HONDA CMX250C Rebel (2005-2006) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Honda CMX250 was a cruiser-style motorcycle part of the CM series that comprised models with different engine displacements, shapes, and sizes. The bike was also known as the Rebel 250 or the Honda Peronist.

The machine was powered by the same powerplant as the Honda Nighthawk 250 standard model and was manufactured on and off between 1985 to 1987, 1996 to 1997, and 1999 to 2016.

Over its production years, the bike didn't feature any significant modifications and packed the same suspension, braking system, and engine. Also, the model was commonly used by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation as a certified rider-training machine.

In 2006, Honda released the CMX250C Rebel, the smallest cruiser in Honda's range that delivered smooth engine performance and an excellent riding experience with its easy-shifting five-speed manual transmission.

The 2006 machine came in a new Pearl White color scheme. Besides that, the bike was similar to previous models, with a 33 mm fork handling the front suspension and dual shock absorbers operating the rear-end suspension.

Also, the bike was fitted with the same braking system as its predecessors, including a dual-piston caliper with a 240 mm disc on the front and a 230 mm rod-operated drum unit handling the rear-end suspension.

For power, the 2006 Honda CMX250C Rebel packed the same 234cc air-cooled parallel twin-cylinder engine as the previous models, delivering an output power of 19 hp with maximum strength at 8,250 rpm and 19 Nm (14 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm.
