Frequently asked
What chain size does a Yamaha WR450 F-W,X,Y use?
GarageDex's manufacturer-catalogue data shows the 2007-2009 Yamaha WR450 F-W,X,Y uses a 520 chain with 13-tooth front and 50-tooth rear sprockets from the factory. (114 links)
What is the stock gearing on a Yamaha WR450 F-W,X,Y?
13-tooth front and 50-tooth rear from the factory, part numbers front JTF565SC, rear JTR251SC.
What changes if I go +2 teeth on the rear sprocket?
Going up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket (or down 1-2 on the front) lowers the gearing: quicker acceleration off the line, but a lower top speed, and the chain usually needs to be 1-2 links longer to keep enough wrap on the front sprocket - a shop or the sprocket's fitment chart will confirm the exact link count for that combination. This is a generic mechanical rule, not a claim about this specific model's aftermarket options.
How many links does a Yamaha WR450 F-W,X,Y chain have?
114 links at stock length and gearing, per the manufacturer catalogue.
