MAKE VICTORY TASTE EVEN SWEETER.
Nobody needs to tell you that every dollar counts these days. Which is why our Honda CRF450R-S is such a perfect bike for its time. You get an incredibly refined open-class motocrosser at an incredible price. Unicam® engine, selectable engine modes, Honda Selectable Torque Control, titanium fuel tank, premium suspension, and something nobody else can match: Honda refinement and build quality. Spend the money you'll save on a new pair of boots, some extra tires, your entry fees . . . and a bigger trophy case. The 2024 CRF450R-S is the open classer we all need right now.
ALUMINUM FRAME
The CRF450R-S's twin-spar aluminum frame positions the rear shock's mounting point lower, opening up the airbox area and contributing to a lower center of gravity for more holeshots. The frame geometry also helps improve traction, feeling and steering precision.
LOW-MOUNT BATTERY BOX
Check out the battery-box location on the 2024 CRF450R-S. Putting it low in the chassis helps lower the overall center of gravity, which is always a benefit for responsive handling.
HRC LAUNCH CONTROL
We're talking about a special ECU program here: push the button to select the mode, hold the throttle open, release the clutch, and the CRF450R-S will do the rest, launching you into the first turn with a big advantage. It turns your bike into a holeshot-seeking machine!
HONDA SELECTABLE TORQUE CONTROL (HSTC)
The button on the handlebar by the clutch perch activates our Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC). You can choose from one of three settings to perfectly dial your bike in depending on how much traction is available.
ELECTRIC STARTER
By ditching the kickstarter entirely, our engineers have made the CRF450R-S lighter. Electric starters and lithium-ion batteries are so light now and so good that putting them on a bike like this is a win/win combination. And winning is what a CRF450R-S is all about.
450cc UNICAM ENGINE
Honda Unicam cylinder head combines the best of single- and double-overhead-cam designs. The configuration contributes to a compact engine that saves weight over a comparable dual-overhead-camshaft motor and also permits a narrow included valve angle. This flattens the combustion chamber to facilitate ignition flame propagation, allowing a high compression ratio. Since less space is taken up in the cylinder head, the camshaft sits lower in the head for a more compact engine and a lower center of gravity.
TITANIUM INTAKE VALVES
Lightweight titanium intake valves cut down on reciprocating mass and permit the use of smaller valve springs, reducing overall engine height.
