Description

Honda CRF450R Competition Dirt Bike

For over 50 years, the Honda CRF450R has been the benchmark of performance on the track—and it’s only getting better. This championship-proven 450cc beast delivers explosive low-end and midrange torque, giving riders the power to dominate corners and hold taller gears with total control.

Trusted by champions, the CRF450R is the weapon of choice for Honda GDR’s Dylan Wright, who rode it to his fourth Triple Crown Series title in 2023.

Engineered for victory, its razor-sharp chassis delivers unbeatable stability, while precision-tuned suspension carves through tight lines with confidence. Add in a high-durability muffler that keeps things quieter and more efficient, and you’ve got a machine that’s built to perform—and built to win.

ENGINE & DRIVETRAIN

Unicam Engine

The Unicam® cylinder head offers a compact, lightweight design with a narrow valve angle, which improves combustion chamber efficiency, increases compression ratio, and lowers the centre of gravity.

Smoother Airflow

Torque output has been maximized with a unique airbox shape and filter design. The filter is easily accessible and features a gasket-less design for quicker and easier cleaning and servicing.

Revised Exhaust

In combination with its less-restrictive air-intake system, the CRF450R’s revised exhaust with straighter airflow means smoother engine operation in the mid- to high-rpm range and more-controllable acceleration.

Hydraulic Clutch

Big power requires a strong clutch, and this bike delivers with a smooth-operating hydraulic clutch. Ditching the cable improves consistency, control, and feel at the lever. The clutch capacity is generous, along with an extra plate and spring to maximize power transfer and durability.

Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)

Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) works to minimize rear wheel spin (thus wasted forward drive) and maximize traction. It doesn’t use a wheel-speed sensor, and, importantly, maintains feel at the throttle while managing power — ignition timing and the PGM-FI system are adjusted when the rate of change of rpm goes over a set amount. With three settings plus off to choose from, you can have your bike dialed no matter how much traction there is.

HRC Launch Control

We’re talking about a special ECU program here: push the button to select the mode, hold the throttle open, release the clutch, and the bike will do the rest, launching you into the first turn with a big advantage.

Engine Mode Select Button

This simple handlebar-mounted button lets you dial in engine power delivery character with a push of your thumb. Choose between Standard, Smooth and Aggressive, depending on track conditions.

ECU Settings

Our engineers never stop searching for ways to make it easier to go faster. The ECU settings combine with the other chassis and powertrain improvements to make the CRF450R an all-around better performer.

CHASSIS & SUSPENSION

Aluminum Fram

The CRF450R’s aluminum frame is engineered for increased rigidity and stability. Its structure enhances torsional and lateral stiffness in every direction, delivering more controlled and predictable handling — especially in rough conditions.

Showa Fork

The CRF450R features a Showa spring fork designed for optimal low-speed damping, reduced friction, and increased rigidity. From the outer tube to the axle, every component works together to deliver precise control and consistent performance — lap after lap.

Shock Access

The CRF450R’s Pro-Link rear suspension is built around a link system that resists flex and a shock with smooth, consistent action. Maintenance is straightforward, with easy access to the rear suspension assembly. The shock can be removed in minutes — no need to take off the seat, muffler, or rear frame.

Single-pipe Exhaust

The CRF450R uses a single-pipe header. It routes close to the center of the bike, and its light overall construction helps improve weight distribution. The single muffler uses a pressed-alloy design that lets us shape the muffler body for better rider ergonomics and lighter weight.

Large Front Brake

The large front-brake disc measures a whopping 260 mm, giving you superior stopping power while also being easy to modulate.

Black Rims

They may not help you go faster, but the black D.I.D® rims sure look good.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Electric Start

Kickstarting? Maybe if you’re riding in the vintage class, but not here. By ditching the kickstarter entirely, our engineers were able to make a light bike even lighter. Electric starters and lithium-ion batteries are now so light and so good that putting them on a bike like this is a win/win combination. And winning is what the CRF450R is all about.

Easy Filter Cleaning

Because the CRF450R’s air filter has no rubber gasket where it interfaces with the intake boot, cleaning and servicing the filter is faster and less messy.

Cool Running

Another way the CRF450R keeps its cool: a large radiator, with fins that are angled for efficient airflow.
