2023 Honda CRF250R
Since its 2004 introduction, Honda’s CRF250R has been the touchstone by which quarter-liter four-stroke competition motocross machines are measured. With each generation, Honda has brought new technologies that redefine the class and set the pace for years to come. While racing successes have steadily accumulated, Honda has not rested on its laurels for the 2022 model — an all-new machine that raises the bar for improved acceleration on corner exits, better endurance over race distance and reduced weight for increased agility.
