Honda CBX250RS

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Honda CBX250RS is a motorcycle that Honda first sold in Japan in May 1983 as its new 250 cc sports bike, intended to replace the popular CB250RS. Its engine was based on the XR series, with links to the XR350 bottom end including a six-speed gearbox and the same oil pump; the stroke is the same but the bore was reduced to bring the capacity down to 249 cc, the balance shaft was dropped in favour of rubber mounting, and, unlike any other XR engine, the top was given two camshafts. It had dual carburettors, only one with a pilot circuit. The CBX250RS-E sold in the United Kingdom in 1984 to 1986 at 1,398 pounds was a sales flop at about 300 units, and in Japan it was soon replaced by the cafe racer-styled GB250.
