I am not going to sit here and tell you that I am even close to an “adventure rider”, but I do love getting out and exploring through the deserts and mountains near my home on dual purpose built machines. I also like to grab the wife, stick her on the back at times, so…
The 2020 Honda CRF450R is a popular machine. After all of my years with Dirt Rider Magazine as well as doing my own thing over here at Keefer Inc. Testing there has been one thing that hasn't changed… The amount of page views and questions that I get about the Honda are always more than…
