HONDACB250 1971 - 1972

　　The Honda CB250 was a motorcycle part of the CB series in Honda's range that came as a successor to the CB72 model and in a more western traditional look but still offering above-average performance.

　　In 1968, the CB250 made its way on the market as a completely new development that featured knee pads on the tank, a more modern design compared to the previous model, and a redesigned engine, transmission, frame, and fork.

　　In 1972, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB250, a standard machine that didn't receive any significant changes over the years, except for the 1970 model that introduced a five-speed manual transmission.

　　The 1972 model came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a one-piece dual seat, wire-spoked wheels, a wide handlebar, a dual exhaust system, an analog instrument cluster, a center stand, a round headlight, and a black steel frame.

　　The bike’s suspension was handled by a telescopic fork on the front and preload-adjustable dual shock absorbers on the rear, while the stopping power was achieved by a drum braking system both front and rear.

　　In the performance department, the 1972 Honda CB250 took its thrust from a 249cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 30 hp with maximum strength at 10,500 rpm and 21 Nm (16 lb-ft) of torque available at 9,500 rpm.
