1980 Honda CB250N Super Dream, 249cc. Registration number JRW 273V. Frame number JHMCB250N 2104572. Engine number (see text) CB250N E 2027160.
The CB250N Super Dream was the latest in a long line of quarter-litre sports twins from Honda when it arrived in the late 1970's. A worldwide sales success, the CB250N featured Honda's 'Euro' styling and Comstar wheels, while the 6-valve, twin-cylinder motor delivered its 27bhp maximum output via a six-speed gearbox. Tested by Bike magazine in 1980, the versatile CB250N returned an overall fuel consumption figure in excess of 50mpg with a top speed of over 80mph.
This example which uses a 1980 frame with a 1979 engine, both V5C's are present so that the new owner can inform DVLA. Our vendor was building a bike for his wife but other projects kept getting in the way so he never finished it.
The frame has been powder coated, Mikuni carbs and filters, Aprilia forks, yoke and front brake, Brembo rear caliper, AP Racing master cylinder, billet rear hub, stainless steel spokes with alloy rims, Domino twin pull throttle and switch gear, standard exhaust, many stainless and titanium bolts and nuts used. The engine, with some 14,000 miles, runs well.
Now in need of the metal ware painting and final fettling this should make a different Super Dream with quality upgrades.
Sold with two V5C's as per above and some old MOT's
