Visually, the 450 series remains identical to the outgoing models, save for the addition of two new colours across the portfolio- Hyper Sand and Stealth Blue. With the update, The 450X and 450 Apex will now be offered with traction control with three different modes – Rain Mode, Road Mode and Rally Mode. Another big change is the addition of the MagicTwist function, to the 450X.
