The Honda CRF250M’s supermoto style and attitude, combined with tough, accessible performance credentials make it ideal for the young rider looking for something different. Initially announced in January 2013 the CRF250M is based on the popular dual-purpose CRF250L, with a revised suspension, uprated front brake and 17-inch wheels with wider road tyres, the CRF250M adds another A2 licence-friendly machine (UK license type) to Honda’s line-up. Its free revving single-cylinder engine provides crisp, instant response thanks to revised gearing and punchy power and torque delivery, whilst also offering impressive fuel economy. It’s due to arrive in UK dealerships in early summer 2013, priced at £4099 OTR and will be sure to add an extra dimension to Honda’s unparalleled range of accessible, fun and reliable machines.
This is one of the many Honda’s that we are waiting for in India and hope this along the 400cc trio make its way here soon.
