450cc Unicam® engine

In the off-road world, weight management is king. That is why we fitted the CRF450X with our Unicam® engine. The included valve angle flattens the combustion chamber, making it more compact and lowering the center of gravity.

Full lighting package

Whether you’re winning WORCS races or dominating the Baja 1000, you’ll need good lighting. We fitted the CRF450X with a full lighting package (headlight and taillight) for improved visibility in low-light conditions.

Factory handguards

Protection is paramount when taming tough trails. For this reason, we fitted the CRF45OX with factory handguards. These guards protect against rocks, branches, thorns, and brushes while giving the bike a polished look.

Race-proven toughness

450cc Unicam® engine

Honda's Unicam^® design creates a compact engine that saves weight. The included valve angle flattens the combustion chamber for easier ignition while the camshaft sits lower, making it more compact and lowering the center of gravity.

Race-proven toughness

Wide-ratio six-speed transmission

Having six speeds in the transmission, as opposed to a typical five on an MX bike, provides more versatility. This bike can handle everything from east-coast rock crawling to wide-open Baja blasts.

Race-proven toughness

Electric start

The electric start system ensures trouble-free starting. It drives the clutch side of the crankshaft, providing superior lubrication to starter gears while allowing a narrow engine with a short, strong crank.

Race-proven toughness

Twin-spar chassis

The motorcycle has a lightweight, stiff, twin-spar aluminum chassis with excellent handling. It is wider than the standard MX frame to fit the six-speed transmission.
