Honda CRF Mulai Masuk Eropa dan Akan Merambah India, Sebelum Masuk Indonesia Kita lihat Komparasinya Dengan KLX 250

Media India belakangan ramai dikejutkan dengan bebepa kali penampakan Honda CRF 250, karena begitu banyak yang merekam penampkan ini maka si CRF 250 ini menjadi isu kuat bahwa motor ini bakal masuk india. Sementara itu otomotif merilis berita bahwa motor ini kini bakal merambah Eropa setelah sebelumnya hanya ngaspal di Thailand dan Jepang. Selajutnya siapa tahu mongtor ini bakal ngaspal ke Indonesia, kan di Indonesia dah duluan ngaspal si KLX 250 dari Kawasaki. Nah mungkin ada sedikit gambaran tentang CRF 250 dikomparasikan dengan KLX 250 dari motorcycle.com berikut:

A. Komparasi Spek

The 2013 Honda CRF250L is an all-new lightweight dual-sport from Big Red, replacing the dated CRF230L.

CRF dan KLX ini sama-sama menggunakan liquid-cooled, 249cc Single, 6 speed gearbox. Si CRF tampil dengan oversquare ukuran 76.0mm x 55.0mm bore and stroke lalu Kawasaki KLX juga menggunakan engine oversquare, dengan bore dan stroke : 72.0mm x 61.2mm.

Five years ago the KLX250S was the head of the class for 250 dual-sports priced under $5000. The KLX remains an excellent choice; but Honda’s new 250 is capable and ready to usurp the Kawi’s leading position.

Beda lo gan spek pabrikan sama spek dyno:

B. Power

Utuk tenaga, masing masing memang tak jauh beda, di sekitar 20 horsepower yang muncrat di low- to mid-8000-rpm range.Sementara torsi Honda menghasilkan 14.0 ft-lbs pada 5800 rpm dan the Kawi 13.5 ft-lbs pada 7100 rpm. CRF memang lebih dulu menghntak gan.

The Honda and Kawasaki are well matched in terms of peak torque, but the Honda’s sooner-peaking torque is a useful asset, particularly in off-road environments.

The Kawasaki’s 249cc Thumper pumps out the same amount of peak horsepower and torque as the fresher CRF engine. The Honda, however, produces its peak torque earlier in the rev range.

C. Sensasi

Kata sumber ini meski dua motor ini sama-sama di kitaran 20an hp, namun injeksi CRF 250 memang jozz, sudah nendang sejak awal, “Although equal in displacement and nearly so in horsepower, the Honda’s fuel-injected Single is more eager to rev, which really helps accelerate a small-displacement motorcycle out of a tight corner,” said Motorcycle.com Content Editor, Tom Roderick.

Sementara KLX agak tertahan dikit baru kemudian juozz muncrat sampek jumping, “The Kawasaki’s power delivery is generally linear, but engine response at small throttle openings during on/off throttle transitions seem ever so slightly delayed, again likely due to lean jetting to meet modern emissions standards. If we owned a KLX, we’d definitely look into fitting it with a jet kit. But when the Honda starts instantly, and without thought on the rider’s part, well, why not have EFI…?”

Just 20 hp, but that’s still enough to act a fool!
