The Jade was Honda's early-1990s naked road bike built from the CBR250RR, using a detuned version of its screaming 16-valve inline-four in a steel double-cradle frame with a single front disc, centre stand and a larger tank. Retro touches such as round analogue dials and a chrome exhaust gave it a classic look; it was replaced by the Hornet 250 in 1996.
