2020 Honda® CRF450L TRAIL-TO-TRAIL DREAM MACHINE. Ride anywhere. Ride everywhere. That’s what Honda’s extraordinary CRF450L is all about. A street-legal dirtbike that offers the refinement of a Honda, along with light weight, superior handling, and plenty of power. It’s a motorcycle that’s taking the dual-sport scene by storm, a huge critical success by seemingly everyone who’s scored a ride on one. Powerful 449cc Unicam engine. Twin-spar aluminum CRF chassis. Wide-ratio six-speed transmission. Premium long-travel suspension. Electric start. New graphics this year. And most special of all in this class, the reliability Honda is famous for. Get ready to roost. Features may include: VERSATILITY Fully Street Legal The CRF450L is equipped with a catalytic converter and is fully street legal in all 50 states. That means you can ride it wherever it’s legal to operate a motor vehicle—in state and national parks, on the road, on public lands. Plus, you don’t need to haul your bike to the trailhead in a truck or on a trailer. Best of all, it makes finding gas a breeze. CONVENIENCE Electric Start An electric start system ensures trouble-free starting in all conditions. The electric starter also drives the clutch side of the crankshaft to provide superior lubrication to starter gears while producing a narrow engine with a short, strong crank. PERFORMANCE 449Cc Unicam® Engine Honda’s Unicam® cylinder heads combine the best of single- and double-overhead-cam designs. The configuration contributes to a compact engine that saves weight over a comparable dual-overhead-camshaft motor and also permits a narrow included valve angle. This flattens the combustion chamber to facilitate ignition flame propagation, allowing a high compression ratio. Since less space is taken up in the cylinder head, the camshaft sits lower in the head for a more compact engine and a lower center of gravity. ENGINEERING Wide-Ratio Six-Speed Transmission Like our CRF450X, the CRF450L rocks a wide-ratio six-speed gearbox. That gives you a low gear perfect for tight, slow situations, and a top gear that’s tall enough for highway riding to the next gas stop or trailhead. HANDLING 18-Inch Rear Wheel The CRF450L’s 18-inch rear wheel gives you an excellent choice of on/off-road tires. COMFORT Black Rims They may not help you go faster, but the sweet black DID DirtStar rims sure look good.
