Introduction
All new for 2014, the YZ450F takes full profit of the advanced concept behind the rear-slanting engine layout and the new snaking exhaust pipe flow from the back of the cylinder head; attributes that distance the YZ-F family from the competition. This powerplant now boasts a controllable and greater - more usable - character. The larger valves form a part in the revaluated performance while a new ECU and gear ratios mean plenty of easy-to-play-with torque in the first gears with a strong push through the powerband from third gear up. Overhauled intake and exhaust ports, cam profiles and crank ratios makes the YZ450F the most tractable and invigorating ride yet.
To aid further benefits of mass centralisation, a revised 250 class bilateral beam chassis houses the engine, deeper location of the increased capacity fuel tank, central placement of the fuel injection components such as the engine ECU and a new wire harness. The innovative exhaust curvature extends length and permits an excellent pulse effect and power development.
