You asked for it, so here it is: a true rally replica that's street legal! Honda's CRF450L Rally Concept is based of their new 2019 CRF450L, but with a host of rally-ready upgrades. The bike makes an appearance at the 2018 EICMA show in Milan, Italy.

At this time, not much is known about the CRF450L Rally Concept, but here are a bunch of notable features we spotted:

• A 5.2 gallon gas tank that extends the height of the bike. This is substantial compared to the stock CRF450L's 2.1 gallon tank, but certainly not as high-capacity as Ricky Brabec's HRC Dakar bike (about 9 gallons).

That is, unless your morning commute involves being pinned for miles at a time. 

• Full Termignoni exhaust system, probably titanium to reduce weight. The stocker on the standard CRF450L looks hefty, so this upgrade is sure to shave lots of weight and increase power across the board.

• Carbon skid plate that protects the entire bottom of the bike including the exhaust, wrapping around to meet the bodywork. It's got a screen designed into the front to allow airflow to cool the engine.

• Rally-inspired bodywork with D-ring fastners for quick servicing. We're glad to see full gas tanks instead of plastic shrouds used on the CRF250L Rally.

• The saddle is a Japanese Noguchi seat which supports HRC in their rally efforts. Actually acquiring one of these seats in the States is quite pricey (we tried to get one for our
