Honda CRF50F, model year 2023

Chassis

With a layout designed for children and a low seat, the CRF50F is nothing for novice riders to worry about. The steel frame and reinforced swing arm offer an excellent balance of strength and handling. An inverted telescopic fork with a height of 9.4 cm gives young riders confidence, which is supported by a center rear shock absorber. The result is pleasant and predictable handling.

Drum brakes on the front and rear wheels ensure sufficient stopping power.

The CRF50F proudly claims its pedigree. With a fairing inspired by the CRF450R, a narrow (11 cm) and low (548 mm) seat and a slim fuel tank, this bike offers excellent comfort and mobility for a wide range of young riders.

The motocross handlebars are equipped with a soft guard element in the middle and quality grips that increase control over the machine. Folding serrated footbed offers secure support even on muddy terrain, the plastic fenders are strong and durable.

For 2023, the CRF50R is available in a signature red color with bold graphics that draw on Honda’s off-road pedigree.

For newcomers to the motorcycle world, fun is the top priority, while older people usually emphasize reliability and ease of use. The CRF50F excels in two ways.

The 49cc CRF50F SOHC four stroke engine offers smooth power and is easy to use. Bore and stroke are set at 39 x 41.4mm, while a compression ratio of 10:1 ensures good performance and easy kick-start. The 11mm piston carburetor gives the rider excellent throttle response and response throughout the rev range, while the low fuel consumption ensures more fun with every tank.

The adjustable gas limiter contributes to better driving safety, and the closed crankcase ventilation system protects the engine oil from contamination.

CD ignition is maintenance free and the engine is equipped with an automatic cam chain fastener for maximum durability. Permanent transmission is ensured by a durable 420 cm chain, which is reliable and easy to maintain. The air filter is easy to access and wash.

The CRF50F features a smoothly shiftable three-speed transmission and an easy-to-operate automatic clutch. Keyless ignition and a quiet and efficient exhaust also contribute to peace of mind.
