A design conceived for victory: discover the Honda CRF 450 RX Rally 2025 in detail
The Honda CRF 450 RX Rally 2025 is the ultimate machine to face the most extreme terrains. If you dream of participating in a rally raid like the Dakar, this bike is made for you. Although KTM seems to dominate the market with its ultra-performance machines, Honda does not intend to fall behind. Its CRF 450 RX Rally, prepared by RedMoto and distributed by Euroboost, promises to shake up the rally scene in 2025.
A winning collaboration: HRC and RedMoto
Honda has decided to partner with RedMoto to offer a customer version of the CRF 450 RX Rally. This collaboration will allow any ambitious motorcyclist to experience the world of rally racing with homologated models. Production is limited to 50 units, available only for pre-order, to make each machine even more exclusive. If you want the chance to be in charge of one of these extraordinary bikes, you shouldn’t wait!
The importance of weight and agility
The strong point of this bike is its navigation tower made of carbon fiber. This detail, which may seem trivial, is actually crucial: by lightening this part, Honda has managed to keep the bike extremely maneuverable. The fact that this navigation tower is independent of the main chassis is also an advantage for repairs in the middle of a race. In case of unforeseen events, you don’t have to disassemble the entire bike to intervene.
The riding position is designed for long stages. The rear tank, made of high-strength nylon and polyethylene, optimizes space while ensuring ideal rigidity. The front and rear tanks are also designed to offer a natural posture and total control. There’s nothing worse than an uncomfortable position after several hours of racing. Honda has focused on ergonomics, so you can overcome the stages without issues.
Protection and suspensions: it’s all in the details
When participating in a rally, every impact can have consequences on your bike. Honda knows this and has equipped the CRF 450 RX Rally with a carbon fiber engine guard. This protects the fuel tank from hits and allows the bike to glide easily over obstacles. Regarding the suspensions, you will find a fork with ultra high performance with titanium tubes and a state-of-the-art shock absorber, specifically developed for the extreme conditions of rallies.
An engine designed for performance
Honda has developed a 58 horsepower engine, with a six-speed gearbox that offers total control at every regime. This engine is designed to withstand heat and extreme conditions thanks to an additional radiator. The titanium silencer signed by Akrapovic, developed for the official bikes, ensures optimal power. Everything has been designed for the motorcycle to deliver high-level performance without declining, even after several hundred kilometers of racing.
