Review
The 2026 Yamaha YZ85LW is a high-performance racing machine engineered to bridge the gap for youth motocross riders moving toward full-sized bikes. At its core lies an 85cc liquid-cooled 2-stroke engine featuring Yamaha's proprietary YPVS (Yamaha Power Valve System). This technology ensures a broad and tractable powerband across the entire RPM range, providing holeshot-winning acceleration without sacrificing top-end power. The 'LW' (Large Wheel) designation signifies the 19-inch front and 16-inch rear wheel setup, which offers improved stability and better ergonomics for taller junior riders compared to the standard YZ85. The chassis features a semi-double-cradle frame paired with premium, fully adjustable 36mm KYB inverted forks and a KYB rear shock, offering 10.8 inches and 11.3 inches of travel respectively. This suspension setup is designed to handle the most demanding track conditions and jumps. With a wet weight of just 75 kg, the bike remains incredibly agile and responsive. For 2026, it continues to sport the legendary Team Yamaha Blue color scheme with embedded graphics for maximum durability against scratches and wear. It is a true competition-ready bike for the next generation of champions.
