Looks like no EFI this year for the YFZ.
no i dont think there will be. im pretty sure they did some changes to the the head though. and they changed the seat. also as you can see the protapers and drille dout brake rotar.
they do major changes every 2 years i beleive.
Ahhh i cant wait!
ok they are out....but am i the only 1 having problems when clicking gallery? it keeps taking me to the wr 450r ???
Same here, must be a bug. Idk if i like that yfz, I think i do, still thinking, that black rap 700 is nice though
the special eddition yfz looks awsome with the blue frame!!!!!!
i think yamaha made a big mistake with that special editon yfz....flames? black rims? black bumper? ew no thanks :-\ but the yzf250 and 450 dirt bikes look good, the white and silver plastics are nice ;D

you see them rezzies? that thing looks sweet!
i dont really like the "new" lineup since all they got was some cosmetic upgrades and shocks and they did not do anything to keep the blaster in the lineup but i guess everyone likes the look of the raptors since yamaha has made everyone of their atvs with that look but anyway long live two strokes thanks to the emission hippies

the dirt bikes have white plastics. thats prety cool ;D
ya im liking that...and yfz has crome a arms...snazy :P
Wow....
Bold New Graphics and some Handle Bars and a few other doo dads...
You'd think that they'd have F.I.....I mean it took Zuk 6 yrs to come out w/ it..maybe Honda/Yamaha will take a few more years...
Wonder when they will all get aluminum frames....
Boy i wish there was a quad built with EFI and Aluminum frame....
Oh wait....there was 4yrs ago.....haha
Anywho.props to Yamaha for finally putting a set of REAL Bars on a bike and not the throw away stockers

see they are finally starting to think like they do for the dirt bikes..... :P
anybody see the S.E raptor 700 and 350.....now dont tell me that looks good :-\ orange and black? who are they ktm :D
what about the high AND low speed compression on the shocks. :o
sounds like yamaha is aiming for the more "race ready" quad....cant wait to see whats in store for 08, wow that feels weird to say :P
I bet the Ute riders will like the new 700 EFI grizzly.. Even though I think it looks like crap in the front end.
i was having the same problem with the gallery not working and kept going to the yzf 250.
350 IRS with Diff-lock. Woah, awesome. And Electric Power Steering too on the 700. I saw that on Hondas website too the other day. So I guess that'll be the next big thing for comfort.
The new Grizzly has an evil look to it , but the front end reminds me of a Polunkis....700 EFI is nice , and it seems the Radiator is bigger an placed higher..which is a bonus...but Electric Power Steering?....Not something I would care to have , that Servo for the 4WD/Difflock worries me enough.
That Black / Copper Raptor 700r is bad as hell. I would trade mine in but I have too much invested on my white one. No biggy.

I think the power steering would make it alot easier for steering when in 4wd. I'll wait for Honda to come out with it though prolly.. Man this feels like christmas.. I want one!!

no need to trade your's in just sell your plastics and buy the new ones.

I am sure it would be easier , but it would stink not being able to ride because your power steering is out....LOL...Too many things to break...I say keep it simple.
I would think they'd design it in a way where if the Power steering went out you'd be able to steer normally.

Yeah ... not a bad idea.
Man I can't beleive they didn't changed anything on the YFZ ??? No EFI thats weird and it's still stock width, same tires.
The 2008 YFZ will be a killer ;) Im saving up for the '08 :N
Dang Kory has his 07 all ready :o Man is it awsome to be a factory rider ::)
no he doesnt its not in producton yet so he cant race it. ;)
Factory support>Paying for yourself..
When is Yamaha going to make a two seater? I would love to buy another Yamaha but because they do not have a two seater I'll have to get the Bombardier Outlander. The way the State is going with inforcing rules and laws it won't be long before you will not be allowed to tow anyone unless it's made to do it.
