Segment: Enduro/Offroad
Production years: 2005, 2006
Not only does the 2005 YZ450F 50th Anniversary share all the technological upgrades with its base version, but it also brings forth a special livery. Like all the other anniversary models in the generation, the 2005 YZ450F 50th Anniversary comes with a striking yellow livery with factory-like black and white accents.
Even though some might mistake it for a Suzuki in the heat of the dirt track battle, this machine is all Yamaha technology at its best. 2005 brings a new frame and swingarm, a thoroughly revised engine and a noticeable better performance in handling and power delivery.
