Bike Profile

The Honda Nighthawk 250 is as stealthy looking as it sounds. As pretty and aerodynamic as it is, it still makes a great beginner bike and many a MSF student straddled its back for the course. It is a stable and reliable bike which almost makes it sound dull—but don't ever make that mistake. The Nighthawk 250 quickly became an extremely popular bike for Honda and is the only one of the series still in production.

The demand for a reliable yet good looking commuter bike is what spawned the idea for the Nighthawk. After all, a biker has to look like a biker even if it is just zipping to the store, or heading off to work. Its 233cc engine provides ample power for short commutes and those learning how to handle the energy a motorcycle can produce. A 5-speed constant mesh gear box makes shifting in city traffic easy and hassle free. All of these things combined made the Honda Nighthawk 250 a massive success for urban situations but the ability is there for an anything you need it to do bike. At 286 pounds it is light enough for anyone to handle and a 29.3 inch seat is easy for the shortest rider to sit and yet tall enough to be comfortable for large riders as well. It can get speeds of 84 mph so the highway is as much its home as the city—this hawk will fly anywhere you want to go.
