Is it 2026 already? For part of Honda’s trailbike series it is, with the brand recently confirming the return of its beginner-friendly CRF-F models which include the CRF50F the CRF110F and the CRF125F. In case you’re wondering, the “F” designation signifies recreational off-road machines, as opposed to the competition ready R models.

All three dirt bikes are slated to appear in Big Red’s 2026 lineup, and none see any mechanical changes for the new model year, though the CRF125F models do get a longer front fender, so you can chalk that up as an improvement, we guess. We’re bummed to see the flagship CRF250F absent from this list; hopefully we’ll see it ease back in at some later point for 2026.

Part of the wee 50’s appeal is due to its lightweight design, durable build and low seat height, sure, but when you throw in a look that says ‘mini MXer,’ a simple, air-cooled 49cc single engine and no clutch to mess with, you can see why CRF50F scores as a great choice for your kid’s first dirt bike. 10-inch wheels, a 21.6 inch seat height and a kick-start round out the list of features. Alas, you won’t get a choice of colors as on last year’s models; this time out it’s red only for the 50F, which will be available in July with an MSRP of $1,899.

Going up to the next level of dirt-worthiness, you’ll find the CRF110F: the powersports industry’s top-selling dirt bike according to Honda. Here you step up to modern farkles like electric start and fuel injection, a bigger 14/12 wheelset, a larger 1-gallon fuel tank, and thankfully, longer travel suspension (4.3 inches up front). The 109cc air-cooled engine will give in-betweeners a nice, manageable power output and a 25.9 inch seat height keeps the intimidation factor low as well. Again, there’s only the red color available for the CRF110F, and it’ll be available in dealers this October for a listed price of $2,799.

Honda’s wildly popular CRF125F is a crowd favorite with beginners (and even vets on the hunt for a playbike), mainly thanks to its dimensions, comfortable suspension and manageable power output. The fuel-injected 125cc air-cooled single is smooth and predictable, while the midsize chassis makes for an easy reach to the ground for beginners, though still serves up ample ground clearance with a plusher suspension, and the capability to go on longer rides.

The CRF125F also comes a CRF125F Big Wheel version, which is now the largest model in the CRF-F family and wears slightly larger wheels (19/16-inch front/rear as opposed to 17/14) and a slightly taller seat height of 30.9 inches, all resulting in better ground clearance. Electric start, fuel injection, and an air-cooled engine mean that maintenance and operation are a breeze, too. Both the CRF125F and CRF125F Big Wheel are 50-state off-road legal and both only come in red. Prices start at $3,599 for the standard CRF125F, with an MSRP of $3,999 for the Big Wheel model, a $100 bump in price. You can see them in dealers this October.

There’s no CRF250F for 2026 (yet anyway) so the CRF125F Big Wheel slots in as the biggest model in the family.Honda
