HONDA CRF450R (2013-2016) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Honda CRF450R was a racing motocross motorcycle driven by a 450cc four-stroke engine. It debuted in 2002 to replace the Honda CR250R and has been manufactured for over six generations.

In 2013, the Japanese motorcycle maker released the Honda CRF450R, an off-road motorcycle part of the fourth generation. The fourth generation included motorcycles manufactured between 2013 and 2016.

The 2013 model year came with some modifications, which included the addition of a twin exhaust system to centralize mass and changes to the suspension system, which included an air-assisted fork.

For suspension, the motorcycle packed a 48 mm inverted KYB adjustable telescopic fork on the front with 310 mm wheel travel and a Pro-Link swingarm with an adjustable shock on the rear with 315 mm wheel travel.

The braking department remained unchanged from the previous model. It packed a 240 mm brake disc clamped by a dual-piston caliper on the front and a single 240 mm brake disc on the rear, which provided optimum braking power.

As for power, the 2013 Honda CRF450R was set in motion by a 449cc four-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine mounted under the fuel tank. It was fed by a Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system and delivered 55 hp at 9,000 rpm and 50 Nm (37 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.
