Honda wheeled out a new-look version of its prototype electric MX race bike at Suzuka in Japan on Sunday. Compared to the bike that was first unveiled in 2019, it features new colours on the bodywork to ape the newer CRF450R and it has the blue seat and gold wheels of the 50th anniversary edition.

But the bike looks little changed in terms of the frame, suspension and the electric motor. Even the plastic is still the old-shape. There is still no news when the bike might go on sale.
