2024 Honda CRF450RWE

2024 Honda® CRF450RWECHOICE OF CHAMPIONSMotorcycle racing is one of the most demanding sports in the world, and when the gate drops you better be totally dialed in—your fitness, your skills, and your equipment. And that’s why the best riders in the world roll up to the start line on a Honda CFR450R. Look at Team Honda HRC’s Chase Sexton, who clinched the 2023 AMA Supercross championship. Or Jett Lawrence on his CRF450R in the motocross nationals. When Honda introduced the first CR250M Elsinore fifty years ago, we changed motocross forever. For 2024, our CRF450R continues the legacy of winning, combining handling, power, suspension and refinement like nothing else on the track. And if you’re looking for the absolute best of the best, check out our CRF450RWE Works Edition. It adds special touches like an exclusive Yoshimura exhaust, Twin Air filter, Throttle Jockey seat cover, Hinson clutch basket and cover, premium DID DirtStar LT-X rims, Kashima and titanium oxide-coated fork, a red cylinder head cover, and hands-on touches like special cylinder-head porting.Features may include:HANDLINGLIGHT NARROW FRAMEGreat handling starts with a superior frame, and that’s one place where the CRF450RWE chassis puts you out front. First, it’s light—over a pound and a half lighter than the previous generation’s. By making the frame’s main spars narrow, we save weight, but more importantly we make the chassis more responsive by fine-tuning the lateral rigidity. The result is a bike that gets into, around, and out of corners faster.ENGINEERINGHYDRAULIC CLUTCHThe CRF450RWE features the first hydraulically actuated dirtbike clutch we’ve offered outside of our works bikes. Made by Nissin, it’s the same design as in our Grand Prix MX machines, and performs better than third-party conversions. You get a clutch-lever pull that’s ten percent lighter at its peak, even though it’s paired with an eight-plate clutch. Plus, you’ll never have to worry about making a clutch-cable adjustment, even during the longest events.CONVENIENCESEALED AIRBOX AND FILTERAlong with the special air filter, the airbox shape helps deliver more torque. You can access the airbox through the left number plate. And because the CRF450RWE’s filter has no rubber gasket where it interfaces with the intake boot, cleaning and servicing the filter is faster and less messy.PERFORMANCEEXCLUSIVE WORKS EDITIONSimply stated, the best of the best. The CRF450RWE Works Edition includes all the standard CRF450RWE features, but also gets a special hand-ported cylinder head; Hinson clutch basket and cover; Twin Air filter, Throttle Jockey graphics and seat cover; upgraded DID DirtStar LT-X rims; an exclusive Yoshimura exhaust system including a titanium midpipe and muffler; Kashima and titanium oxide-coated lower fork legs; revalved suspension; an RK gold chain; special ECU settings; and black triple clamps. Available in extremely limited numbers.COMFORTSLIM BODYWORKThe CRF450RWE’s extra-slim bodywork makes it a lot easier to move around on the bike, and that maximizes your riding freedom. When we reduced the total number of fasteners needed to remove the body panels, maintenance off the bike got easier too.
