The CRF230F. Light in Weight. Light on Maintenance.

When it comes to dirt bikes, you don't want a lot of extra weight. So the CRF230F features a lightweight semi-double-cradle, high-tensile steel frame, lightweight rear drum brake and lightweight aluminum crankcase. You also don't want to work a lot so it's light on maintenance with a maintenance-free CD ignition, sealed battery, snail-type chain adjusters and a reusable, foam air filter for reduced maintenance costs.

  • Electric Starter

    • Effortless electric starter makes getting the engine started easy.
    • Even when the engine is cold or at high altitude, all you need to do is push a button.

  • Pro-Link® Rear Suspension

    • Honda's Pro-Link rear suspension system offers compliant and comfortable ride quality with a high level of wheel control.
    • It connects a single spring/damper unit to the swingarm via a progressive linkage and delivers an excellent combination of spring and damping rates over a wide range of riding conditions.
    • Initial rates are soft for supple action over small bumps and ripples, while increasingly stiffer rates resist bottoming and maintain rear-wheel control over rougher surfaces.

  • Disc Brake

    • Front disc brake provides superior stopping power
    • Front disc rotor is drilled for lightness and better wet-weather performance.
