2016 HONDA CRF450X PROJECT BIKE
P92
Overall the Honda 450X
worked well for our team of dif-
ferent sized riders. The stock
suspension was the biggest lim-
iting factor in overall speed, but
with comfort items like the Flexx
bars and the Rekluse clutch in-
stalled, the 450X was very easy
and fun to ride. By keeping the
experience fun and keeping the
bike out on the course moving
the entire day we wrapped up
the race ninth out of 45 teams.
Our only changes for the up-
coming 24 Hour will be suspen-
sion work and the addition of a
quality light. Because off-road
lighting has advanced a lot in the
past five years, we will be able
to power lights without any major
modifications to the stator or
wiring. We are also swapping out
the battery for a light lithium ion
battery and refreshing the chain
and sprockets.
If racing for 24 hours interests
you, check out www.glenhelen.

in October. CN
