Long-Term Honda CRF250L Review: The Dual Sport Motorcycle That is Great at ALMOST Everything

Three years ago, I made one of the best decisions of my motorcycling career: I bought and brought home my 2016 Honda CRF250L. Now that I've had it for 3+ years, I thought it might be cool to share my thoughts in a long-term Honda CRF250L review. There are a lot of dual sport bikes and dual sport motorcycle reviews out there, but the Honda CRF250L is, in my opinion, truly a special dual sport motorcycle. It may be the best off road motorcycle for a new rider out there. It's reliable, capable, inexpensive to buy and own, and is really a gateway to all kinds of motorcycle adventures, both those you know you want to have and those you don't even know exist yet. As a Honda CRF 250L owner for several years now, I figure my insight into the good and bad features of this legendary dual sport motorcycle might be helpful for anyone looking for the best dual sport motorcycles for beginners. The Honda CRF250L isn't perfect. It can't really handle the most hardcore off road or trail riding, but it is otherwise a solid jack of all trades dual sport motorcycle that you will be very happy with long term.
