If you feel you're not ready for the big-bore motocross bikes, you could try and swing a leg over the 2009 CRF250R, one of Honda's iconic MX machines dripping with accolades in official racing championships and in more "friendly races". You're going to enjoy the amazing maneuverability of the CRF250R and it's lightweight constructiopn, two rather uncanny characters for a bike which feels like a much bigger one, from the power deployment point of view.
The outstanding performance is doubled by the Honda Progressive Steering Damper (HPSD), ensuring much more precise tracking on rough ground. A revised, narrower aluminium frame and the all-new Showa suspensions make the 2009 CRF250R the perfect machine for a holeshot victory. Cue the new bodywork and muffler and get ready for the adrenaline rush!
