Our take on the Honda Nostalgia 3

The Honda Nostalgia 3 is a motocross bike built around a high-performance off-road engine and a chassis tuned for track riding. Honda positions it for riders who want a durable race platform they can customize rather than a stock trail bike. It sits in the same class as full-size 250cc-class motocross machines from the major brands, where the trade-off is usually between out-of-the-box race setup and adjustability. Little independent testing or owner feedback is available for this model, so compare it on spec and dealer support rather than reputation.
