- Front brake master cylinder features an adjustable lever for increased comfort and feel.
- Drilled rear brake disc reduces unsprung weight for improved suspension action and excellent braking feel on the Raptor 700R SE.
- Cast aluminum swingarm carries a eccentric quick-adjust drive chain mechanism that takes most of the work out of that task.

- High-performance 21×7-10 front and 20×10-9 rear Dunlop® radials with a specially designed tread pattern deliver superb, class-leading traction for razor-sharp handling in a variety of terrain and conditions.
- Lightweight aluminum wheels help enhance suspension performance by reducing unsprung weight.
- YFZ450 twin-aluminum-piston front disc brakes and rear disc deliver tremendous stopping power with less unsprung weight.
- YFZ450 45mm serrated footpegs provide excellent boot traction.
