The last XLR250Rs before the line was replaced by the XR250R and XR BAJA in 1995 were mechanically unchanged from the 1991 update, with only new colours. In January 1994 Honda also sold a limited XLR250R SPECIAL run of 2,000 bikes. It remained a light, air-cooled Japanese-market trail bike with disc brakes at both ends.
