Features

Engine:

  • 449cc liquid-cooled, DOHC four-stroke with five valves features 95mm bore and 63.4mm stroke for massive power with high over-rev capacity and crisp, linear throttle response.
  • A large 42mm Mikuni® BSR carburetor delivers precise fuel/air mixing and crisp throttle response with low throttle lever effort.
  • Smooth-shifting YZ-spec ratchet-type five-speed transmission and heavy-duty clutch deliver all that power to the rear tires with maximum efficiency.
  • Large-capacity radiator is optimally mounted in the frame to guard against damage.
  • Reliable pushbutton electric start in any gear adds extra convenience.
  • Additional weight-saving engine features include: magnesium cylinder head cover and right-side crankcase cover.
  • Dry-sump engine carries oil in an aluminum tank directly in front of the engine for excellent cooling and optimal protection from rocks or mud.
  • Large capacity airbox features no-tool access to the extra large oiled dual-foam filter for easy maintenance.

Chassis/Suspension:

  • Independent aluminum upper A-arm front suspension features 9.1 inches of travel.
  • Rear suspension system uses YZ-linkage type, controlled by a piggyback shock with 10.6 inches of travel.
  • Dual hydraulic front brakes with 127mm discs and class-exclusive, dual-piston hydraulic 173mm rear disc provide strong braking capability with progressive control and feel.
  • The wheel has been designed with the inner lip rolled in. This increases the rigidity, allowing a reduction in weight while maintaining strength.
  • High-performance 21x7-10 front and 20x10R9 rear Dunlop® radials, designed specifically for the YFZ450, deliver superb, class-leading traction.
  • Ultra-rigid cast aluminum swingarm reduces unsprung weight and provides optimal suspension action.
  • Long travel out back means an excellent ride and handling.
  • Eccentric chain adjuster mechanism simplifies that job.
  • Long, low, and narrow YZ-style seat enhances the quick, balanced steering and optimal rider movement.

Additional Features:

  • Rugged steel 45mm foot rests provide excellent grip and rider comfort.
  • Large-capacity, 2.6-gallon fuel tank provides excellent range.
  • Dual 30-watt multireflector Krypton headlights set back in the front cowl add the perfect menacing appearance. 21/5W taillight is tough, and incorporates a brakelight for added convenience.
