Honda CRF450L. Is it the Ultimate Dualsport/light Adventure Bike?
Honda. I've loved them since the 80's when I got my first. An XR250. I've owned MANY bikes over the years, and I've got to say, the CRF450L might be the ultimate dualsport/light adventure bike.
I didn't go over all the mods on the bike in the video, so here is the list;
2019 CRF450L
-Vortex ECU
-Adventure Spec Tower
-Trail Tech Voyager Pro with coolant temp, tach and powered dock
-A to Z Composites carbon fiber fork guards
-FMF Q4 full exhaust with power bomb
-P3 Carbon fiber power bomb/header guard
-Recluse clutch cover (NIB recluse clutch, just not sure I'll use it)
-IMS billet Core foot pegs
-Emperor Racing radiator guards
-Emperor Racing skid plate
-IMS 3 gallon fuel tank
-Scaggs rear tail rack
-Emperor Racing tail tidy with enduro hinged license plate holder
-Seat Concepts saddle
-Acerbis X-Factor hand guards
-Dirt tricks steel rear sprocket
-Motion Pro air bleed valves on forks
-Works Chassis Lab titanium engine mounts
-Double Take mirrors
-San Diego Powerhouse thermostat delete kit
-San Diego Powerhouse kickstand safety bypass
-Phoenix handlebar and risers
-Tusk anodized oil filter cover
-BeRad front brake reservoir cover
-Works Connection EZ oil drain system
Left to do will be a suspension tune up by EVO suspension, and decide what tires are going to live on the bike if I find I don't like the Tusk D-sports currently on there. So far I'm not a fan.

What's your height n weight?
Good stuff, I’m in sw Washington. Hoping to make it to this next year.
Good stuff, I’m in sw Washington. Hoping to make it to this next year.
Yeah!!!
Not even close to an adventure bike with its service intervals. Good trail bike though.
Right on man. Bas ass. Let's ride!
Great bike,just been out on my 1290 sas up in the hills. How would I get one of your stickers?
shame that CRF450 needs so much additional expenditure after buying new to get it rideable
Hey Travis, nice to see you back out and about, that looks like a superbike to ride and I guess having that ECU you’re not gonna get that whiskey throttling, looking forward to your mods that will come on this bike. Take care and stay hairy!!
I run those tires on my KLR. I lowered pressure to 28 psi both front and rear and it was night and day different. I love the tires after lowering the pressure.
Great seeing you out and about! I’ve got a choice as well to get a lighter adv bike.
Sweet bike. I’d love to pick one up for a Supermoto conversion
Yep, only two problems of big bikes: weight and... weight. But a lot of riders stuborn refusing that fact.
Dr650 even drz400
Yo! Thanks for the cool video. May I recommend checking out the Mosko Reckless 😎
Pipeline rd
D sports on my ktm 500 did great and got 3000 miles but i had to run 8psi they seem to be a better fit for a heavy bike. I switched to the rallz and love them im on my second set
Nice looking setup
love this! I hear the genuine excitement in your voice. I changed jobs this year as well and lost all my vacation time. Its killing me, but I needed to make the change.
good stuff! vroom!
this video makes my day! freaking miss seeing these. take care!
Dork's old bike? No need to try newer DSports to know whether you like them. You don't. They suck. Especially the front tire. You can replace the front tire then keep the rear tire until it's completely worn out and then replace it with something you like. I've used Shinko MX216s and Kenda Trackmaster IIs on my 450L. Right now it's the Kendas. They're cheap enough even though the rear tire isn't long lasting and soft enough to change on the trail side with popsicle sticks if you forget your tire spoons. Not perfect but way better than the DSport tires.
