The Honda CB250F also known as the Honda Hornet 250 is a
grey import. Powered by a de-tuned version of the inline-four engine from the CBR250, it produces around 40 PS at 14,000 rpm to its redline of 16,000 rpm.[citation needed] This tuning allows the engine to provide more useful low-end power. The bike features a 6-speed transmission and a 16-litre fuel tank and in later models, a dual-tone coloured exterior. This bike is said to emit a peculiar high-pitched whine due to the gear driven camshafts used inside the engine.[citation needed
]
Following reception from the Japanese market, the CB600F Hornet and CB900F Hornet were made available to the markets outside Japan.
