Segment: Enduro/Offroad
Production years: 2008, 2009
The 2008 Honda CRF450R receives an all-new, lighter engine with improved power response thanks to the PGM fuel injection, a nifty match for the new aluminium frame with Kayaba suspensions, a longer swingarm and a bigger airbox, with a redesigned exhaust and a new bodywork styling.
Still one of the leading off-road bikes in the top range, the 2008 CRF450R is now even more aggressive and will help daring riders achieve more wins.
