Yamaha motocross motorcycles 2022. Finally, updates!

Yamaha motocross motorcycles 2022

Since Yamaha won its first Motocross World Championship nearly 50 years ago, the company has continued to support the sport by creating prize-winning models for riders of all ages and abilities.

Yamaha was one of the first Japanese manufacturers to create dedicated racing motorcycles for young riders, and the first to introduce four-stroke dirt bikes. Today, Yamaha is still one of the leading brands in motocross, and one of its important aspects is the children's motocross scene, where future champions hone their skills before moving on to the adult league.

That's why, since 2015, Yamaha has supported the hugely successful YZ bLU cRU FIM Europe Cup program, giving young riders on the YZ125, YZ85 and YZ65 the annual chance to qualify for the bLU cRU Europe Cup SuperFinale and prove themselves to a huge international audience at the prestigious Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations.

For 2022, Yamaha will offer a new YZ125, as well as significantly updated YZ250 and YZ85, designed to give every rider the opportunity to realize their true potential.

Yamaha YZ125 2022

Yamaha YZ125 2022

The 2022 version of the Yamaha YZ125 will receive a completely updated, more powerful engine along with a seriously updated chassis, as well as a narrower and radical-looking body. All this makes the new Yamaha YZ125 the most competitive version of the YZ125 ever.

The new version, equipped with a significantly more powerful engine, will at the same time become more comfortable to drive, with sharper steering, powerful brakes and improved ergonomics. The 2022 YZ125 is designed to be the best choice for new and emerging riders, allowing them to build experience and confidence to take them to the next level.

The performance of the YZ125 clearly demonstrates Yamaha's desire to give future champions the best to prepare them to compete for top honors when they move up to the pros.

New 125cc Yamaha YZ125 engine

Yamaha engineers have built from the ground up the most powerful 125cc two-stroke engine ever to power a production YZ125, delivering significantly more mid- and high-end power. Nearly every component of the 2022 model's engine has been updated, and as a result, along with the performance gains, the engine is also more controllable, comfortable and powerful at the top end, allowing cross racers to take full advantage of their power advantage, outperforming their opponents on any part of the 'cross track.

New head, cylinder and piston

The head, cylinder and piston feature an all-new design, the most significant aspect of which is the reshaped combustion chamber, as well as a shorter exhaust port and updated cylinder ports that significantly improve combustion efficiency.

New power valve

The improvements are complemented by a new power valve in the exhaust system (YPVS) with a modified maximum stroke amplitude and updated opening-closing timing, which increases engine performance and controllability.

New carburetor and reed valve

An important feature of the new model is the use of a Keihin PWK carburetor with a 38.1mm diffuser, which gives a powerful jerk if necessary. The new carburetor is equipped with a throttle position sensor and a digital switch with a three-dimensional ignition map that optimizes the ignition timing based on various factors, including throttle opening speed. Combined with a new V-Force reed valve and an updated intake manifold design, the new carburetor gives the YZ125 stronger acceleration off the line and explosive power out of corners.

Longer connecting rod and heavier crankshaft

Other internal changes that make the new Yamaha YZ125 engine more powerful include a longer connecting rod and a slightly heavier crankshaft, increasing inertia and optimizing engine behavior. In addition, the new crankshaft has been balanced for the increased power.

New air route

A key feature of the new Yamaha YZ125 is its completely redesigned air intake system. By redesigning the rear subframe, side panels and seat base, Yamaha engineers have reduced air resistance by 15%, achieving significant improvements in air intake efficiency on the new model. This not only significantly increases traction at mid and high speeds, making the engine more horse-riding, but also improves throttle response at low and mid speeds for more stable operation.

New exhaust

The shape and size of the 2022 Yamaha YZ125 exhaust have been changed to match the rest of the engine changes. The diameter of the expansion chamber at its widest point has been slightly reduced, and the muffler has become 50mm shorter.

Transmission

The 2022 YZ125's six-speed transmission is stronger to handle the engine's higher horsepower. The final drive ratio was slightly increased by using 13/49 tooth sprockets (previously 13/48 teeth), and fifth and sixth gears were made slightly shorter. A new shift shaft and updated return spring make the lever feel significantly softer and smoother. In addition, for the new, more powerful engine, the clutch springs were replaced with stiffer ones.

