Yamaha YZ450F SE Limited Edition WHITE!
Yamaha have added a 450SE model to the 2007 YZ-F range. As shown below, it has all white plastics, with silver graphics.

Yamaha have released the following info about the 2007 YZ450F and YZ450F SE in general:
For 2007, the engine has had camshaft and carb changes, along with a new CDI, aimed at low end and mid range improvement. The engine balancer has been lightened. An improved clutch with thinner but more rigid clutch plates – and more of them – offers a lighter lever feel, and a bigger diameter titanium exhaust rounds out the motor mods.
The chassis gets forged triple clamps with lighter clamp bolts. Also getting the weight reduction treatment are the fork tubes, wheel rims, and both front and rear discs are now lighter "wave" style rotors. A lightweight rear shock, with titanium spring, has been lengthened 1.5 mm for a slight ride height increase.
Pro taper bars, with an 8mm raised bend with forged clamps are new for 2007. A gripper style seat cover, titanium footpegs and a stainless steel clutch cable are nice features.
