but is hard to recommend due to the lack of safety tech. It suits enthusiasts on a budget who prioritize the smooth DOHC engine over modern safety features.

Pros
Ultra-refined DOHC engine suitable for long-distance touring
Timeless VFR-inspired sports-tourer aesthetics
Accessible seat height for shorter riders
Cons
Lacks ABS, which is dangerous for a 250cc performance bike
Outdated halogen lighting and semi-digital console
Low ground clearance for Nepali speed bumps
As of 11 Sept 2026
Choose the Royal Enfield Scram 440 if
You prefer its body style, brand or dealer near you — the numbers are close.

Better value-focused variant; spoke wheels and tube tyres suit light trail use but add puncture hassle. Ideal for riders wanting affordable access to the 443 cc platform and retro scrambler looks without paying extra for alloys.

Pros
Lowest entry price into Royal Enfield’s new 443 cc platform in Nepal.
Wire-spoke wheels and tube tyres offer authentic scrambler look and durability off-road.
Stiffened frame allows fitting a touring top box, improving practicality.
Dual-channel ABS and LED headlamp add basic but important safety and usability.
Cons
Tube-type tyres make puncture repairs harder than tubeless on Nepali highways.
Feature set is spartan versus rivals; no ride modes, traction control or connectivity.
Kerb weight near 200 kg may intimidate new riders at low speeds.