Plastic

The 2022 Yamaha YZ125 features a narrower tank, new seat and updated graphics, giving the bike a radical, modern and athletic look to complement the more powerful engine. The new tank design also provides improved chassis control.

Flat seat

The top surface of the seat was made flat by lowering the front by 6mm and raising the rear by 5mm, and the new tank flows into the front without a step. The new seat allows the rider to move more freely to transfer weight, and is also easily removed for servicing the motorcycle - just unscrew one bolt.

Narrow tank and plastic radiator

The Yamaha YZ125 is one of the lightest and nimblest motorcycles in its class, and the new model is even narrower thanks to a new tank and narrow radiator plastic, making the new version the most compact YZ125 ever produced. The width of the bike between the rider's knees has been reduced by 36mm, giving a real feeling of lightness and nimbleness.

New fenders and side panels

To improve the flow of air into the airbox at high speed, the side panels, rear fender and lower seat have been modified. The shape of the front fender has been reshaped for a more dynamic appearance.

New rear subframe

The Yamaha YZ125 is based on a high-quality lightweight aluminum half-duplex frame. The 2022 version's rear subframe has a new mounting point for a shorter muffler, and a new crossmember design allows air to flow freely to the airbox. The new cross member is also the mounting point for the seat, which can be removed by simply unscrewing one bolt.

Updated suspension settings

KYB's Yamaha YZ125 suspensions are considered best-in-class and feature leaf springs/washers in the valving design for excellent mid-speed smoothing. For 2022, both YZ125 suspensions have had their low-speed smoothing settings updated.

Brake system

To improve braking power and precision, the 2022 model features a new two-piston caliper on an updated 270mm front disc. Larger 25.4mm pistons combined with new pads provide a 30% increase in disc contact area, allowing riders to lower their lap times by braking later and harder with a new, more powerful front brake system.

Colors and graphics

The new Yamaha YZ125 gets the latest Icon Blue colorway, combining Yamaha's famous blue with a darker matte blue. New die-cast graphics highlight the dynamic and athletic appearance of the new generation 125cc model.

Yamaha YZ125 Monster Energy Yamaha Racing Edition

Yamaha designed the YZ125 Monster Energy Yamaha Racing Edition to inspire young riders and give them the opportunity to have a factory-style bike. Featuring exclusive black paint and graphics based on the Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP and MX2 motorcycles, the YZ125 Monster Energy Yamaha Racing Edition features identical performance specs to the 2022 YZ125 in Icon Blue.

Yamaha YZ250F (2007): Test drive

Choosing a motorcycle is akin to choosing a life partner: you are looking for a disadvantage that can cancel out a lot of advantages. For a lover of off-road riding, an “extra” ten kilograms of the device can become such a repulsive property... This happened to me: remembering how my eyes popped into my head when I had to drag a WR or XR out of a mud trap, I decided to ride a motorcycle with a minimum weight - Yamaha YZ250F.

“Yes, it weighs like a bicycle!” - I felt when I unloaded the newly purchased YZ from the trailer. Of course, the frame is aluminum. And they designed the mots according to the principle of “nothing superfluous.”

Everything in the landing is as usual. The seat is narrow and hard, like a board, I can’t reach the ground with both feet. But it’s okay, it’s not worth jostling around in traffic jams in the city. Where is the starter button? Oh yes, it's a cross-shoe! Okay, with a kickstarter, a 4-cylinder engine starts easily and naturally when you know how to do it. Otherwise, I had time to suffer quite a bit before they explained to me that I didn’t need to turn the throttle when the enrichment was on and how to kick the “poker” correctly.

While the engine was warming up, I discovered a pleasant feature of the machine: vibrations from the engine are almost not felt. Or is this compared to the crazy shaking of the 450 cc engine of the previous WR? Dare you even assume that since the YZ250F doesn't vibrate, it doesn't ride as it should?

Yamaha YZ250F

First, acceleration... Second, third, fourth... And that's all? And the fifth one wasn’t “put in the box”? No, there was a mistake - this is the fifth one. It’s just that it’s so close to the fourth that I didn’t even understand how I managed to jump onto it.

Finding neutral is a real challenge. In the end, I gave up on this idea and subsequently turned off and started the motorcycle in gear with the clutch depressed. By the way, about the clutch: the lever is easily squeezed with two fingers, the mechanism works clearly.

