    Yea...it's a honda but.....

    Dont laugh, fellas, for what this bike is designed for...it does it VERY WELL. At my weight(168) i get 70 mpg and 97.00 a year full coverage ins. I am going to miss my commuter :( , for it is SOLD. I pick up my '82 XJ 750 on saturday. Then the parts bike 2 weeks later. The cost of ownership/maintanance will go up, but, we all must make sacrifices,lol. Anyway, here is my first pic. When i get the XJ i will post more as the project rolls on 8) :D

    Live long and prosper, O little 2007 Honda Nighthawk CB250...you will be missed :(

    EDIT: Look in my gallery :D

    This site is primarily targeted at the XJ series Yamaha's but there's nothing wrong with your Honda or posting a picture of it. Glad you enjoyed it. :) You're going to enjoy your Seca also.

    Everyone here likes to ride, doesn't really matter what.

    And welcome to the site.

    It was a 250,2carbs,learnt a lot on that bike.Suffered greatly from my attempts at muckanics I'm afraid.
    My first speeding fine ,my first defect stickers,quite a few reasonably low and not so low speed falls,sold when I couldn't get it to start and found several weeks later burned in a local park.
    Much regretted sale.

    I had one kinda like that, before my XJ. Only had it for 1 season and put about 1100 miles on it, then sold it to get something bigger. It would be kind of nice to have hung on to it though.
    Always had older guys saying things like "Look at that old Scrambler! I had one like that back in the day."
