Cycle News Staff | May 29, 2024
Honda’s premium off-road race bikes, the CRF450RX (pictured below) and CRF250RX, are heavily updated for the 2025 model year.
The CRF450RX received the same changes as its close relative, the CRF450R, which means it has a new frame, updated suspension and bodywork. Honda says, “These advancements enhance handling characteristics, with greater stability and comfort—especially in rough terrain.”
