The 2009 Yamaha YZ85 may be the smallets member of the YZ family, but it’s a big-time competitor. It’s got the power to win with a liquid-cooled, 85cc engine, 6-speed gearbox, and adjustable suspension up front and out back. This is one mighty mini.

The mini racer of choice. Born from the award winning YZ competition bikes, YZ 85 features a liquid-cooled, 84.7cc crankcase reed-valve-inducted six-speed that is compact and light. You also get an ultra-rigid, single backbone, semi-double-cradle frame, fully adjustable suspension and more to suit a wide range of rider from novice to mini expert.

With the same chassis and engine technology that goes into every 2-stroke YZ, the scaled-down YZ85 is a true competitor.
