New 2026 Honda Powersports CRF 450RL

2026 Honda® CRF450RL

The CRF450RL blends off-road grit with road-ready refinement, giving you the freedom to ride anywhere, anytime. Built on a platform similar to the CRF450R and fully street legal, it’s tough, agile, and engineered for real adventure—no matter where the map takes you.

Features may include:

• 450cc Unicam® engine

The Unicam® cylinder-head engine is a hybrid design based on our championship-winning CRF450R. It is lighter, has a lower center of gravity, and a higher compression ratio, all designed to improve the outright power and performance.

• Street-legal and off-road capable

Street-legal in all 50 states, this motorcycle has a catalytic converter and can be ridden off-road almost anywhere. You can ride it on public lands, roads, and state and national parks. Plus, you won't need to haul your bike to the trailhead.

• Electric start

An electric start system ensures easy starting in all conditions. The electric starter also drives the clutch side of the crankshaft to provide superior lubrication to the starter gears while producing a narrow engine with a short, strong crank.

• Wide-ratio six-speed transmission

Similar to the 450X, the 450RL features a six-speed wide-ratio gearbox. This allows the low gear to be excellent in slow, tight situations and the high gear to be tall enough for highway riding to the next trailhead or gas stop.
