COMFORT2024 Yamaha KODIAK 450

The Kodiak 450 offers a riding position with the same roomy feel as the larger Kodiak 700. With tall handlebars, a seat that is long and plush for improved rider comfort, and large textured floorboards, every aspect of the Kodiak 450 was designed to bring class-leading levels of refinement to the middleweight 4x4 ATV segment.

CAPABILITY2024 Yamaha KODIAK 450

The Ultramatic® transmission is specifically tuned to provide lowered cruising rpm for smooth, quiet operation, and features a gated shifter with park, dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive and reverse gear. Even the position of the gated shifter was carefully considered, being moved forward to provide a roomier rider area.

CONFIDENCE2024 Yamaha KODIAK 450

Yamaha ATVs feature marine-grade waterproof connectors for maximum weather-proofing, increased durability and improved serviceability.

  • Gear driven engine balancer shaft
    • Reduces engine vibration for improved rider comfort
  • 34 mm Mikuni throttle body fuel injection system with TPS & ISC
    • TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) is used to more precisely calculate the fuel injection quantity for optimum power, excellent throttle response & reduced fuel consumption
    • ISC (Idle Speed Control) helps ensure a steady idle even during warm up
    • Other fuel injection benefits include; choke-free starting, excellent fuel economy & reduced emissions
  • Throttle limiter
    • Easy to adjust, screw-type throttle limiter

    • High mounted design helps prevent water ingestion
    • Air box features a "no tools required" drain
  • Yamaha's industry leading Ultramatic® CVT (fully automatic) dual range transmission with reverse & downhill engine braking
    • Dual range, high - low transmission with reverse. Low range offers more "grunt" for towing or hauling heavy loads or when tackling technical terrain
    • CVT automatically selects the optimum transmission ratio, meaning you are always in the right "gear"
    • Ultramatic® design offers controllable, confidence inspiring downhill engine braking
    • Downhill engine braking also reduces brake wear & related servicing
    • Ultramatic® design utilizes a special centrifugal clutch which keeps constant tension on the V-belt, reducing belt wear since the belt does not slip as the clutches engage
    • High mounted belt cooling ducts help prevent water ingestion
    • V-belt housing has an easy access "no tools required" drain plug
    • Automotive style, gated, 5-postion shifter (high, low, neutral, reverse & park)
