Remember the Honda CR electric dirt bike prototype? The firm first pulled the covers off this project in front of the public at the 2019 Tokyo Motorcycle Show. Since it was a prototype, Honda could choose to reveal as much or as little information about it as it wanted. While you could clearly see things like the Showa front fork, Nissin brakes, and Dunlop tires, all the pertinent powertrain details on the CR Electric were left as a mystery.
Fast forward to 2023, and now Honda is ready to take the CR Electric prototype and send it. More specifically, Honda Racing Corporation will be taking the CR Electric prototype to round eight of the D.I.D. All Japan Motocross Championship. Round Eight’s official title is the Saitama Toyopet Cup, and will be held at Offroad Village Saitama on October 28 and 29, 2023.
