One of the greatest things about the 2013 Yamaha YFZ450 is that this motocross ATV offers the performance of a 450cc-class machine for the price of the casual 400cc beast. Retailing for prices starting at $6,899 (€5,335), the plethora of GYTR accessories can turn it into a top-notch racing menace.
The 2013 model has received some engine mapping tweaks, allowing it to deliver more grit in the mid-range, while boasting the same zero-compromise, lag-free acceleration in the upper revs. The lighter feel of the throttle makes riding the 2013 Yamaha YFZ450 for a whole day less tiresome, and that means more fun.
You get a heavy-duty clutch for the ratchet-type 5-speed transmission, while the dry-sump architecture places the oil tank in front of the engine for better cooling. An electric start provides enhanced convenience, while the easy-access airbox can be serviced with no tools. The 2013 Yamaha YFZ450 is available in either black metallic of white with graphics kit.
