2023 Honda CRF250F Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2023 Honda CRF250F cross - motocross motorcycle, Honda relies on a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 71.0 x 63.0 mm (2.8 x 2.5 inches) with a 9.6:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the CRF250F measures 120.2 kg (265 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 884 mm (34.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,420 mm (55.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 6.06-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
