Those are a lot younger than they look. ;)
Indeed, the earliest version of that engine, , the 6v points CD185 was 1978 and those 250's started in '88.

Hi
I have a '98 cb250W nighthawk, 100% original 95% mint, only done 2500 miles, same engine as 250U, all of 20 bhp. They are very capable machines, can do both commuting and long journeys. 80 mph and 80 mpg, what more do you want?
