2019 HONDA CRF450RWE FULL TEST P66 ing it sturdier Renthal Fatbars and more bar-position/mounting adjustability. Before now, there were none, besides the usual rolling the bars fore or aft. Again, the Works Edition took on these same changes—and then some. Honda went a few steps further with the WE and gave it some performance enhancing upgrades, the same that you might do at home, like with the muffler. The WE comes with cool-looking slip-on titanium mufflers built by Yoshimura, far slicker than the standard's mufflers. You'd probably do some head work, too, but Honda did that for you, as well. The WE's cylinder head has been hand- ported and polished, and to go along with the ported head and the Yosh mufflers, Dang! Where's the hydraulic clutch?
