– 2017 CRF50 Kids Dirt Bike Details: Price, Seat Height, Weight, HP & TQ Performance + More! –

Widely recognized as the quintessential mini bike, the CRF50F is Honda’s longest-running off-road model and the choice of first-time riders the world over. For decades, Honda has offered a full line of off-road bikes stair-cased in size and displacement to meet the specific needs of riders just entering the sport. The renowned CRF50F has long served as an incredibly suitable and efficient first step for beginning riders thanks to a strong and tough 49cc four-stroke engine, automatic clutch and three-speed gearbox, plus an inverted fork, and its small overall size and light weight simplify transport. With credentials like these, it’s no wonder the dependable CRF50F has been the bike of choice for beginners for more than 40 years.  Its inverted fork, 49cc four-stroke engine, easy-shifting three speed gearbox with automatic clutch and low seat height make the CRF50F a cinch to ride.

What does the “automatic clutch” on the CRF50F mean exactly? The automatic clutch means you don’t have to worry about using a clutch to ride the machine. You do still have to change gears though and that’s where it confuses some people but thanks to the auto clutch you don’t have to worry about stalling the engine when coming to a complete stop nor do you have to use the clutch to change gears. They do make training wheels for the CRF50 too that are very popular if your little-one isn’t tall enough just yet or isn’t balanced enough to hold the CRF50 upright without a little assistance.
