Torrance, CA (2/7/2008) -
Honda’s TRX450R took on the ATV racing
world in 2007, winning 10 major championships.
In the hard-knocks sport of ATV racing, it
takes a rare combination of speed and durability
to win races and championships. Honda’s
TRX450R has proven it has that winning combination.
From grueling long-distance desert races to
high-flying motocross, flat-track and cross-country
races, the TRX450R’s amazing versatility
and dependability has made it the machine to
beat for the fifth year in a row.

“The TRX450R’s dependability helps
us dominate,” said racer Wayne Matlock.
“Being able to run every race without
failure or “DNF” definitely gives
us an advantage in the harsh BITD series desert
conditions.”
Introduced in 2004, the TRX450R incorporates
Honda’s innovative class-leading CRF450R-derived
Unicam four-stroke engine technology, and a
chassis designed to deliver ultimate performance
no matter what the racing discipline.
Honda congratulates all the 2007 ATV champions,
and looks forward to another successful race
season in 2008.
