YFZ50

Feature Benefits

Beginner-Friendly Four-Stroke Performance
The YFZ50™ is engineered as the ideal starting point for aspiring ATV riders aged 6 and up. With a low-maintenance 49cc engine tuned to develop responsive, controllable performance and the combination of engine limiters with a power cut-off tether switch make it easy to allow young riders to adapt to the ATV as their skills grow.
Reduced Maintenance Design
Servicing is simple, too, thanks to features like the toolless quick-access air filter element.
Scaled Down, Not Scaled Back
Single I-arm front suspension is tuned for light, easy steering and comfortable ride quality. The rear swingarm also features a compact single shock for good control and comfort. It also boasts convenient features like a fully automatic CVT transmission and electric start with a back-up kickstart.
Comfortable Chassis
A robust steel frame design incorporates a large 1.5 gallon fuel tank, plush seat and roomy integrated floorboards.
Yamaha Sport ATV DNA
For sporty looks and handling, YFZ50 uses durable Duro® tires on lightweight wheels, with styling unmistakably inspired by the race-ready YFZ450R™

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.

Sporty Chassis
Single I-arm front suspension is tuned for light, easy steering and comfortable ride quality. The rear swingarm also features a compact single shock rear suspension for good control and comfort, and the entire package includes awesome YFZ®-derived sport ATV styling.
Comfortable Accommodations
The YFZ50 is designed to be comfortable and accessible for new ATV riders. With its roomy ergonomics, plush seat and wide floorboards, riders 6 and up won’t outgrow the machine before they’re ready for more displacement when they’re older.
Optimized Tires
Duro® low-profile tires, AT16 x 6.5-7 front and AT16 x 7-7 rear, give YFZ50 aggressive looks and sporty handling.
Secure Stopping Power
For reliable stopping power, three sealed drum brakes bring the YFZ50 to a secure stop. There’s a handlebar-mounted parking brake, too.

Modern, Reliable Electronics
The CDI system means reliable ignition performance, with a strong, efficient spark, and a sealed, maintenance-free battery gives worry-free service.
Yamaha Sport ATV DNA
The YFZ50 offers the same sporty looks as the rest of the YFZ family for an exciting sport ATV style.
