Take A Look Inside ELI TOMAC’S STAR RACING YAMAHA YZ450F

Eli Tomac’s move from Kawasaki to Star Racing Yamaha was one of the biggest talking points of 2021. Everyone wondered, could the 2020 Supercross Champion and 3-time 450 National Champion become even faster on the Yamaha? Or was it a risk to join the Yamaha team after the success he had with Kawasaki? Well, after convincingly winning his first ever 450 Main Event on Saturday at Anaheim 2 with his new team and extending his points lead to 6-points over Chase Sexton, it’s safe to say that Eli didn’t make a bad decision.

We met up with Tomac’s mechanic Josh Ellingson to go over the top secret details of Eli Tomac’s race bike. His YZ450F features a Rekluse clutch, custom footpegs, KYB hybrid spring/air forks, a titanium brake tip, custom FMF muffler guard, 10-millimeter back foot peg position, Dunlop spec tires, shaved brake housing, auxiliary start button, and much more!
