Honda CRF250L Rally Review

Honda CRF250L.The CRF250L’s problem is not so much the bike itself, but one of perspective which is partly Big Red’s fault and partly our own. Honda is to blame for making the bike look too much like the CRF-Rs, because that’s what they did. The bike looks like a full on dirt bike which then leads us to expect full-on dirt bike performance. The part that’s our fault is that we tend to forget the CRF250L’s price (a very budget friendly $5,149) and that its pedigree is from the street, with the engine and even some other parts coming from the CBR250R sport bike.
