Even though the RS Vector gets some of the best fuel economy in the business, it still runs best on the cheapo regular octane fuel. With the RS Vector, you'll find more of your casual rides becoming epic journeys.

GENESIS 120
The smooth-running 120hp-class Genesis 120 triple has proven itself one of the most reliable engines in all of the sport. Its broad power curve and excellent fuel economy have earned the engine a strong following among high-mileage enthusiasts. Competitive 2-stroke engines fall off as soon as they achieve their peak horsepower. The Genesis 120 keeps pulling hard once it gets into the peak performance zone.

SERIOUS POWER
The horsepower of the Genesis 120 offers broad, consistent torque that only a four stroke delivers. A wide range of performance; perfect whether you're a trail or rough rider. 12 valves and double overhead cams for smooth drive-away power. All day reliability. Power reserve for back country powder. Quick response torque for the twisties.

APEX CHASSIS AND RIDING POSITION
Built on the award-winning, lightweight and nimble Deltabox II chassis, is designed to handle it. The race-proven platform delivers lightning-quick response from rider inputs, whether you're blasting down the twisty trail or picking your way through an untracked tamarack swamp.

LESS WEIGHT
Compact design. Lightweight magnesium, titanium and aluminum components enhance performance and reliability. Weight-saving forged pistons maximize compression and give you more power per pound. It's no wonder. Yamaha has engineered more four-strokes than all other snowmobile manufacturers combined.

SERIOUS SAVINGS
Yamaha four strokes offer serious advantages in performance, reliability and fuel and oil efficiency. They're engineered to let you master the snow whether you ride hundreds of miles of groomed trails a day, seek out big moguls, or cruise with the family. They offer serious advantages for serious riders who don't want to waste money on expensive-to-operate two strokes.

SUSPENSION: MONO-SHOCK RA
The Mono RA lets you easily dial in all combinations of comfort. Twist the remote adjuster knob to fine-tune according to rider weight and riding style. Simple. Precise.

MORE EFFICIENT
Fifty years of advanced engineering technology means Yamaha four strokes enjoy miles-per-gallon advantages, fewer fuel stops, cleaner combustion, no two stroke odour. With fuel prices reaching record highs, Yamaha's four-stroke advantages are clear. And Yamaha four strokes can't be matched for consistent reliable performance.

GYTR DUAL-CLICKER SHOCKS
Lightweight premium GYTR dual-clicker shocks offer riders the highest level of tunability on the market with 12 clicks of compression AND 20 clicks of rebound damping. Large, glove-friendly knobs make adjustments easy. The piggyback reservoir gives the shock increased fade resistance in periods of intense use.

ELECTRIC START
Every Yamaha snowmobile comes standard with electric start. Shouldn't every so-called high-tech new sled in the 21st century?

REVERSE
Select reverse for easy off-loading. Or when someone parks in front of you. Standard added value on Rage and Vector GT / ER
