Dakar Rallye CRF450R Replica for less than $2500?
No way!
Anyone have more information on these bikes?
How about a Dakar Rally replica:
The base motorcycle is sold in Australia as the Odes MCF450-R AKA AsiaWing LX450 as distributed in Europe. Roketa imports the base model for North America.
USD$2300 for a complete motorcycle.
Reports on forums suggest this is a Chinese clone of a Honda CRF450X; and all parts are interchangeable with Honda OEM parts.
Shown as raced and completing the 2012 Dakar by #94 Wei Guang Hui the Rallye bike was entered in the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Dakar as a Jincheng JC450Y. The JC450Y is suspected to be either a cloned CRF450X or a rebadged Yamaha WRF450? with a Mecasystems Rally Kit
