The 450SR’s exquisite styling was meticulously perfected through extensive aerodynamic wind tunnel testing, which saw more than twenty design optimisations assessed over thirty hours of aero simulations.

GP racing-derived aerodynamic winglets enhance stability by providing 1.6 times downforce at higher speeds.

The 450SR is not just a standard commuter motorcycle with a striking fairing kit bolted on; it’s a performance-orientated motorcycle to the core. The high-strength, lightweight chromium-molybdenum alloy steel frame weighs less than 11kg, offering superior stability and comfort with agile handling characteristics.

The 450SR now features a sophisticated Traction Control System (same as 450SR S) developed by BOSCH - A key selling feature that isn’t common in this segment. This advanced system actively prevents rear wheel slip, enhancing stability and providing riders with greater confidence in a variety of conditions. This addition reinforces the 450SR’s reputation as one of the LAMS category's safest and most confidence-inspiring options.

A redesigned throttle assembly with a shorter stroke has been introduced, enabling quicker action and more responsive control. This improvement ensures an engaging and dynamic connection between the rider and the bike, which is ideal for spirited riding.

The machine also sports a lightweight swingarm and high-strength aluminium alloy wheels (front 110/70R17 & rear 150/60R17) with a unique 6-spoke design.

Combining slightly higher footrest positioning and lower clip-on handlebars compared to the 300SR results in a sportier riding position but not too aggressive to be detrimental for daily street riding.

The revised rider triangle allows the rider to efficiently ‘tuck in’ behind the fairing and screen with their elbows and knees integrating with the fuel tank.

The sports-oriented front and rear suspension deliver exceptional stability and controllability.

Up front, the 450SR is equipped with inverted front forks. Unlike the conventional front forks found on many competitors, inverted forks are lighter and stronger, offering superior compression and rebound damping, and improved support (hold-up) under hard braking. Handling-wise, steering response and feedback to the rider is enhanced, resulting in less effort and greater confidence.

A rising-rate multi-link system (linkage) connects the rear shock instead of being bolted directly (non-link) to the swing arm providing improved bump absorption and greater control.
Track day enthusiasts will appreciate the 450SR’s ability to change between the standard road-shift pattern and the reverse GP-shift by simply changing the position of the linkage rod.

GP-Shift allows for slightly quicker upshifts and slower, more controlled downshifts with improved balance when cornering, especially when needing to shift while at lean on the track.

For controllable and track-worthy stopping power, the 450SR has been outfitted with a four-piston radially mounted Brembo M40 monobloc caliper with Ø32mm pistons matched with a single 320mm floating front brake disc. Rear braking duties are taken care of by a single-piston caliper paired with a 220mm disc.

A lightweight, one-piece BOSCH 9.1 Antilock Brake System (ABS) features advanced settings for a more natural braking feel and secure activation.

The 450SR is equipped with CFMOTO’s advanced T-Box system that enables smartphone connection via Bluetooth and the CFMOTO RIDE App*.

Through the CFMOTO RIDE App, the rider can access an array of features, including tracking lap times, ride history and statistics; remote vehicle status, including a fuel indicator; the ability to conduct over-the-air software updates; new security features, including movement sensors, vehicle location and even set up a virtual electric fence to alert you of vehicle movement or theft. A 5-inch TFT curved display has a wealth of information available at a glance via an easy-to-read layout, including a shift indicator for perfectly timed gear changes.
