YAMAHA WR450F (2013-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Yamaha WR450F was an off-road motorcycle produced by Yamaha in 1998. The bike was part of the WR series in Yamaha's range and was manufactured over several generations with several performance and technical improvements.

In 2013, Yamaha released the WR450F off-road motorcycle, an off-road machine part of the fifth generation. The bike produced between 2012 and 2015 featured several modifications that enhanced performance and handling.

The bike came from the factory with standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a small cowl with an integrated headlight, fork covers, an engine guard, a single seat, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels.

In addition, the 2013 model benefited from the 2012 modifications, including a new aluminum frame that improved handling and a new fuel injection system that offered excellent throttle response and smooth performance.

The 2013 Yamaha WR450F took its muscles from a 449cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine with a fuel injection system, boasting 58 hp on tap at 9,000 rpm and 49 Nm (36 lb-ft) torque at 7,500 rpm.

The wire-spoke wheels were fitted with a four-piston caliper and a 250 mm disc on the front, while the rear wheel had a 245 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper, offering solid and reliable stopping power.

The bike featured a revised suspension system comprising a 48 mm upside-down telescopic fork on the front and a link-type suspension with a single shock absorber on the rear.
