Honda or yamaha motocross?

Question

hi i can't decide between CRF 250R and YZF 250... can you please help me. What are the prices of those in Canada? Which bike is better and holds longer?

Answer 1

There is ONLY one 250. See other answer above.

Answer 2

CRF250R hands down, they are awesome, I rode my friend's YZF250 once and it was c**p compared to my honda, the CRF is wayyyy better!

The yamaha also sounds bad

Answer 3

Both as good as each other.

Answer 4

Yamaha is better. It still uses McGraths design and it will last much longer

Answer 5

I race a CRF250R myself, it is not way better than the Yamaha and the Yamaha is not c**p. They are both great bikes and you will not go any faster or win more races because of the one you choose. Just pick the one you like. I know this sounds like a cop out, but honestly the bikes are that close. The above answer is total BS.

Answer 6

i have a crf 250 r and i love it, but both are so similar only semi pro/pro riders would be able to tell a diffrence that matters. choose on price or on how it feels when you sit on it at the dealer

Answer 7

i prefer Yamaha for its qualities and power:)

Answer 8

My sons both race the crf250r and have found it to be a reliable bike.  

As a beginner if you cannot decide which to get, just see what the best deal you can get on both is and decide that way.

Answer 9

my best friend races dirtbikes . he LOVES ktm . but if not ktm....i would say hondas ur best bet .

Answer 10

you asked an almost identical question less than a day ago whatever you choose you will probely be happy with as you are obviously a begginer and any bike will be ok

Answer 11

I race yamaha and loveeee them. I dont think i ever want anything else. But ive also heard Honda's are pretty much indestructible.  So you'd be making a good choice either way.  =]
