CJ 250 T

Honda is a Japanese manufacturing company that produces automobiles, motorcycles, and small engines. Honda is known for building reliable vehicles and performance-oriented street bikes. The company got it’s start selling motorcycles in the early 1960’s in the United States. The CJ360T was only produced for a short time and today is a collectible vintage motorcycle. This Honda CJ250T owners manual provides all the factory details necessary for owners wanting to return these ultra rare cycles to former glory.

The CJ250T was conceived as a low-cost motorcycle, but poor efforts at marketing the line led to dismal sales. The Honda CJ250T was only available from 1976 to 1978. It was powered by a 250 cc v-twin with an overhead camshaft. A five-speed transmission turned the power to the rear wheel via chain drive. The simplicity of the bike led to it’s reputation for reliability.

At the time the CJ250T was introduced, competitor motorcycles typically were powered by two-stroke v-twin engines that required regular maintenance. The Honda CJ250T featured a modern four-stroke engine that was easier to service and produced lower emissions, but was not as fast as the competition.

The CJ250T was only available in two colors, red and white in 1976-77. In 1977-78, the Honda CJ250T was only available in red with an orange stripe. Power output from the v-twin was 16.6 horsepower, good enough for a top speed of over 75 miles per hour. The bike was rugged and well-built, but the inferior five-speed transmission -versus the competitions six-speed- and poor acceleration due to the four-stroke engine made it an unpopular choice for new motorcycle buyers.

Today, high quality CJ250T motorcycles are rare, and finding one in good, original condition is difficult.
