YZ85

MY25 ride away price $8,149.00 including GST.

As an important entry into the world of competitive motocross, the YZ85 has long been the mini race bike of choice for future champions. Light, nimble and fun with a top shelf suspension, it serves up big-bike spec in a small bike package.

Along with its proven liquid-cooled YPVS-equipped 85cc powerplant, fully adjustable suspension and large diameter brakes, the YZ85 rider ergonomics include a narrow tank design, flat seat, side covers and slim symmetrical radiator shrouds. This enables greater freedom of movement for smooth shifting of body weight and better machine control.

Key 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.

  • HANDLEBAR-MOUNTED 2-MODE MAPPING SWITCH

    Once you've selected your two preferred engine maps and preloaded them for your riding session using the Yamaha Power Tuner app you can select your mapping using the handlebar-mounted switch. This on-the-fly adjustment enables you to switch the mapping mode with the throttle shut while riding, giving you the ultimate control in all conditions.

  • EASY-TO-USE POWER TUNER APP

    Yamaha's invisible advantage is the free Power Tuner app that makes it easy to adjust engine performance character to suit different tracks, changing surface or weather conditions via your smartphone.

  • NEW LIGHTWEIGHT CHASSIS COMPONENTS

    Various measures have been made to get unsprung weight as low as possible for even more responsive chassis performance. A new lightweight rear hub as well as a redesigned chain contribute towards the latest model's weight reduction.
