KEY FEATURES


KAWASAKI’S FIRST FUEL-INJECTED MOTOCROSS ENGINE
For ’09 the KX450F takes its next evolutionary step and switches to fuel injection. While enjoying fuel injection’s inherent benefits, the new engine was designed to retain the character of its predecessor. The 449 cm3 liquid-cooled, 4-stroke Single continues to deliver hard-hitting power from low- through high-rpm. The broad powerband and responsive throttle offer a broad spread of torquey response that enables racers to get on
the gas and go even from down low. With fuel injection, the KX450F’s lag-free acceleration, especially after landing jumps, is better than ever. Increased traction at low-mid speeds means better drive out of corners for quicker corner exits. A number of other changes refine performance, ensuring the smooth, linear response of the ’08 model was maintained.

FACTORY-STYLE CHASSIS COMPONENTS AND TUNING
The KX450F’s slim aluminium perimeter frame is a lightweight construction composed of forged, extruded and cast parts. Chassis balance and settings were all set to suit raceexperienced riders. The centre of gravity and key dimensions (swingarm pivot, output sprocket and rear axle locations) were chosen so that the rear tyre would drive the bike forward (instead of causing it to squat). For ’09 revisions to the frame and suspension components were designed to offer a slimmer package, lighter handling, and increased rear wheel traction.
