KX450F

Features 

The holeshot advantage: Launch Control Mode

The 2012 KX450F features a launch control system similar to that on our factory racers. With the simple press of a button, riders can activate a separate engine map designed to ensure efficient race starts in slippery conditions.

Hard-hitting fuel-injected power

Fuel-injected 449 cm³ liquid-cooled, 4-stroke Single delivers 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.

Easy engine tuning: DFI Setting Data Selection (3 map choices)

Initial settings for the three maps are: Standard, Hard (conditions) and Soft (conditions). Using provided DFI couplers, riders are able to easily switch between the three maps to suit riding conditions. Plugging in each of the 4-pin couplers activates the corresponding engine map.
Each of the three maps can be reprogrammed using the optional KX FI Calibration Kit.

Accessories 

KX F.I. CALIBRATION KIT

The optional KX FI Calibration Kit allows adjustment of engine characteristics by using one of the pre-set maps included in the software or by adjusting the map to suit rider preference. In addition to the kit, lead (26011-0246), a computer and 12 V battery are also required.
Additional plugs are available to quickly change pre-set engine mappings (260110728 black, 260110748 white)
