\"Before<\/p>\nBefore you get to ride this 2025 Honda CRF250RWE, you\u2019ll want to check in with Honda\u2019s CRF-F bikes first. (Honda\/)<\/caption>\n

American Honda released its 2025 lineup of CRF dirt bikes<\/a>, complete with all the HRC-inspired R models. But before anyone launches themselves at heaven and earth aboard competition-ready MX<\/a> hardware like the Honda CRF450R <\/a>or CRF250RWE, they\u2019ll learn the art of dirt on the CRF250F<\/a>, CRF125F<\/a>, CRF110F<\/a>, and CRF50F<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For 2025, all four novice trail bikes are unchanged from 2024, save for updated HRC-derived graphics. So what\u2019s new? That would be you, the first-time dirt rider looking for guidance on Big Red\u2019s trail offerings. Historically, Honda<\/a>\u2019s superpower has been making new riders with accessible, smartly priced new dirt bikes<\/a>. A lifetime of off-road<\/a> fun (and brand loyalty) starts on the ground floor with fuel injection, user-friendly sizes, and conservatively tuned rigs for beginner riders<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Usually, we start at the top of the product sheet. But let\u2019s shake things up and start at the beginning, where kid-friendly, muddy fun begins. Let\u2019s dive in.<\/p>\n

\"Motocross<\/p>\nMotocross dreams can start here: the 2025 Honda CRF50F, in red. (Honda\/)<\/caption>\n

\"Perhaps<\/p>\nPerhaps some \u201990s splashiness might inspire: the 2025 Honda CRF50F, in white. (Honda\/)<\/caption>\n

2025 Honda CRF50F<\/p>\n

In life, you only get one first dirt bike. Better make it count. If you\u2019re raising the next Jett Lawrence (2023 AMA Pro Motocross, 2024 AMA Supercross<\/a> champ), their brand loyalty and your parental aspirations start here. The Honda CRF50F gets a 49cc air-cooled four-stroke SOHC single-cylinder engine with classic kickstart, a carburetor, three gears, and no pesky clutch. Front and back 10-inch wheels yield a low 21.6-inch seat height, with 3.8 inches of travel in front and 2.8 inches for the rear. A 111-pound curb weight isn\u2019t the lightest, but easy enough for any parent to help with inevitable spills. A 0.7-gallon tank (with 0.2-gallon reserve) should make for a full afternoon of dirt instruction that\u2019s off-road legal, year-round in all 50 states.<\/p>\n

For comparison, Yamaha<\/a> offers the shaft-drive, fully automatic two-stroke PW50<\/a> ($1,849 for 2024 MY) with an 18.7-inch seat height and mag wheels. And it weighs just 90 pounds. But the mighty CRF50F nails the look and feel of \u201cminiature MX\u201d with spoked wheels and high pipe, so you be the judge of what\u2019s best for your budding motocross star. Regardless, both feature kickstarting, which is obviously an important life skill. Fun fact: The comparable Suzuki<\/a> DR-Z50<\/a> ($2,579 for 2024 MY) offers electric start, in addition to kickstarting.<\/p>\n
