Since January 1997, Honda has offered the new and latest generation of the CRM250 model. The model changes its name - '''Honda CRM250AR'''. The motorcycle is equipped with a new larger engine (246 → 249 cm³) and a new carburetor - fuel efficiency increases by 32%, and CO2 emissions are reduced by 50%. The engine becomes even more flexible. The rigidity of the frame and chassis has been increased (the suspension configuration has been optimized for a more comfortable ride on bad roads). The power of the headlight is increased (35 / 36.5W → 55 / 60W). New unique motorcycle skin and AR stickers.
'' <'AR 2-stroke engine technology ''> '' '' The main principle of AR technology is to improve the combustion of the fuel mixture in all engine operating modes, especially at moments of minimum load (small opening of the throttle), when part of the fuel simply does not have time to burn. AR technology involves the use of the phenomenon of self-ignition (when the flash of the fuel-air mixture occurs without the participation of a spark plug), I control this process with a special ARC valve installed at the outlet. This valve changes the ignition timing, controlling the remaining unburned mixture in the cylinder and the initial pressure. As a result, the use of this system significantly increases fuel economy and engine efficiency, and reduces harmful emissions. ''
1999 was the last year of production of the Honda CRM250, after which it finally left the market and did not receive further development. Tightening environmental standards forced motorcycle manufacturers to abandon civil (non-sports) motorcycles with 2-stroke engines, even though the technologies of that time already made it possible to build 2-stroke engines with a long resource, good fuel efficiency, environmental friendliness and, at the same time , simplicity and high characteristics that are not inferior to high-powered 4-stroke versions (which had a small resource and high maintenance costs).
