Honda Officially Announces CRF450R/CRF450RX in Japan After First Full Redesign in Over a Decade, On Sale September 4

A refresh a decade in the making — already can't wait to go see it in person.

Is it right to understand the CRF450RX as the R but with a more enduro-oriented setup?

From the North American early announcement to the official domestic reveal — curious if there'll be info updates before the September 4 launch.

This is probably a genuinely serious full overhaul aimed at countering KTM's and Yamaha's latest 450MX machines.

Both the engine and frame being new designs basically means almost no carryover parts.

The first full redesign in 10 years — a bold call to swing straight from a well-refined CRF450R into an all-new design.
