The CB250T replaced the long-running CB250G in 1977 as the small sister of the CB400T Dream / Hawk. It brought a new three-valve parallel twin, electronic ignition, Comstar wheels and better rear shocks, giving more power and less maintenance than before. It was offered in the UK for learner riders, but its height and weight made it less popular there than Honda hoped.