No not Dorks old bike. Got this one from a friend of ours who had gotten it from another friend of ours
@@ExploreAdventureMoto I forgot to mention that since you already have the Rekluse available, it's worth a try. I got one about three weeks ago and it's a game changer. Turned a bike that was okay at tight single track into a real woods and single track weapon. The only downside is an increase in the weight of the clutch pull. But who cares? I only use the clutch lever when putting the bike in neutral, so maybe once per ride.... at the end. Otherwise, clutchless shifting and no more arm pump/tennis elbow. Easy enough to install and if you don't like it, easy enough to go back to stock. The Rekluse I have is the cheaper one, the Radius X 4.0. Maybe it's the newer 4.0 version of the EXP disc, but my bike still retains engine braking like stock while other bikes I've tried with the older Rekluse clutches sort of freewheel like a 2-stroke.
I have both the AT and the CRF450l. It is an excellent trail bike. Super capable for single track. Short tours would be fine but the AT is the right bike for longer trips. Enjoy your bike!
I wasn't happy with the Tusk tires on my 300Rally. I went Pirelli MT 21 front and Motoz Tractionator Enduro (ST) Soft terrain on the rear. Waaaay better once I scrubbed them in!
Try Michelin tracker tires, they work everywhere except sand, and get okay mileage.
To be fair, no tire aside from paddles work well in sand 😂
@@ExploreAdventureMoto exactly 👍
Have a look at Osbase 36 Kriega , brilliant quality and tuff.
That's a sick looking bike brother good to see you out again
Welcome back!
The rear Tusk tire is fine. The front sucks it's too thin.
Welcome back, Travis! Good to see you happy and healthy. Congrats on the new Honda.
I'm sold
Yay!
Excellent video! Welcome back! I like your edit and your new-to-you 4-fiddy! We missed you at Billy Bob's ADV gig last weekend, tho....
Welcome back Travis. Just let me know what you need and we will ship out more fork guards with your sweet logo. Great to see you riding again brother.
Probably not. It has a 'full on' motocross bike maint schedule. 5 hour mile oil changes, 1800 mile valve adjustment. Only has 550 cc's of oil for the engine. No cush drive. 14,000 mile complete engine rebuild. I'm not sure what it was built for, it hasn't been a big seller for those reasons.
Sort of depends how/where/what terrain it’s ridden on but I do agree. The service intervals are far too small for a bike that has this potential. Larger side case covers would help, maybe an oil cooler as well. Could have gone with a dry sump system like the drz has and have the oil in the frame also. Other than that, it’s oil changes on the trail with something to carry the used fluid in till next stop to dispose of
Love it. Stay hairy bud.
They are nice bikes...if they could get the service intervals up....maybe someone makes a new side cover to up the oil capacity? Garth
I’m looking into that. They did it for the Dakar bikes. Not sure if it’s a works only black box project or not
Check out Green Chile Adventure Gear for a luggage solution. I’ve got the scramble rack and a couple bag snakes for my AT and it works great! Did a 10000km trip from Vic. BC to Durango CO and back. Simple and works. Nice new bike! Thinking of doing the same.
Glad to see you picked the 450l. One other mod that really helps these bikes is the flywheel weight. Looking forward to watching your adventures.
I have considered the flywheel weight yes.
I’m really happy that the adventure is continuing for you Travis! 👍
hell yeah 🤘
if you're interested in upgrading you exhaust i have a full Graves system for sale with less than 100miles on it and im local!! HMU
Sweet bike!
Noice 👍 If/when you get famous on YT, please keep it real (not like your buddy Ben 😄) and don’t forget the little (i.e. non-Patreon viewers etc.) people. Since when aren’t subscribers good enough? Blame it on YT 🙄 Sorry, went off on a tangent there 🤣
Most excellent man! As a WR450 rider I can say you’ll feel good out on the trails. 450s seem to be a sweet spot. Mine with all the street legal mods still only weighs 280lbs.
Giant Loop Coyote bag, Tillamook dry bag and possibles pouches for my tools and spare tube work great for my WR450
That title would get you dragged from your home and flogged in my area! The KTM Mafia is STRONG! - Frank
Have to catch me in that broke down bike first 😂
