Honda CRF250 Rally vs Honda GL1800 Gold Wing

ESTIMATED SIMULATION

Run the comparison →

The Honda CRF250 Rally (2026) and the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda CRF250 Rally is a enduro bike with 249 cc, 24.1 hp and 153 kg; the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing is a touring bike with 1,833 cc, 124.7 hp and 393 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 105.9 hp/ton versus 266.5 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing is 152% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda CRF250 Rally covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 7.61 s and the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing in 4.46 s; the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing is quicker by 3.15 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 46.8 m for the Honda CRF250 Rally (with ABS) and 41.0 m for the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing (with ABS). The Honda GL1800 Gold Wing stops 5.9 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 123 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 207 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for both. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.

Data sources and calibration

Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
