    Kawasaki KFX450 Spy Photos

    ATVriders.com has obtained some spy photos of the new 2007 Kawasaki KFX450 Sport ATV, and we are excited to share these photos with our visitors. Just as we originally anticipated the new KFX450 appears to designed as high performance Sport ATV with the trail riders and cross country racers in mind.

    These few photos reveal a few features not originally mentioned in the release sent out by Kawasaki over a month ago. By zooming in on the photos, I was able to discover that the rear wheels have reinforcing rings on the inside, and the rear rotor is drilled and is not your standard round rotor. Also, I noticed the front end of the frame is raked up slightly, which improves handling when riding through the woods at speed. Finally, it appears that the black front and rear outer fenders are easily removable.

    I am sure with a closer inspection of these photos that more features will be revealed, so have fun and be sure to share what you find.

    Austin, if look carefully you will see the tires are completely clean while coming off the truck, and dirty once in front of the truck, so they were unloading it, which is why it was clean.

    Looks nice. I like how you have the Full-fender and low profile fender options for both the front and rear.

    The subframe doesn't look quite up to snuff, and I don't like the gusseting on the lower front of the frame (by the water bottle).

    But, it is a test prototype.. so all that stuff is most likely prototype welded stuff to test changes, and not what's going to be on the final production line.

    Good to see they are using a honda style 4-bolt carrier.

    That's because it's all aluminum. Even though it looks beefy, it's probably a good bit lighter than a Honda, Yamaha, or Suzuki steel frame chasis.
