Technical Overview
1994 Honda CB Two Fifty Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Honda's naked motorcycle platform, the 1994 Honda CB Two Fifty relies on a 239 cc (14.6 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17 HP (12.4 kW) at 6,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 17 Nm (12.5 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 71.1 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the CB Two Fifty measures 135 kg (298 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.94 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 755 mm (29.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops.
