Thanks to it’s lightweight and slim proportions, the CRF250L can slip smoothly through congested city streets and with strong off-road performance, take on the rough too.
A dual purpose, Enduro style motorcycle with EURO4, DOHC, 4-valve engine
Styled directly from the world of motocross, it’s our sleekest CRF250L ever. We’ve added performance upgrades to open up more riding opportunities for newcomers and older riders too – no matter what kind of journey you want to tackle. With eye-catching racing colours and new bodywork – an influence from the competitive CRF450R motocross bike – it may look aggressive, but it has a friendly and compliant temperament that’s easy on the rider.
For extra braking power a 296mm floating, wave-style, disc is gripped by a two-piston caliper. Two-channel ABS is fitted as standard and gives the rider the option to switch off the rear caliper for independent control when you need it.
Easy-to-see information is laid out and displayed clearly on the digital dash, which features a speedometer, tachometer plus fuel gauge and clock.
The CRF250L comes finished in Honda’s Extreme Red competition colour – just like the racing CRF450R – as a base, with black and white accents inspired by the HRC factory machines.
The 7.8L (including 1.8L reserve) fuel tank delivers class-leading range of over 250km – that’s a lot of road and off-road. The flat filler cap is hinged for convenience.
From the bike’s mid-section to the back, the style is sharp and aggressive – pure Motocross and Enduro – with super-slim shrouds, side panels and a seat and tank combination that helps the rider move freely on the machine.
Pro-Link rear suspension features a ratio revised for rider comfort. The Showa shock absorber is a single tube design with 40mm diameter cylinder.
A 43mm Showa inverted fork works as a single unit – one side contains the spring while the other provides damping control. The spring rate and damping have been tuned to suit the bike’s road and off-road capability.
The tapered aluminium alloy swingarm incorporates a monoblock casting that provides
rigidity and balance while reducing the un-sprung mass for increased stability and better handling
The power and performance to take on the rough and the smooth – anywhere. The engine is a revamped, 250cc liquid-cooled, four-valve, DOHC single-cylinder type. EURO4-compliant, the PGM-FI ignition feeds fuel through a larger 38mm throttle body. All of this matched with a revised air-box and new, lighter exhaust system, makes 24.4hp at 8,500rpm and 16.66lb/ft torque 6,750rpm.
A frame that’s constructed from steel – with twin oval-section main spars and a semi-double cradle – is a strong combination that’s tough enough to take on a long, off-road excursion yet narrow enough for slipping through town.
A primary balance shaft reduces engine vibration, while the six-speed gearbox and clutch are manufactured to cope with the extra stress of riding off road – as well as delivering smooth control in town traffic.
