KEY FEATURES

TOP FEATURES

Powerful 450cc Four-Stroke Engine

The light, compact and high revving 450cc engine delivers power across the entire rev range. ECU settings are tailored to suit the specific needs of trail riding and enduro competition.

Three-Level Traction Control

Three-level Traction Control, lap timer, data logging and helpful setup guides are enabled through Yamaha's groundbreaking next-generation Power Tuner App.

Aluminum Bilateral Beam Frame

A aluminum bilateral beam frame with WR450F-specific engine mounts provides the right combination of strength and flex for the perfect balance of straight-line stability and cornering performance. The result is a superb-handling machine with light feel, high agility and plenty of traction, allowing the rider to tackle tight, technical courses with supreme confidence.

Class-Leading Suspension

The industry-leading, fully adjustable KYB® coil spring-type fork with speed-sensitive damping provides exceptional balance between handling and bump absorption, and now features a hand-operated compression clicker for toolless adjustments. The linkage-type rear suspension uses a KYB® shock with specially-tuned damping characteristics to match the WR450F chassis. The suspension contributes to a low center of gravity for excellent cornering performance and rider comfort in technical sections.

High Performance Braking System

Compact front and rear brake calipers work with aggressive pad compounds and lightweight discs to provide exceptional braking power and control, efficiently dissipate heat and reduce unsprung weight.

Slim Body & Rider-Friendly Ergos

A slim, flat and compact body makes rider movement easy for enhanced control, including rounded seat edges and narrow shrouds. The rider triangle offers generous legroom between the seat and foot pegs for high levels of rider comfort.

ENGINE

High Performance 450cc Four-Stroke Engine

The 450cc liquid-cooled DOHC four-stroke engine is light, compact and features strong pulling power across the entire rev range. A high rev limit assists over-rev, further boosting the WR450F's broad power character. Additionally, ECU settings are tailored to suit the specific needs of trail riding and enduro competition.

Three-Level Traction Control System

A Traction Control System enabled through Yamaha's Power Tuner App communicates wheel slip to the ECU, tuning the engine to maintain ideal rear wheel traction. Three levels can be selected: HIGH, LOW or OFF.

Advanced Fuel Injection

The engine breathes through a 44mm MikuniÂ® throttle body fed by a high-pressure electric pump to ensure optimum fuel atomization and power for a wide range of altitudes, weather and riding conditions.

Compact Lightweight Clutch

The disc spring clutch integrates primary gear and basket into a single steel unit. The result is a compact, lightweight and durable assembly that yields smooth engagement and excellent feel.

Wide-Ratio Five-Speed Transmission

The WR450F's wide-ratio 5-speed transmission provides the right gear for any off-road situation, from tight technical sections to open fields and fire roads. The all-new tri-shaft transmission layout vertically stacks the transmission shafts, raising the center shaft and forming a triangle between the crank, drive shaft and main shaft for a lighter, more compact transmission.

Electric Starter System

The WR450F features a compact electric starter system to minimize restart delays in competition and add convenience everywhere else. Powered by a high-capacity and lightweight four-cell lithium-ion battery, the system adds consistent performance and minimal weight.

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

Aluminum Bilateral Beam Frame

Striking the perfect balance of precise cornering performance and handling stability, the aluminum bilateral beam frame consists of more than 10 different aluminum components welded together with WR450F-specific engine mounts. The result is a light feel, great bump absorption and high traction, allowing the rider to enter corners with confidence and many line choices.

Class-Leading Suspension

The industry-leading, fully adjustable KYB® coil spring-type fork with speed-sensitive damping provides exceptional balance between handling and bump absorption, and now features a new hand operated compression clicker for toolless adjustments. The linkage-type rear suspension uses a KYB® shock with specially-tuned damping characteristics to match the WR450F chassis. Suspension settings contribute to a lower center of gravity for superb cornering performance and rider comfort in technical sections.

Slimmer Body & Improved Ergos

A slim, compact and flat body eases rider movement for improved control, including more seamless, rounded seat edges, revised side covers and narrow front shrouds. The rider triangle provides increased legroom between the seat and foot pegs for enhanced rider comfort.

High Performance Braking System

A large 270mm front brake disc and 240mm rear are coupled with high performance Nissin caliper and aggressive pad material to provide exceptional stopping power and control.

Enduro Wheel/Tire Combo

The WR450F's lightweight 18-inch rear wheel comes laced with a three-cross-spoke pattern for improved impact absorption and rider feel. Wheels feature Excel® rims and come wrapped in Dunlop® Geomax MX33 tires for an ideal balance of traction and durability.
