Engineered by Honda for the atv motorcycle segment, the 2013 Honda TRX450R relies on a 450 cc (27.5 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 96.0 x 62.0 mm (3.8 x 2.4 inches) with a 12.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TRX450R measures 176 kg (388 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 833 mm (32.8 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,275 mm (50.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10.22-liter (2.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
