Again I do not believe Honda ever offered the CA250 outside of Asian markets.

There are different versions of the 234cc engine, the side case covers are markedly different between the CMX250 and CA250

The CMX is still in production, I do not believe Honda still makes the CA250 version, that may be because the CMX250 has a lower production cost, as it only has a single carburetor, it also looks more compact, it may actually weigh less?

I am not sure but the USA may be the last existing market for the CMX250?

The Chinese manufacturers make droves of the CA250 versions, I would say the one you have is probably one of the better versions, but that is just based on what I read online.

I think if I had one I would be considering cleaning out the oil screen? You have to take off the right side cover to get to it and that means you need a gasket? You could reuse the old one? The bike is not worn in yet, it looks to be in very good condition.

Yours may use the same gaskets as the CMX or not? I would suggest making a template and then making your own from the one you have as getting parts for that specific bike could be a bit challenging in the UK.

I am fairly certain that there is a screened internal chamber under the right side cover that should be cleaned out periodically.

I shall take a look at that today thank you.
