2014 Honda CRF250L Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Honda for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2014 Honda CRF250L features a 249.6 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22.8 HP (16.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22 Nm (16.2 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 91.3 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the CRF250L measures 145.2 kg (320 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.16 HP/kg (6.37 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 881 mm (34.7 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,445 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.57-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.22 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 235 km (146 miles) between fill-ups.
