HONDA CRF450R (2012-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

For years, the Honda CRF450R has represented the MX elite, and the 2012 iteration does not stray from the tradition. 2012 brings a new aluminium frame with a new suspension package and a shorter dual muffler positioned closer to the center of the bike, for a better-centralized mas and a more nimble feel.

The 2012 CRF450R also comes with the new KYB Pneumatic Spring Fork which brings better performance and a lighter build. A new, stronger clutch is also on the menu, together with revised airbox, bodywork livery and styling, new rotors and upgraded engine parts, such as piston, radiators, mapping and many more.
