450cc Unicam® engine

In the world of Dual Sports, usable power is king. That is why we fitted the CRF450RL with our Unicam® engine. It is lighter, has a lower center of gravity, and a higher compression ratio, all designed to improve the outright power and performance.

IRC GP tires

Finding a tire that is as good on-road as off-road is not easy. We searched long and hard before fitting the CRF450RL with IRC GP rubber. The tires are designed to provide excellent traction while featuring a long life span.

Street-legal and off-road capable

Street-legal in all 50 states, this motorcycle has a catalytic converter and can be ridden off-road almost anywhere. You can ride it on public lands, roads, and state and national parks. Plus, you won't need to haul your bike to the trailhead.

Electric start

An electric start system ensures easy starting in all conditions. The electric starter also drives the clutch side of the crankshaft to provide superior lubrication to the starter gears while producing a narrow engine with a short, strong crank

Wide-ratio six-speed transmission

Similar to the 450X, the 450RL features a six-speed wide-ratio gearbox. This allows the low gear to be excellent in slow, tight situations and the high gear to be tall enough for highway riding to the next trailhead or gas stop.

Fuel injection

This bike's proven fuel injection system offers excellent torque and spot-on metering and response, especially in the critical low-rpm range. It also automatically compensates for elevation and weather changes.

Twin-spar chassis

Excellent handling results from the twin-spar aluminum frame, which is lightweight and rigid. The chassis geometry has been specifically chosen for its responsiveness and is wider than the standard MX frame to accommodate the six-speed transmission.

Works "MX" styling

The "RL" resembles our MX bikes, thanks to their similar smooth bodywork design, making it easy to move around. Additionally, the in-mold graphics not only look cool but are also durable.
