Low seat height and user-friendly controls
With its low seat height of only 475mm and a comfortable and relaxed riding position, new riders will feel instantly confident on the PW50. The handlebar layout is similar to a bicycle's, with the rear brake operated by the left hand and the front brake by the right – making it easy for the youngest beginners. Just twist the throttle and the fun begins!

Lightweight handling and compact dimensions
Weighing just 41kg, the PW50 is the lightest and most compact mini-bike in the Yamaha range. Equipped with grippy 10inch tyres at the front and rear, and with 60mm front suspension travel and 50mm rear travel, the compact chassis delivers easy and agile handling – making this mini motorcycle the ideal introduction to off road riding.

Separate 2-stroke oil tank
To make ownership easy and minimize routine chores, the PW50 features a separate 2-stroke oil tank mounted behind the front number plate that carries 300cc of lubricant – enough for multiple tanks of fuel. Its see-through plastic body makes it easy to keep an eye on the level, and this system means that you can use ‘straight’ non-premix fuel in the petrol tank.

Strong 3-spoke steel wheels
Although it weighs only 41 kg, this is a tough little motorcycle is designed to deliver many years of fun. Its 3-spoke 10-inch steel wheels are strong and easy to clean – and for plenty of grip, the PW50 runs on chunky 2.5 inch wide off road tyres.

Light and strong motocross-style bodywork
The PW50 may be the smallest bike in the Yamaha Off Road line-up, but it still comes with all the style and good looks of the larger YZ race bikes. Manufactured from tough and lightweight polypropylene, the Icon Blue fuel tank, sidepanels and fenders feature race-inspired graphics.