Having driven it for a spin, I felt that the engine was tuned to operate in the upper range and behaved almost like a two-stroke, that is, it “spins up” to high speeds (a couple of times it even seemed to me that the limiter was faulty), but at the “lower levels” it does not pull at all. When I tried to crawl over the obstacle under tension, the engine, snorting offendedly, stalled. I understood what was going on: due to the high speed of the engine, the throttle must be kept in one of two positions: either “open” or “closed”. I tried to find the intermediate one - and I made a mistake.

The engine’s response to the movement of the throttle is instantaneous, but not sharp, so when exiting a turn you can “press the trigger” without even having time to completely level the motorcycle, and not be afraid that the rear wheel will start to drift. You can lift the YZ into the “candle” position from the gas only in the first two gears. It’s not at all clear how to go through waves at high speed: either try to lift the front end “at the moment”, or “pull down” at full throttle. When in the field at a speed of about 60 km/h I saw tractor ruts straight ahead, I simply could not lift the front wheel by opening the gas... But on this “washboard” I appreciated the rigidity of the chassis and suspension. Rating - “5”: not the slightest “sausage” or yaw! Although the standard suspensions do not have a very wide range of adjustments, I don’t remember a time when they were not enough. When landing correctly from a springboard, the suspension did not break, but my hands did not go numb on bumps either. Jumping on YZ is something! Any front end tilt can be eliminated with a slight “plus” turn of the throttle—and gliding on the YZ250F is a delight every time.

From the very beginning, I decided not to be greedy and “feed” the device only with 98-octane gasoline. A full tank lasts for about a hundred kilometers. This is more than enough for cross-country training. Another thing is that those who conquer long distances will have to carry a bottle of reserve gasoline with them.

How does it steer, you ask? The crossover should not be steered, but piloted. Again, this is not for you to push through traffic jams: on the highway you need to turn not by influencing the steering wheel, but by changing your weight distribution and body position. Here the controllability of the apparatus is of great importance. And the YZ is fine with this: it’s easy to “tuck” into a turn, it “stands” perfectly on the trajectory.

Knowing my passion for the color yellow, my friends gave me a set of bright yellow fenders, and now my Yamaha seems to me the most beautiful in the world. The motorcycle is cool, and the pleasure of owning it will not end soon. That’s how I drive now—I accelerate with one hand and wipe away tears of joy with the other.

Yamaha YZ250 2022

Yamaha YZ250 2022

Few models from other manufacturers can match the longevity of the Yamaha YZ250 two-stroke. It was the original YZ250 that gave Yamaha its first world championship win in 1973 - the first of many, many victories in the 250cc class.

And today the reputation and popularity of this racing model is high, thanks to those riders who value it for its light weight, simplicity of design, excellent appearance and excellent performance. It's fair to say that the Yamaha YZ250 is a true legend among off-road motorcycles.

Development of the Yamaha YZ250 continues, and for 2022 the updated model features a new super-thin body, making it one of the most dynamic-looking motorcycles on the track. But the new model is more than just a cosmetic update, and the list of new features includes a more powerful braking system, updated suspensions, lighter weight components and a high-performance intake system.

Narrow body with a horizontal silhouette

The Yamaha YZ250 has received a new body kit that makes its body narrower, similar to the YZ125, and has a strictly horizontal top line of the silhouette, giving the motorcycle an aggressive, sporty design. The new tank and radiator plastic are much narrower between the knees, allowing the rider to comfortably transfer weight in corners or other situations where the suspension needs to be loaded and unloaded. In addition, the compact body gives a feeling of lightness and nimbleness, emphasizing the athletic character of the new model.

Flat seat

In addition to the narrow body, the 2022 Yamaha YZ250 boasts a new seat shape that is flatter on top, with improved ergonomics that allow the rider to more comfortably transfer weight across the bike.

New rear wing and side panels

The front fender looks sharper and more dynamic, while the new side panels and rear fender allow air to flow more freely into the airbox. This is achieved through larger air ducts in the side panels, a new seat base design, and a rear wing shape that does not create an obstruction in the air path. As a result, the increase in intake capacity improves the engine's performance at high speeds, and its efficiency is further enhanced by a new exhaust tract with changed shape and dimensions.

