WR 450F

2024 Yamaha WR450F
All-New Aluminum Bilateral Beam Frame
A redesigned aluminum bilateral beam frame with a 15mm lower head pipe joint allows the frame rail and tension pipe to sit lower, and along with WR450F-specific front engine mounts, provide just the right amount of strength and flex for the perfect balance of straight-line stability and cornering performance. With a lower center of gravity, the WR450F is a better handling machine with lighter feel, more agility and increased traction for tackling tight, technical trail sections with greater 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 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. New settings also result in a 10mm lower seat height than the YZ450F and lower 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. A new YZ450F-spec rear brake system sheds further weight.
