The Honda CBF250 was a half-faired motorcycle manufactured from 2004 until 2015, also known as the CBX250 Twister in South America, Argentina, Mexico, and South Africa. The bike replaced the CBX200 Strada, which ended its production in 2002.
Over its production years until 2015, the Honda CBF250 carried minor updates, such as graphics and color changes, remaining similar to earlier models. Overall, the CBF250 was a reliable and affordable machine with a compact size, fuel efficiency, and comfortable riding that made it a popular choice among beginner and experienced riders.
The bike came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a round headlight with a chromed ring, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a blacked-out exhaust system with a chromed muffler, twin instrument panels, and cast aluminum wheels.
For suspension, the bike packed a telescopic fork on the front and a single shock absorber on the rear for optimum suspension performance, while the stopping power was generated by a single 276 mm disc squeezed by a two-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 180 mm drum unit on the rear.
In the power department, the Honda CBF250 had its heartbeat set by a 249cc four-stroke single-cylinder air/oil-cooled engine fed by a carburetor and delivered an output power of 24 hp with maximum strength at 8,000 rpm and 24 Nm (18 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,000 rpm.
