The 2021 Honda CRF450 is all new from the ground up. There aren't too many parts that will carry over from the 2020 model and that means that Honda spent some serious R&D money to make this a completely new bike. The new Honda has a new frame, new hydraulic clutch, new shock spring, new map switches, new suspension, new single-muffler exhaust system, new seat, new airbox, new plastics, and much more. Check out what the Motocross Action wrecking crew has to say about their first day of testing the 2021 Honda CRF450 out at Glen Helen Raceway in Southern California. We hope you find this extremely detailed video informative and it helps you decide if you might be interested in riding a Honda for 2021. Like.Subscribe.Share.

Motocross Action drinking game......every time they say “KTM” you drink.
Shoutout to Josh Mosiman, he's talking so much, but never gets anoying or boring, just crisp informations spot on, keep on the cool work! Thumbs up big time ;-)
Thank you Walter, I appreciate it! The goal is always to be informative with detailed info about each bike, while also entertaining enough to keep the video interesting.
detailed and comprehensive review . much appreciated MXA
I own a 2020 crf450r brand new picked up few months back..i have no complaints for high speed bike handles great I even take in on trails.
This video from the one camera angle shows how steep glen helens climbs are 😲
I can attest from the GH 24. They are so steep, no matter how hard you try to stop, you will be going faster at the bottom. Freaky at night.
I was lucky enough to ride there when I was in the states for a riding trip...or unlucky cause of my C grade skills haha
Please dont disrespect honda by calling it a red KTM
wdym its a compliment
Kranky kola not a compliment comparing it to that euro trash
Ktm never been anywhere near the quality of Hondas builds.
For the working man, money best spent on a Honda.
@@pennohrc true ktm are expensive
Yeah ktm is wayyy better. Never put them on the same level!
One of the best MXA videos I have seen. Really good comments and feedback presented by the rider.
Well done indeed
I agree Josh is excellent in his descriptions of the 2021 Honda, the bike looks like a great ride
I really wish I had the money to buy this bike, but after purchasing a new TM EN300ES and aftermarket parts I'm as broke as ever! Gone are the days of buying a new bike for 5-6k - especially where I live!!! It sucks that it takes 5 years to obtain two new bikes because of my inflated west coast mortgage and added utilities and insurance etc.
Guess I should just be happy that I have such a great bike now cause it's more than many people have! I'll be scrounging & saving every last dime until I can get the RX version of this bike...these seem every bit as beautiful as the late 80's Honda CRs! Super pumped and stoked to watch this video in a few hours!!! Let's get it on!!!!!! 🇺🇸🤘💪👊
Hopefully, you're not talking about my beloved TM??? That is still new...as far as the bike before the TM, it has been sold for awhile now, but the Yami was good to me! I'll just need to start saving. Haha
Ngl I think people really liked this bike cause of the duel exhaust
Nah single looks more beefy , twin made it to fancy
Yeah thats why I liked it but its ok cause I own a 2020 and its awesome👌

Yeah thats why I liked it but its ok cause I own a 2020 and its awesome👌
Thats the one thing i dont like.
I always had a hard time finding comfort on any Honda. It seems like the immediate set-up and chassis is for a slightly shorter rider. Being 6ft1 and lanky the Honda's unfortunately never worked for me. The 2021 looks absolutely fantastic.
Nice review of the 450 Honda. Also the moose gear is looking cool, retro looking. 👍
Esa marca honda es lo máximo, que motor tan poderoso y tiene una gran potencia, felicidades 🤗👍
Love the vids man🔥❤️
Great well put together overview and video. Huge thumbs up.
Thanks a ton!