Brake system

The new Yamaha YZ250 features an updated braking system that delivers increased performance and responsiveness while being lighter than before. The 270 front disc of the new shape has the same diameter as before, but a stiffer caliper installed on it with pistons of increased diameter - 25.4 mm - has a 30% larger contact area between the pads and the disc, which provides excellent braking force and the highest information content on the lever, allowing you to literally brake with the force of one finger.

The rear brake has also been modified: it received a 240-mm disc (5 mm smaller) and a new caliper with the same pad contact area and performance as the previous version, but almost 100 g lighter.

Updated suspension settings

The 48mm premium KYB SSS fork and Monocross link rear suspension with KYB shock have been tweaked to improve their low-speed performance.

Lightweight components

The use of a new clutch lever and rear sprocket further reduces the weight of the motorcycle

New colors and graphics

Yamaha YZ85 2022

Yamaha YZ85 2022

Many of today's motocross legends started out riding a Yamaha YZ85. Light, nimble, fast and reliable, the junior model is a smaller version of Yamaha's larger motocross motorcycles, using the same engine and chassis technologies as the older models, the YZ125 and YZ250. The new 2022 Yamaha YZ85 is an excellent entry point into the world of motocross and a career as a professional racer.

The YZ85's new compact body, flat seat and a number of chassis tweaks largely mirror the changes made to the new YZ125, and as the older model, the 2022 YZ85 is more powerful, more composed and more comfortable.

New dynamic design

The 2022 Yamaha YZ85's design closely follows the larger YZ series models, and the new compact body kit features a sharp horizontal topline that, along with the flat seat and updated side panels, give this teen motorcycle a confident and aggressive appearance.

The new two-tone colorway features sections of the iconic Icon Blue with contrasting darker matte blue sections. The new injected graphics are designed to withstand the rigors of motocross riding, keeping the bike looking great all season long.

New narrow body kit

The 2022 Yamaha YZ85 features a narrower bodykit that provides the rider with freedom of movement and comfortable weight transfer during acceleration, braking and cornering. The updated radiator plastic is 25mm narrower at its widest point and now features a symmetrical design, providing a balanced appearance from the rider's perspective.

The new front fender allows free flow of air flow to the radiator, providing the YZ85 with efficient engine cooling. The dynamic design is complemented by the compact new YZ85 body kit, emphasizing the features inherited from the YZ125.

Flat seat and updated tank

Like the YZ125, the 2022 Yamaha YZ85 gets a flatter seat that allows for more comfortable weight transfer. In addition, the ergonomics of the updated model have been improved thanks to a new 5-liter tank, the neck of which allows it to move forward more freely. The one-bolt seat makes servicing the motorcycle easier and faster.

High efficiency air intake

The new Yamaha YZ85 side panels serve two important roles: First, their smooth surface allows the rider to move freely while quickly transferring weight. And secondly, they are equipped with air ducts that provide freer passage of air into the airbox, which results in more efficient engine operation at high speeds.

Linear operation of the rear brake

The 2022 Yamaha YZ85 gets a new rear brake master cylinder with an integrated reservoir reservoir. This design, replacing the previous version with a separate reservoir and hose, provides a more natural and linear brake pedal action with more precise feedback.

Lightweight aluminum subframe and new swingarm

The 2022 Yamaha YZ85 chassis features a new lightweight aluminum rear subframe that is 570g lighter than the previous version's steel subframe—a significant weight reduction that further improves the bike's weight distribution.

An updated swingarm with an improved balance between longitudinal and torsional rigidity improves chassis stability and allows more efficient transmission of engine thrust to the ground.

MY MOTORCYCLE

The Yamaha YZ250F is a direct and very worthy successor to one of the most legendary motorcycles of the Japanese company - the Yamaha YZ400F, which was born in 1998. At one time, it made a real splash in the world of motocross because it became the first production motocross bike with a four-stroke engine, which was not inferior to its two-stroke competitors. It took the designers very little time and effort for a whole series of his successful and very effective descendants to be born. And it was after this that the history of motocross began to be written by those athletes who competed on Yamaha equipment, because their opponents had almost no chance against them.

Although, it would seem, everything should have been the other way around - a four-stroke engine is more complex and heavier than a two-stroke engine, it has more moving parts - valves, camshafts. In addition, such a motor is more expensive to maintain. However, the path to progress cannot be blocked - and as a result of progress, four-stroke engines have won.

The 2014 Yamaha YZ250F began to ride faster and jump higher - the designers made its engine even more powerful than its predecessors.

