Yamaha WR450F 2012

The new WR 450F is a genuine racing enduro that is technically and innovatively at the forefront. A Kayaba chassis that is unparalleled in series production, top brakes. A slightly larger tag would be fine and a little more "carburettor feeling" in the rev range. But the best thing is the possibilities offered by the uncomplicated Powertuner.

The 701 Supermoto is the right vehicle for asphalt surfers who regard a motorbike as a toy without wanting to forego suitability for everyday use. The ABS also meets sporting demands, can be switched off or operated in Supermoto mode using a "dongle" from the accessories. The ride-by-wire offers three different riding modes to choose from, which can also only be changed while riding with an extra. This brings us to the downer in the Austro-Swedish melange: we would have liked to see some extras in the standard equipment. One of these is the set of stickers for the many white surfaces on the fairing.
