The YFZ450 Special Edition is so hot, it comes with a GYTR™ front grab bar and heel guards plus orange/black paint with special graphics.
The lightest, most powerful ATV ever, winner of just about every magazine shootout, 2004/2006 GNCC and Quadcross Championships, 2005/2006 World Four-Stroke Champion and ATV Illustrated's 2007 Sport ATV of the Year (a tie with our own Raptor 700R).
Most powerful, industry-exclusive five-titanium-valve engine and 350-pound dry weight give the YFZ450 the best power-to-weight ratio of any ATV ever produced.
Ultra-compact, lightweight, high-tensile steel frame with fully adjustable suspension means YFZ450 is also the best-handling race-bred ATV ever produced.
The YFZ450 comes standard with pushbutton electric starting, a convenient flip-type parking brake and suspension calibrated for performance.
