“Since its inception, both Aussies and Kiwis have been instrumental in the development of this model – so you can say that the WR450F is a machine created for our unique conditions,” explains Matthew Ferry, National Sales and Marketing Manager. “Now it is gratifying to see the factory recognise the importance of this model for our market with the release of the limited Aussie Edition”

Yamaha has specifically designed the WR450F Aussie Edition for Australia, with significant input from leading Australian enduro racer, Josh Green.

With just 400 units available, each model is stamped with a unique collectors unit. Owners will also receive a special, personalised plaque, further enhancing the collector-status of this model.

Other features of the WR450F Aussie Edition include custom anodised aluminium radiator guards and bashplate, both developed by Force Accessories, as well as Barkbusters handguards and an Akrapovic muffler. Both Force and Barkbusters are Australian companies.

In addition to the ‘Aussie Edition’ features, the 2021 Yamaha WR450F has been significantly overhauled with components borrowed from the 2020 YZ450F motocross machine. Read all about those changes HERE.

The 2021 Yamaha WR450 Aussie Edition is priced at $17,099 ride away, and includes 12 months registration. It is due on dealer floors in December 2020.
