Honda recently announced the new CRF450RX Rally, officially unveiled to the public in early March at Motodays in Rome. But despite being available for purchase, not everyone will be able to buy one.
The price is already a selective factor: €31,140. However, unlike its mass-produced models, only 50 units will be manufactured this year… and they will only be available under certain conditions.
According to TodoCircuito.com, interested buyers must prove that they will actually compete with the CRF450RX Rally. This makes the bike even more exclusive – somewhat similar to how KTM handles its Rally Replica models.
This bike has features similar to the CRF 450 Rally, which Honda’s factory team enters in the Dakar and other major rally-raid events. It was built in partnership with RedMoto.
It has a 449.7cc single-cylinder engine with 58 hp, a six-speed gearbox, a twin-spar aluminum frame, an inverted Showa front fork, and a Showa rear shock with Honda Pro-Link. Each wheel has a brake disc.
The CRF450RX Rally has two fuel tanks with a total capacity of 22 liters, plus a rear tank with 14 liters. The navigation tower is made of carbon fiber, as is the skid plate.
