WINNING PERFORMANCE

All-new, Triumph’s first 450cc competition powertrain, compact, mass-optimised and built to take the holeshot. Engineering, design and equipment working in harmony for class leading power, control, and flexibility​.

POWER DELIVERY

Lightweight 4-Stroke Powertrain – The TF 450-RC’s single-cylinder, SOHC 450cc engine is built for racing, delivering robust power while minimizing weight for a class leading power-to-weight ratio.

At the core of this engine are top-tier components, including a Konig-forged aluminium piston, which provides strength and durability at high speeds, and DelWest titanium valves for improved airflow and faster actuation. With class-leading power, the 450 engine offers relentless drive and acceleration, making it a standout in the motocross segment.

The TF 450-RC’s 5-speed gearbox, with a quickshifter fitted as standard for clutchless upshifts from 2nd to 5th gear, ensures seamless power delivery for maximum focus on the track.

A balance of power, precision, and durability that sets a new standard in the 450cc motocross class​.

DESIGNED FOR THE WIN

The 450cc engine’s narrow profile improves ergonomics, allowing riders more control and comfort. It is housed in light magnesium covers for further weight reduction. The high-capacity clutch features a steel basket, and plates designed to handle the demands of racing, ensuring durability during intense use. The hydraulic clutch actuation, with Brembo master and slave cylinders, ensures smooth and consistent clutch control.

SIGNATURE GRAPHICS

The TF 450-RC features a distinctive graphics scheme curated by Carmichael himself. The colour design prominently incorporates Triumph’s performance yellow with black, and white accents. It also includes RC’s iconic number 4, GOAT logo and key sponsor details, adding a personalized flair that reflects the spirit of the motocross legend. This design is carried across number boards, swingarm decals, and other visual elements, reinforcing the bike's unique identity.


HANDLEBAR AND GRIPS

Precision, control and durability are at the forefront of the TF 450-RC’s design, especially with the inclusion of the ODI RC4 Signature handlebars. Made from triple-butted, tapered wall tubing, these bars are designed to deliver a perfect balance of strength and flex. Constructed from seamless 2014-T6 alloy and hard-anodized for enhanced durability, the bars feature oversized clamps and half-waffle ODI lock-on grips, ensuring excellent rider comfort, vibration dampening, and impact resistance.

PREMIUM RACE FEATURES

When hundredths of a second can make the difference between taking the Holeshot and getting stuck in the pack, the XT​rig Holeshot Device helps you get the perfect start by preloading the front suspension, lowering the centre of gravity and reducing front wheel lift for quicker acceleration​.

The bike is also equipped as standard with a Triumph Racing Hinson clutch cover, a front disc guard to deflect debris and impacts, and a gripper seat cover to reduce slipping and enhance rider control

​These premium components elevate the TF 450-RC’s overall performance and reliability.

LIGHTWEIGHT AND STRONG

The TF 450-RC features a unique aluminium chassis, designed to provide a perfect balance of performance, mass and flexibility. The frame’s spine and twin cradle design offer exceptional strength while minimizing weight, contributing to the bike’s overall agility and handling on the track. Hand TIG-welded craftsmanship ensures durability and precision in every detail.


The chassis has been race-optimized for longitudinal, lateral, and torsional stiffness, ensuring the best performance under extreme conditions. This allows for exceptional handling and provides the rider with precise feedback and control during intense riding. The result is a chassis that delivers top-tier performance and reliability, tailored for competitive racing.


CONTROL AND BALANCE

The aluminium chassis is specifically tuned for the 450cc powertrain, delivering outstanding control and balance. Key design elements, including new upper and lower aluminium triple clamps, and dedicated top end mounts, are engineered to handle the increased power and loads. This optimized stiffness provides superior stability and responsiveness, giving riders the confidence to push the bike to its limits.

​PRECISION BRAKING 

The TF 450-RC features premium braking components for maximum control. Brembo calipers and levers provide precise, responsive braking, while Galfer discs offer durability and excellent heat dissipation. This combination ensures smooth, reliable braking performance, even under heavy use, giving riders confidence and control in all racing conditions.
