2026 Yamaha YZ85LW

Always go big! The YZ85 power and fun, combined with a large wheel package, allowing riders to bridge the gap to the next class. Featuring the Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS), fully-adjustable suspension, six-speed transmission and adjustable ergonomics, the YZ85LW is ready to win races straight off the dealership floor.

Features may include:

• Mechanical power valve system delivers effective exhaust timing throughout the entire rev range

• Provides excellent power and torque characteristics

• Boosts compression ratio and power output

• Delivers responsive acceleration just as the rider intends

• Slit-shaped valve on the side of the exhaust port operates in response to engine rpm

• In low-to-mid-rpm range when exhaust timing is slower, valve moves to cover the top part of the exhaust port

• In high rpm range when quick exhaust timing is needed, valve recedes and exhaust port is fully uncovered

• Shifting is reduced due to broad powerband

• less reciprocating mass and less friction for a faster revving engine

• excellent durability

• provides a hot, precise spark for fast sure starts

• provides optimal timing for quicker, stronger response at all rpms

• maintenance-free

• blend of light weight and good strength

• minimal flex for razor-sharp, moto-wining handling

• allows easy access for suspension maintenance

• reduces costs in the event of a loop-out (subframe can be purchased separately)

• Kayaba piggyback shock reduces shock temperatures during a long moto for fade resistant damping and consistent performance.

• adjustments include "threaded" spring preload, 15 clicks of compression and 20 clicks of rebound damping

• optional shock springs are available through Yamaha Genuine Parts and Accessories
