CJ250T
AshimotoK0:
I was talking to my mate Graham who had a CJ250 from new, as I distinctly remember Honda selling after-sale accessory pinstripe stickers for the tank and he confirmed my thoughts and says he remembers them and they were genuine Honda parts. It p*ssed me off at the time as Honda did not sell a pinstripe decal for the 400F2, so I had to mask and spray my own on.
I can't remember what they looked like but I suspect they were like this CJ360 which DK recently listed.

Since when did a CJ250/360 have a drum front brake. Mine had a disk and I don't think the CJ was ever updated during it's short life. Must be an Americanism I guess.

That's because Americans don't use front brakes Roy, well at least in the movies, as all the baddies crash their bikes with the back brake locked and sliding down into oblivion. ;D

American Early CJ/CB250/360G's did have drums ... useful for restorers of the previous K models, like me, since the drum fits that model fine and the brake-plate only differs in that it has a little arrow mark cast into it for the brake wear indicator fitted to the 'G' models.

Excellent work Andy. I had one of these back in the day as I needed something reliable to get me to work and it did a lot of miles, including some long trips like Guildford to Newcastle, without missing a beat. I can't say I really loved the bike, but it did exactly what I needed it to do. Traded it in for a 400/4 :)
