The 2008 MY Husqvarna SM 450 R has a more performance-oriented front suspension package, as opposed to its previous embodiment, represented by a 50mm Marzocchi upside-down telescopic hydraulic fork, with a more generous, 250 mm of wheel travel. In addition, the rear suspension unit has a "soft damp" function, as well as a more generous wheel travel of 290 mm, which not only make for a more plush ride, but also an agiler one and increases the difficulty of off-road tracks it can successfully tackle.
At its heart lies a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, 449cc, single cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission.
