As with the Supersport Series, the FIM 2004 Motocross World Championship Series will be supported by HEM. Honda has decided to use three four-stroke CRF450Rs in the MXGP class and a four-stroke CRF250R in the 125cc class. With these four-stroke bikes Honda is poised for championships in both classes.
