HYDRAULIC CLUTCH: The CRF450R features the first hydraulically actuated clutch weвЂ™ve offered outside of our works bikes.We believe they should be easy to use, especially when youвЂ™re concentrating on winning. Now you have things like launch assist, selectable power modes, and more. Controls used to be your bikeвЂ™s shifter, clutch, and brakes. SWITCH ASSEMBLY: Check out the controls on the 2022 CRF450R.And winning is what a CRF450R is all about. Electric starters and lithium-ion batteries are so light now and so good that putting them on a bike like this is a win/win combination. By ditching the kickstarter entirely, our engineers can make the CRF450R lighter. ELECTRIC STARTER: Kickstarting? Maybe if youвЂ™re riding in the vintage class, but not here.And because the CRF450RвЂ™s filter has no rubber gasket where it interfaces with the intake boot, cleaning and servicing the filter is faster and less messy than ever. You can access the airbox through the left number plate. SEALED AIRBOX AND FILTER: Along with the special air filter, the airbox shape helps deliver more torque.

DETAILED CABLE ROUTING: You may not notice it at first, but routing the CRF450RвЂ™s throttle cables and hydraulic clutch line let our engineers shave almost half a pound off the bike.The superior ergonomics make it easier to move forward and back on the bike, increasing your control. FLAT SEAT/TANK JUNCTION: The CRF450R features a flat seat/tank junction, including a titanium fuel tank.The result? When itвЂ™s time for service, removing and installing your CRF450RвЂ™s seat is easier than ever. Last year, we moved the attaching bolts from the rear to the front, and the tongue from the front to the rear. EASY-ACCESS SEAT: Sometimes you need to think out of the box-thatвЂ™s what we did with the CRF450RвЂ™s seat.Plus, to keep them looking good, our вЂњin moldвЂќ graphics are more durable, especially after repeated track sessions and cleaning. FRESH STYLING: The 2022 CRF450R takes its styling cues right off our HRC works bikes.When we reduced the total number of fasteners needed to remove the body panels last year, maintenance off the bike got easier too. SLIM BODYWORK: The CRF450RвЂ™s extra-slim bodywork makes it a lot easier to move around on the bike, and that maximizes your riding freedom.
