2022 Yamaha Motocross

Piccole modifiche ai quattro tempi e una quantità sorprendente di nuove cose sulla YZ125!

Sembra che le Yamaha YZ 2022 siano arrivateeee!

La 2022 YZ250F e YZ450F hanno una ruota posteriore più snella e una trasmissione mirata a ridurre le masse non sospese, con modifiche alle sospensioni da abbinare. Sorprendentemente, Yamaha ha anche apportato un sacco di modifiche alla YZ125, tra cui un propulsore per lo più nuovo, una nuova estetica, nuove impostazioni delle sospensioni e altro ancora. L’unico componente importante che non sembra essere cambiato è il telaio. Anche la YZ250 del 2022 ritorna con modifiche, anche se non tante quanto la YZ125. Il motore della YZ250 sembra essere lasciato in pace, ma viene aggiornata l’estetica con nuove plastiche e una nuova sella insieme alla stessa ruota posteriore leggera e modifiche alla trasmissione viste sui quattro tempi. C’è anche una nuova YZ85LW (ruota grande) e una YZ85 aggiornata, entrambe con nuova linea, telai ausiliari in alluminio e una serie di altri perfezionamenti. Infine, tutte e quattro le YZ a grandezza naturale (YZ250F, YZ450F, YZ125 e YZ250) sono ora offerte nella versione Monster Energy con la grafica ad artiglio verde.

Molti dettagli e video li trovate sotto in versione inglese, appena possibile aggiorneremo con comunicati in italiano!!!

New wider rear rim, with a new spoke pattern, lighter rear hub, and lighter final drive components.

Fresh off dominating the 2021 Supercross season, the new 2022 Yamaha YZ250F sees a handful of key updates to make the benchmark-setting motocrosser even better. Beginning with the rear wheel, a new 2.15-inch wide rear rim pairs with a premium 110-width Dunlop® Geomax MX33 tire to serve up a wider footprint, increased traction and better bump absorption under hard acceleration and cornering. In a first on a Yamaha off-road competition model, a new three-cross spoke pattern on the rear wheel further improves impact absorption and overall feel. The rear wheel hub has been reengineered to be thinner and lighter while still retaining strength. Together with a new lightweight rear sprocket design and new lightweight drive chain, unsprung weight and driveline inertia is reduced for more responsive handling. 

The YZ250F’s class-leading suspension takes another step forward with revised suspension settings aimed at striking the perfect balance between the wider rear tire and lightened rear wheel assembly. That means increased stability on corner entry/exit and improved bump reaction, further enhancing the game-changing performance of the YZ250F’s advanced, fully adjustable KYB® suspension. Also new for 2022, an updated premium graphics scheme features aggressive Yamaha Blue and dark blue embedded graphics, both highlighting the YZ’s competitive intentions and providing excellent durability and scratch resistance. Blacked-out radiator louvers further add to the aggressive new look.

Updates add to the long list of race-ready features that make the YZ250F a consistent top pick in the ultra-competitive 250cc class. The advanced liquid-cooled four-stroke powerplant features a forward-positioned straight downdraft intake with symmetrical intake ports, high-spec piston, aggressive cam profiles and reversed cylinder head layout, providing broad, useable powerband and class-leading low-end and mid-range torque. Helping racers dial in the perfect power delivery for different track conditions, Yamaha’s industry-leading free-of-charge Power Tuner app puts the flexibility and precision tunability of the GYTR® Power Tuner into your smartphone. Make fueling and ignition timing changes instantly and upload them to the bike for ultimate track-side tuning. A convenient handlebar-mounted map switch then allows the rider to quickly select between two uploaded maps for immediate on-the-fly adjustments. 

The YZ250F’s highly refined chassis is based on a lightweight aluminum bilateral beam frame with main spars, engine mounts and mounting position designed to centralize mass and provide an ideal balance between cornering feel and straight-line rigidity. Exceptional braking power and feel is achieved through the same high performance braking components fitted to its open-class YZ450F sibling. It all adds up to an extremely capable and well-rounded package that gives racers the edge right out of the gate.

2022 Yamaha YZ125

The new 2022 YZ125 represents an important evolution in Yamaha’s two-stroke lineage. As the first full model change to the iconic YZ125 in more than 15 years, Yamaha designers and engineers put considerable thought into developing a motorcycle that would be both dominant on the racetrack and user-friendly for developing riders looking to bridge the gap between recreation riding and competitive motocross. The result is a significantly better YZ125.
