    Differences between '06 X Frame & '09 X Frame

    by lexlu2569 » Wed Jan 13, 2016 3:16 pm

    Hello All,
    I'm trying to replace my '06 450X frame. I've come across a '05 and a '09 450X frame but I don't know what the differences are between those frames. Would my '06 parts bolt up to either frame without many issues?
    Help!!

    I believe that the only difference would be the Head Rake and the fact that the '06 doesn't have the Steering Dampener.Everything else should bolt right up.

    Crazy brother nailed it. I've heard that rake is different, but that could be due to offset triple clamps too. There shouldn't be any difference other than that though. I'd go with the 09 frame as its newer and most likely less used/abused.
