CRF450RX,
H
onda's cross-country racer,
the CRF450RX, also gets a
major overhaul for 2021.
The new CRF450RX received the
same amount of attention as the new
CRF450R, which includes getting a
front exhaust port and a single muffler.
The RX still offers off-road-specif-
ic features like dedicated ECU and
suspension settings, an 18-inch rear
wheel and an aluminum side stand.
New for 2021, the CRF450RX
comes standard with handguards
and a revised and narrower 2.1-gal-
lon fuel tank.
MSRP: $9899.
Honda's 450 dual sport gets a
name change for 2021. It's now
referred to as "RL" instead of just "L."
This marketing move positions the
RL closer to its competition cousins
and farther away from its mellower
CRF250L dual sport brother. The
CRF450RL is essentially the same as
previous model but with new graph-
ics and hand guards that now come
standard.
The CRF450RL returns with a
$10,399 price tag.
The off-road CRF450X is back with
new graphics and hand guards. It
sells for $9799. CN
