Discover more advantages of the Yamaha YFZ50 quad:

• Compact size with YFZ450R racer styling: the YFZ50 is equipped with a compact body that’s designed for riders between 6 and 9 years of age. Its flexible plastic panels have smooth edges for added safety, and the spacious riding position can accommodate children of different sizes. Styled just like the Yamaha YFZ450R racer, this is the stuff that dreams are made of.
• Easy to use and fun to ride: everything about the YFZ50 has been designed to make it easy to use and fun to ride. The handlebar-mounted brake levers operate in the same way as on a bicycle, making riders feel comfortable instantly. Plus there’s an electric start for quick and easy starting. Featuring fully automatic CVT V-belt transmission, the YFZ50 really is child’s play.
• Parental control safety features: the YFZ50 has been designed to give parents total control over their child’s riding. A throttle limiter screw adjusts acceleration and top speed to suit every skill level, while an electronic limiter can be switched to restrict the engine revolutions per minute, and finally a safety lanyard enables parents to cut the engine instantly if required.
• Low maintenance design: the YFZ50 is designed to provide hours and hours of fun for all the family, and so at Yamaha we’ve made sure that it’s easy to use and simple to maintain, even for those parents with no previous ATV experience. The automatic transmission means there’s no clutch to adjust. And the air filter can be inspected and cleaned without the need for tools. Just ride and enjoy.
• Reliable 49cc engine with automatic transmission: Powering this beginner’s ATV is an aircooled 49cc SOHC 4-stroke engine providing soft, reliable and controllable power, making this an ideal choice for new riders. Equipped with a CVT automatic V-belt transmission, this engine delivers hour after hour of fun.
• Easy to transport: being just 1250 mm long and 820 mm wide, the compact YFZ50 fits easily into a van, pickup and even the back of a family estate car, making it easy to transport to practice courses or country tracks. The parking brake stops it from moving when being transported, and a rear grab handle and the front carry bar make loading and unloading easy.
