Honda CRF450R reviews

After being out of the game for years and just jumping back in as a novice, this bike is a dream. It is smooth, reliable, and ready to roll. I would highly recommend this bike to ALL. If I can do it, you can too. Show less

I just owned a 2006 RMZ 450 and I bought my 07 CRF 450 about 3 months ago and it is been nothing but great. My lap times have improved and I hit a lot more jumps on it. My first race on it, I won. Compared to the Honda 450, the Suzuki is a joke. The 07 Honda is by far the best bike I have ever ridden. I will never buy anything but a Honda now. Show less

I previously owned a DRZ-250 and I just bought the CRF450R 3 days ago (11-20-06) and let me start off by telling you this bike can stand up in all 5 gears with out a problem. I've ridden my buddies KX450F and it isn't half the bike the CRF is. Compared to the KX450F, this bike is more comfortable and to me, has more power. The acceleration and long distance speed is a lot quicker than the KX450F. My friend also rode my bike and my buddies KX450F and he says the CRF blows the KXF away. In my opinion, the CRF450R is the best 450 out there and Honda is the way to go. Show less

This is by far the best bike I have ever owned. I will never settle for anything less than a Honda 450. The quick snap and torque this bike has is incredible. It is by far the best bike on the market. Show less

THE BIKE HAS BIG POWER THAT IS VERY MANAGABLE. THIS IS THE BADDEST OUT OF THE BOX BIKE OUT THERE. JUST GET ON ONE AND YOU WILL BUY IT. THE NEW THINNER FRAM FEELS AWESOME. BIKE IS A LITTLE SHORTER THAN MY 2006 CRF250R WHICH IS ALSO NICE FOR US SHORT PEOPLE. Show less

This is my second CRF450R. A 2003 CRF450R was my first CRF450R. I installed a few mods on my 2006 CRF450R before riding it. Now, I am having a challenge adjusting to the speed of this bike: meaning that this bike is Scary fast!!! I love how much lighter & well balanced the 06 feels, as compared to the 03. I am excited for the many years ahead of Great riding with the 06 CRF450R, as I NEVER had any mechanical problems with the 03 CRF450R! Show less

I bought my '03 Honda CRF450R used last summer (05). What a great bike. Gobs of torque and power at any RPM. The bike is so light it dosn't seem like a 450 thumper. I have ridden it at all speeds over all types of terrain. Arizona has lots of great places to ride. I especially like hitting the soft stuff and just powering through it! My bro's that I ride with refuse to ride behind me because they whine that I am always roosting and hitting them with debri...yeeaaahhh! This bike has won me over and I would buy another one for sure if something happended to it. I recently put a Clarke 3.2 gallon tank on and it really helps. I bought one in the clear color to see the fuel level. Personally I don't think that there is a better dirt bike out there for the money. Show less

I've been riding and racing motocross for about 20 years and have always been a Honda guy as a racer. I've always loved the way a 2-stroke ripped, when the 4-stroke revolution started I thought it was just a fluke. Then, I rode an earlier model CRF450 and loved it. Now I have a 2005 CRF450R and there is no better bike on the track and in stock form it rocks. My bike has a few mods just for a little more performance and some looks things too. Show less

I have been riding bikes for at least 20 years and have always ridden a 2 stroke. A friend of mine purchased a 4 stroke 450 and it instantly made him look better, so I decided to go from the 2 stroke 250 up to the new CRF450R. I can tell you that I was a little bit worried about going to a 4 stroke, but man was I wrong. This bike is without a doubt the best machine I have ever ridden and I would reccomend to anyone looking to buy one. Show less

I have ridden dirt bikes since I was a teenager and this bike is by far the best bike I have been on. The power throughout the powerband is unbelievable. The handling is perfect. The suspension is not bad for stock. I would recomend this bike to anyone who is in the market. Show less
