Key Features:
- The Wolverine 450 4x4 combines features like
4WD and a fully automatic transmission with
light weight, sport-tuned adjustable suspension.
The result is a highly functional machine that’s
a blast to ride.
- The Wolverine 450 4x4 Special Edition: Black as
night with red trim and shock springs, this
wicked-looking cross-over takes no prisoners.
- A liquid-cooled 450 class single feeding power
through a full-auto constantly variable
transmission – the Wolverine 450 is a great
explorer.
- A fully automatic transmission and Yamaha
On-Command® gear selector system means switching
from 2WD to 4WD is as simple as jabbing the
handlebar-mounted button.
- Raptor-inspired styling includes aggressive
bodywork with integrated floorboards, a
comfortable sport seat and an integrated rear
rack.
- Sport-tuned suspension, radial sport tires and
light weight add up to an excellent-handling
ATV.
- Pushbutton electric starting for quick easy
starts in nearly any condition.
Engine:
- Powerful 421cc liquid-cooled, SOHC
four-stroke single is torquey, revvable,
smooth-running and extremely reliable.
- A semi-oval slide 33mm BSR Mikuni carburetor and
high-output DC-CDI ignition deliver great
throttle response and performance at all rpm.
- Fully automatic transmission is extremely rugged
and reliable with a constant belt-tensioning
system, which provides confident downhill engine
braking.
- A large-capacity aluminum radiator provides
maximum cooling efficiency and is positioned
high in frame for optimal protection.
- Easy-access, tool-free air filter simplifies
that task.
- An automatic cam chain tensioner reduces
maintenance requirements.
Chassis/Suspension:
- Light, high-tensile steel frame provides a
strong foundation for double-wishbone front and
single-shock rear long-travel suspension systems
for a sporty yet comfortable ride.
- Five-way preload-adjustable suspension front and
rear lets the Wolverine 450 be dialed in just
right for varying loads and conditions.
- A dry weight under 516 pounds means the
Wolverine 450 runs right with the big sport
dogs.
- Low-maintenance shaft drives provide
near-bulletproof strength and reliability.
- Front and rear hydraulic disc brakes provide
plenty of stopping power.
- 23x8-12 radial sport tires up great traction and
quick, light handling.
- Aluminum wheels mean low unsprung weight for
great suspension action and overall performance.
- Full skid plates provide great undercarriage
protection.
Additional Features:
- A digital dash meter keeps track of speed and
other essentials.
- An underseat storage compartment and integrated
rear cargo rack make it easy to bring the things
you need.
