Honda CRF 450 RX 2017

In the cross-country sector, the Honda CRF 450 RX is probably the number 1. Its single-cylinder convinces with sufficient power, but keeps popping out in our testers. As is typical for Honda, the CRF 450 RX gives a lot of confidence right from the start and has the best handling in the 450 class. However, the chassis is designed for fast stages and is not very convincing in the hard enduro sector. A lively and agile enduro for the cross-country segment!
