This shot of the 2010 Yamaha YZ450F is getting a lot of attention and rightly so. We can't remember having seen any reversed cylinder machines sold to the public since the 1990 Yamaha TZ250A privateer road-racer. Beyond the reversed single-cylinder, the new YZ450F looks to be an entirely new bike, with a slew of refinements including front and rear suspension, rear frame, new seat and we're guessing a completely revised chassis as well. While we think the Yamaha looks pretty cool and will be fast in the dirt, we're holding out for a supermoto version.
