New 2026 Honda CRF250R X

2026 HONDA CRF 250RXMX speed. Off-road IQ.Blending motocross performance with off-road purpose, the CRF250RX features an 18-inch rear wheel, tuned engine settings, a larger fuel tank, and handguardsall built on the CRF250R platform. Its lightweight, precise, and ready to race from the woods to the wide-open desert.Fuel injection systemTilting the fuel injector at a 60-degree angle sprays fuel directly towards the throttle butterfly, providing the engine with a denser and cooler fuel charge and increasing torque and power.DOHC engineA unique finger-follower rocker design and a double-overhead-cam (DOHC) engine layout provide more power and a higher redline.Big bore/short strokeWith the 79mm bore and short 50.9mm stroke, it let our engineers create a high-revving engine with plenty of room for large valvesthe two keys to making power in the enduro world.Downdraft intake and exhaustThe DOHC cylinder-head design straightens the intake and exhaust tracts for improved efficiency. Straighter ports boost low-speed and midrange torque and throttle response.Single exhaustThe bike uses a single-pipe header and a single muffler. It routes close to the center, and its light overall construction helps improve weight distribution.Titanium intake and exhaust valvesLight is right when it comes to a high-revving engines reciprocating masses. We use titanium intake and exhaust valves with a super-narrow 20.5-degree included valve angle.Large-diameter valvesThe engines twin-cam design includes large-diameter valves33mm intakes and 26mm exhaustswhich enhance flow at high rpm.Throttle bodyWith a 44mm venturi designed to speed up airflow, the throttle body reaps benefits at low engine operating speeds. You get power and snap right now.Bridged-box pistonThe bridged-box piston design features a reinforcing structure between the skirts and the wrist-pin bosses that helps enable the high redline.High-volume airboxThe airbox and air-cleaner element have a larger surface area and volume to increase midrange power. Additionally, the air filter is easy to service.High-performance cam profilesWith input from our HRC factory team, weve given the bike cam profiles that help the engine produce ample bottom-end torque while retaining substantial peak power.Dunlop Geomax AT81 tiresDunlops Geomax AT81 tires are specifically designed for enduro use. They are specd at 21 inches for the front and 18 inches for the rear.Race-bred chassisCompared to the previous generation, we revised the tripleclamps, frame, fork, and steering stem for improved chassis rigidity and responsiveness to give the bike better cornering feel.Responsive frameA superior frame is crucial for excellent handling, and the chassis delivers. Its lightweight and responsive, with narrow main spars, and was designed with direct input from Team Honda HRC riders.260mm front brakeThe front brake disc measures 260mm, which provides excellent brake feel and weight reduction. Front and rear brake-disc guards are included.Low battery mountingLocating the battery low in the chassis helps lower the center of gravity, which always helps overall handling.Low rear shock mountWith its rear shock mount low on the frame, the bike benefits from a lower center of gravity (CG) and greater handling stability.Short swingarmThe bikes short swingarm reduces unsprung mass, improves rear-wheel traction, and lightens it for improved handling.Showa spring forkValved specifically for off-road riding, the 49mm Showa fork features a conventional spring with a 39mm piston diameter and a 25mm rod diameter. Its designed to provide a smooth and comfortable feel while effectively preventing bottoming out under heavy loads, such as large bumps, roots, or rocks.Rear suspensionOur Pro-Link design gives it 12.3 inches of suspension travel and a lightweight spring, resulting in a plush, controlled ride.18-inch rear wheelDesigned for enduro use, the 18-inch rear wheel and tire combo provides better bump absorption and a broader contact patch to smooth out the roots, ruts, and rocks that come with off-road riding.Nine-plate clutchIt uses a nine-plate design to improve durability and hookup. That means less slip at peak horsepower, better torque transmission through the clutch pack, and improved durability.Special primary and transmission ratiosIt gets special primary and transmission ratios to handle the fatter midrange power and torque. The ratios let our engineers use the same shaft centerlines as the previous design so the transmission remains light and compact.Gear-position engine mappingAn ECU with custom engine mapping for each gear delivers optimal power, setting it apart from the competition.Large-capacity radiatorA larger radiator area results in better cooling and more power from start to finish. This design includes six percent more radiator area than the previous generation.Engine oil scavenge pumpDeep in the engine, theres a special oil scavenge pump that weve designed to be especially small and out of the way. While you may never see it, it helps keep the overall design compact.Shared engine/gearbox lubricationA shared engine/transmission oiling design reduces weight and makes the engine more compact, particularly for the right-side cam drive and clutch placement.In-mold graphicsWith all the time youll spend in the victory circle, you need to look your best. Our in-mold graphics look great and stay looking that way for a long time.Stacked CRF logoLike our factory racebikes, our CRF competition lineup features the vertically stacked CRF logos that look fast even sitting still.Black rimsThe DID DirtStar rims are lightweight and strong, while the black color looks good and is easy to clean.HandguardsWhether youre ripping through Baja or hustling through some tight woods, handguards are absolutely necessary on a bike like this. Thats why its equipped with them right from the factory.Narrow seat and bodyFine-tuning the seat height and narrowing the bodywork make it easier for you to move around on the bike and help enhance rider comfort.SidestandReal enduro bikes need a sidestand, and weve given this bike a great one. Weve tucked it in tight, so its out of the way on the trail.Electric startIts equipped with an effortless electric starter. Convenient and lightweight, its a huge deal if you need to restart a stalled bike in the heat of battle.HRC Launch ControlPush the button, hold the throttle open, and release the clutch this bike will do the rest, launching you into the first turn with a big advantage. Its a holeshot-seeking machine!Engine mode select buttonCustomize your engines power delivery on the fly with the convenient handlebar-mounted button, allowing you to easily switch between Standard, Smooth, and Aggressive modes to suit varying track conditions or rider preferences.Features249cc liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engineHigh-volume airboxTwin-spar aluminum frameShowa spring forkFactory handguardsEngineEngine Type - 249cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder four-strokeBore and Stroke - 79.0mm x 50.9mmCompression Ratio - 13.9:1Valve Train - DOHC; four valves per cylinderInduction - Programmed Fuel-Injection system (PGM-FI); 44.0mm throttle bodyDrivetrainTransmission - Five-speedFinal Drive - #520 Chain; 13T/50TChassis Suspension BrakesFront Suspension - 49.0mm leading-axle inverted Showa fork; 12.2-inch travelRear Suspension - Pro-Link Showa single shock with spring preload, rebound- and compression-damping adjustability; 12.3-inch travelFront Brake - Single 260.0mm discRear Brake - Single 240.0mm discFront Tire - Dunlop Geomax AT81; 90/90-21Rear Tire - Dunlop Geomax AT81; 110/100-18DimensionsRake - 27.5Trail -4.5 inchesWheelbase - 58.2 inchesSeat Height - 37.7 inchesGround Clearance - 13.0 inchesFuel Capacity - 2.1 gallonsCurb Weight - 242 pounds (ready to ride)OtherAvailable Colors - RedModel ID - CRF250RX