I love this bike this is my dream bike nice review for this crf 450r hopefully I get my dream bike thank you
Never buy the 1st year of a new design, give em a year or 2 to work the kinks out
Josh Great Vid u Really went ovr alot more thn the othr guys did n thr vids. the history U gave on the Bike is SO TRUE. I worked 4 a Honda/Yam/Suz Shop 4 almost 25yrs. I think not bein able 2 change the map on the fly kinda sucks. smebdy nds 2 cme up wth solution 4 tht. the 450 Shootout is nxt week Right. Wick On ✊MXA
Thank you John, I appreciate it! Glad you liked the history and details I spoke on
Beautiful work of art and nice riding there.
Great job!! Excellent review.
Great job Josh.. Thnx MXA..
Glad you liked it!
Does anyone else really like the look and features of the 2021 bike, but wish they kept the awesome looking dual mufflers and sticker kit of the 2020?
But i do like the new plastics not gonna lie
@@markadams4966 yeah but Roczens 2020 factory honda is so hot ngl.
@@lucamontone8156 i hear i hear you
Dual exhaust was just for looks no real performance but I do agree with you the dual exhaust looked awesome
Weight loss
Shoutout to the guys at motocross action for making a great video. "I really appreciated it." ;)
How is it that every single year you guys say essentially that “oh this one is amazing, last years wasn’t good”????? When last year you tested it, you didn’t say that. Ridiculous reviewers are never honest!!!!!!
They all do it. Dirt Bike Magazine, Dirt Rider, Cycle World, etc... I know what you're talking about. They've been doing it forever. I can remember reading articles through out the 80's, 90's, 00's and thinking they had so much good to say about a bike only to trash it a few years later.
Hey Brandon, I understand a lot of people do say stuff like that, but have you seen our 2020 Honda CRF450 video or read our magazine article on that bike last year?? I feel like we were pretty vocal about our opinion on last year's bike and I reflected on that in this 2021 video.

@@thebeez9487 I understand that a lot of people say stuff like that, but I feel like we were pretty vocal on our opinions last year. Read or watch here and correct me if I'm wrong. Test Article: @t First Ride impressions video: @t
Thats not entirely true. The 2007-2008 crf450 was a good bike. Honda went to fuel injection in 2009 and mxa was critical of crf’s for years after always remembering the 07-08 as being a better bike. That being said all these machines are awesome these days no matter what the brand. I have a 2019 CRF450rwe loving it and will probably get the 2021. Also you need to read the magazine review they are more consistent these online first ride videos are all over the place sometimes seems better when they have the shootout and compare bikes back to back. Just get what you like and ride.
I have read MXA since early 70's and they do not do that. They tell it like they see it. No ads from manufacturers so no incentive to not tell the true story.
Yes hydro clutches work awesome!
Good review. I cannot wait to the WE.
the boys at ride engineering will get the bike working good
I am glad I just did top end on my CRF 450R 2008, it is nice to hear that unless it is a 2021, 2008 450R is still the best bike.
That's one beautiful machine
wow the best bike of this year
Looks like another dusty day at the Ram Ranch!
big hard throbbing four strokes
Lmao
Time to start warming up to my Honda dealer again
Ready for the refi once my dealer gets one in stock
Me too. Got my hands on 1st '21 450F coming into my dealer here in NW Ohio. Rock on!
Finally a Honda that looks like a Honda again! a proper MX albeit a 4t, what did they resurrect MR Honda! the last guy and time that Honda was a successful MX/SX brand, plus did the 2t Honda engineers get brought out of the basement, to engineer this because the bike looks like it came from all those guys, it looks so much slimmer, lighter and just a proper looking MX bike, the air box single bolt is a bit disappointing, come on can’t ya get that sorted like KTM too, it’s taken them to bring you into the real dirtbike world again and drop that road and scooter bike mentality again you have been so stubborn about for the last 10 years, hopefully the 250 will follow suit this year as well.
