Do any of you know anyone using one? If so what year is the 450R if that is the correct model?

I am running the CRF450 chain. I think I was one of the first to "pioneer" the idea on here. Nobody else wanted to step up :D
I have the chain out of the 2002-current bikes in mine. It makes more sense to me to by the $25 chain rather than the $100+ chain from the aftermarket.

I'm running one also in my 440, everything seems to be fine. I have about 4 or 5 hours on it now! I heard that the crf cam chain is the same one the other motor builders sell as the "heavy duty cam chain"!
