2016 Honda CRF450R revealed
An enhanced suspension set-up spearheads the amendments that Honda is making to its CRF450R motocross bike for 2016.
Better handling and improved stability are promised thanks to a revised KYB Pneumatic Spring Fork. The unit is longer and more rigid than before, plus it gains firmer damping on both compression and rebound.
To complement the front-end updates, the rear KYB shock now has more rebound damping but marginally less compression.
As a result of those modifications the CRF450R’s steering geometry, wheelbase and ground clearance have all been altered very slightly.
Just about everything else is carried over unchanged from the 2015 model, though. That means power still comes from a liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, four-stroke, 449 cc single-cylinder engine that develops 53.0 bhp (39.5 kW / 53.7 PS).