The latest generation Yamaha YZ250F has become even more powerful - and the designers tried to make sure that the engine delivers maximum power and torque at medium speeds. This is especially important on tracks with a lot of jumps, when the rider does not have time to rev up the engine before the next jump. However, the designers did not get by with just upgrading the ignition maps - the engine of the latest Yamaha YZ250F underwent a very serious and comprehensive modernization. Looking ahead, let's say that as a result of this work, the power unit has become so powerful that sitting behind the wheel of a motorcycle it is difficult to believe that the engine displacement is only 249 cubic meters. According to company representatives, they managed to remove no less than 40 horsepower from the engine. This is only five horses less than in the YZ400F model with a much larger engine!

Surprisingly, with a noticeable increase in performance, the main key characteristics - piston stroke and cylinder diameter (77 mm by 53.6 mm), as well as the compression level (13.5: 1) remained exactly the same as on the previous model. The designers managed to increase power primarily by installing 44 mm Keihin throttle bodies with 10-point injectors. Before this, engineers experimented a lot with injectors with 4 and 12 injection holes, but finally settled on 10-point ones, since they gave optimal power distribution in the engine speed range.

The level of supply of the fuel-air mixture to the combustion chambers is closely monitored by electronics, which takes into account a huge number of parameters from the throttle opening level to the crankshaft speed and even the coolant temperature. Thanks to the new electronic intake system, the Yamaha YZ250F engine began to reliably start from the very first push of the kickstarter, although previously it had to be pulled three or four times, sometimes even when the engine was warm.

By making changes to the design of the motorcycle, engineers, among other things, tried to concentrate the center of mass in the engine area - thanks to this, the Yamaha YZ250F gained excellent handling.

The second major change in the engine was its placement on the frame: if on previous models the power unit had a slight tilt back (about 10 degrees), now the engineers tilted it forward by 6.2 degrees. It would seem that the change is insignificant, but thanks to the change in the position of the motor, the cylinder stood almost vertically, which minimized piston friction, and the power unit itself moved closer to the center of mass of the motorcycle. The pistons were also replaced with new ones - 2 millimeters shorter and 13 grams lighter than their predecessors.

Having finished working on the engine, the engineers were faced with a new difficulty - the power unit of the new layout did not want to fit into the old frame, so it had to be redone. As a result, a new aluminum symmetrical beam frame was born, which has exactly the same geometric characteristics as the previous one with one exception - it has become 14 mm narrower. Thanks to this feature, when riding the Yamaha YZ250F of the latest model year, you get the feeling that it has become a little more compact than its predecessor. By the way, the same frame is used today in the Yamaha YZ450F model, with the only difference being the placement of the holes for mounting the motor.

On the new frame, the location of the muffler had to be slightly changed - the designers moved it almost 20 centimeters forward - closer to the center of mass. The gas tank was moved back for the same purpose; by the way, compared to its predecessors, it has grown in volume and now holds 9.5 liters of fuel. All this work was not in vain - although the Yamaha YZ250F was previously distinguished by excellent handling, now with optimal weight distribution it has become even more obedient. Sometimes while driving you feel like you are becoming one with the bike.

The suspension of the updated Yamaha YZ250F may not seem the softest at first; the usual inverted telescopic fork is actually completely inherited from its predecessor due to its high reliability. At the rear, the designers also installed the KYB monoshock absorber, which has repeatedly proven its quality, working in tandem with an aluminum pendulum. The suspension can be easily adjusted, and the shock absorber travel of 300 mm at the front and 312 mm at the rear is more than enough to handle any bumps and hard landings.

The brakes are great too, with a twin-piston caliper up front gripping the 250mm disc firmly and responding instantly to the handlebar lever. Her effort is more than enough to stop a motorcycle weighing more than 100 kilograms in a split second. To assist the front brake, the rear wheel has another 245mm disc with a single-piston caliper. The brakes do their job well on any type of surface, but that's also thanks to the Bridgestone M404-A tires up front and M403 tires at the rear, which bite into dirt, gravel and asphalt equally well.

The Yamaha YZ250F is not a cheap cross bike, but this motorcycle is worth the money, especially if you buy it not for weekend rides, but to write a history of victories.
Such a goal justifies any means. https://youtu.be/D9PnWnH5Yq8
