Built around Honda's cross - motocross motorcycle platform, the 2018 Honda CRF250R features a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 79.0 x 50.9 mm (3.1 x 2.0 inches) with a 13.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the CRF250R measures 108 kg (238 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 960 mm (37.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,481 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 6.28-liter (1.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
