Yamaha launches the YFZ 450X quad model.

Yamaha is planning to launch new quad models in 2010, including the new YFZ 450X. This is the most powerful quad intended to be used on technical and forest routes. The vehicle presents a chassis made by steel and aluminum alloy, gas injection and optimized suspension. It has a powerful 449cc engine with liquid cooling, single cylinder, five valves, DOHC and a technology designed for performance quads. This model was built to supplement the YFZ 450R predecessor, which had a huge success in United States. Compared with this, the new model is narrow and light and has a better suspension. The vehicle has a good quality and reliability. Yamaha will launch in 2019 at least 17 models, and some of them are the Grizzly with power steering, Raptor and Wolverine. New colors and graphics will be introduced and the Grizzly 700 FI EPS model will have a special edition in white with aluminum rims. Wolverine 700 will be launched only in 2011 and we expect it to be a real adversary for Can-Am Renegade 800.
