Ever since Honda introduced the Motocross series, riders all over the world have been in awe of the performance and versatility these machines deliver. However, in 2023, Honda has outdone itself by unveiling the new Honda Motorcycle Motocross Series CRF450RS. With exceptional design, a powerful engine, and innovative features, this machine has set a new benchmark for Motocross bikes.
At the heart of the new CRF450RS is a vigorous 450cc liquid-cooled Unicam single-cylinder engine, a significant enhancement to provide more power for adrenaline-pumping off-road drives. Further upping the game, Honda has bolted on a close-ratio five-speed transmission promising flawless gear shifts under any terrain. Users also get to enjoy the convenience of an electric starter, a feature that underlines Honda’s attention to detail.
What sets this model apart, even more, is its titanium fuel tank - a sturdy yet lightweight design functioning to keep the bike’s weight in check without compromising fuel capacity. Additionally, the next-generation twin-spar aluminum frame ensures optimal stability and flexibility when scaling rugged landscapes.
Adopting leading-edge technology, Honda has integrated the must-have HRC launch control and the progressive engine mode select button. This allows riders to adjust their bike's performance to suit their riding style and terrain, setting the CRF450RS as a top pick in any motocross competition.
For the suspension, we are looking at a 49mm inverted Showa fork at the front and Pro-Link Showa single shock at the rear, capable of 12.0-inch and 12.4-inch travel respectively. It efficiently absorbs and distributes the shocks from the most undulating terrains, providing an unmatched riding comfort. At both ends, the CRF450RS uses Dunlop's MX33 - 80/100-21 at the front and 120/80-19 at the rear. This choice of tyres enables greater control and firm grip on all surfaces.
Offered with an MSRP of $8799, considering its top-of-the-line features, powerful performance, and the brand's reputation, the 2023 Honda Motorcycle Motocross Series CRF450RS indeed takes the throne in its segment. There's no doubt that Honda has outdone themselves this time, by bringing us a pure motocross marvel. As we head into 2023, we can assure that with the unveiling of the CRF450RS, motocross riding is set to become even more thrilling and enjoyable than ever before.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
