These features enable riders to quickly adjust power delivery and traction for riding conditions and preference. The KX450X provides advanced technology designed to inspire confidence.
• CHOOSE YOUR PREFERENCE: The KX™450X motorcycle features Power Mode Selection, which allows riders to switch between 2 power modes quickly and easily.

By using the traction button (T) on the left handlebar, riders can quickly and easily select from 2 levels (Weak or Strong) of traction control to suit riding conditions and preference. Riders may also elect to turn the system off.
• POWER FROM THE START: A factory-style launch control system helps put the KX™450X motorcycle’s power to the ground for maximum acceleration. By pushing the Mode and Traction buttons simultaneously, riders activate the launch control system which is designed to deliver efficient race starts in low-traction conditions, making the holeshot yours for the taking.

The app also provides KX™ FI Calibration to fine-tune fueling and ignition timing, engine monitoring for checking engine metrics, and a maintenance log for recording memo-style logs —plus many more useful functions.
• LIGHT PULL & SELF-ADJUSTING: A coned disc-spring hydraulic clutch offers light clutch pull and a wide engagement range. Compared to a conventional clutch, the hydraulic clutch offers more direct feel and lighter lever actuation, while large diameter plates provide enhanced fade resistance.

The premium system offers confident controllability of the brakes, contributing to precise corner entry.
• POWER TO THE GROUND: The KX™450X motorcycle is built to meet the tough demands of cross-country racing. Cross-country wheels (21-in front/18-in rear) are paired with specific Dunlop Geomax AT81 tires developed for GNCC racing.
• LIGHTWEIGHT & NIMBLE: A lightweight aluminum perimeter frame delivers a high level of both light, nimble handling and a composed character. Optimized rigidity balance contributes to precise front-end feel that translates to sharp cornering performance in a wide range of conditions.

• OPTIMIZED FOR CROSS-COUNTRY: A high-performance 49mm inverted Showa coil-spring fork comes directly from the KX™450 motorcycle. Front spring rates and damping settings tuned for cross-country riding offer reassuring feedback, especially when riding on challenging trails.
• ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS: The Uni-Trak® rear suspension system features a Showa shock with adjustable dual-range (high- and low-speed) compression damping, adjustable rebound damping, and adjustable preload. The linkage system mounts the suspension arm below the swingarm, allowing a long rear suspension stroke for precise tuning. As a result, riders can optimize damping and rear-wheel traction to suit conditions and personal preference.
