2014 Dakar: Honda CRF 450 Rally

The 2014 Honda CRF 450 Rally retains the PGM fuel injection, but numerous updates have been added to the new machinery. The 2014 Dakar bike will be tested in the Morocco Rally 2013 which starts on 13 October. Honda will have the 5-rider team announced earlier this year: Helder Rodrigues (Portugal, 34), Sam Sunderland (UK, 24), Javier Pizzolito (Arg, 33), Joan Barreda (Spain, 29), and Paulo Goncalves (Portugal, 34). -
TEAM HRC will participate in 2013 Morocco Rally starting October 13 with CRF450 RALLY, using the same combination of five riders and five machines for the 2014 Dakar Rally. Testing in actual race conditions is expected to provide useful data for further refinements and enhancements.
