Stills, Reviews, Specifications of YAMAHA YZ450F


2008 Yamaha YZ450F

The best just keeps getting better. The bike that started the 4-stroke revolution benefits from a host of engine and chassis improvements for 2008. The intake tract has been revised, as have the cams, header pipe and stylish new "shorty" type muffler. Even the fame has gone under the microscope and now features a shorter steering head for better balanced handling and reduced weight. The bike that started the trend just keeps on getting better.Our most powerful, most flickable 450 ever. The bike that started the four stroke revolution keeps moving forward with chassis and engine refinements that ensure the five titanium valved 2008 Yamaha YZ450F remains at the head of the open class pack.
