2019 Yamaha YZ450F w/ 100hrs(FRESH REBUILD)

Conquer Dirt

After a laundry list of significant upgrades in 2018, the YZ450F gets refined for 2019 with optimized suspension settings to further enhance its on-track capability. With highlights including the wireless Power Tuner app, electric start, launch control, a potent fuel-injected four-stroke engine and a race-ready chassis, the ultimate motocrosser is ready to take you straight from the showroom floor to the podium.
 

POWER TUNER APP

The groundbreaking Power Tuner app makes it easy to modify fuel mapping directly from your Smartphone based on track conditions, track maintenance intervals and share settings with teammates or friends. Easy to operate and free to download, the Power Tuner app uses onboard Wi-Fi to communicate with the bike's CCU and allows you to tune like never before.
