This must have been the best bike for sand riding at its time, can you imagine a 23" front?

It came in Monza Red and Black
The gas tank and side covers were 2-tone red and black
The "HONDA" tank logo was black
The "XL250S" side cover logo was red and white
The swingarm was painted silver
The front wheel was 23" while the back was 18"
The control levers and kickstarter arm were black
There was a 2-piece instrumentation: speedometer and indicator light pod
The speedometer had an 85 mph (135 km) limit
The instrumentation featured only a speedometer
The engine was a 249cc OHC 4-valve single cylinder with two head pipes
The transmission was a 5-speed
The serial number began JH2MD010*BM300001
