1996 Cr250R

Today. the 1996 Honda CR250R remains one of the most iconic machines in motocross history. Ridden to Supercross glory by Jeremy McGrath. this steel framed beauty was the last of its breed and the end of an era. Mega-motor : In 1996. this was the ultimate motocross engine. Brutally fast. slick shifting and claw-hammer reliable. 250 two-strokes didn't get any better than this. Jack-of-all-trades: Lug it. clutch it. scream it till the cows come home; it didn't matter. the CR was ready to do battle no matter your preference. Blessed with perfectly positioned power and the ability to do in one shift what others did in two ( or even three ). the CR's power plant had all the bases covered in 1996. The 1966 CR250R remains the last of the truly "great" Honda two-stroke 250's. The arrival of the alloy framed '97 CR would signal the end of a dynasty reaching all the way back to 1983. They were not always the best at everything. but they were the best at the things that counted to hard-core racers. Nothing was faster. nimbler. or better built than a CR250R. If you were good enough for it. it was good enough for you.
