    The Vertemati SR450 Factory Race Replica is based on the machine currently campaigned by Factory pilot Max Manzo & Vertemati's young rising star Jerome Giraudo.

    The SR450 also features the new specially extended chrome moly chassis for a slightly longer wheel base, the result being even better handling (as with the SR600 Factory Rep.)

    The Vertemati turns like nothing else & the combination of light weight, taut frame & top notch WP suspension means a fast steering machine that gives loads of feedback to the rider. The vertemati is a confidence inspiring ride.

    The SR450 produces masses of low down grunt from the gear driven SOHC patented motor & unlike many four stroke singles the power doesn't tail off just when you need it. The hi reving power plant powers all the way though the rev range.

    With some riders moving to the competitive 450 Class. Vertemati have offered a very competitive package with the SR450.
