Front Brakes:

All SX models have new brake discs with round holes for weight reduction, less wear and reduced operating temperature

Rear Brakes:

All models have the same foot brake-cylinder (integrated reservoir) and the same brake calliper (26 mm) as 250 SX 2003

Body Work:

One-piece rear fender / side panel combination – same as last year’s 250 SX and 450 SX – for all models
