Honda CRF250 Rally vs Yamaha XMAX 250

The Honda CRF250 Rally (2026) and the Yamaha XMAX 250 (2025) 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 Yamaha XMAX 250 is a scooter with 250 cc, 22.4 hp and 183 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 105.9 hp/ton versus 86.8 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda CRF250 Rally is 22% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda CRF250 Rally covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 7.61 s and the Yamaha XMAX 250 in 11.65 s; the Honda CRF250 Rally is quicker by 4.03 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 45.2 m for the Yamaha XMAX 250 (with ABS). The Yamaha XMAX 250 stops 1.6 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 123 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 126 km/h (GPS measurement).

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 the Honda CRF250 Rally and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Yamaha XMAX 250.
