The 2025 SML 250 MX Shootout has come to a close and our wrap-up video revealed the details about our overall winner, and now it is time to visit each bike in detail and showcase the insight and opinions of our test riders. The 2025 Honda CRF250R boasts an all-new chassis and suspension package and it was well-loved by all of our test riders. If the Honda also received some engine updates and power increases to go along with the much-improved handling, we think it would have fared far better than fifth.
