450cc Unicam® engine

Built to win

450cc Unicam® engine

The Unicam® cylinder head offers a compact, lightweight design with a narrow valve angle, which improves combustion chamber efficiency, increases compression ratio, and lowers the center of gravity.

Built to win

Light narrow frame

Experience faster cornering with the lightweight, superior chassis design, which maintains finely tuned lateral rigidity.

Built to win

Eight-plate clutch assembly

The eight-plate clutch design delivers 85% less slip at peak horsepower and 27% more torque transmission than a seven-plate clutch. Due to the hydraulic actuation and super-strong spring lockup, it maintains a light clutch-lever pull.

Built to win

Single-muffler exhaust

The enhanced muffler features a reinforced outer shell and revamped inner pipe construction, all while maintaining its original weight for a perfect balance of strength and performance.

Roost-ruling performance

Sealed airbox and filter

Sealed airbox and filter

We've maximized torque output with a unique airbox shape and filter design. The filter is easily accessible and features a gasket-less design for quicker and easier cleaning and servicing.

HRC launch control

HRC launch control

Get a competitive edge with this bike's unique ECU program. Select the mode, open the throttle, and release the clutch to dominate from the start with its holeshot-seeking design.

Central-port cylinder head

Central-port cylinder head

The 2025 model features an oval-shaped centralized exhaust port, which, along with the single-muffler exhaust, boosts power from 5000 rpm up and increases exhaust efficiency.
