It’s the little things that make the difference between that sweet taste of champagne and finishing somewhere in the back of the pack. Because, face it, every racer wants to win, and most motocross bikes these days are pretty darn good. That’s why you have to bring your best to every moto. And that’s why Honda is bringing some updates to what was already the best bike in the class, our CRF250R. This year's fine-tuning gives the CRF250R what it needs to keep you in front. New, larger radiators handle the output from a more powerful engine, which includes more cam lift and new titanium exhaust valves. Larger-diameter muffler pipes and a new resonator also help increase power. In terms of suspension, the Showa® Air Fork is five millimeters longer, and now features a Schrader valve to make adjusting the balance chamber easier. There’s even a new chain-roller diameter—our engineers haven’t missed a thing. And it’s all with one goal in mind: Giving you the best 250 MX bike there’s ever been. Mission accomplished!
The New CRF®250R – The Best Just Got Better The best-handling bike in the 250 class just got a whole lot better. That’s because Honda’s CRF250R is all new for 2014, with a major emphasis on doing what a 250 does best: offer precise, nimble, tack-sharp handling. So what did we do? First, we gave it our new, low-CG aluminum frame. Next, there's an updated fork, a new swing arm, a new shock and new linkage ratio. Finally, we added our patented dual-muffler exhaust – all of these come together to make the new CRF250R handle better than ever. We didn't stop there. Engine changes include a new, high-compression piston, new cylinder head and porting, a lighter radiator and new dual-stage fuel injection timing that offers crisp low to mid range power. Add it all up and you can see that the bike that Wil Hahn rode to win the 2013 250SX East title is even better for 2014! * Suggested Retail Price (SRP) excludes destination charge.

2013 Honda CRF250R, low hours - well kept - ready to go!! - On The Gas! Anyone who?s ever raced in the Lites class knows that your bike better be perfect if you expect to win. With a 450, all that power can help you erase a mistake, but on a 250 if you give an inch the rest of the pack is going to use you for traction. That?s why the new 2013 CRF250R doesn?t give an inch. We took the 2012 Lites East AND West SX champion and gave it an even sharper edge. Updates include a larger high speed compression adjuster on the shock for improved low-speed damping, along with a stiffer fork spring up front and more high-speed compression damping adjustability in the rear. New Dunlop MX51 tires improve drive feeling and save weight, and new disc covers channel some of the 450?s style into the 250 class. Of course we?ve kept the features that put the CRF250R on the top podium box all across the country: its twin-spar aluminum frame, Unicam engine with fuel injection (new ECU settings this year for better low- and mid-rpm performance), and the exclusive Honda Progressive Steering Damper. All-in-all, it?s the most dialed-in 250 we?ve ever produced, Which means it?s way more dialed than anything else on the track.
2008 Honda CRF250R, 7968 - Getting in and out of corners is where races are won?no question. And that's why, like the new CRF450R, the 2008 CRF250R features Honda's revolutionary new Honda Progressive Steering Damper (HPSD), improving cornering traction and stability while reducing fatigue. Add all-new works-style brake discs, power-boosting engine mods (higher compression and new cylinder-head porting), and once again, Honda proves the best can get better.
2007 Honda CRF250R, 7962 - With an AMA SX Lites title and countless magazine kudos to its name, some might think the CRF250R would rest on its laurels. Some would be sorely mistaken, because at this level of competition, there is no rest. So we honed this machine to an even finer, higher-revving edge for 2007, shaving weight, retooling cam profiles, revising the brake lever linkage for additional stopping power, and beefing up the clutch to ensure the best is even better.
2005 Honda CRF250R, new top end - new bottom end - no hour meter - ready to ride - The Honda CRF250R is the ultimate 250cc, four-stroke, motocross bike. And for 2005, our engineers upgraded it everywhere, increasing power and suspension ? while making it even lighter! Take one lap on the CRF250R and experience it for yourself. You already know this bike is going to be a winner. The question is ? will you be riding one?
2015 Honda CRF250R, Brand new!! - More Tuneable, Better Handling. The Best 250 Out There. Everyone knows the Honda CRF250R is one of the best handling bikes in the class.

One ride, and we know you?ll agree it was worth the wait. Some of the changes you?ll spot right away?the all-new Engine Mode Select button. It?s an industry first for MX bikes, and it?s going to make tuning your bike for changing track conditions a snap. Other changes include a larger front brake disc, a lighter throttle return spring and larger muffler exit-pipe diameter. One thing?s for certain?the closer you look, and the more you ride, the more you?re going to realize that the new CRF250R is the best 250 you?ve ever wheeled up to a start gate.
