The CB Two Fifty was the UK version of Honda's 234 cc Nighthawk 250 twin, fitted with a front disc brake and alloy wheels. Reviewers saw it as honest, frugal transport rather than an exciting motorcycle, closer in spirit to Honda's Benly commuters than to the earlier CB250N Superdream whose name it echoed.
