450 REASONS TO
RIDE RED
Carrying half a century of race-winning DNA, with
Unicam engine power, precision Showa suspension,
and podium-proven durability, the CRF450R
is everything you’d expect from Honda’s top-tier
motocross weapon. No gimmicks. No fluff. Just a bike
built to leave the competition in its roost.
Our exclusive CRF450 RWE Works Edition gets a hand-
ported red cylinder head, Hinson clutch basket and cover,
Twin Air filter, gripper seat cover, DID DirtStar LT-X rims,
Yoshimura exhaust system, Kashima-coated fork legs,
revalved suspension, an RK gold chain, special ECU settings,
and black triple clamps.

FEATURES & BENEFITS
TWIN-SPAR ALUMINUM FRAME
Experience faster cornering with the lightweight,
superior chassis design, which maintains finely tuned
lateral rigidity.
HYDRAULIC CLUTCH
CRF450R
With the CRF450R’s hydraulically actuated clutch,
you get a clutch-lever pull that’s ten percent lighter at its
peak, and more consistent throughout an entire moto.
Plus, you’ll never have to worry about making a cable
adjustment, even during the longest events.
SELECTABLE ENGINE MODES
Easily control your bike’s traction with the left-side
handlebar-mounted green button, activating our Honda
Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) system. It offers three
RED customizable settings to optimize your ride based on
conditions or preference.
CRF450RWE Works Edition
LAUNCH CONTROL
This special ECU program allows you to select a start
mode, then simply hold the throttle open and release
the clutch, letting the bike do the rest. Trust us when we
say it turns it into a holeshot-seeking machine!
