2025 Honda® CRF250R

Last year, our CRF250R lapped the field when it came to winning championships: Both Supercross 250 titles plus the 250 MX National Championship. Just one of those would be reason to celebrate, but the CRF250R ran the table. And while we celebrated those championships, now you get to celebrate too, because our new 2025 CRF250R is based on changes we developed on our factory racebikes. Like our 2025 CRF450R, the CRF250R features a new frame specially tuned for turning response, new suspension components specially designed for a more consistent feel throughout the suspension stroke, new tripleclamps, new suspension linkage, and a new more linear front brake with less lever play. Our HRC Launch Control is ready to catapult you to the podium, and you can choose from three riding modes to dial in power delivery to your track conditions. To freshen up the look, there are new CRF graphics too.

Features may include:

• NINE-PLATE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY

The CRF250R uses a nine-plate design to improve durability and hookup. That helps eliminate slip at peak horsepower, better torque transmission through the clutch pack and greater durability. Plus, the clutch pull is lighter, and you get improved engagement feel.

• HRC LAUNCH CONTROL

We’re talking about a special ECU program here: push the starter 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. The lights on the left handlebar cluster tells you when its activated. It turns your bike into a holeshot-seeking machine!

• EXCLUSIVE WORKS EDITION

Simply stated, the best of the best. The CRF250RWE Works Edition includes all the standard CRF250R features, but also gets a new, exclusive hydraulic clutch, special hand-ported cylinder head; Hinson clutch basket and cover; Twin Air filter, Throttle Jockey graphics and seat cover; upgraded DID DirtStar LT-X rims; an exclusive Yoshimura exhaust system including a titanium midpipe and muffler; titanium oxide-coated lower fork legs; revalved suspension; an RK gold chain; special ECU settings; and black triple clamps.

• NEW FRAME

Great handling starts with a superior frame, and that’s one place where the CRF250R chassis puts you out front. First, it’s light. By making the frame’s main spars narrow, we save weight, but more importantly we make the chassis more responsive. This year approximately 70 percent of the frame components are new for excellent, responsive turning performance and to work with the new suspension.
