2023 Honda CRF50F Features and Benefits

Built for the next generation of riders, the CRF50F is responsible for introducing countless young enthusiasts to the world of motorcycling. A reliable 49cc air-cooled four-stroke engine provides tractable power, while the shock and inverted fork deliver a comfortable, controlled ride. Available for 2023 in Red and a new White color, the CRF50F has a low seat height and automatic clutch that allow new riders to focus on the basics. Parents and guardians appreciate its unparalleled reliability, easy maintenance and year-round off-road-legal status in all 50 states, making the CRF50F the best-selling 50cc trail bike in the powersports industry.

ENGINE / DRIVETRAIN
