2020 Yamaha YZ65

Designed for the discriminating mini moto racer that wants to win and propel themselves into the victory zone.

Features may include:

• Potent Two-Stroke Engine

The 65cc two-stroke powerplant features the same advanced technologies found in Yamaha's race-winning YZ125 and YZ250 motocrossers.

• Race-Developed Intake

Proven reed-valve induction improves acceleration and throttle response across the entire powerband, with a carefully tuned Keihin® PWK28 carburetor to meter fuel flow.

• Yamaha Power Valve System

Patented YPVS™ combines crisp bottom-end torque with potent midrange and free-revving top-end, making the most of the compact engine and lightweight chassis.

• Close-Ratio Transmission

Six-speed, close-ratio transmission optimizes gear ratios for maximum performance, giving riders the right gear for every race condition.

• Compact Steel Frame

The YZ65 offers light, neutral handling built on a strong steel cradle frame. Designed around the rigidity balance required for the 65cc class, this frame delivers excellent bump absorption in the roughest track sections, jump landings and whoop sections.

• Lightweight Subframe

Removable aluminum rear subframe is constructed of square-section tubing for reduced weight and convenient maintenance, just like on the full-size motocross bikes.

• Adjustable Suspension Systems

Up front, a 36mm KYB® coil spring fork offers excellent compliance with settings based on Yamaha’s extensive testing experience. Out back, a link-less shock design is light, compact, and works through a swingarm with YZ125-style chain adjusters. Both front and rear suspension systems are tunable for both rebound and compression damping.

• Adjustable Ergonomics

The YZ65 is highly tunable to fit riders of various sizes, with a 4-position adjustable aluminum handlebar clamp, adjustable position clutch and front brake levers, grippy foot pegs, and long seat design to help riders move across the bike.
