VOLUME ISSUE MAY , P65 H onda's premium off-road race bikes, the CRF450RX and CRF250RX, are heavily updated for the 2025 model year. The CRF450RX received the same changes as its close relative, the CRF450R, which means it has a new frame, updated suspen - sion and bodywork. Honda says, "These advancements enhance handling characteristics, with greater stability and comfort—es - pecially in rough terrain." The 2025 CRF250RX also gets the same treatment as the 2025 Honda CRF250R motocrosser, "... achieving greater stability, comfort and power delivery," says Honda. Both models will be available in August. Honda's street-legal off-roader, the CRF450RL is back for 2025. It doesn't get all the performance changes as its motocross and off-road-racing cousins, but it does have a new look. The 2025 Honda CRF450RL dual sport will also be available in August. Also returning is the CRF450X. Mechanically, it's the same but with new cosmetics. You can get your hands on the 2025 Honda CRF450X in June.
