2004 Honda CRF250R and CRF250X

It had to happen eventually – everyone in the motocross world has been waiting and waiting for Honda to hop on the four-stroke 250cc bandwagon. After watching Yamaha steal the limelight with their YZ250F, it’s finally here - the CRF250R. Well, it’s kind of here - look at the photos and enjoy, because the bike is a 2004 model and won’t be available until late summer 2003.

In addition, there will be an electric-start off-road version called the CRF250X, which will also be released at the same time.
