ENGINE -
Nearly every functional part of the engine was revised in 2022
- Cylinder body, cylinder head, piston, piston pin, connecting rod, crankcase and expansion chamber, to a revised cylinder port shape and updated cylinder port timing.
-
Intake design allows for a straighter, more efficient draw of air into the intake tract.
-
Patented YPVS™ combines crisp, hard-hitting bottom-end acceleration with strong mid-range and top-end.
-
Digital CDI system delivers precise spark and monitors engine speed to ensure optimal timing
- Resulting in faster, stronger response during hard acceleration
-
Large-capacity radiator features a 10-row core with blacked-out louvers to deliver an aggressive look and maximum cooling efficiency.
-
Close-ratio, 6-speed transmission uses optimized gear ratios.
- ratios are matched to engine output for maximum performance
- optimal hook-up for outstanding acceleration & corner-exiting power
- transmission features "involute splines" for smooth, positive shifting even under power
-
Yamaha's patented YPVS system.
- features a slide (guillotine) type power valve that provides the benefits of both solid, low-rpm power delivery combined with a strong top-end punch. This system varies the exhaust port height and timing based on engine rpm.
-
New high-precision Hitachi Astemo® Keihin PWK38S carburetor
- Features a power jet, throttle position sensor and 3D-map-controlled CDI unit for precise ignition timing.
