Ride of the Week - Honda Redmoto CRF250RX Enduro 2021 Special

The 2021 CRF250RX has incredible ride feelings at high revs with an all new middle range stamina. The 'Special' is the off-road bike everybody wants. It's a true enduro star, now with the same chassis developed by HRC as the CRF450RX. The legendary high-end power of the 249.9cc DOHC engine is backed up by robust mid-range torque and now more powerful handling from the lowest revs.

In addition, it has a new steering geometry and Showa suspension reconfigured for off-track MX use, an 18-inch rear wheel, finger guards, a larger fuel tank and a side stand. So when the road gets tough (or tight and technical) and when bigger bikes get complicated and wear out, this bike makes a shine. It delivers power that keeps you moving, with a chassis that delivers maximum grip. And it helps you to use it. The CRF250RX makes speed simpler.
