[[file: 4b07eff5d82485c365ee5aba7ac0204eHonda-Hornet-250.jpg | 500px 600px | center | Honda CB250 Jade]]The naked Honda CB250F Hornet (Hornet 250) was first introduced in January 1996 as a replacement for the Honda CB250 Jade. The motorcycle was produced and sold only in the domestic Japanese market and was not officially supplied anywhere. In 2014, Honda introduces the Honda CB250F of the same name, based on the modern 1-cylinder model [[Honda_CBR250 | CBR250R]]. Models Honda CB250F Hornet (1996-2007) and Honda CB250F (2014+) have nothing in common and are completely different motorcycles. In this review, we only refer to the Honda CB250F Hornet (1996-2007).

The motorcycle was based on the engine from the sports model [[Honda_CBR250RR | Honda CBR250RR]], which is an in-line 4-cylinder liquid-cooled unit producing 40 hp. power and almost 24 Nm of torque. Despite some changes and tweaks to increase torque in the low and medium speed range, the motor is high-revving, showing maximum performance at 11000-13000 rpm. The timing is also noteworthy, the drive of which is carried out by means of gears. This solution was not new for Honda and was actively used on many models of the VFR, VF series and the [[Honda_CB-1 | CB-1]] model.
The Honda CB250F Hornet was available on the market until December 2007, after which production was halted without further development. The reason for this was the next update of environmental emission standards, which the motorcycle ceased to comply with. According to the company's calculations, the costs of developing the model and bringing it in line with the new requirements turned out to be too high and overlapped all profitability.
