2026 Honda CRF300L Rally First Look

What’s new on the most expensive trim of Honda’s CRF300L platform for 2026?

Honda has offered its CRF300L and CRF300L Rally since 2021, and the CRF300LS was unveiled in 2023. At time of this writing, the Japanese manufacturer has only unveiled one of these three models for 2026—the CRF300L Rally, which is unchanged from last year.

The 2026 Honda CRF300L Rally is identical to the 2025 model.Honda

The CRF300L Rally is built around a steel frame and sends power to its rear wheel via a fuel-injected liquid-cooled DOHC four-stroke 286cc single-cylinder engine. Transmission is a six-speed and clutch is cable-actuated. Honda relies on a nonadjustable Showa 43mm inverted fork and Showa shock adjustable for spring preload to handle suspension duties.

A larger fuel tank, windscreen, and extra-coverage fairing are a few ways in which the CRF300L Rally differs from the CRF300L.Honda

IRC Foot Loose Trails GP-21 front and GP-22 rear tires are mounted on full-size (21-inch front and 18-inch rear) wheels. For brakes, there’s Nissin dual-piston front and single-piston rear calipers that bite onto 296mm front and 220mm rear discs—both with ABS. Claimed seat height is 35.2 inches and with its 3.4-gallon fuel tank filled, Honda says the CRF300L Rally weighs 333 pounds.

The 2026 CRF300L Rally retains its same suggested retail price from the past two years of $6499.Honda

Like the rest of the bike, the CRF300L Rally’s price doesn’t change for 2026 either. It stickers for $6499.
