The Honda CR85R was a small-displacement off-road motorcycle manufactured by Honda from 2004. It was part of the CR series and powered by a two-stroke engine. The bike was discontinued in 2007 when it was replaced by the CRF150R four-stroke machine.
In 2006, the Japanese motorcycle maker released the Honda CR85R Expert, a motorcycle created for the bigger riders. It was in its second production year and packed the same characteristics as the previous model without any changes whatsoever.
Compared to the base model, the Expert version was fitted with a longer swingarm and larger wheels, creating a higher ground clearance and seating position. In other departments, the bike was identical to the base model.
In the visual department, the motorcycle was fitted with standard features, such as wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires, a dual-sided swingarm, a high-mounted front fender, a single seat, and a single exhaust system with a high-mounted silencer.
The 2006 Honda CR85R Expert was set in motion by an 84cc two-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by a 28 mm piston-valve carburetor. It was assisted by a six-speed gearbox linked to the rear via a final chain drive.
The riding characteristics were offered by a 37 mm fully adjustable inverted Showa fork with 274 mm of travel and a Pro-Link swingarm tied to a fully adjustable Showa shock on the rear with 292 mm of travel.
