Yamaha RS Vector EPS – 9000kms 2016

Conquer Snow

For all the accolades the Vector has received over the years, there wasn’t much said about its off-trail capability. Until now. The X-TX 1.75 LE with Camoplast Back Country track is much more adept when off-trail. A litany of refinements are included, like Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle engine management system and new ‘Single Shot’ air rear to go along with existing technology like Electric Power Steering. Throw in Spring Power Surge only options like factory-installed Performance Damper, The Vector is now even more versatile, and that’s bad news for the competition.

Advanced Fuel Injection
Yamaha’s advanced fuel injection system controls fuel flow to the engine. Enjoy the engine’s hassle-free, spot-on performance and throttle response as a result of the advanced electronic fuel injection system.
Engine Braking Reduction System
The system allows a small amount of air to pass through the fuel injection system when the throttle is released, giving riders a smooth “coast” feeling when they release the throttle.
TUNER SKIS
The addition of Yamaha’s acclaimed Tuner Dual Keel skis greatly reduce darting and offer a wide range of carbide set-up options, from mild to aggressive pattern.
Instrumentation
The digital gauge displays a wide variety of data, with standard readouts such as speed, engine RPM, dual trip meters and a clock, this gauge also has an oil trip readout which tracks when it’s time for an oil change and fuel trip readout which displays how many miles you’ve gone since the fuel light came on.
Dual DC Outlets
One outlet is automotive-style outlet for cell phones, GPS or other electronic accessories, while the other is an RCA-style plug for heated helmet visors or other small-plug accessories.
Deltabox II Chassis
The primary design objective of the Deltabox II chassis was to create a comfortable rider-forward posture. The ergonomic treatment is achieved by locating the handlebars and seated position high and forward on the chassis. With this positioning, the rider can go from sitting to standing and back again easily and comfortably. It also further centralizes the combined mass of sled and driver, for razor-sharp handling.
WINDSHIELD
Windshield, similar to that found on our acclaimed Apex, offers more protection from the elements while maintaining light weight.
