Low- and mid-range engine response is enhanced by new injection mapping settings, while a new exhaust silencer lowers noise levels. With its new damping characteristics, the suspension is optimized to enhance the machine's dynamic qualities.
equipped with a full range of features, the CRF 250 R showcases its legendary agility and reliability to drive to victory. Its cylinder head, camshaft and exhaust valve, revised in 2012, give it superior riding performance.
