       Home > Dual Sport > Honda CRF450RL Parts > SRmoto Honda CRF450RL ADV/SM Project Bike With this particular CRF450L/RL Supermoto Conversion, we're going for more of an Adventure Bike themed Supermoto. We plan to ride this bike a lot on the street, using it to commute back and forth to the shop, but we also want to take it on the occasional dirt road and gravel road. So, with this specific supermoto project bike, we've gone with Warp 9 spoked tubeless supermoto wheels, and mounted up Avon Trailrider tires, which are a 90/10 tire (90% street/10% dirt). These tires offer great traction on pavement, and will allow you to venture off-road just a bit if you so desire. Converting a CRF450L/RL to a supermoto is pretty straightforward (see our CRF450RL Supermoto Conversion Guide). All you really need is a good set of 17" supermoto wheels like the ones we use from Warp 9 Racing, and then some 17" tires like the Avon Trailriiders we're using on this bike (see details below). There are a few things you need to do to fit the smaller 17" wheels/tires. Up front, in order to clear the smaller 17" supermoto tire, you have to re-route the front brake line to the outside of the fork leg and also trim the plastic lower fork protectors so the front tire doesn't rub. On some dual sports, you need need to source a shorter kick stand so the bike doesn't stand straight up with the kickstand down.... but with the CRF450L, you don't need to, and the stock kickstand works just fine. As for a rear sprocket, the gearing you choose is a personal preference type of thing, but on this bike we went with a 44T and like it for the type of back-road riding we do with this bike. SUPERMOTO WHEELS/TIRES: - Black Rims, Gold Hubs, Silver Nipples, Silver Spokes - 17" x 3.5" front wheel, 17" x 4.25" rear wheel - Tubeless Option - Warp 9 Racing Rear Sprocket, Black, 44T - Stock Size Front Rotor ENGINE/PERFORMANCE: ** NOTE: The Yoshimura exhaust is approved by Yoshi for the CRF450X off-road bike. It is not currently recommended or approved for use on the CRF450L/RL dual sport. So, to make our bike run properly, we are using a JD Jetting EFI Controller and have adjusted the Controller settings to JD Jettings recommended settings for an aftermarket exhaust/air filter.
