The 2012 Yamaha YFZ450 is one of the nifty choices a discerning rider could make for pretty much any purpose involving the absence of a road. Loaded with packs of power, torque and top-spec features, this ATV is the basis upon which the pro-racing machines have been developed on and will feel at home on the motocross track, in the woods or across sand dunes.

This ATV comes with a smooth ratchet-type shifter and heavy-duty clutch for dependable operation and being able to handle quite a lot of abuse. The adjustable suspensions provide easy setup for different riders and a multitude of terrain types and the wide-spaced wheels ensure better stability in turns. The aluminium-steel chassis offers better mass centralization and good ground clearance, with the disc brakes providing dependable stopping force in case you got carried away by how nice this beast feels.

And if you feel like adding to it, the 2012 Yamaha YFZ450 can get a ton of GYTR accessories for both aesthetic and functional purpose.
