Built around Honda's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2013 Honda CRF250X utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 52.2 mm (3.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 12.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the CRF250X measures 115.2 kg (254 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 958 mm (37.7 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 7.19-liter (1.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
