2014 Yamaha YFZ450 R, NERF BARS FMF EXHAUST LOW HOURS YFZ450RYFZ450R - Your Podium Awaits! The original and ultimate race-ready 450 cubic centimeter class sport ATV wears the AMA ATV MX crown and is now assembled in the USA.ADDITIONAL FEATURESThe instrumentation is all business. The discrete panel on the fender in front of the rider gives vital indicators about low fuel, coolant temperature, check engine, and neutral gear via a straightforward LED display.The throttle lever requires low effort, and it s very comfortable to use. That means less fatigue during long motos.CHASSIS / SUSPENSIONFoot pegs are a generous 2.6 inches wide, something riders will appreciate every time they want to get up on the pegs. New heel guards provide more room and are positioned closer to the chassis for a slimmer feel.For excellent stopping ability, YFZ450R features dual front hydraulic disc brakes and a trick-looking, lightweight wave-type rear rotor.The frame is a combination of aluminum and steel for light weight. The frame member under the engine is steel, used for its combination of strength and low profile. This allowed the designers to sit the engine lower overall for excellent mass centralization for unmatched handling. The aluminum frame is bolted together, rather than welded, for maximum durability.Wheels are set motocross-spec wide, near the maximum allowable 50 inches, for great cornering speed. The Maxxis® tires are designed to help provide excellent handling, sliding control, and traction. At 20 inches in the rear and 21 inches in the front, they provide much better ground clearance than the competition. That makes the YFZ450R fun to ride off-road, too.The new front KYB® shocks are longer for increased suspension stroke with superb bump absorption and excellent anti-bottoming characteristics, and they have Kashima coating for smooth operation. The 9.8 inches of wheel travel means this racer is up to even the most challenging tracks.The rear swingarm is crafted of strong, gravity-fed aluminum, and it s matched to a fully adjustable 46 mm KYB® piggyback shock absorber for excellent handling. Rear wheel travel is 11 inches for comfort even on tough terrain.The new body configuration allows more room for even an aggressive racer to move around during the moto. The seat is narrow in the front, yet wide and padded in the rear to reduce fatigue, especially when railing a turn.Large diameter, tapered handlebars reduce vibration and are mounted on 4-way clamps for exceptional adjustability. There are two sets of holes in the handlebar crown and the eccentric clamps so the rider can choose the standard setting, 10 mm or 20 mm forward, or 10 mm back.The front frame is as narrow as possible at the A-arm mounting points. This dramatically increases the A-arm length, which reduces changes in camber as the suspension travels through it
