HIGH PERFORMANCE BRAKING SYSTEM
A large 270mm front brake rotor is coupled with a Nissin caliper to provide excellent braking performance. Out back, rear brake feel is improved by reducing the rigidity of the brake hose providing a wider range of control at the pedal.
COMPACT FIVE-SPEED TRANSMISSION
Tri-shaft transmission layout vertically stacks the transmission shafts, raising the centre shaft and forming a triangle between the crank, drive shaft and main shaft for a lighter, more compact transmission.
RACE-WINNING DETAILS
The YZ450F boasts a wide range of top-spec details including aluminium tapered handlebars, compact PVC handlebar pad, lightweight throttle cable, wide footpegs with lightweight aluminium alloy brackets, a quick-adjust clutch perch and seamless seat.
STRONG, LIGHTWEIGHT WHEELS
Careful computer-aided design of each wheel's cross-sectional profile shaves weight without sacrificing durability. The YZ450F's rear wheel comes laced with a three-cross-spoke pattern for improved impact absorption and rider feel.
CLASS-LEADING SUSPENSION
The precisely tuned aluminium bilateral beam frame provides just the right amount of strength and flex for the perfect balance of stability and cornering performance. The result is a better handling machine with lighter feel, more agility and increased traction allowing the rider to enter corners with greater confidence and more line choices.
OPTIMISED AIR INTAKE
Optimised intake path draws air from under the side covers and seat allowing for a lighter, slimmer and more compact shroud area. The airbox cover sits low and is narrow, surrounded by the slim radiator shrouds.
LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINIUM BEAM FRAME
