The Honda CR250R was a racing dirt bike. It was introduced as a prototype in 1971, and in late 1972, Honda started producing the 1973 model year. The bike was manufactured for nearly 37 years, from 1973 until 2007.
In 2005, the Japanese maker released the Honda CR250R, a racing dirt bike part of the third and final generation. It came with several differences such as an aluminum chassis, thinner, with better flex properties, the same engine, and minor suspension and plastic modifications.
In the aesthetic department, the motorcycle had standard fittings, like wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires, a dual-sided swingarm, a single exhaust system with a silencer mounted high on the right-hand side, a single seat, and a high-mounted front fender.
For suspension, the motorcycle packed a 47 mm cartridge-type, inverted, adjustable Showa telescopic fork on the front with 315 mm of travel and a Pro-Link adjustable shock on the rear with 320 mm wheel travel.
Regarding brake power, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 240 mm brake discs, one front and one rear, while the front one was engaged by a dual-piston caliper, offering optimum braking power.
As for power, the 2005 Honda CR250R had installed a 249cc two-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine at its core, boasting an output power of 59 hp at 8,500 rpm and 51 Nm (38 lb-ft) torque at 8,000 rpm.
