2017 Yamaha YFZ450R, YOUR PODIUM AWAITSThe YFZ450R is the ultimate moto-dominating, podium-topping pure sport ATV package.Additional FeaturesLIGHT THROTTLE ACTION: The throttle lever requires low effort for less fatigue during long motos.COMPACT LED INDICATORS: 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 an LED display.Chassis / SuspensionRACE-READY ERGONOMICS: The body configuration allows more room for the racer to move around during the moto. The seat is narrow in the front, yet wide and padded in the rear to reduce fatigue.DURABLE, RIGID WHEELS: The wheels have been designed with the inner lip rolled in. This increases the rigidity, allowing a reduction in weight while maintaining strength.WIDE TRACKS AND MAXXIS® TIRES: Wheels are set motocross-spec wide, near the maximum allowable 50 inches, for great cornering speed. Maxxis® tires help provide excellent handling and control. At 20 inches in the rear and 21 inches in the front, they provide better ground clearance than the competition.ADJUSTABLE HANDLEBAR: Large diameter, tapered handlebar reduces vibration and are mounted on 4-way clamps for exceptional adjustability. The two sets of holes in the handlebar crown and the eccentric clamps allow a rider to choose the standard setting, 10mm or 20mm forward, or 10mm back.WIDE FOOTPEGS: Foot pegs are a generous 2.6 inches wide, something riders will appreciate every time they want to get up on the pegs.ADVANCED FRAME: 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 allows the engine to sit lower overall for excellent mass centralization for unmatched handling. The aluminum frame is bolted together, rather than welded, for maximum durability.LONG A-ARM SUSPENSION: The front frame is as narrow as possible at the A-arm mounting points. This increases the A-arm length and reduces changes in camber as the suspension travels through its full range of motion.HIGH-PERFORMANCE SHOCKS: The front KYB® shocks are longer for increased stroke with superb bump absorption and excellent anti-bottoming characteristics, and they have Kashima coating for smooth operation. 9.8 inches of wheel travel means this racer is up to even the most challenging tracks.SWINGARM REAR SUSPENSION: The rear swingarm is crafted of strong, gravity-fed aluminum, and is matched to a fully adjustable 46mm KYB® piggyback shock for excellent handling. Rear wheel travel is 11.0 inches for comfort even on tough terrain.
