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-stro ke, 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, stronger 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 suspension . Quicker steering. A new revolution has begun. New England Cycle Center 73 Leibert Rd.
