Honda CRF250 Rally Review

There are certainly more comfortable bikes out there for long distances. I haven’t struggled on the CRF for comfort, but I believe a custom seat would make a big difference. For longer days (600km through China) I used “sweet cheeks”  throw-over canvas with two water bottles in them to make the seat wider. (Also if you get in a tight spot for water or fuel it can be a great asset!)

But in general there are no issues. It’s all about your riding style. If you’re an off-road rider then the seat doesn’t matter. And if you’re not in a rush then again, the seat doesn’t matter because it gives you an excuse to stop.
