2019 HONDA CRF250RX
FIRST REVIEW
P92
To prove it's a race bike, the RX features
every race-worthy component from the
CRF250R. The programmable map switch
with it's blinking light is there, and it even
includes launch control. The engine is nearly
identical to the R with only specific ECU
settings uploaded to give it off-road friendlier
manners. The suspension components are
similar, but feature revised front-end settings
and spring rates for off-road. It shares the
same frame, Renthal Fatbar, multi-position
handlebar mounting triple clamp, black rims
and a lot more with the R.
The End
The new Honda 250RX is an excellent
motorcycle. If you're looking to fill a hole in
your garage, have a one-bike budget this
year, don't need a license plate to hit some
off-road riding areas (once you slap on some
spark arrestors), it's worthy of your consider-
ation. Things like the kickstand, the sealed
chain, a bigger fuel tank and 18-inch rear
wheel add weight, for sure, but the bike's
enjoyment isn't hampered one bit.
We just keep having fun on this ride. CN
The more we ride
the CRF250RX, the
more we like it.
