YFM90R - Raptor
All new 90cc Raptor for the kids
Yamaha has released a new model Raptor with plenty of great features aimed to get youngsters on all fours safely.
The new-from-the-ground-up Raptor 90 features a new 88cc SOHC wet sump engine mated to a fully automatic CVT transmission.
And
it comes with the peace-of-mind safety features that you would expect
form Yamaha, such as a throttle limiter that allows you to adjust the
YFM90R’s acceleration and top speed to suit your kid’s ability level.
And
a parking brake on the handlebar to keep the new Raptor exactly where
they last left it. It’s thinking like this that makes YFM90R the kids’
ATV that adults love too.
Raptor 90 also features dual A-Arm
front suspension, rear disc brake, full floorboards and low profile
Maxxis tyres. Final drive is by heavy duty 520 chain.
Small
enough for any 12 year old to handle, but big in features and ability,
this electric start ATV has all the ‘use it, forget it, use it again’
low-maintenance convenience that kids (and parents) love so much.
Of
course, being a Yamaha, as much thought has gone into taking the stress
out of your life as packing the YFM90R with great experience-building
features. Like the throttle limiter that features a simple plug-in for
the CDI unit. Or the emergency kick starter unit stored under the seat
for added peace of mind.
Shock absorbers are five-way
adjustable for preload and there’s a combination of dual drum brakes up
front and a powerful disc brake out back.
Raptor 90 comes in the classic Yamaha Blue and a unique White version, new for 2010.
They’ll be rapt with the new Raptor!

YFM90R Raptor key features:
|
- All-new from the ground up,
Raptor 90 has the features to deliver more fun than ever before, with a
new 88cc SOHC 2-valve engine tuned to develop excellent low-to-mid rpm
range performance. It also has features surprising in this class and
price range, like a fully automatic CVT transmission, dual A-arm front
suspension, rear disc brake, low-profile tyres, and styling unmistakably
inspired by the mighty Raptor 700R.
- Dual A-arm front suspension has 112mm
of travel for sporty-riding comfort, while adding to the Raptor 90’s
big-ATV look. Shocks have 5-way preload adjustment to accommodate a
variety of riders and terrain. The rear swingarm, also 5-way preload
adjustable, offers 84mm of travel.
- For sporty looks and handling,
Raptor 90 uses low-profile Maxxis® tyres. For riding comfort, there are
safe full floorboards.
- For strong, reliable stopping
power, there’s a hydraulic disc brake with drilled rotor in the back,
and dual sealed drums in the front.
- Restricting power output for learning
riders is exceptionally convenient; there’s a simple plug-in for the CDI
unit.
- Available in the classic Team Yamaha
Blue/White, just like full-size ATVs, or in an exclusive White
version - new in 2010.

Engine:
|
- The go-getter 88cc 4-stroke SOHC
2-valve engine is tuned to develop excellent low-to-mid-range
performance, just where it’s needed. Engine is force-air cooled for
performance and long engine life, and it uses simple, reliable wet-sump
lubrication.
- Easy-to-operate electric starting
comes standard, of course, and an emergency kick starter is also
provided in a storage spot under the seat for more peace of mind.
- Constantly variable transmission
(CVT) means no shifting. Handy for all riders, it’s a feature entry-level
riders particularly appreciate.
- Engine power is transferred to
the rear wheels via a tried-and true chain drive.

Chassis/suspension:
|
- Dual A-arm front suspension has 112mm
of travel for sporty riding comfort, while helping to give the front end
the look of a big Raptor. Shocks have 5-way preload adjustment to
accommodate a variety of riders and terrain. The rear swingarm, also
5-way preload adjustable, offers 84mm of travel to enhance riding
comfort and traction.
- Raptor 90 is designed to be comfortable
for a wide variety of riders. With its roomy ergonomics, growing riders
12 and older won’t outgrow the machine before they’re ready for more
displacement when they’re older.
- Newly designed Maxxis®
low-profile tyres, AT18 x 7-8 front and AT18 x 9-8 rear, give Raptor 90
sporty looks and sporty handling.
- For strong, reliable stopping
power, there’s a hydraulic disc brake in the back with a drilled rotor
that’s protected against rocks and other obstacles by a beefy guard. Up
front, there are dual sealed drums. There’s a handlebar-mounted parking
brake, too.

Additional features:
|
- The DC-CDI digital ignition
timing control system means reliable performance, with a strong,
efficient spark.
- Battery and other electrical components
are conveniently and centrally located for service. Waterproof
connectors add to the overall reliability.
