Honda CRF description
Design
Honda's CRF 450R is one of the most successful motocross bikes ever to hit the circuit. It continues to be a main stay of their product line even today. To be honest, I bought the bike thinking I would transition from my ATVs but quickly learned its power exceeds by skill set. Consequently it hasn't been ridden much since I bought it in 2008.
Here is an independent review by Kevin Duke, Editor MotorcycleUSA.com:
First Ride: 2005 Honda CRF450R
"The CRF450R has been winning races since it was first unleashed in 2002 to challenge Yamaha's YZ450F, the progenitor of the class. The mighty CRF has gone on to win not only Supercross and Motocross national races in the hands of Kevin Windham and Ricky Carmichael, it has also won national-level dirt tracks, TTs, GNCC enduros and desert events. And the CRF already has a supermoto championship under its belt, with Honda claiming nearly 60% of the entrants in the field.
The CRF was significantly updated in 2004, with a healthier motor, a Renthal handlebar and a weight saving of 3.0 pounds, among several other worthwhile upgrades. But in this competitive class, if you're standing still you're gonna get passed.
With that in mind, Honda has once again revised the CRF, making it lighter, stronger and faster. Honda now claims a dry weight of 218.5 pounds, a drop of 3.5 from last year's model.
Each year, engineers spend countless hours in the pursuit of shaving grams from these race-ready machines, and each year the solutions get more creative and the materials used become more exotic. For instance, the rear hub of the 2005 CRF is made of a magnesium-silicon alloy that weighs 10% less (3.5 ounces) while being stronger than last year's model. A new aluminum swingarm retains the previous dual-axis, double-taper design, but is now almost 9 ounces lighter while preserving the rigidity of the previous component."
