YFM700R - Awesome Power with Absolute Control !!

When you’re looking for a head-turning ATV that delivers a massive spread of liquid-cooled power and offers ultra-sharp handling, there is only one model that ticks all the right boxes.

Raptor 700R is designed to dominate in the widest range of riding environments, from tight woods to desert to dunes.

With its hybrid aluminium/steel sports chassis, fully adjustable suspension and large-diameter front discs, the remarkable YFM700R is built to dominate. And for awesome performance to match its great-handling chassis, this undisputed class leader is driven by a high-torque 686cc four-stroke engine that kicks out huge levels of power and torque that leave the opposition way, way behind !! 

FEATURES

♦   Raptor 700R becomes the first Sport ATV with a digital meter that includes speedometer, dual trip meters, odometer, clock and engine warning indicators, plus neutral and reverse indicators.

♦   New piggyback shocks have 5mm longer stroke for excellent sport-riding comfort, and are fully adjustable with convenient adjustment knobs to fine-tune the ride.

♦   A 686cc Yamaha fuel-injected engine makes this the most powerful Yamaha Sport ATV ever, with big torque right off idle, transitioning into a fat midrange and monstrous top end.

♦   Hybrid steel and aluminum frame with a Controlled Fill aluminum subframe and cast swingarm pivot combine to produce a super-strong structure and the lightest ATV in its class.

♦   Raptor 700R Special Edition includes wavestyle rear brake disc.

♦   Forged lightweight piston, connecting rod and crankshaft in the 686cc engine are light and strong for a hard-hitting, quick-revving powerplant that revs all the way through the rev range. Dual counterbalancers keep it smooth.

♦   Yamaha fuel injection means consistently excellent engine performance in a wide range of conditions, elevations and temperatures.

♦   Competition-spec dry-sump lubrication system boosts usable horsepower and keeps overall engine size more compact.

♦   Digital TCI w/16-bit electronic control unit controls fuel injection and ignition systems for consistent performance and fantastic throttle response.

♦   Reliable push button electric start in any gear adds extra convenience.

♦   Race-bred five-speed transmission with reverse, along with Raptor 700R’s monstrous powerband, means there’s a choice of gears in just about all situations.

♦   YZ-spec ratchet shifter ensures smooth, resistance-free shifting under power. Heavy-duty clutch features extra-sturdy basket and plates designed to harness the Raptor 700R’s power.

♦   Easy-to-reach oil filter and tool-free air filter.

♦   State-of-the-art chassis combines a steel front section with an aluminium rear section and detachable subframe to create a super-strong structure.

♦   Compact, CAD-designed chassis creates the ideal wheelbase for light, quick, super-accurate steering.

♦   Front brake master cylinder features an adjustable lever for increased comfort and feel.

♦   Cast aluminium swingarm carries an eccentric quick-adjust drive chain mechanism that takes most of the work out of that task.

♦   Handlebar-mounted flip-type parking brake lever and rear brake caliper adjust automatically.

♦   High-performance 21x7-10 front and 20x10-9 rear Dunlop radials with a specially designed tread pattern deliver superb, class-leading traction for razor-sharp handling in a variety of terrain and conditions.

♦   Lightweight aluminium wheels help enhance suspension performance by reducing unsprung weight.

♦   YFZ450R twin-aluminium piston front disc brakes and rear disc deliver tremendous stopping power with less unsprung weight.

♦   Controlled-fill aluminium subframe is light and strong. So is the composite front grab bar.

♦   Long, YZ-style seat allows maximum rider comfort and movement with superb sport-riding ergonomics.

♦   YFZ450R 30-watt multi-refl ector Krypton headlights set back in the front cowl add the perfect no-compromises sporting accent, and an LED tail light provides great visibility.

♦   Large-capacity, 11-litre fuel tank and fuel injection mean more time on the trail between fill-ups.

♦   Aggressive styling reflects Raptor 700R’s intent and YFZ inspired handling means it walks the walk too.
