Honda's profilation of this bike
The CRF450R. What more can be said about this best-selling MX-er that won every moto—a perfect 24 for 24—in the 2004 AMA 250 Nationals? Start with the fact that for 2006 it returns even more agile and versatile, with revised engine location in the frame and a lower center of gravity for quicker, sharper handling, plus new ignition and carburetor settings. And then get set to dominate—all over again.
