If you want a lightweight dual sport trail bike that can handle a short commute in the week and then head into the countryside on green lanes at the weekend – this is it.

Good ergonomics , suspension a chassis means that the CRF is well balanced either on road when you’re sat down or off-road stood up. It weaves slightly at speeds over 65mph, but this could be just down to tyres.

Difficult to speak about long term reliability as it’s a brand new bike, but it feels typical Honda and high quality. If it’s anything like its predecessors the XL or XR250 it will last for years.

It’s an off road bike, so not masses available, but it has a neat digital dashboard with speed, tripometers and fuel gauge.
