The Hot Cams Stage 2 Racing Camshaft is engineered for riders who demand stronger engine response and race-focused performance from their Yamaha YZ450F. Manufacturer part number 4166-2EX, also identified by vendor part number 4166-2EX, this high-performance camshaft uses Hot Cams Improved Throttle Response (ITR) technology to optimize the critical opening-ramp area. The result is a cleaner intake charge, a more efficient combustion cycle, and sharper response across the throttle range.
Unlike camshaft designs developed solely for dyno power, the Hot Cams Stage 2 profile is designed to improve both power delivery and rider control on the track. Its racing-oriented design helps the engine respond more quickly to throttle inputs, giving the rider improved feel during acceleration and transitions. The camshaft is intended for use with stock valve springs and rockers in most applications, helping simplify installation while maintaining compatibility with the factory valvetrain components.
Fitment includes the 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 Yamaha YZ450F. No core is required. This camshaft is designed for racing applications and is not legal for use in California on pollution-controlled vehicles; California use is limited to racing applications, with a waiver available where applicable. Verify engine configuration and installation requirements before fitting.
