Honda announced today its 2015 lineup of off-road models from the CRF450R to the CRF125F. Boasting a menagerie of performance updates, Honda’s dirtbikes offer a range of possibilities from beginner riders to pro-level enthusiasts.

CRF450R

The CRF450R incorporates numerous changes throughout the engine for 2015 to yield higher performance, added durability and an extra level of tuning adjustability.

The new Engine Mode Select button – an industry first among motocross machines – allows the rider to select one of three different EFI/ignition maps. An HRC accessory tuning tool can be used to program custom maps actuated by the Engine Mode Select button. A new cylinder head – easily identified by its right-side exhaust port – and new exhaust system plus revised fuel and ignition timing settings for the Dual-Timing PGM-FI fuel injection help generate more top-end power and added overrev, and peak power. A new KYB PSF air fork with high/low compression and rebound damping adjustments. New front/rear wave-style rotors with a larger 260mm front brake disc. New graphics for 2015.
Color: Red
Price: $TBD
Availability: September 2014

CRF250R

In 2014, the Honda CRF250R earned another AMA 250 Supercross championship. For 2015, the CRF250R offers a host of improvements, with a new-generation 49mm Showa Separate Function Fork, Triple Air Chamber (SFF-Air) air fork leading the way. This fork eliminates steel springs for less weight (2.8 pounds lighter) while offering a wider range of adjustments than a conventional spring fork. A redesigned muffler and new fuel map settings for the Dual-Timing PGM-FI fuel injection system increase engine performance. Like the CRF450R, the CRF250R also incorporates Honda’s new Engine Mode Select button that allows the rider to select one of three different EFI/ignition maps to match track/riding conditions. The CRF250R also features new front/rear wave-style rotors, a larger 260mm front disc brake and new graphics.

Price: $7599

CRF150R/CRF150RB-Expert

Honda’s CRF150R and CRF150RB-Expert are designed for serious amateur racers. This potent full-on race bike offers a 149cc liquid-cooled four-valve four-stroke engine, and plenty of race-tuned suspension travel front and rear.
Color: Red
Price: TBD
Availability: September 2014

CRF230F

The ease of electric starting and its easy-to-handle size make the CRF230F a great match for fun and off-road adventure. New styling for 2015 makes the resemblance to the CRF250R and CRF450R race bikes stronger than ever. (Photo not available at this time)

CRF150F

CRF125F/CRF125F Big Wheel

Designed for rider-friendly operation, the CRF125F and CR125F Big Wheel feature different wheel sizes to accommodate riders of varying size and skill level. With a seat height of 28.9 inches, the CRF125F places riders two inches closer to the ground than the Big Wheel, which caters to riders with a longer inseam. Both bikes feature a four-speed, electric-start 124.9cc single-cylinder SOHC four-stroke engine with loads of low-end grunt plus plenty of pull throughout the powerband. The chassis incorporates quality suspension and brake components front and rear, and both bikes are styled after Honda’s CRF motocross machines.
