In 1978, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB250T Dream, a standard motorcycle part of the CB series, manufactured by Honda from 1977, known for its reliability and fuel efficiency with the identical CB400T as a companion.
The CB250T Dream came as a replacement for the CB72 and packed standard features, such as lightweight cast aluminum wheels, a chromed dual exhaust system with the mufflers mounted on each side, a dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a wide handlebar, a blacked-out steel frame, an analog instrument panel, and a side stand.
In essence, the Honda CB250T was an affordable and practical machine that provided great reliability for those riders who didn't need a lot of power for daily routes or longer journeys.
For suspension, the bike packed a telescopic fork on the front and dual shock absorbers on the rear that offered optimum suspension performance, while the braking performance was handled by a single disc squeezed by a hydraulic caliper on the front wheel and a drum braking unit on the rear wheel that provided optimum stopping power.
In the performance department, the 1978 Honda CB250T Dream had its soul brought to life by a 249cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 17 hp with maximum strength at 8,500 rpm.
