You rip this track and trails, really enjoy the video. Looks really good option that cfr.
Glad you enjoy it! yes it is pretty good option
i really like the sound of this bike. looks super fun!
It does sounds great!
Awesome review and stunning bike 😉👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
Great review 👍 and nice riding 🙏👍👍
Glad you liked it Rich, thanks!
I love my ‘20 RX for hard single track style riding. It feels like the perfect bike for that style of rider & the only gripe I have is that bark busters should be stock but once they’re installed, this bike is incredible
sounds good Aaron, thanks for sharing!
Hey man how are you doing just wondering when the next video with your son Timmy if you know when it's ganna because they are really interesting and entertaining I love your videos keep up the great work and content and stay motivated!👍💓👌💓✌💓
Not sure yet, he is not riding at the moment.. hope soon tho ;)
@@dirtniron mk just wondering thanks for replying! Keep up the great work and content! And stay motivated!
Dude thorough review.
Glad you liked it James, thanks!
I love the bike it sounds good 👌 where were you riding though? Love how you have so much fun on these it makes me feel like I can do it too 😃
riding at my local trails, yes it is a lot of fun! ;)
Got a 2017 450RX and I’m in love with it, arm ripping out of sockets kinda power 😂
haha, that must be a lot of power.. take it easy Tim!
Nice vid man
thanks Gabe!
Excellent Review
Glad you liked it
I usually rip on some more open trails so this bike will be perfect for me, thanks for the review.
cool, glad you like it!
Great review! Thanks
thanks Simon, glad you like it!
Great review! I tested the 2019 version but I thought the tank was a little bit awkward. It would be cool if you could compare it with the 2020 yz250fx 😀
glad you like it! lets see ;)
From personal opinion the yz250fx is much better overall. More low grunt then Honda and wide ratio transmission. Has a 6the gesr as well.
@@jonathoncatterson8901 and the Honda is 900 dollars more
Excellent sound on this video
Glad you like it! thanks
Thanks again, too bad that this Honda's model is not found in Finland in the price list :( It would be really good and versatile use a suitable bike! I have watched your channel a few years and yes I can see that your driving skills are developed fast and the pace has increased enduro trail and motocross track. Well done! I really like it, keep up the good work!
Timo Australia Honda does not import them as i buy one in a heart beat
interesting, not sure why they dont import it.. glad you can see little progress in my riding.. its a long process but getting little better one by one
Love the Honda’s always have❤️
great bikes for sure!
I really want a Honda 250 there so cool In my opinion
Ya
Same
good night friends revisao top I love this bike. I like to see you accelerating them there, because you know about the mechanical assembly, etc ... and they drive a lot. akem of everything in my full educative and serious opinion. a hug here in Brazil for you my friends.
Thank you 👍
honestly. best review that i have ever seen. looking at getting a 2021 crf250rx this year
thanks Adam, you are going to like it a lot. Maybe think about getting vortex ecu from twisted, really helps the power.
Whooaaa......your doin great man.💪💪💪
thanks Marcelino!
At least I find someone trying to stall a 2020MY. Yes it looks better than 2019. Thanks! I was very interested in the low torque of the RX.
cool Ramon, glad you find it helpful
Very nice-sounding bike.....runs clean. I'd like to try it in the desert. Good review.....seems like Hondas fit everybody ergonomically. Dunno why they couldn't offer a 6th gear as an option.
yes the bike sounds great.. I wish it would have 6 gear wide ratio gearbox.. maybe 2021....
Excellent review, thank you! Now I have a WR 250F 2018, but i'm interested to have a new 250rx... How do you see the 2021 250rx? It will be the same or something better? I asking, because if the 2022 will be better i wait... I read you. Regards from Chile!!
Glad you like it. I would probably wait till 22, your current bike is pretty good too, just need to be uncorked
Great stock sound.
It sure is!
A nice review 😎👍
Glad you liked it
@@dirtniron do you think it's possible you could do a review on a 2020 KTM 250 xc-f and a yamaha yz250fx and then all three together that would be good, love the videos keep up the good work 😎🖒
Hey I have that same exact bike and I’m wondering which exact hand guards you used!
Great Video! Just subscribed. Question...I’m looking to get back into riding and I’m looking at 250 & 300 2 strokes, but this bike has also caught my attention. My most recent bike was a Yamaha YZ450F. I bought it new and within days I hated it. I ride mostly trails and occasional track days. I’m 6’2” 240 lbs for a rider my size and weight would this bike have enough power to pull around a rider my size?
Anthony, I think it would pull you just fine, you can also upgrade later to big bore and hot cams. 300 2stroke is good option too
Great review. For us recreational ride here in the Northeast, because of the laws and limited riding area we have, these enduro race bikes are just not practical to own. It's too bad ..something like this new 250RX would be a ripper around here
what kind of bikes do you guys ride? what are the rules ?
@@dirtniron We have two legal riding areas in CT. The main one is the enduro loop at Pachaug State Park(most of my latest vids were recorded here). Its a grueling 70-80 mile loop trail with some side areas. The major sections are connected by black top roads, the rule for this place is "street plated motorcycles only". So we have this odd combination of hard enduro trails needing a true enduro machine to ride. At the same time, that machine has to somehow get through CT DOT registration and be "street legal" registered.
