250-class king
DOHC engine layout
With a unique finger-follower rocker design, the DOHC engine maximizes power and raises the redline, resulting in superior performance.
New styling
For 2027, the new livery features large horizontal Honda and CRF logos, plus blue side number plates and rear fender, creating a tri-color look that embodies the Honda HRC racing identity.
High-volume airbox and air cleaner
The air-cleaner element has a large surface area and volume, and the airbox provides direct airflow to the engine, resulting in power throughout the rpm range.
Gear-position engine mapping
The smart ECU delivers tailored engine mapping for each gear, giving riders the edge with optimal power in every gear choice.
Race-ready in every detail
Responsive frame
A superior frame is crucial for excellent handling, and the chassis delivers. It's lightweight and responsive, with narrow main spars, and was designed with direct input from Honda HRC factory riders.
Tripleclamps, axle, and steering stem
We tuned the tripleclamps, frame, fork, and steering stem for ideal chassis rigidity and responsiveness, giving the bike cornering feel for days.
Lower seat/narrower body
We fine-tuned the seat height and bodywork width to make it easy to move around on the bike and enhance overall rider comfort.
Higher-capacity radiator
A large radiator provides the cooling capacity needed to sustain the engine's high power output.
Engine mode select button
Customize your engine's power delivery with the convenient left-side, handlebar-mounted blue button. It allows you to effortlessly switch between Standard, Smooth, and Aggressive modes to suit varying track conditions or rider preference.
Showa® spring fork
The 49mm Showa fork uses a conventional spring design with a 39mm piston and a 25mm rod to give the rider a supple feel while still having the holdup needed to resist bottoming under heavy loads like big jumps, bumps, or ruts.
Titanium fuel tank
Every gram counts, so the bike has a titanium fuel tank. Light and strong, it’s also thinner than our previous plastic unit, freeing up more space and helping to centralize the fuel’s mass.
Black rims
The DID DirtStar rims are lightweight and strong, while the black color looks good and is easy to clean.
HRC launch control
The ECU’s special launch control program lets you select the mode with the green button, hold the throttle open, and release the clutch. Your bike then takes control, regulating power to the rear wheel based on available traction and turning it into a holeshot-seeking machine!
