Overview

Introducing the 2017 Honda CRF50F, a delightful entry-level motorcycle designed specifically for young riders and those venturing into the world of off-road adventures. Priced at an accessible US$ 1,449, this agile enduro-offroad machine is a perfect blend of fun, reliability, and user-friendly features, making it an ideal choice for beginners looking to build their confidence on two wheels. The CRF50F embodies Honda's commitment to quality and performance, ensuring that every ride is a memorable one, whether it’s tearing through dirt trails or cruising around the backyard. At the heart of the CRF50F lies a potent 49cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that produces a thrilling yet manageable power output for novice riders. With a compression ratio of 10.0:1 and a smooth-running carburettor, this little powerhouse delivers responsive acceleration while maintaining exceptional fuel efficiency. The 3-speed automatic gearbox allows for seamless shifts, ensuring that riders can focus on mastering their skills without the distraction of manual clutch control. Its lightweight frame and low seat height of just 21.6 inches empower young riders to confidently navigate a variety of terrains, while the air-cooled engine maintains optimal temperatures, even during spirited rides. The CRF50F is packed with features that enhance both safety and rideability. The adjustable throttle limiter is a standout feature, allowing parents to set maximum speed limits as their young riders gain experience and confidence. The steel frame, combined with a monoshock rear suspension and 21.7mm inverted telescopic forks, provides excellent stability and handling, absorbing bumps and uneven terrain with ease. With a ground clearance of 5.8 inches, riders can tackle obstacles without worry. The classic Honda red and white color scheme adds a sporty touch, ensuring that the CRF50F stands out on any trail. **

Pros

  • User-Friendly: The automatic clutch and 3-speed gearbox make it easy for beginners to ride without worrying about shifting.
  • Adjustable Throttle Limiter: Parents can control speed limits, helping young riders build confidence safely.
  • Lightweight and Low Seat Height: At just 47kg and with a seat height of 21.6 inches, it's perfect for smaller riders.

Cons

  • Limited Power for Advanced Riders: While great for beginners, its 49cc engine may feel underpowered for more experienced young riders seeking higher performance.
  • Basic Features: Lacks advanced technology or high-end suspension components found in more premium models.
  • Kick Start Only: The absence of an electric start may deter some riders who prefer a more convenient starting method.
