For the first time the CRF250RWE – inspired by the bikes raced by American Honda – is available in Europe. And it’s more than a little special. It’s a lot special. Of course, it starts out in the same pit box as the new CRF250R, with the same upgrades to chassis and engine. But then things go extra factory specification. A Yoshimura R&D™ exhaust is mated to a TwinAir™ filter boosting torque and top-end power. A hand ported intake manifold, unique ECU settings and hydraulic clutch system are part of the setup. Then there are the details you can see; like the Throttle Jockey seat cover, Metallic Red cylinder head cover, anodized aluminium fork caps and rear shock compression adjuster. The Showa rear shock also wears a titanium coated damper rod, the front forks Kashima-coated outer tubes and Titanium-coated slide pipes while the 110-section rear MX33 Dunlop™ tyre improves stability while sliding. Stunning graphics are the finishing, factory touch.
