09 September 2013 - When Honda's 2014 motocross models race into town they will impress riders not only with their championship-winning credentials, but also with their hotter than hot Ready to Ride™ prices.

Making its way to Honda Dealerships this week is the revamped 2014 CRF250R which will race back out of dealerships doors for a competitive, all inclusive Ready to Ride™ price of just $9,697. The larger but no less agile 2014 CRF450R which will be available in mid-October will also be competitively priced at just $10,697 Ready to Ride™.

Honda's Ready to Ride™ pricing is inclusive of the Manufacturers List Price, pre-delivery and freight to dealer charges, ensuring that customers will know exactly what they need to be competitive in the dirt in 2014.

Class-leading handling, improved power and trimmed weight will define Honda's new CRF250R. Boasting a new aluminium frame, an updated fork, new swingarm, new shock and linkage ratio along with Honda's patented dual-muffler exhaust and engine advancements, the 2014 CRF250R will be an unbeatable motocross machine in 2014.

A new aluminium beam frame is at the heart of the 2014 CRF250R's transformation which, with its low centre of gravity and reduced turning inertia helps improve the already stunning handling abilities over the ground and also in the air.

The CRF250R's 249cc engine has received a multitude of upgrades from HRC's development engineers for 2014 including major work on the Programmed Fuel Injection, gas flow through the cylinder head as well as intake and exhaust efficiency.

Honda's CRF450R, which enjoyed major advancements in 2013, will boast an even more competitive edge in 2014 thanks to modifications to the engine and updates to the suspension. Its powerful 449cc single-cylinder engine delivers improved bottom-end torque thanks to new dual fuel-injection timing and updated twin rear silencers.

With crisp styling in line with Honda's racing lineage, the 2014 CRF450R and CRF250R's bodywork maintains the triangular proportions synonymous with Honda's CRF family.

See your Honda Dealer today and be a championship motocross rider in 2014.