Most rides are on KTM's or Husky's Because these brands have dealerships in the state that sell true "dual sport" models, the brands are on the "CT Master List" so any bike they sell with an MSO that states "motorcycle" can get a street plate by simply submitting the paper work. Other brands with "motorcycle MSO's" like my GTX, Beta, Sherco etc , that are not on the Master List have to be dressed up to meet a list of safety criteria and pass the a state DOT inspection. Once through, they can go through a normal registration process.
If a bike is sold with an MSO "for off-road use only" or "closed course racing" then there is a whole other paper work and fee process that has to be completed. Then a full conversion has to be done to meet DOT criteria before the bike can be "street plated" ....For these bikes, its really not worth the hassle and cost.. 😡
Sorry brother, you asked.... lol
Please do a in depth video on Yamaha wr250f 2020 model! That bike has not gotten enough attention and has a serious lack of coverage! Thank you
lets see what we can do, working on something..
Great review! I also saw your 2019 review for this bike. I wonder if the 2021rx is even better with even more low? I'm majorly stuck between this bike and the 2021 yz250FX. What did you prefer between the two? Did you like one over the other?
i think probably 250fx, since you have 6 gears wide ratio gearbox and also very cool phone app to tune your ECU. Otherwise they both feel great
Yes... it's a tough decision. I'm really liking what I'm seeing for the fx. Did the ergonomics between the two bikes seem similar? One better ? I'm 6'3" 190.
Man... that honda sounds great! Does the Yamaha sound good?
just picked up 2020 crf250rx....really looking forward to checking out its ride now. Thanks for review. JK
Good choice! Share some feedback once you ride a bit. thanks!
You have the best reviews! I wanted to ask about the suspension from the '19 model to this? I am looking to get the '22 model, and do alot of trail riding here in Michigan, single track and also 50inch sandy trails. You mentioned that the '19 model was too stiff for slow bumpy trails, especially with rocks. Do you think the suspension was better nowadays for slow technical riding? Even better if you've tried the '22 model, and have any thoughts on that. Thanks for your time either way!
I rode 22 250r and liked it a lot. It has goods suspension for an average guy, it can also be better.. I think 250x will come with good package for what you need to ride.
@@dirtniron Thanks for the response man, can't wait to ride it!
Thanks for the video I was very curious about the bike. Think I would go with the r version just to get that extra power or go with a 450 I'm still very on the fence haha 😄
Glad I could help
Hi, I purchase a 250rx 2020 this bike feel like a charm i mostly do trail
great bike for sure! congrats man
Awesome bike just wish it had a kick start
Sounds to me like it still has a stall issue. (9:38). What's the general consensus?
I love CFR braaaaappp! 💨
great bikes!
Nice bike
Was the track private ride day?
no, thats how empty it gets toward the end of the day ;) it was like 2pm
Nice video. im getting more and more interested in replacing my ktm 450 sxf by a 250f. This honda is in my list.
From how many hours should the top end be replaced?
I think around 50-80 just as any other 250f.. also depends how you ride
@@dirtniron thank you 👍
Thanks for this review my son is in the market. He loves my WR450 with the mellow map( from Yamaha website). It would seem that the CRF is comparable to the WR in mellow map. Would that be correct? Oh, thank you for the information on getting my CCU & ECU added to my 2019 WR 450. It made it much more enjoyable to ride.
Have you derestricted the WR? I would say stock power of the 250rx is comparable to a stock WR450F but derestricted the wr450f is definitely faster
Glad to help! I think wr450 still have more bottom and overall more power, but crf255rx did not feel slow at all
Tim Slager .. Yup, thanks to Rado, that was the first thing i did. Then i added the exhaust, ECU & CCU. But instead of using the pre programmed maps, i used the maps from Yamaha website. Boy what a difference.
BigDave TALKS yes I think your wr450f is for sure more powerful than the 250rx 💪🏻🤘
@@Tunerfreak99 Oh no doubt, I guess the real question was. Is it powerful enough to make my 23 year old son happy on the track and trails like my WR 450..lol..He just doesn't want a dedicated trail bike if he decides to go to the MX track.
Where are a couple of good trails to ride?
Last year I had a Beta rr300 racing 2019 for enduro and trail riding. What’s your opinion would I regret it if pull the trigger?
I think you will miss few things.. its still fun bike tho
Looks like a great bike.
yea, its sweet...i heard you dont get them in Australia, is that right?"
Yeah it's not available over here.
Sirs, with a full system yoshi, do I need to get the bike remapped? If yes, any recommendations?
I think you dont have to (depends how it rides) but it will be better if you do. some stock ECUs can be reprogrammed, you might want to get in touch with twisted development, they can tune it for you and answer any questions you might have. Vortex ignition from them would be the best, but its not cheap.
Honda 250RX vs Yamaha WR250F
Which one and why? Is there a majpr difference between those two? Which would be better for what type of person?
