Doug Henry merely drove home the point by winning the '98 National Outdoor .title. Well, get ready to have your world rocked-again. Introducing the new, morepowerful-than-ever YZ426F. First off, we've rebored that revolutionary ultrashort-stroke, liquid-cooled, 5-valve thumper and retooled the piston and crankshaft. Dropped in a brand-new 39mm Keihin flat-slide FeR carb with throttle position sensor (TPS) and a newly integrated hot-start button. Fitted a works-style clutch lever with an allnew race-spec barrel adjuster. Reshaped the silencer. And tweaked first-and second-gear ratios while beefing up clutch capacity with larger, stronge r plates. The result? Try a sharp boost in power and throttle response and a broad, flat torque-band that spells instant hook-up for you - and instant headaches for anyone in your wake. A new subframe and aluminum suspension internals shave weight, and we've repositioned the steering head pipe to create a more compact wheelbase for lighter feel. Greater power. Lighter chassis. Smoother suspens ion. Quicker steering. A new revolution has begun. Enfield Motor Sports 27 Pa lomba Drive Enfield, CT 06082 GEORGIA (860)741-2173 Yam aha Of Dalton SYD Race Team 205 M.L. King)r.
