2025 CRF250RWE
Yoshimura exhaust
The CRF250RWE’s exhaust is another premium item. It uses a stainless header with a titanium mid-pipe and muffler and is made especially for us by Yoshimura. Super light and super trick, the exhaust tucks away for better ergonomics, too.
Hydraulic clutch
Like the Team HRC race bikes, the CRF250RWE has a hydraulic clutch from the factory. This is a first for a stock Honda 250, eliminating the need to adjust the lever and providing a much lighter and more accurate feel.
New frame
A superior frame is crucial for excellent handling, and the CRF250RWE chassis delivers. It's lightweight and responsive, with narrow main spars. For 2025, 70 percent of the frame components are new, working seamlessly with the suspension for responsive handling.
Roost the competition
DOHC engine layout
With a unique finger-follower rocker design, the DOHC engine maximizes power and raises the redline, resulting in superior performance.
Higher-capacity radiator
It boasts a six percent larger radiator area compared to previous generations, providing the ample cooling capacity needed to sustain the updated engine's higher power output.
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.
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.
More power. Sharper handling.
Exclusive works edition
Simply stated, the best of the best. The 2025 CRF250RWE is top-of-the-line and includes exclusive upgrades such as a hydraulic clutch, special cylinder head, upgraded rims, exhaust system, revalved suspension, and more. Only a limited number are available.
Yoshimura exhaust
The CRF250RWE’s exhaust is another premium item. It's a full titanium system (header, mid-pipe and muffler) and is made especially for us by Yoshimura. Super light and super trick, the exhaust tucks away for better ergonomics, too.
More power
Feel free to hold that throttle open and head for the first turn—the 2025 model is designed to win that critical holeshot drag race. You’ll also feel the increased low-end to mid-range torque.
New frame
A superior frame is crucial for excellent handling, and the chassis delivers. It's lightweight and responsive, with narrow main spars. For 2025, 70 percent of the frame components are new, working seamlessly with the suspension for responsive handling.
New tripleclamps, axle, and steering stem
New triple clamps in the 2025 model work with the updated frame, fork, and steering stem for better suspension feel and improved rigidity, responsiveness, and turning performance.
Lower seat/narrower body
For 2025, we have fine-tuned the seat height and narrowed the bodywork to make moving around on the bike easier and enhance overall rider comfort.
New "stacked" CRF logo
Like our factory racebikes, our 2025 CRF competition lineup features new vertically stacked CRF logos that look fast even sitting still.
Low battery mounting
Attention to detail is essential to keeping a bike’s center of gravity low. That’s why we located the battery low in the chassis. It’s just another reason the bike handles so well.
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 fuel mass.
HRC launch control
This ECU program lets you select a mode, hold the throttle open, and release the clutch. Your bike then takes control and launches you ahead, turning it into a holeshot-seeking machine!
