most of the upgrades ! .. on the 450l are in fact down grades
to make the 450R useable as a duel sport..
pull the heart out of the 450R and replace it with a big
scoop of vanilla … then you have a duelsport that joe average
can ride anywhere.. what a duelsport has to be...

the 450R is the real deal ,but the 450l if you look into it more is more the middle of the road from the 250r ,an comeing in at about 43hp .the bike is for those who need to travel on road to get to the outside track,or some desent trails ,an it does require the same maintenance as a super cross dirt bike ,but the price is way off ,now for those who can some how get the 450r set up for on road great, its not detuned by much to make it dot ,an one can let out about 7hp,getting closer to 50hp,i would not buy simpley because of price ,but in a few years they will sell used cheap,honeslty I don't think the 450r is made for your average joe ,its made for experienced riders pretty much

Honda has so many choises for off road more then anyone ,if I wanted a desent off road bike ,its hard to beat the 250f an used for like $2500.00
