Not a bad all around fun bike. Not really a Honda guy but this may be a good beginner bike for a 14yr old. -Ohio

Headlight and taillight (with brake light) should be standard across the board.

I have this bike. I bought it last year. It’s my first motorcycle and it’s great. Gas mileage is fantastic. My second ride was the longest so far, 75 miles, and I still had fuel. The simplicity of it is a big deal. There’s not much maintenance other than oil/filter changes and keeping the air filter clean/oiled. And the schedule is based on miles (instead of hours) and in increments of 750 miles just for oil changes. Other things last even longer. I’m 6’3 barefoot, and I feel comfortable on it. Although I did buy aftermarket handlebar risers. The handlebars suck. They bend easily. You will bend them if you’re new to motorcycles and/or prone to falling over while on rough terrain. Replacement better aluminum bars are $80-100. Also, the brake and clutch levers are likely to take damage for the same reasons above. Levers are inexpensive. Less than $20. I also have a 250 SXF that I bought this year. The power difference between them is significant. And the SXF sound is more mean and aggressive. But the Honda can still move its own ass in a hurry. Don’t expect much in the way of landing jumps. The suspension just can’t take it. I tried on small jumps on a trail, and I also went to an MX track (the reason I bought the SXF). Landing any sort of jump higher than something like 10 inches maybe is going to be a struggle. You’ll be absorbing a lot of the landing probably in your legs because the suspension compresses so easily. It’ll wear you out. Odd that the model in the video has a key light. Mine doesn’t. And yes I’ve drained my battery by leaving the key in. More than once. Not having an odometer sucks. They really should have included that. You’ll have to track distance with GPS apps on your phone and just keep a log. Overall, great bike. I don’t expect I’ll ever sell it because it’s so reliable and I can always ride it on trails. Having a motocross bike for track days is fun, but comparatively it’s a lot more work to own. Trail bike for the win.

This bike is great for a full size adult wanting to hit the trails with their kids. Power delivery is strong and smooth. More potent than you would think. Definitely wish it came with better bars, some hand guards, a head light and blacked out wheels. But it’s a bullet proof package… This bike is to much for my 5’7” wife when trails get technical. But the CRF125F big wheel is to small. I’m picking up a Kawasaki KLX140R F for her next week which still has the full size adult wheels but the seat height is a little lower at 33.9” and it weighs 218.2 lbs which just make for a perfect fit for her. The only drawback of The Kawasaki is that it’s not fuel injected like the Honda CRFs excluding the little 50cc which bare min needs an electric start added… The bikes we have right now are: 1.

I'm seriously thinking about getting one of these bikes. I've always wanted an XR250R, but this makes me raise my eyebrow. I'm a very experienced woods rider and have ridden more bikes than I can count. My current ride is a CRF450X, and it's a great bike, but maintenance is high, and I don't really find myself using all of the power available in tight trails. However, where the 450X shines is the suspension, it's wonderful and super forgiving. I'm sure the front forks on the 250F are probably going to suck, but the rest of the bike seems like a good compromise. I would love to see Honda release a "CRF250FX" that has slightly better suspension. More like the KLX300R does. I also owned a 230F for awhile and after some mods to make the suspension better and some gearing and tuning, I really started to like that bike. But I ultimately sold it to pickup the 450X, not for the extra HP, but for the suspension. One thing I would like to point out is that those rear chain tension adjusters have to be the easiest and nicest way of adjusting a chain I have ever dealt with. I remember the old Suzuki PE175 had those and we loved them. Honda should put those on all the trail bikes, they are fantastic.

The CRF250F is a good bike. Powerful enough but not intimidating . Kawasaki should be considered as well.

I think this is a great bike, but I think there best trail bike we could get now would be to take the CRF300L and strip it down to a headlight, for cost savings and have a CRF300F that was priced between this 250F and a 300L. If they made a 450F that would basically require a new engine, unless the 420 engine from the ATVs could fit,

You might be able to shave off 20-30lbs but then it's still got 30-40lbs over the CRF250F. But if those few pounds don't make a difference to you, it's definitely a feasible option due to how close they are in pricing. You're 100% correct there and yeah, the TRX420 engine is a little on the large side to squeeze into a dirtbike chassis so they'd have to develop a new engine.

I would totally buy a CRF 450f or 400f if they made em with lights. This Honda 250f is nice, but for the price, I can see alot of beginners hopping over to something like the Kayo K6 250 that's liquid cooled or the very cheap K4 250 air cooled bike, both come with a headlight and tail light and are cheaper or about the same price when we talk about the $4,999 MSRP on the K6 250. Of course, everyone loves the reliability of Hondas and easy to find parts, but for me and many others, cost is important, especially when buying a toy that only gets used maybe 10-12 times a year. I'm sure die-hard riders aren't rushing in to pick up these CRF 250F's anyway, but if you're starting out and the price is no issue, then this is a great starting bike for a teenager or adult. I think it would also be a great step-up bike for a kid who has been on a 125 for a few years and wants to hang with the big boys. Anyways, this is a great video and breakdown for anyone questioning their choices. Thank you.

