Top 3 Most Affordable and Fuel-Efficient Motorcycles of 2025
2025 Honda CRF300L | $5749
Honda’s 300L returns with a face-lift and improved suspension for 2025.
Honda’s CRF300L returns for 2025 with all of its previous assets intact: It’s still stupid reliable, it’s still good fun on dirt and pavement, and it still rings up for well under $6000. We’ve put thousands of miles on these bikes over the years and they just do everything well from running errands around town to budget-friendly adventure-touring.
The CRF300L gets bonus points this year, however, as Honda has given it a few choice upgrades to address the most common complaints from enthusiasts. Improved suspension damping is the big headline here (the 300L has always been a bit soft), while an updated headlight and new graphics give the little dual sport the aggressive looks it deserves.

2025 Honda Grom | $3490 (with ABS $3,599)
Honda’s fuel-sipping Grom returns as one of the least fuel-consuming motorcycles we’ve ridden.
The Honda Grom stands out as one of the most fuel-efficient motorcycles on the market. We recorded an impressive 93 mpg during our tests, quite a way from American Honda’s official estimate of 166.5 mpg (2023 model). Even at highway speeds (over 50 mph), it still delivers nearly 100 mpg, making it an excellent choice for urban rides. The Grom’s 125cc single-cylinder engine may be small, but it’s designed to go the distance on minimal fuel. Now if only the 1.59-gallon fuel tank was bigger…
Looking for an even more practical fuel-sipping vehicle from Big Red, that’s also freeway-legal in many states? Check out Honda’s twist-and-go ADV160 scooter.

2025 Honda NC750X DCT | Sub $10K — Call for quote 281.447.3476
Riders seeking the ultimate in fuel efficiency, comfort, and function should check out Honda’s NC750X.
The Honda NC750X DCT is a favorite among riders for its blend of performance, utility, and efficiency. During our vehicle testing, it recorded an average of 59 mpg. Although those who travel at more moderate speeds (under 60 mph) could achieve closer to 70 mpg. It’s not unheard of US owners getting 80 mpg during steady highway rides. This level of fuel efficiency paired with its 3.7-gallon fuel tank make the NC750X a wise option for long-distance commuters. Another plus is its generous “trunklike” storage container located where the fuel tank traditionally is positioned.
