2017 Honda CRF250L

We think motorcycles should be about getting out and enjoying the world around you. The sun, the smells, the wind, the weather. More reality and less virtual. And you know whats even better? If you could find one bike that could do it all. Let you go exploring in the dirt. Zip along mountain roads. Commute to work every day. And even save you some money at the gas pump. Well, guess whatthe CRF250L and new CRF250L Rally are going to be the perfect bikes for all those things.

First, the CRF250L: Weve given it some great new updates for 2017. Some highlights: A larger throttle body improves the feel of the bikes low- and mid-range power, as does the new muffler design, revised airbox, and larger diameter exhaust header. And check out its new graphic treatment, matched up to our CRF450R MX bike. The all-new CRF250L Rally gets the same updated engine as the standard 250L, but it also gets a larger fuel tank, totally new Dakar-style bodywork, handguards, a windscreen, skid plate and even more suspension travel. And both give you a great upright seating position thats comfortable for longer rides, ideal for both urban traffic or out on the trail. Theyre even available with optional ABS.

• Packs a punch.

At the heart of our CRF250L and CRF250L Rally lies a fuel-injected single-cylinder engine, complete with an electric starter, counterbalance, and double-overhead cams. So you get smooth, consistent power packing loads of low- and mid-range torque.

• Comfort is key.

Out on the trail, you want a bike that allows for upright seating, keeping you ready for whatever lies around the next bend. And youll find those same qualities come in handy when riding in traffic. Either way, you can maneuver varying terrain in comfort.

• Rally-Bike Styling.

The tall windscreen, the extra-coverage fairing and side panels, the blended, frame-mounted bodywork and twin headlights are all marks of a true rally machine. The new 2017 CRF250L Rally looks great, but youll appreciate the extra wind- and weather protection too.