A headlight would make sense. Although I don’t think I’ll be riding at night very often with the crazy terrain here in Colorado

Definitely back up kick start and I’d have to say get rid of the old style front forks and go with the black rims. I don’t like the look of the headlight faceplates. I’m using an 8” led light bar that’s connected to the handlebars. Looks so much better in my opinion.

Loving my 2023, though I do wish it came with a headlight. I’m completely new to riding but picked it up pretty quickly. It’s been 100% so far, but I’ve only run about three tanks of gas through it. With how I’m riding, it has plenty of power, but that might change in the future. I’m not wild about the color scheme either but plan on swapping out the plastics and adding different graphics. Why not, right? 😅 Black wheels would look so much better. It really does feel like a missed opportunity. I’m probably going to swap those out as well, sometime down the road. For now, I’m just having too much fun riding to care all that much. Love it! 😊

Right off the bat I can see that it is gonna be very difficult to develop a bigger tank for this bike...

Need A headlight for sure.

Should come with a headlight like the AUS and MEX version.

An AIR COOLED ( Don't want to deal with all the water cooling stuff for a family level trail bike ) CRF450F would be great. Also .... A headlight and Tial light should be on all these Family Version TRAIL bikes

Definitely a headlight and rear running light

Are you able to wheelie it? I had some friends tell me that there is something in the bike that doesn’t let the front wheel come off the ground.

might be picking up a used 2019 model sometime soon!

Heck yeah! It's the same bike minus the all red plastics and graphics so that's an easy way to save a few bucks while still getting what's currently available.

You should get a CR 500

Headlight would be great a 450 around the $6500 mark would be awesome

I just picked one up and my only complaint is it won't start unless your in neutral not sure if theirs a way to bypass this but to me this seems like a pain trying to find neutral when you can just drop it down to first

Thank you, appreciate the support!

6:15 can you just routinely turn off the bike with the key, or is it better to use the kill switch?

The fact that they didn't put a headlight on US models is ridiculous. And you can't just go out and buy one and install it.

Yes, a 400-450cc XR type bike would be great. Heck, even a this bike with a better suspension and higher seat height would be the awesome. Too much to ask for a headlight and 6th gear?

I"m getting one, thanks!!!

They should make a street legal crf450f with headlights and turn signals with a Kickstarter if I'm not mistaken it could make 38hp Wich is good for highway riding

That was the same dealer I was gonna go to how cool.

Жалко, неприятно слышать, что его не продают в России. Интересно, как одни страны получат одни модели, а другие нет. Надеюсь, вы, ребята, в будущем получите больше вариантов мотоциклов для бездорожья от Honda. Спасибо за добрые слова и поддержку, очень ценю!

So I have a 2008 CRF250X and I'm thinking about getting a crf250f would that be a good decision

5:06 ''demands'' the higher price? The term is ''commands'' a higher price, not 'demands'. Schools are teaching CRT and LBGT today, in leu of grammar or should I say 'gramer' lol.

Does anybody know if you can buy a programmer to reprogram the throttle body fuel injection on a 2022 CRF250F ,

Definitely would have to add a headlight

Can I swap the front suspension for CRF250x upside-down forks?

No Kickstart option on a trail bike is UNACCEPTABLE.

I want a 350 or 450 model with good suspension, low maintenance, and no where near 10-13k

It should have a headlight as you mentioned. Also with a 34” seat height it’s not a fun trail bike for vertically challenged. Not sure if lowering links are available for this model. It’s also a bit hefty for a older trail rider. Honda reliability is key and a given on Japanese manufactured bikes. Not sure where this one is built but would way in my decision.

I'd like to see their engines without casting cracks from the material cooling too rapidly -- Their QAQC on their non-flagship models have gone down significantly.

Headlight is a must

ive been there its a good shop

Couldn't probably get a 450f without eating into 250r/x sales I'd think.

@HondaProKevin

2 жыл бұрын

Definitely a possibility but depending on how they built and priced it, I don't think it would steal many away from the 250R/X as those are high strung race bikes for the most part.

Thats the place i bought my bike on the opening day

The crf450r-s it's probably as close as you're going to get to the budget-friendly crf450.

A CRF 400F with about 40hp would be sweet!

Hi, I am 13 years old, 5'2 and 105 pounds. if I waited a a year or a year and a half do you think this would be a good bike for me, I am getting too big for my 110 and want a 125 but nervous I will out grow it fast. I would appreciate any help!

Luckily the 2023 does have headlights

Sadly, still no headlight for the US spec CRF250F in 2023 but in other corners around the world it does ;)

I am 5’2” and about 170 lbs. I am a complete novice to riding dirt bikes, and I’m looking to ride on the hills at home in the dirt on the grass, also at SVRA‘s, on the trails, is it still a suitable bike for someone like me? How much can the bike be dropped so that I can comfortably use it

At your height and being new to riding, this might be a little too tall for you (unless you're a kid and still growing). The CRF125F or CRF125FB might be more up your alley with a lower seat height so you don't have to side saddle it and all of these were built to be dropped time and time again as it's going to happen in the dirt so as long as you don't end up with an unlucky fall - 9 out of 10 times you'll be able to pick it up and keep going. If you'd like to learn more about the CRF125 model lineup, here's a recent video I did on them: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWd91rWOl93bpbw.html

Yes! We want a 450f or even a 400f
