449cc Unicam Engine
The Unicam® cylinder head design remains one of the most efficient in the off-road world, giving you the design and performance of a double-overhead-cam layout but the compactness of a single-overhead-cam one. The result is a compact engine that saves weight, while the narrow valve angle allows a high compression ratio. Another great benefit of the reduced size is that is sits lower, improving the centre of gravity.
CROSS COUNTRY TYRES
The CRF450RX tyres, 90/90-21 at the front and 120/90-18 at the rear, are specifically designed for enduro use, so you can ride the way you want, where you want.
SLIM BODYWORK
Narrow bodywork makes it a lot easier to move around on your bike, maximising your riding freedom and reducing fatigue.
LARGE FUEL TANK
Large plastic 8L fuel tank, ideal for cross country rides, lets you keep riding for longer.
SELECTABLE ENGINE MODES
The Engine Mode Select Button (EMSB) alters the engine’s characteristics. Three maps are available to suit riding conditions or rider preference: Mode 1 (Standard), Mode 2 (Smooth) and Mode 3 (Aggressive). The LED also displays the selected mode.
FULLY ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION
The 49mm Showa® fork features a conventional spring design that increases precision, handling and feel, while the rear has a Pro-link set up. Both fully adjustable and specifically tuned for cross country riding.
LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINIUM FRAME
The CRF450RX’s chassis was designed to be narrow, lightweight, and more responsive thanks to reduced lateral rigidity. The swingarm’s lateral rigidity is matched to the rest of the chassis, for a balanced, fully integrated approach to frame stiffness, letting you get around corners faster and with better feel.
