HONDA CRF80F (2011-2012) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Japanese motorcycle maker Honda released the 2011 Honda CRF80F, an off-road, small-displacement machine created for young riders who wanted to take the motocross world to the next level. The 2011 Honda CRF80F was for sale at an MSRP of $2,400.

The Honda CRF was a series of four-stroke motocross motorcycles manufactured and marketed by Honda since 2000 as a successor to the Honda CR series. The CRF450R was the first of the series, followed by the CRF250R.

The 2011 model year was the same as previous models, offering the same technical, performance, and visual specifications without any significant modifications.

For suspension, the bike was fitted with a 27 mm leading-axle Showa fork on the front with 140 mm wheel travel and a Pro-Link swingarm with a single Showa shock absorber on the rear, providing 109 mm of travel.

An expandable drum braking unit, both front and rear, achieved the braking power, offering optimum stopping performance.

In the performance department, the 2011 Honda CRF80F had installed an 80cc four-stroke air-cooled single-cylinder engine, fed by a 20 mm piston-valve carburetor and assisted by a five-speed manual transmission linked to the rear wheel through a chain drive.

Aesthetically, the motorcycle packed standard fittings such as a high-mounted front fender, a single seat, a high-mounted, blacked-out exhaust system, a dual-side swingarm, side panels with CR-styled decals, and wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires.
