HONDA CRF450X (2007-2008) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Honda CRF was a series of off-road, trail, and dual-sport motorcycles manufactured and marketed by Honda since 2000. It succeeded the Honda CR series and comprised models with different engine displacements.

One of which was the 2007 Honda CRF450X, an off-road motorcycle in the last production year as part of the first generation, followed by the 2008 model, which was the first model of the second generation.

The 2007 model year was the third consecutive production year. It was in the same shape and form as previous ones, featuring the same characteristics without any modifications whatsoever. The 2007 Honda CRF450X was sold at an MSRP of $7,400.

It also packed the same standard features as previous ones, such as a high-mounted front fender, an inverted fork with slider covers, a single seat, a single exhaust system with a high-mounted silencer, a silencer cover, a dual-sided swingarm, and wire-spoke wheels with off-road rubbers.

As for power, the 2007 Honda CRF450X got its muscles from a 449cc four-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine mounted at its core. It boasted 45 hp at 7,500 rpm and 43 Nm (32 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.

The riding characteristics were set by a 47 mm fully adjustable cartridge-type Showa fork on the front with 315 mm of travel and a Pro-Link swingarm tied to an adjustable Showa shock absorber on the rear with 315 mm of travel.
