The 2026 bike intros just keep coming! Last week, Kris Keefer and Simon Cudby went out to Glen Helen Raceway in California for the 2026 Honda CRF450R and CRF250R bike intro. Look, there truly are no changes to these bikes—as admitted by Honda themselves—but Keefer still is able to provide insight on both the CRF450R and CRF250R for you weekend warriors.
Keefer brings in Eddie Laret to help break down some of their thoughts the CRF450R, which they note is a very reliable machine. Is this machine for you? Hear the duo’s feedback and changes to see what tweaks you Honda owners can do to make your ride just a little more comfortable.
What does the current generation CRF250R do well? What does it not do well? Keefer brings in Gardner Tarlow to give thoughts on the small bore machine. Plus, some insight from Aden Keefer as well.
