2023 Yamaha YZ85
VICTORY: NEVER GIVEN, ALWAYS EARNEDBuilt for fun. Built to win. The updated YZ85 serves up big-bike specs in a small-bike package.
Features may include:
TOP FEATURES- YPVS™ Two-Stroke Power
The 85cc liquid-cooled, two-stroke engine features the Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS™) for increased low- and mid-range power without losing peak power at high rpms, reducing the need for frequent shifting.
- Fully-Adjustable Suspension
Lightweight 36mm KYB® inverted cartridge fork features low-friction outer tubes, external compression and rebound damping adjustability, paired with a race-proven fully-adjustable KYB® rear shock. Both offer loads of suspension travel to tackle serious off-road competition.
ENGINE- Potent YPVS™ Two-Stroke Engine
The 85cc liquid-cooled, two-stroke engine features the Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS™) for broad power across the rev range without losing peak power at high rpms, reducing the need for frequent shifting.
- Tuned Crankcase & Intake
The crankcase design features a spacer-style reed valve intake for improved air/fuel flow, which inhales through a 28mm Hitachi Astemo® Keihin flat-slide carburetor for seamless throttle response.
CHASSIS/SUSPENSION- Fully-Adjustable Fork
The lightweight 36mm KYB® inverted cartridge fork features 10.8 inches of travel with compression and rebound damping adjustability. Complete with low-friction outer tubes and internals, the damping settings offer enhanced performance across a range of conditions and rider abilities.
- Fully-Adjustable Shock
Rear suspension features fully adjustable KYB® link-type shock with race-tested valving and 11.1 inches of travel. The progressive linkage-type design improves bottoming resistance, allowing racers to charge harder and improve lap times.
- Optimized Chassis Design
Built for demanding junior racers, the YZ85's chassis is optimized for strength, rigidity and overall handling stability. The aluminum swingarm offers refined balance between longitudinal and torsional rigidity, and the removable rear subframe constructed from lightweight, high-strength aluminum reduces weight.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES- Adjustable Rider Ergonomics
The four-position adjustable handlebar mounts and taper-style handlebar allow the rider to tune the handlebar position to suit their size and preferences. Flat seat and narrow fuel tank design, along with smoothly integrated body panels and slim shroud width, combine to enable greater freedom of movement for increased control and confidence.
