HONDACB250 Nighthawk 2003 - 2004

　　The Honda CB250SC Nighthawk was a standard motorcycle part of the CB series, manufactured in 1991 and powered by a 234cc air-cooled parallel-twin engine. The bike packed the engine from the 1985-1987 CMX250 Rebel with new wiring, new components, a larger carburetor, a new valve cover, and a reshaped cylinder head.

　　The Nighthawk was a lightweight, maneuverable, inexpensive, and easy-to-maintain motorcycle, also used by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) motorcycle training. With its small size and low seat height, the bike was popular amongst riders of smaller stature.

　　Compared to the Honda Rebel 250, which offered similar specifications, the CB250 Nighthawk was considered a standard street motorcycle for urban street use.

　　In 2004, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB250SC Nighthawk, a nifty all-rounder machine perfect for beginner riders, with agile spirit and good maneuverability, capable of slicing through city traffic but also reaching highway speeds.

　　Some standard features of the bike included a chromed dual exhaust system, a wide handlebar, a one-piece dual seat, a round headlight with a chromed ring, a black-finished steel frame, and wire-spoked wheels.

　　As for performance, the 2004 Honda CB250SC Nighthawk packed at its core a 239cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine fed by two Keihin carburetors that helped deliver an output power of 20 hp with maximum strength at 9,000 rpm and 18 Nm (13 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,500 rpm.
