Yamaha YZ450F 2014

Yamaha YZ450F 2014

In the 1000PS Hardenduro Test 2018, our testers were completely impressed by the Yamaha models. This also applies to the Yamaha YZ 450 F. Yamaha offers a wide range of accessories for the enduro, with which the YZ 450 F can be tuned to meet any requirements. In addition, there is the Tuning App, with which the YZ 450 F can be adjusted via smartphone. But the Yamaha is also convincing without subsequent tuning. The engine and chassis have good responsiveness and the Nissin brakes also impress with their usual quality.
