I was thinking what if Service Honda took a new crf450x and dropped an XR400 engine into the chassis? It would make for an awesome bullet proof trail bike with modern technology. Honda is definitely lacking in their lineup of off road bike that are bullet proof like the old XR's used to be. The crf230s are great and all but something with a little more grunt would be nice. Also with the update chassis and components wouldn't an XR400 engine in a crf450x chassis weigh about the same, making the once old heavy pig better suited for tighter trails? What do ya think AJ?

All they need to do is put good quality SS valves (no Ti) in the crf450x motor and maybe a bit milder cam. No need to bring back old/heavy technology....

While the XR400 was reliable and torquey, I don't think it was quite as great as some of you guys remember it.

Or someone could put a cylinder with a bigger bore on a 250X.
