O
ur first ride on this new Honda
CRF250R was much anticipated.
After we revealed the details of this
bike earlier this year we've been waiting
patiently for a ride.
We wanted to feel the new top-end-priority
power. We wanted to feel what the 49mm
A-Kit-style spring fork felt like. We wanted to
absolutely holeshot the Absolute Holeshot
philosophy that claims this bike would be
precisely 3% better at start performance.
Well, we did all that. And we're here to
report about it. Oh wait; we forgot to do
practice starts—probably because we were
having too much fun jumping over the Honda
Racing Corporation's Ridgeline.
