ENGINE
- Engine Limiter and Tether Switch
To help young beginners grow into accomplished ATV riders, the YFZ50 includes a two-stage rpm limiter as well as a throttle limiter to restrict the engine’s performance and adapt to the rider’s advancing skill levels. A tethered switch allows parents to closely monitor new riders and cut power to the engine, if necessary, as new riders learn the basics of ATV control. - Robust 49cc Engine
The 49cc four-stroke SOHC engine is tuned to develop excellent low- to-mid-range performance, just where it’s needed. The motor is air-cooled for simplicity, performance and long engine life, and it uses ultra-reliable wet-sump lubrication. - Electric Starter
Push-button electric starting comes standard and is powered by a reliable sealed battery while the kick starter is provided for additional peace of mind. - Automatic Transmission
Fully automatic, continuously variable transmission (CVT) means no shifting. Handy for all riders, it’s a feature new riders will particularly appreciate. - Sporty Drivetrain
Engine power is transferred to the rear wheels via a robust chain drive, running along a swingarm that’s set at an optimized angle for rear shock performance. - Low Maintenance Design
Servicing is easy, thanks to features like the toolless quick-access air filter element. The exhaust includes a standard spark arrestor as well.
