2024 Honda® CRF450RX

Imagine the ultimate dream bike for dirt riders—a machine that combines the power, agility, and precise handling of a factory motocrosser with the finesse needed to conquer off-road adventures. That’s the 2024 Honda CRF450RX. We've taken all the remarkable enhancements from our 2024 CRF450R motocrosser and infused it with some engineering magic, resulting in the perfect off-road companion. You’ll experience increased low- and midrange torque through revised ECU and fuel injection settings, along with the enhanced usability provided by a wide-ratio five-speed transmission. But that's not all: The RX showcases our extraordinary Honda Selectable Torque Control, empowering you to optimize traction in any scenario. Additionally, a lightweight chassis, 18-inch rear wheel, and specialized suspension settings are meticulously designed to conquer every terrain you encounter. And here's the icing on the cake: our unrivaled reputation for quality and reliability. The CRF450RX is the genuine article, as any off-road rider will attest!

Features may include:

• LIGHT, NARROWER FRAME

Great handling starts with a superior frame. The CRF450RX’s chassis was designed to be narrow, lightweight, and more responsive thanks to reduced lateral rigidity. The result is a bike that gets into, around, and out of corners faster.

• HYDRAULIC CLUTCH

The CRF450RX includes a hydraulically actuated clutch. Made by Nissin, it’s the same design as in our Grand Prix MX machines, and performs better than third-party conversions. You get a clutch-lever pull that’s ten percent lighter at its peak, even though it’s paired with a stronger clutch. Plus, you’ll never have to worry about making a clutch-cable adjustment, even during the longest events.

• AIRBOX AND FILTER

The air filter and airbox shape are designed to help deliver more torque. You can access the airbox through the left number plate. And because the filter has no rubber gasket where it interfaces with the intake boot, cleaning and servicing the filter is faster and less messy.

• DUNLOP GEOMAX AT81 TIRES

The CRF450RX’s Dunlop Geomax tires are specially designed for Enduro use. The AT81 tires are spec’d at 21 inches for the front and 18 inches for the rear. You read that right: the CRF450RX rolls on an 18-inch rear wheel.
