Rode a 2022 Honda CRF250RX vs 2022 Honda CRF250R back to back on a short woods loop. Laptime and thoughts on each bike....
CRF250RX: 2:41
Suspension great for off road (plush with good hold up)
RX off road focused engine mapping: smoother and easy to find traction
RX Map 3 similar to R Map 1 so more aggressive map available
Brakes excellent
Light clutch pull
RX fuel tank extra width not so noticeable while riding
CRF250R: 2:38
Way more aggressive throttle response and power build, especially Map 3
Easy to notice stiffer fork/shock springs and moto suspension setting
Feels lighter and more playful/agile in motion
Free feeling engine with quick rev's and little compressions braking
The RX has a nice off road focused engine and suspension setting. The power is smoother and finds traction in Maps 1/2 while Map 3 is very close to the R Map 1 with more urgent RPM build and throttle response. I also like the softer RX suspension setting. For me the RX suspension on my R would be perfect! Nice to have choices between the R and RX with this all new CRF250 from Honda.
