Is the CRF250L's fuel injection a big advantage over carbureted dual sports?
A big selling point of the Honda CRF250L is its fuel injection system, which is touted as a big improvement over carbureted dual sport bikes such as the Suzuki DRZ400S or Yamaha XT250. Supporters suggest that fuel injection leads to better cold starts and smoother performance in various altitudes, moreover, it allows fuel consumption reduction. But there are some riders who prefer the simplicity and ease of field repair that carburetors afford, especially as used in adventure riding over remote areas. Consequently, there has been ongoing debate about the pros and cons of fuel injection for dual sport use, and the long term reliability, and ability to fix things on the trail.
I can say that, as someone who’s owned both carbed and fuel injected dual sports, the CRF250L’s fuel injection is a game changer. There is no more fiddling with chokes in the cold mornings or rejetting for altitude changes. It just works, every time.
