2016 Kawasaki KX 450F, 2016 Kawasaki KX 450F THIS IS OUR PROOF The new KX 450F motorcycle is more powerful, lighter, and more agile than ever before. Developed from the highest levels of racing, this championship bike has advanced technology, sourced straight from the world s premier race team another reason why the KX450F is The Bike That Builds Champions. Features May Include: Race-Team-Inspired Bridged-Box Bottom piston is lightweight and revised to match new intake valves to optimize combustion efficiency for maximum increased performance at all RPM's Lighter, more powerful engine with improved throttle response, broad power delivery, and increased peak power New exhaust header with integrated resonator for improved throttle response at low RPM and reduced exhaust sound level New high flow airbox with rear air intake channels Rear seat intakes ensure clean airflow and contribute to reduces engine response Much lighter aluminum perimeter frame for shaper handling New forged down-tube for increased rigidity and front end feel Slimmer perimeter spars and narrow shrouds allow easier rider movement Optimized rigidity in a new swingarm to improve rear wheel traction New bodywork is lighter weight with aggressive styling Flatter seat makes it easier to change riding position Smoother, seamless surface at the rider s contact points Adjustable four-position handlebar moves the handlebar towards or away from your body Two-position adjustable footpegs help reduce knee angle when seated New lighter inner fork tubes with reduced rigidity to match the new chassis and improve front end feel New low friction fork seals New revised valve settings Handheld FI calibration kit eliminates need for laptop and 12V battery at the track Allows the user to adjust fuel and ignition settings for ultimate performance Can store up to seven preset maps for different tracks Factory-tuned power settings with plug-and-play versatility Select a coupler to access one of the three different preset engine maps Race-team-derived feature for grabbing the holeshot Engages with a press of a button Functions in first and second gear Precise ignition timing helps ensure quicker acceleration with less slippage
2012 Kawasaki KX 450F, 2015 Timbersled LT Long Track Snowbike Kit available with fitment kit for a KX450F at an additional cost of $4K. 2015 Timbersled LT Long Track Snowbike Kit available with fitment kit for a KX450F at an additional cost of $4K. 2012 Kawasaki KX 450F Prepare for Launch 2012 KX 450F highlights begin with the Supercross winning DNA of last year s bike. The advanced design of the aluminum perimeter frame and dominating motor received a host of refinements to create a more compact and mass-centralized chassis propelled by more useable power than ever. Headlining the technological charge, the KX450F features an all new Launch Control Mode, which is tuned to maximize traction out of the starting gate. This is accomplished without sacrificing any of the mid-range grunt or straight-line speed that made the KX450F famous. Highlights The 2012 highlights begin with the Supercross-winning DNA of last year s bike. The advanced design of the aluminum perimeter frame and dominating motor receive a host of refinements to create a more compact and mass-centralized chassis propelled by more usable power than ever. Headlining the technological charge, the KX450F features an all new Launch Control Mode, which is tuned to maximize traction out of the starting gate. This is accomplished without sacrificing any of the mid-range grunt or straight-line speed that made the KX450F famous. 2012 KX450F riders can easily activate the new Launch Control mode a key feature never before seen on a production motocross bike. The push-button system is activated by a touch of the switch on the left handlebar, and optimizes off-the-line acceleration by altering ignition timing in first and second gears to help maximize grip and reduce the chance of excessive wheelspin. Shifting into third gear automatically deactivates Launch Control Mode and returns the ignition timing to the parameters of the installed ignition map. The Launch Control s effectiveness is further enhanced by a chassis designed to maximize suspension performance and rear wheel traction. No other production motocrosser offers a higher degree of adjustability to the rider interface or engine character than the new 2012 KX450F. With a choice of four different handlebar positions, two footpeg positions, and virtually unlimited ignition mapping capabilities thanks to its advanced Digital Fuel Injection (DFI®) system the KX450F is uniquely able to adapt to changing track and surface conditions and meet the needs of a surprisingly wide range of riders. The DFI system comes with pre-programmed ignition maps, but new for 2012, these maps are interchangeable without the use of a laptop computer or other separate electronic devices. Maps can quickly and easily be changed between three settings standard, hard (conditions) and soft (conditions) by swapping the DFI
