2019 Honda CRF250RX Overview

Honda CRF250RX is an enduro / off-road motorcycle, displacing 249 cc. Power comes from a Single cylinder, four-stroke engine running Double Overhead Cams/Twin Cam (DOHC) valve actuation, a compression ratio of 13.9:1. Bore and stroke come in at 79 x 50.9 mm. On the road, the 2019 CRF250RX tips the scales at 110.7 kg, carries an 8.52-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 960 mm and spans a 1481 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 58.8 kg lighter than the average enduro / off-road motorcycle in our database. The full 2019 Honda CRF250RX spec sheet below covers every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes.

2019 CRF250RX - Pros & Cons

Strengths

Fuel injection: Fuel injection means consistent cold starts and clean throttle response without the fussiness of a carbureted setup.
Strong front braking: Stopping power up front is strong thanks to the single disc setup, with plenty of room to upgrade further with braided lines.

Considerations

Tall seat height: At 960 mm, shorter riders will likely be on tiptoes at a standstill - worth sitting on one before you buy.
Modest fuel capacity: Range between stops is limited by the 8.52-litre tank - plan fuel stops accordingly on longer routes.
Chain final drive upkeep: Budget time for routine chain maintenance - it's cheap to replace but needs consistent attention to avoid premature sprocket wear.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Fuelling & injector care

The fuel injection on the CRF250RX needs little beyond good fuel and periodic use of an injector-cleaner additive - no jetting or float-bowl maintenance to worry about.

Valve clearance checks

With Double Overhead Cams/Twin Cam (DOHC) valve gear, the CRF250RX needs periodic clearance checks; caught early they're a cheap adjustment, left unchecked they accelerate valve seat wear.

Brake disc and pad wear

Braking up front comes from single disc with two-piston calipers - solid stopping power, with disc and pad wear best checked on the same schedule as tyre changes.

Suspension condition on used examples

The CRF250RX's suspension runs 49mm fully adjustable leading-axle inverted telescopic Showa SPG coil-spring fork at the front. The rear uses Pro-Link system; fully adjustable Showa single shock. Fork-seal condition and rear linkage play are the two things worth checking before buying used.

Final drive maintenance

The CRF250RX uses chain final drive, which is cheap to replace but needs regular cleaning, lubrication and tension checks to get a full service life out of the sprockets.

Frame & chassis check

Built around an Aluminium twin tube, the CRF250RX's chassis is straightforward to inspect: look for corrosion, cracks or repair welds around stress points like the head-stock and swingarm mounts.

Low-speed handling

110.7 kg keeps the CRF250RX easy to move around in tight spaces, car parks and on the stand alike.

CRF250RX - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

Before handing over money for a used 2019 Honda CRF250RX with its 249 cc enduro / off-road, cover the fundamentals: service book and oil change history, drivetrain wear, and any sign of oil weeping around the casings. This model runs chain final drive, so check chain slack and sprocket tooth profile specifically - a worn sprocket is a cheaper fix now than after it's chewed up the next chain. Now 7 years old, this enduro / off-road is as likely to show age-related wear (perished rubber, seized fasteners, degraded seals) as mileage-related wear. Cold-starting it yourself tells you a lot - a healthy CRF250RX should catch quickly and settle into a smooth idle.

Oil and filter changes

Nothing protects the CRF250RX's 249 cc single cylinder, four-stroke like disciplined oil changes - stay on the manufacturer's schedule (roughly every 6,000 km or annually). The sump holds 1.80 litres, so budget for that volume of quality motorcycle-specific engine oil. With a 13.9:1 compression ratio, running the octane grade specified in the manual matters more than on a lower-compression engine. Match the viscosity grade to what the owner's manual specifies, not what's cheapest.

Fuel system care

Fuel injection on the CRF250RX needs little attention beyond decent fuel and an occasional system-cleaner additive. Anything left standing for three months or more should have its fuel drained and replaced before it varnishes the injectors.

Valve clearance service

Valve clearances are easy to overlook on a used CRF250RX since a bike out of spec doesn't always feel obviously wrong - but the wear it causes is real. Ask the seller for documentation before assuming it's been done.