Be nice to see a company go back to all models updated in the same calendar year, none of this modern trickle down BS, I still remember the best year Honda released all new CR80/ CR125R and CR250R and 500R in 1986 all 4 won shootouts everywhere and I got me the 125, still one of my favourite Honda’s ever and favourite bikes ever, the whole range was awesome, amazing bikes and times. 80s, 125s, 250s and 500s were dominant and at every event back then.So good job Honda like the results you aren’t the leader innovator like you once were during the 80s and 90s but good to see you back better late than never. Still would have liked a Blue seat, never can get used to the red seat. Guess will have to wait a bit longer for perfection, but it looks good and I haven’t said that about a Honda MX bike since the 07 CR250R.
Good job MXA as well, good initial review.
The 500s are *STILL* out there winning.
I'm not into motox but this bike is just so damn beautiful
Best Bro Continuoes Trail Motobike , ..... God Bless All, ...... Cheerio.🌠👍👍👍🌠🌠🌟🌠🌠.
The best 450r, Honda rules
Just got one of these bikes, supposed to get it in week!
Sheesh about time , been wondering about the new honda
Love this bike!
From what it sounds like.. KTM still the best and I could tell by watching Gajser race this bike. He hasn't been blowing people away or pulling holeshots with it. Would like to know the durability on this bike also.
KTM know how to make a race bike for the masses they've always been my weapon of choice
Like that new sight glass design
Oh no you have to loosen a bolt on the airbox 😂 thats the least of my worries , its a great bike
I wonder if this chassi would be compatible for my CR500 motor.
To me honda makes un matched bikes. Power, reliable once tweaked some a straight winner. Just like in the 90s honda rules 2 strokes now not so much but compared to other companies Honda seems to be a notch higher than the rest.
i went to the dirtbike shop today and saw it!
Definitely looks sick
I loved my 08 crf450 then I got a 2010 and it was SSSOOOOOO much better. Now I hate the geometry of my 08. Maybe I'm built weird or have a strange riding style? I can't help but think I'm NOT the only guy out there that prefers the 1st gen fi crf450 frame/geometry. I currently ride a CR500AF. Its an 09 crf450 fitted with a 95 cr500 engine. By far thee best of both worlds in my irrelevant humble opinion of course.
You aren’t the only one. I like my 09 way better than 05-08.
Roczen should be the Supercross Champion Next Year in 2021.
Good review.
Woow Nice ride!
on the fly map switch is good only for magazine testers. Its not good when you race and accidentally switch your map. Many pro riders eliminate all map and fancy "buttons" from handlebar
Can't wait...
I thought the 2019 CRF 450 was a great bike?? no?
Наконец то!!!!!🙌🙌🙌
Cole seely why I got back on Honda 🤣
sounds like Husky is way ahead of the game when they had this 3 years ago XD
The sound tho🥵🥵
Is the 2021 also 60hp ? It makes more wheel horsepower than a 2019, I own both a 19 and 21 and can’t feel no power difference at all
Doesn’t this guy remind anyone of Cole Seely? I thought it was him 😂 all these past videos
My dealership from upstate New York won’t be getting a 21 crf450r until November 3rd.... why is it getting so delayed?
I'm buying one
I want to but I need a 250 so i can race because I’m only 15 and once I turn 16 people in the 450 class would’ve already been on the 250 and now on the 450 so my best chance is by starting on a 250 I’ve been riding since I was four but not on a track which doesn’t apply to the track, just being comfortable on two wheels
Better then yz450f 2021?
Looks fucking cool. The CRF-450R will always be my dream bike although I will kina miss the duel pipes.
I’m getting this bike
it needs a blue seat ?
The past gen Honda was the best looking with the duals and they didn’t have the ugly shrouds
i have this bike & the ECU is still cutting off when i crack on the throttle. in mid traffic it does that.
BUT what about the cut depth ? is the grass collection bag extra ? what other accessories can i get ? like a thatcher or log splitter? 4strokes are the #Real-dolls of motocross racing drink your hateraide!
Vous faites tu un rodage quand vous essayer les nouveaux bike??
