Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha WR450F 2016

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Yamaha YZ450F 2016

The engine of the YZ450F is powerful and somewhat aggressive, but can be optimised via mappings. What is very noticeable about the YZ450F is the strong intake noise from the engine, but you quickly get used to it. The handling is also very good and the gears are easy to shift. Unlike the 250, the YZ450F GYTR is a little lighter and nicer to ride than the standard 450. The chassis responds well, works very well and is very easy to handle. This makes it suitable for the hobby rider.

Powerful engine

adjustable mappings

solid chassis

good handling

pleasant gearshifting

Engine a little aggressive in the lower range
