The CR250M Elsinore began selling in 1973. It had a two-stroke engine and was one of the first of its class and set the standard for two-stroke motorcycle development. In 1974 and 1975, the CR250M design changed little. In 1978, Honda revised the CR250M and renamed it the CR250R, the R standing for race. In 1981, Honda introduced a new suspension. The 1984 model had a new hydraulic front disc brake, and a new exhaust valve. Between then and 1990 the CR250R had minor changes such as hydraulic rear brake, Showa front suspension, and a bigger carburettor.

Having been a part of a private collection of machines, this Honda has been on display since it was purchased. An ideal motorcycle for many off-road events, this example will require light recommissioning before a new owner can use to its full potential, due to it having been stood for a while.
