Honda has kept us in the dark for weeks now, releasing only a sneak preview of the front-end of the 2021 CRF250L and RALLY models early in November, and then more comprehensive specs (in Japanese) on the 13th of November (see here).
I posted a video where I chat about 7 big updates on the 2021 CRF250L and Rally models (see below).
Then, Honda launched the CRF300L and 300L Rally in Thailand during the same time. The question on everyone’s lips are, when are we getting the 300’s in the rest of the world, specifically the U.S.?
2021 CRF250L and CRF250 RALLY
These specs are for the 2021 CRF250L and CRF250 Rally. Since the press release from Honda Japan, news of the CRF300L and 300 Rally has surfaced in Europe as well (see here). The question now is, will the U.S. market get the updated 250 models, or the new 300s?
