Its engine comes straight from the World Supercross Championship-winning KX450F, with the addition of digital fuel injection and a reverse gear for backing out of tight situations. The all new aluminum frame is both lightweight and rigid, plus it's designed for superb handling and to allow the KFX450R to maximize traction without wasted wheelspin. Race-ready from the outset, the KFX450R needs no extensive, or expensive modifications to put it ahead of the pack. Every component has been chosen to maximize performance on the track or in the bush and to minimise the fuss of getting there. The KFX 450R uses a powerplant based on Kawasaki's highly acclaimed KX450F motocross engine. With the addition of an efficient and highly responsive 32 bit digital fuel injection system, the KFX450R's engine produces more torque in the low and medium rpm ranges for outstanding hole shot acceleration. Fuel injection helps ensure that the engine's performance remain consistent, while four-stroke torque helps keep the wheels hooked up for improved handling and higher corner speeds. Other race ready features include a lightweight titanium exhaust header pipe and a durable forged piston. The race-ready KFX450R is now available from your local Kawasaki dealer.
