The Honda CB250N Super Dream was a standard motorcycle part of the CB series in Honda's range that had its debut in 1978 and intended as a successor to the CB250T Dream, but with a slightly different style and minor changes.
The changes that differentiated the CB250N from the CB250T included a more angular fuel tank and side covers, a different seat design, and a new instrument panel that featured a tachometer and a fuel gauge.
It also was the best-selling motorcycle in the UK market, with over 17,000 units sold in 1980 alone, while its popularity waned along with other 250cc bikes until 1983 when the maximum size of learner machines dropped to 125cc.
The Super Dream model came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a chromed dual exhaust system, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, an analog instrument panel, a round headlight with a chrome ring, cast aluminum wheels with black spokes, and a black-finished steel frame.
For suspension, the bike packed a telescopic fork on the front with 115 mm of wheel travel and preload-adjustable dual shock absorbers on the rear with 65 mm of wheel travel, while the stopping power was handled by a single 273 mm disc with a hydraulic caliper on the front wheel and a 160 mm drum braking unit on the rear.
As for power, the 1980 Honda CB250N Super Dream took its thrust from a 249cc four-stroke parallel-twin air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 27 hp at 10,000 rpm and 20 Nm (15 lb-ft) of torque available at 8,500 rpm.
