Key Features

  • ALL NEW 2-STROKE ENGINE

    The 65cc two-stroke powerplant is all new for the YZ65, and features the same advanced technologies found in Yamaha's race-winning YZ125 and YZ250 motocrossers.

  • ADJUSTABLE ERGONOMICS

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

  • AGGRESSIVE YZ STYLING

    The YZ65 may be the smallest member of the family, but it packs in the same aggressive styling as the larger YZ and YZ-F siblings, even down to the slick blue Excel wheels.

  • ALL NEW SUSPENSION

    Up front, a 36mm KYB fork offers unmatched compliance with settings based on Yamaha's extensive racing experience. Out back, a new link-less shock design is light and compact to suit the needs of 65cc-class riders, and acts through a new swingarm with YZ125-style chain adjusters. Both front and rear suspension systems are tuneable for both rebound and compression damping.
