The Honda CB250 was a standard motorcycle part of the CB series in Honda's range that came as a successor to the CB72 machine and lost two hp due to a noise optimization procedure and was set in motion by a four-speed manual transmission.

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 1970, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB250, which compared to the CB72, featured a wider teardrop-shaped tank with Honda lettering, a lower seating position, straight-up cylinders, the chain drive was moved to the left, and two separate housings for the instrument cluster.

In addition, the bike came with standard features, such as a one-piece seat, a chromed dual exhaust system, a wide handlebar, wire-spoked wheels, an analog instrument panel, a center stand, a round headlight, and a blacked-out steel frame.

In the performance department, the 1970 Honda CB250 had at its core a 249cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine fitted with Keihin carburetors that helped deliver 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.
