FIRST THE HOLESHOT. THEN THE PODIUM.
FIRST THE HOLESHOT. THEN THE PODIUM.
Heroic podium speeches start with heroic holeshots--if you're not on it from the second the gate drops, the other guys are gonna eat your lunch. That's why you need to be on a Honda CRF250R. Because it'll be you who's doing the feeding--feeding the rest of the field your roost. High-revving DOHC engine. Fine-tuned twin-spar aluminum chassis. The kind of fit, finish, and refined detail you see on factory bikes. The list of features goes on and on. It's a complete package that's ready to win, right off the showroom floor. All it takes is the right rider--and that's where you come in.
COMFORT
• BLACK RIMS: They may not help you go faster, but the sweet black DID DirtStar rims sure look good.
• FLAT SEAT/TANK JUNCTION: The 2021 CRF250R features a flat seat/tank junction, including a titanium fuel tank. The superior ergonomics make it easier to move forward and back on the bike, increasing your control.
• "IN MOLD" GRAPHICS: With the all the time you'll be spending in victory circle, you need to look your best. The CRF250R has you covered. Our "in mold" graphics look great, and stay looking good.
CONVENIENCE
• ELECTRIC START: The CRF250R is equipped with an effortless electric starter. Convenient and lightweight, it's a huge deal if you need to restart a stalled bike in the heat of battle.
ENGINEERING
• HRC LAUNCH CONTROL: We're talking about a special ECU program here: push the button to select the mode, hold the throttle open, release the clutch, and the CRF250R will do the rest, launching you into the first turn with a big advantage. It turns your bike into a holeshot-seeking machine!
• BIG BORE/SHORT STROKE: The CRF250R's 79.0mm bore and short 50.9mm stroke let our engineers create a high-revving engine with plenty of room for large valves. The engine breathes and revs--the two keys to making power in the motocross world.
• CLUTCH DESIGN AND MATERIALS: The CRF250R's clutch uses two different types of friction material. Why? The clutch can handle the increased power of the engine without being any larger. The lighter rotating weight is directly related to how fast the engine revs. Stronger clutch springs help cope with all that power.
HANDLING
• SHOWA® SPRING FORK: The 49mm Showa® fork features a conventional spring design that helps increase the CRF250R's front-suspension precision, handling and feel. The 39mm piston diameter and 25mm rod diameter guarantee a plush feel and supple action.
• 260mm FRONT BRAKE: The CRF250R's large front-brake disc measures a whopping 260mm. You get great brake feel and a pattern that cuts down on weight. Front and rear brake-disc guards are part of the package too.
• DUNLOP MX3S TIRES: Developed using Dunlop's latest "block-on-block" design technology, the CRF250R's MX3S tires give excellent feedback and are a perfect complement to the CRF250R's frame and suspension.
PERFORMANCE
• DOUBLE-SPRAY INJECTOR SETTINGS: The CRF250R's fuel-injection system sprays twice per intake cycle. That helps increase fuel atomization without adding the weight or complexity of a second injector. The better fuel atomization means more power in the midrange and on over rev--you'll feel it the first time you race
• BRIDGED-BOX PISTON: The CRF250R's bridged-box piston is the final piece to the CRF250R's engine performance package. The design features a reinforcing structure between the skirts and the wrist-pin bosses that helps enable the CRF250R's high redline.
• HIGH CAPACITY RADIATOR: When you're making big power and riding long motos, you need plenty of radiator capacity to keep your engine running strong. No worries--the CRF250R has you covered in that department.
