Ceasing production?

Sorry for being slightly off topic. How come Honda stopped making the XR 250 and Xr 400 range? I would have thought honda would like to appeal to a larer variety of riders? thank for any comments

Maybe they're planning to replace the old aircooled motor with a variant of the newer liquid cooled CR-F type motors?

If so, it's probably down to meeting emissions requirements. This has been the reason for a few bikes ceasing production in the last couple of years.
