 To secure the appropriate riding pal for everybody in the clan, perhaps your
family should meet the Honda CRF family of dirt bikes geared to every age and
skill level. Each member is loaded with cool features and powered by a
single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with chain final drive.
The little guy
is the CRF50 ($1,249), a child-sized machine with a 49cc engine and a
sophisticated inverted fork. Most importantly for the kids, it weighs just 104
pounds dry, features an ultra-low 21.6-inch seat height, and has a three-speed
transmission with automatic clutch for easy riding. (Click image to enlarge)
 For the bigger kids,
consider that the CRF100F ($2,249) offers a 99cc engine with a broad powerband
and a seat height of 30.9 inches. They’ll appreciate the control available
through the manual clutch and five-speed transmission. For 2005, the 100F gets a
retooled suspension and new racebike-inspired CRF graphics. (Click image to enlarge)
Those who
are starting to get serious will be interested in the CRF230F ($3,499), a
full-sized bike with a 233cc engine and six-speed transmission. For comfort and
control, it offers 9.5 inches of front suspension travel, and 9.0 inches in the
rear. All riders will appreciate the electric starter.
 Finally, the
experienced rider/racer will gravitate toward the CRF250X ($6,199), a full-sized
bike for serious pilots. It’s powered by a 249cc engine with five-speed
transmission, and offers 12.4 inches of suspension travel front and rear. The
250X weighs 250 pounds dry for easy handling in the dirt, and that 37.9-inch
seat height means that only the long of leg should apply. (Click image to enlarge)
Rock-reliable
and easy to maintain, these CRF siblings will help build skills and provide
years of off-roading fun. And like they say, the family that plays together
stays together.
