The new YAMAHA WR450F “Replica” Kit is born

Twelve months were enough high-performance WR450F and to the Miglio Racing Team, officially supported by Yamaha, to become protagonists of the Italian Championships. A year spent together with drivers Fabio Mossini and Andrea Beconi to hone and perfect the 450cc enduro Iwata has demonstrated its enormous competitiveness in all the scheduled races. No distortions, no revolutions compared to the standard model, but just careful attention lightening and setting work, seasoned by customization of delivery via the strategic Power Tuner. That was enough to make the WR450F the perfect weapon for slings and special trials on the challenging Italian tracks faced.

It is precisely from this significant experience gained in the field that Yamaha has set out to give all enduro riders a "race ready" version properly vitaminized and made even more special thanks to the numerous details that give it a racing look: this is how the new WR450F “Replica” kit. With dedicated graphics that emphasize its dynamism thanks to the traditional checkered logo, trademark of the Japanese brand, the three tuning fork enduro is characterized by a special saddle made of two different types of non-slip material to offer more grip to the rider, when and where needed. THE white handguards they complete the line and protect from impacts and stones.

Enduro competitions, as we know, are not just about victories and smiles. Often, especially in the most difficult situations, slips or collisions with rocks happen. To defend yourself from these contacts the new WR450F “Replica” kit has been accessorised with the essential radiator guards made to measure and with a new eye made of plastic material, lighter and above all deformable in the event of an impact without compromising the passage of the chain. Traction is ensured by Metzeler Six Days tires which guarantee perfect grip in every situation.

Once in the saddle you immediately feel a great sense of lightness and slenderness, due to the new aluminum tank, the same used by the Miglio Racing Team, which makes the WR450F “thinner” between the legs, characterizing it as a product absolutely Factory. Factory, in the world of competitions, also means "tailored to the rider", because the objective of each team is, first and foremost, to "tailor" the bike to the needs of its rider. In the case of new WR450F “Replica” kit the task is accomplished by the essentials Power Tuner, a real Egg of Columbus, also used profitably by the Miglio Racing Team itself between one Special Stage and another, which allows you to with just a few gestures customize the mapping of the engine as well redesign power delivery, adding or removing “badness” as needed.

Finally the pigtail, slim and light, but not hairpiece, made exclusive by carbon license plate holder, which also works as reinforcement for the mudguard. If the day is one of those particularly muddy ones, you will no longer have to worry about looking over your shoulder, but only be focused on how to face the next obstacle with the throttle wide open.
