How many corners are there on your favourite motocross or Supercross track? Each one of those leads directly from the starting gate to the winner's circle-at least when you're riding a Honda CRF450R. New chassis. Major engine overhaul. New suspension. New bodywork. All with the goal of letting you rail through the corners with the most precision and power you've ever experienced. The engine's power delivery starts off deep down for corner drive, and just keeps building until it's at maximum roost. Forget about clutch fade, adjustment, or hand fatigue with the new hydraulic system. Lighter than ever, the CRF450R explodes out of corners when it's time to increase your lead.
This bike comes with features such as:
Honda's Unicam cylinder heads combine the best of single - and double-overhead-cam designs. Our engineers redesigned the auto decompression hardware, and also moved it from the right side of the cam to the left. The result is less stalling at extreme low RPM (think deep into a turn without downshifting) as well as better rideability. The CRF450R also gets a whole new cylinder head. Its biggest feature: an oval-shaped centralized exhaust port. Together with the new single-muffler exhaust, it boosts power from 5000 rpm up and increases exhaust efficiency. Lightweight titanium intake valves cut down on reciprocating mass and permit the use of smaller valve springs, reducing overall engine height.
Notice that button on the handlebar by the clutch perch? The CRF450R gets our Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC). You can choose from one of three settings to perfectly dial your bike in depending on how much traction is available.
