Exclusive new Yamaha Motocross Team Replica

To celebrate David Philippaerts’ MX1 World Championship achieved on Yamaha Monster YZ450F, the manufacturer will be releasing a very limited number of 2009 specification Team Replica machines.

Developed in co-operation with Yamaha Racing and the Yamaha Monster Motocross Team, the exclusive new YZ450F Yamaha Motocross Team Replica is based on the 2009 production bike. A limited supply will be built solely for the European market, and they will be equipped with a range of special chassis parts that are the same as those fitted to Yamaha’s MX1 factory racing bikes. With its special black-coloured bodywork and trick carbon fibre components, this new addition to the Yamaha YZ line-up has a truly exclusive look and a class-leading specification.
