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.

Dominating is in our DNA

DOHC engine layout

With a unique finger-follower rocker design, the DOHC engine maximizes power and raises the redline, resulting in superior performance.

Dominating is in our DNA

Higher-capacity radiator

It boasts a six percent larger radiator area compared to its predecessor, providing the ample cooling capacity needed to sustain the updated engine's higher power output.

Dominating is in our DNA

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.

Dominating is in our DNA

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.

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!

Nine-plate clutch assembly

An advanced nine-plate clutch design reduces slip at peak horsepower, improves torque transmission, and ensures greater longevity.

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.
