Honda CRF230M Motorcycle - Street (2009)

The 2009 Honda CRF230M was introduced as an all-new model for that year, designed as a street-ready supermoto variant derived from the CRF230L. This model is equipped with a dependable 223cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, producing approximately 18.6 to 19 horsepower at 8000 rpm. It features a 30mm CV carburetor for crisp throttle response and a smooth-shifting, versatile six-speed transmission. For the 2009 model year, the CRF230M was offered as a single, distinct model, with no different trims available. It represented a new offering from Honda, built upon the CRF230L platform but with key modifications for street use. These included lightweight 17-inch wheels with sporty low-profile Dunlop GT401 Arrowmax tires, a widened and stiffened swingarm, a lengthened rear shock for improved balance, and revised steering geometry (a 23.9-degree rake and 91mm of trail) for quicker handling. There were no specific mid-cycle generation or engine changes noted for the CRF230M within the 2009 model year or immediately following its introduction. FAQ:
