2023 Honda CRF450RX Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Honda's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2023 Honda CRF450RX utilizes a 449 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 96.0 x 62.1 mm (3.8 x 2.4 inches) with a 13.5:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the CRF450RX measures 113.9 kg (251 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 965 mm (38 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,477 mm (58.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
