Inspired by the reigning Motocross & Supercross champion YZ450F raced by the Monster Energy® Star Yamaha Racing team, the Monster Energy® Yamaha Racing Edition features a striking color and graphics package that stands out at the track or on the trail.
A completely redesigned aluminum bilateral beam frame provides just the right amount of strength and flex for the perfect balance of stability and cornering performance. The result is a better handling machine with lighter feel, more agility and increased traction allowing the rider to enter corners with greater confidence and more line choices.
A large 270mm front brake rotor is coupled with a Nissin caliper to provide excellent braking performance. Out back, rear brake feel is improved by reducing the rigidity of the brake hose providing a wider range of control at the pedal.
