CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

• The YFZ450R SE's motocross-ready chassis is built for competition straight out of the box.
• Professional-caliber frame is designed from lightweight, weldless aluminum with a tension-steel bottom frame.
• Steel frame member under the engine provides strength and lets the engine sit lower for enhanced mass centralization.
• The aluminum frame section is bolted together, rather than welded, for maximum durability.
• Narrow A-arm mounting points increase A-arm length and reduce changes in camber as the suspension travels .
• Fully adjustable front KYB® shocks are longer for increased stroke, superb bump absorption and excellent bottoming resistance.
• Kashima coated front shocks offer smooth operation, while the 9.8 inches of wheel travel mean it's ready for the track.

• Matched to KYB® rear shock, competition-tested rear swingarm is crafted of strong, gravity-fed aluminum.
• High performance dual hydraulic front discs and wave-style hydraulic rear disc offer competition-level braking power.
• Wheels are set motocross-spec wide, near the allowable maximum of 50 inches, for great cornering speed.
• Wheels are designed with the inner lip rolled in to increase rigidity, allowing for a reduction in weight while maintaining strength.
• At 21 inches up front and 20 inches in the rear, large Maxxis® tires provide excellent handling and enhanced ground clearance.
