Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate and experienced off-road riders who can manage a tall, firm-suspension enduro machine with a manual clutch and no ABS.
PurposeBuilt purely for trail riding, technical enduro sections, and off-road competition rather than any road-going use.
Rider FitThe tall 958mm seat height and light 115kg dry-oriented weight favor taller or more athletic riders comfortable standing on the pegs for extended periods.
CharacterA punchy, high-revving single-cylinder off-roader with long-travel adjustable Showa suspension that rewards aggressive, active riding over rough terrain.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable street commuter, a highway tourer, or a machine that can easily carry a passenger.

2014 Honda CRF250X Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 958mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with cannot reach comfortably on the 2014 Honda CRF250X, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
