2024 HONDA CRF250RR,

East Or West, It's The Best;

;

There's never been any doubt about the best bike in the 250 class, but if you need more proof, just check out the results from this year's Supercross. Jett and Hunter Lawrence can ride anything they want, but they both choose the Honda CRF250R, and rode away with both the 250 East and 250 West AMA Supercross championships—and with a huge points margin to boot! And it's easy to see why: CRF250R stacks the deck when it comes to torque and midrange power—where you really need it for critical track sections like whoops, managing jumps, or blasting out of deep loam and berms. Plus, we've gone to extra lengths to keep the bike light, narrow, and responsive. For 2024, the choice is clear: You need to be on a Honda CRF250R . . . unless you're happy racing for second place.

• Nine-plate Clutch Assembly: Say good-bye to clutch fade—the bike uses a nine-plate design to improve durability and hookup. That means less slip at peak horsepower, better torque transmission through the clutch pack and greater durability. Plus, the clutch pull is lighter, and you get improved engagement feel.
• Big Bore/short Stroke: The CRF250R's 79.0mm bore and short 50.9mm stroke let our engineers create a high-revving engine with plenty of room for large valves. The engine breathes and revs—the two keys to making power in the motocross world.
• Dohc Engine Layout: The CRF250R uses a double-overhead-cam (DOHC) engine layout with a unique finger-follower rocker design. Together with the rest of the engine's architecture (bore and stroke, intake tract, piston, and more), you get more power and a higher redline.
• Single-pipe Exhaust: The CRF250R uses a single-pipe header. It routes close to the center of the bike, and its light overall construction helps improve weight distribution. The single muffler uses a pressed-alloy design that lets us shape the muffler body for better rider ergonomics and lighter weight.
• Downdraft Intake And Exhaust Layout: The DOHC cylinder-head design lets our engineers straighten out the CRF250R's intake and exhaust tracts. The intake is short and just about arrow straight, and the exhaust flows more efficiently too. The straighter ports also help boost low-speed and midrange torque as well as throttle response.
