YAMAHA YFM Models/Series Timeline, Specifications & Photos

The 2013 Yamaha YFM700R is all about sporty character and race-worthy power deployment, both offered in a package which is easier to tame and therefore more suitable for non-professional riders. However, if racing-type off-road fun is what you're after, the 2013 YFM700R is one truly good choice. It comes with a hybrid chassis, just like the racing quads do, while the suspensions are trimmed to provide a smooth ride.

With awesome torque available right off idle, the 2013 Yamaha YFM700R is equally usable on forest trails and dirt tracks, provided riders can handle the manual 5-speed and reverse transmission. Powerful brakes ensure this beast is easy to steer, and with the ergonomic throttle, riding it the whole day will be less fatiguing.

The 2012 Yamaha YFM250R is a nifty choice for those in search of a very maneuverable off-road machine with the attitude of a true racing quad. The quarter-liter engine is much punchier than you'd expect and is designed to be ridden hard. Together with the revised geometry of the frame and suspension, the triple hydraulic disc brakes are providing a smooth, predictable ride even on the most unwelcoming terrain, while at the same time being easy to set up for weekends at the dirt track.

Also comes in a homologated version for registration, therefore it can also be used on public roads.

Welcome to the world of sporty ATV performance specs in the "civilian" trim of the 2012 Yamaha YFM700R SE. Built around a sports hybrid aluminium and steel frame, this machine is capable to handle quite a lot of abuse, smoothing out the knocks and bumps, but retaining top-level maneuverability. With fully-adjustable piggyback shocks, this ATV will provide a great adrenaline rush when ridden hard after being set up properly.

The 5-speed+reverse manual transmission, the 2012 Yamaha YFM700R SE is not exactly a beginner's toy, but in the hands of a seasoned rider it can unleash its tremendous potential. For amateur races and thrilling trail rides, this quad is a great way to bring a hefty dose of pure racing spirit in your life.

The Raptor YFM 700R is Yamaha's second generation of the Raptor (first gen being the Raptor 660) and is powered by a 686cc single cylinder four-valve electronically fuel injected engine (approximately 45 hp (35.5 Kw), with electric start and a five-speed manual transmission with a single-speed reverse. With its hybrid aluminium/steel sports chassis, fully adjustable suspension and large-diameter front discs, the remarkable YFM 700R is built to dominate.

The Yamaha YFM350R is a full-size ATV purpose-built to take you to the next level of off-road experience. A 6-speed gearbox (with reverse) puts you in total command of a 348cc 4-stroke engine that combines ample power with incredible reliability. With a powerful and superdurable air-cooled four-stroke single at its heart, the Raptor punches out a super-broad powerband, whether you’re trickling up a gully, play racing round a track or wailing wide open along a fire road.
