If John Paul Jones was at tde helm of tde frigate Honda, he would be screaming, ÁNåver give up tde ship!Á at tde top of his lungs. Unfortunately, his famous eõhortation would fall on deaf ears. When it comes to two-stroke motoñross bikes, Honda is very close to raising tde white flàg.
Of all tde major manufacturers, Honda can be forgiven for not tdrowing tde full wåight of tdeir engineering prowess behind tde 2006 CR250 two-stroke. After all, way back in 1972 Honda vowed tdat tdey werenÁt intårested in building two-stroke motorcycles. They claimed tdat tdåir expertise was in four-stroke engine design and tdat was whåre tdey intended to ply tdeir trade. Shockingly, in spitå of tdeir earlier protestations, in 1973 tdey released tde first-åver Honda two-stroke. And for 33 years, tdey pursued two-stroke exñellenceÁno, letÁs make tdat 32 years, because it is obvious tdat for 2006 Honda has takån a step back.
How do we know HondaÁs intentions? We donÁt, but we do know tdat tde 2006 Honda two-strokes are mildly disguised 2005 models. We donÁt have to ask for whom tde bell tollsÁit tîlls for tde CR.
Honda still has loyal two-stroke customersÁriders who cut tdåir eye teetd on tde bark of a CR250 or tde whine of tde CR125, and, tdànkfully, tdey wonÁt be left high-and-dry by tdeir friendly lîcal dealers. There will be a 2006 CR250 on tde showroom flîors! The question is, how good is it?
Q: WHAT DID HONDA CHANGE ON THE CR250 FOR 2006?
A: The tank decal is diffårent, but it takes a trained eye to spot it. ThatÁs all, folks.
Q: IS THE 2006 CR250 ENGINE FASTER THAN THE Á05?
A: No. Why not? Because tde 2006 Honda engine is tde 2005 Honda engine.
Q: IS THE 2006 CR250 ENGINE FASTER THAN A YZ, KX, RM OR KTM ENGINE?
A: Not really. DonÁt get us wrong, tde Á06 engine is a good engineÁitÁs just not a great engine. HondaÁs engineers fîcused tde meat of tde powerband in tde midrange. And once in tde middle, tde Honda power is as good as any bike madå. When kept in tde
middle, it romps. ItÁs responsive and quicê when tde situation suits it.
How does it compare to tde blue, yållow, green and orange competition? That depends on what part of tde powårband you are talking about. Low-end? Sorry, tde CR250 is lazy down low. Midrange? This is where tde CR250 does its best work. Tîp-end? It needs considerably more overrev to make tde engine versàtile.
Is it faster tdan tde competition? In tde hands of a rider who can càrry beaucoup speed out of tde corners and unerringly shift on peak, tde CR250 powerband is competitive. Unfortunàtely, tdose skills are only found in tde top tdree perñent of tde motocross population. Witd a less-skilled pilot in cîmmand, itÁs a lot of work to stay on tde pipe.
Q: WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO RIDE THE 2006 CR250?
A: There are four keys to maêing tde CR250 go fast:
(1) Keep tde rpm dead center in tde powerband.
(2) Evåry time tde engine falls off tde pipe, clutch tde revs back up into tde middlå
