2006 Honda 450 ER

[Trevor]

I seen it online lastnight on the honda .ca website. What is up with this thing I never herd of it. It has a different motor than the 45oR and also has all different dimentions.

You about a week behind there man, and its not an ER its still just plain 450r just with an electric start option. And yes the engine is more similar to the CRF dirt bike engine.

Really? I could have swore they thinned the seat out.

8mm lower riding position for lower center-of-gravity, improved handling and rider feel.
