The Honda CB250 superseded the Japanese manufacturer's hugely successful CB72 quarter-litre twin when it arrived in 1968. Although retaining its predecessor's basic architecture, being an air-cooled single-overhead-camshaft design, the new engine was styled differently, with cylinders virtually upright, and went into a new tubular cradle frame that replaced the earlier spine type. In addition, there were now five speeds in the gearbox plus a powerful twin-leading-shoe front brake, and with a claimed 30bhp on tap at 10,250rpm, the new CB250 was good for a top speed of around 90mph. Benefiting from new spark plugs, ignition points and condenser, this CB250 was last run in May of this year. Finished in purple/black, the machine is offered with keys, expired MoTs, sundry bills, and a V5C registration document. A total of 17,332 miles is currently displayed on the odometer.
