The YZ85 is a popular choice for young motocross competitors. It is light, nimble, and fun, with high-quality suspension, offering big-bike features in a small package.
The YZ85 comes with a liquid-cooled YPVS-equipped 85cc powerplant, fully adjustable suspension, and large-diameter brakes. Its rider ergonomics feature a narrow tank design, flat seat, side covers, and slim symmetrical radiator shrouds. These design elements allow for greater freedom of movement, smooth shifting of body weight, and improved machine control.
The 85cc liquid-cooled engine features the Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS) that boosts overall performance and contributes towards the bike’s easy-to-use torque. Running with a high compression ratio – and equipped with a close ratio 6-speed transmission – the YZ85 delivers outstanding acceleration with race-winning power.
Built for demanding junior racers, the YZ85LW's chassis is optimised for strength, rigidity and overall handling stability. The aluminium swingarm offers a refined balance between longitudinal and torsional rigidity, and the removable rear subframe constructed from lightweight, high-strength aluminium reduces weight.
The 36mm KYB® fork has 275mm travel and adjustable compression and rebound damping. It performs well in various conditions and for different riders with low-friction tubes and settings.
The four-position adjustable handlebar mounts and taper-style handlebar allow the rider to tune the handlebar position to suit their size and preferences. A 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.
Advanced intake design allows for a straighter, more efficient draw of air into the intake tract. A high-flow airbox ensures excellent air filter performance and easy maintenance.
Big wave-style brake discs offer improved self-cleaning and cooler running performance. The 220mm front disc and 190mm rear disc deliver strong, precise stopping power. The rear brake master cylinder also includes a built-in sub-reservoir to provide a more linear brake response and increased control.
