    • for on-the-fly clutch adjustments

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

  • Lightweight, aluminum, semi-double-cradle frame.
    • combines with compact engine to provide an awesome power to weight ratio
    • obvious benefit of an aluminum frame is a significant weight reduction
    • Yamaha maintains semi-double cradle design because it offers an excellent rigidity balance between lateral and torsional rigidity while offering controlled flex in the longitudinal plane
    • result is a light aluminum frame, which provides excellent handling, good ride quality, excellent stability and responsive cornering performance
  • Removable rear subframe.
    • constructed of square-section, lightweight aluminum
    • detachable design allows easy access when servicing rear suspension components
  • Lightweight, tapered design aluminum swingarm.
    • produced by "hydro forming", a forming method that uses high pressure water to form shapes
    • excellent rear wheel traction and control
    • lightweight design
  • Cast aluminum upper and forged lower triple clamps.
    • strong yet lightweight
    • fast, agile handling
  • Adjustable handlebar mounts.
    • handlebar can be moved 10 mm rearward if desired
  • "Speed Sensitive System" 48 mm, adjustable, inverted, "twin chamber" KYB fork. Front wheel travel is 300 mm (11.8").
    • fork adjustments include: 20-way compression damping and 20-way rebound damping
    • optional fork springs are available through Genuine Yamaha parts
    • low-friction fork seals provide reduced stiction for a smoother stroke
    • twin-chamber design means the damper unit is in a separate structure which prevents aerated fork oil from entering the inner damper assembly and degrading its damping abilities
    • the inner damper is pressurized, it also eliminates bubbles forming in the oil
    • "Speed Sensitive" design means the damping force is controlled by piston speed, not position in the fork
  • Fork also features a Transfer Control Valve (TCV).
    • TCV enhances damping from mid to full stroke and improves bottoming characteristics
    • TCV offers more precise control throughout the full suspension stroke
    • TCV is located on the upside of the spring and its function is controlled by piston speed, not piston position, hence the term "Speed Sensitive System fork"
  • Large wrap-around plastic fork protectors.
    • provide excellent protection from dirt, mud and stone chips
    • self-supporting design reduces friction for smoother stroke
  • Monocross link rear suspension features a fully adjustable, KYB piggyback shock which provides 315 mm (12.4") of wheel travel.
    • features separate adjusters for high- and low-speed compression damping
    • adjustments include: spring preload, 20-way rebound damping, 20-way low-speed compression damping and 2 turns of high speed compression damping
    • 18 mm damper rod
    • Kashima coating (friction reducer) is used in the shock body and sub tank to reduce friction and improve suspension performance
    • piggyback shock utilizes a full rebound oil lock system for excellent suspension function and great ride quality.
  • 270 mm floating front disc brake with Nissin twin piston caliper.
    • "wave" style rotor (disc) reduces weight, improves cooling (more surface area) and improves styling
    • braking performance is excellent with great feel and control
  • "Shorty" front brake lever is adjustable for various hand sizes.
  • 245 mm rear disc brake with single piston caliper.
    • integrated master cylinder (fluid reservoir is integrated into the top of the master cylinder)