When are they putting out the 250
the 250 update is always the year after the 450...so 2022
Honda runs on a 4 year model cycle, and as the guy above said, the 250 is a year behind, so 2022. This bike likely will not change, aside from minor updates, until 2025, and the after next year's update, the 250 will not until '26.
filmling the hour meter with 0.3 h vs 2,5 h said :D
Kid's smoother than a buttered muffin on that thing
Great rider...
So your telling me that’s not a ktm😂
Nope it's a Honda
Tyson Tollstrup heard of sarcasm?
Callum Brown yeah 🤡🤡
Back in the Old Days Jeremy McGrath Won 4 250 Supercross Titles in a Row On Team Honda 1993-1996, and Returned to Honda in 2004.
@@tysonthewolfe93 Carmichael had 2 perfect seasons with honda almost 3 if it weren't for one mistake
Very good
Can you please make a 2021 crf 450RX
So been debating this or the 2021 YZ450f that red hit so different and that’s my favorite color but people been saying Yamaha
roy east thanks
Is this a good starter bike I’m 10 and 3,11 I’m huge
Naiss video 😊
☝1 exhaust 👍👍👍
How tall is the rider? Please inform. I am trying to understand the ergonomics for different in height riders. Thanks.
THIS IS ALL NEW . Okey great honda
Cooler exhaust two
I hate 4strokes but, I really like the new look.
It came out good Honda makes the Best Dirtbikes.
Why should u ever hate 4 strokes?
U cant live in 2002 nonstop with 2 strokes.
@@smark2016 my CR500af is much faster. Way easier and cheaper to maintain. 4pukes such ass.
Dennis Millus I’m sorry to tell I enjoy both but a cr500 is not faster than the new 450s anymore.
@@donny-2964 lmao you need to get it out of second gear.
Keren parah jirr.. Apa daya cuma punya klx.. :(
I love the bike except for the duel exhaust
Still waiting for the 250 and 500 2t.
Youll be waiting a long time.
Honda hates 2-strokes, even the ones they made.
KTM-450-SXF-Factory Edition!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Insanity!!!
Ein sehr geiles Bike
Honda crf 450 R 2021 single Muffler
sure is nice looking
I have 3 different deposits at 3 different dealers for this bike and can't get anything solid about when it will be released and available. Rideing hondas for 32 years and with the way I've been treated and lied to I might take my 10k and get a green or blue bike the dealers have no problem giving me all the info I've asked for.
Blame Covid
Apparently you need to try a KTM. I guarantee you'll never ride anything else after that... they are that good.
go KTM-450-SXF-Factory Edition, you will bow on your knees before Zod!!!!
You will be happy with the YZ or KX, both great bikes
@@krkabob you cant say that when youve ever ridden any other dirtbike
what will be the price
I don't like the look of the front number plate. The bolt in the center just throws it off
i have never owned or rode a dirt bike, but i saw one of these at the dealership... question im 5'6 , is this bike to big for me? it looked huge in person
Honestly that's not really a question someone can answer just by knowing your height and how tall the bike is. There's quite a few factors that come in to play in regards to that. I've seen people that are maybe an inch or two over 5 foot tall riding a 450 with ease and I've seen someone 6'4 riding a 250f.
He said 2.5 hrs on the bike but the hour meter said 0.3?
I'm a new rider is this a good beginner bike
took people long enough to realise the issue on the 2009 to 2016 and nobody was honest with it, so that kinda made me wonder if honda is trust worthy
New this new that....... New New New still not getting one cos on a 1991 KX 500 myself and others have gone faster than a 2020 CRF 450 and shock horror I reckon at least 70% of the bikes on the grids at our amateur races are restored 80s and 90s 2 strokes. Easier to maintain cheaper to run and a whole community that loves them.
im only 5'5, would i be able to ride 450s??? or even 250s?
The 450 and 250 are both the same size, but the 450 is more powerful. It depends more on skill level than it does on size when you're deciding to try a 250 or 450. Which bikes have you ridden so far?