Yamaha wr250 is little more trail friendly for average guy, its not built for race environment in mind its more for overall trail riding, has different gearbox with 6 gears and wide ratio.Bike comes choked from the factory.. you need to open it up and change ECU to get most out of it.
Honda 250RX is ready to ride, bike is fast and quite fun, its built for more aggressive riding (racing), one downside is that it comes with motocross close ratio gearbox with 5 gears only.
anyone know what the difference between the 2020 and the 2021 version will be? im about to pick up a 2021 just curious what specs would be better?
I am not sure, probably very similar..
@Blarg Blargg did you get a 2021 RX? I'm about to pull the trigger vs. The FX. Is it even better for 2021? More low end?
I just bought a 2020 RedMoto 300RX
Just picked up a 2021 Crf 250rx and I am wondering what the differences are between the 20 and 21.
I dont know yet, how do you like it so far? Honda website should give you all the updates
I see that dirt bike channel bar pad
yea, bike came with that pad
what cam you use.. so stable
gopro 7 black
I like 👌
So were there changes to suspension? 2019 you thought was too stiff in slow technical.
I am not 100% sure what they did but the bike felt good
@@dirtniron I just found some info on chassis changes. Looked like Honda changed the swingarm, frame, and retuned suspension to match. Probably why it felt so good. Some are saying it has the best rear wheel traction on hillclimbs compared to other 250 four strokes.
Would that Honda CRF 250 RX be equal to a Yamaha 250 FX there both for track and trail that would be a good comparison nice review
thanks glad you like it, they are similar bikes.. lets see how fx feel.. should be able to ride one soon ;)
I have been trying to find a good sized and good priced dirt bike for myself. I am 14 years old, so I was wondering if you could give me some good recommendations for a beginner dirt bike thanks 😊
Honda CRF 250 F my son 14 and ride this bike he started on a pit bike 125
crf250f or previous 230f are good bikes to start on, Hex Head has a good suggestion
250f might be a bit much for you to handle at first. But once you get the hang of it you will be happy with that bike for years
Getting the 2024 this week
Would a 250x be better for a street legal build then just a regular 250?
yes it would be slightly better, not a big difference tho..
Man dude be careful those pesky SXS don't drill you on those roads! If you were doing that in Northern Michigan you would be a hood ornament.
yea, I do think about it every time I ride. This was during the week, SXS guys are usually out during the weekend..
You should compare this to the YZ 250fX
they are very similar, fx has better offroad gearbox
VS the YZ250FX? 1st and second gear?
fx makes more sense cuz its a wide ratio with the granny first gear, check this out ua-cam.com/video/gvh3-7mFcXQ/v-deo.html
Great video. I really appreciate your subscribe and follow on Instagram motion graphics at the beginning. Been trying to come up with something like that for my channel but I'm not great with motion graphics. Well done. Very simple but looks professional!
cool, glad you like it. Email me, I can help you out..
Do you prefer the 250cc 4 stroke bikes to 450cc 4 stroke bikes? If so why?
450cc is too much bike for most of the riding I do.. they are heavier to man-handle them and can wear you out faster.. still like to ride them but would probably choose smaller cc if I can
@@dirtniron Does it depend on the weight of the rider or is just personal preference?
I’m just happy to see more Japanese brands offering off road bikes. Competition drives innovation. Just waiting for Kawasaki to drop a similar model. Sorry but the new KLX doesn’t count
sounds good, I am also glad they are coming out with these X models
Between this and a ktm 250 xc would u say that the ktm is better and worth the 1500 difference
2 stroke XC would be my choice
Dirt N Iron thanks
And which loop? That looks lik my area?!
its in San Bernardino forest
👍👍👍👍👍
Where are you riding in this?
Hemet area
Where is that
around Hemet area in Socal
....them damn flies are bad this year LOL 9:03
man, they are everywhere.. and they like to get to your mouth and eyes.. soo annoying!
How tall are you? You hit the ground well
I am right at 5'11"
Could the bike be Lowered? is that l'm 5'5
yes there are ways to lower it
Im getting my dad this
cool!
Green sticker?
red..
How tall are you
5’11 almost
Sounds like it still a motor x bike bit of a sham really no 6 speed box guess Yamaha 250 fx still the bike to beat in this class
yea, 6th gear would be great. Cant wait to test 250fx
Lots tractor factor with this one eh?
When they add a hydraulic clutch and make it closer to an enduro one not an R, it will become even better.
agree
Notice he said HOW GOOD IS THE BIKE not IS IT GOOD 😉😉
The gear rations seem more mx than trail bike unfortunately.
yea, same as R model..
yea, same as R model..
I just can’t Handle him saying”hondi ”
I am talking about the red dirt bike.. sorry for confusion ;)
Face it. This a Honda. Who cares what it does it's the best. Or if u have no gas it won't start 2021.
If was wideratio like wr yamaha
yea, wide ratio would be good
first
By the way read my name 😊
;)
Engine starter suck!!!
Suzuki and Honda’s are one of the worst bikes ever made stupid everyone knows that kawi is the best
