2026 Honda® CRF250R

2026 Honda® CRF250R Features may include: Honda’s CRF250R is a purpose-built racer straight from the front lines of pro motocross and supercross. With its torque-hungry engine, razor-sharp chassis, and championship-winning factory DNA, it’s made to thrive under pressure. Every jump, every corner, every gate drop—it’s why champions Ride Red.
DOHC engine layout
With a unique finger-follower rocker design, the DOHC engine maximizes power and raises the redline, resulting in superior performance.

Single-muffler exhaust
A pressed-alloy design lets us shape the muffler for better rider ergonomics and lighter weight.

Fuel injection system
The 60-degree angled fuel injector delivers a cooler and denser fuel charge, increasing power and torque. These meticulous details put this bike ahead of the competition.

High-performance cam profiles
Drawing inspiration from our esteemed HRC factory team, we have meticulously crafted the cam profiles to enhance bottom-end torque and power without compromising the exhilarating peak performance.

Big bore/short stroke
With a 79.0mm bore and short 50.9mm stroke, our engineers designed a high-revving engine with ample space for large valves, the core elements of power in motocross.

Downdraft intake and exhaust layout
The DOHC cylinder-head design straightens intake and exhaust tracts for more efficient flow. It also boosts low-speed and midrange torque and throttle response.

Titanium intake and exhaust valves
High-revving engines benefit from lightweight components, such as titanium valves with a 20.5-degree angle and ovalized valve springs with finger rockers that are treated with Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) for durability.

Bridged-box piston
The bridged-box piston design is the final piece of the engine performance package. It features a reinforcing structure between the skirts and wrist-pin bosses that helps enable a high redline.

High redline
Our DOHC design and big-bore/short-stroke engine lead to an impressive rev limit, peak power, and peak torque.

High-volume airbox and air cleaner
Compared to the previous generation, the air-cleaner element features a larger surface area and volume, and the airbox features a more direct flow to the engine, resulting in improved power.

Throttle body
The throttle body, with a 44mm venturi designed to increase airflow, provides improved power and responsiveness at low engine speeds.

Yoshimura exhaust
The CRF250RWE’s exhaust is another premium item. It's a full titanium system (header, mid-pipe and muffler) and is mad
