- High Performance 4-stroke engine
The over-achieving High Performance engine is the heart of our lightweight, high performance and aggressive FX Nytro model family. It has dominated its class at the Old Forge Shoot-Out 2 years straight, claiming top speed twice and posting the best average ET over 4 runs down the ¼-mile track. - Advanced fuel injection
The High Performance engine uses Yamaha’s advanced fuel injection system to control fuel flow to the engine. Consumers will enjoy the engine’s spot-on performance and throttle response as a result of the advanced electronic fuel injection system. - Engine Braking Reduction System
The High Performance engine features the unique 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 “coast” feeling. - Lightweight rear-exiting exhaust
The patented rear exit design serves many performance-enhancing functions on the FX Nytro. First, it maximizes horsepower by using a straight exhaust pipe design. Second, it reduces the amount of under-hood heat produced. Third, the rear-exiting design distributes weight to contribute to the excellent balance of the sled. - Forced air radiator ducting
The FX Nytro’s airflow design pulls fresh air in from around the headlight and forces it through the radiator fins for high cooling capacity, resulting in consistent engine performance even in low-snow conditions. - 15 x 121 x 1.25-inch Camoplast® Rip Saw™ track
The Camoplast® Rip Saw™ track is a standard feature on the FX Nytro. It has been widely acclaimed in the industry as the best all-around OEM track for acceleration, cornering bite and everyday trail usage. The Rip Saw™ track development is the result of a collaborative effort between Yamaha and Camoplast®.
- FXG2 front suspension geometry
The FX Nytro features the acclaimed FXG2 front suspension with more trail and relaxed caster for crisp steering response and confidence-inspiring, flat handling in the corners and through the rough trail. - New trail ski
The Nytro receives the same ski upgrade that the Apex received last year. These skis have great cornering agility and reduce hunting and darting. - FX™ chassis with sport rider-forward position
The compact design puts the engine down low and back in the chassis, leaving the top of the cab open for airflow. This gives the FX Nytro a very centralized mass. The FX Nytro’s sport rider-forward ergonomic design puts the rider in an aggressive, yet comfortable, forward posture. - Over-the-engine steering
The snocross-proven over-the-engine steering configuration gives the rider excellent posture on the sled. It also allows the engine to be tucked deep into the chassis for optimum balance and mass centralization. - Tall, hooked bars
To match the tall and forward position, a single-piece, dual-hooked handlebar is standard fare on the FX Nytro. The hooks have the same grip material as the main bar section, for consistent control, regardless of hand position on the grip. - Composite upper skeleton
The headlight assembly and upper portion of the FX Nytro is supported by a super-lightweight composite framework. By using a rugged, high tech composite material as the structure for the top portion of the sled, Yamaha engineers were able to keep the mass centered low and deep in the chassis. - Lightweight tunnel
The FX Nytro features a lightweight tunnel design. With the runningboards tipped up at an aggressive 11-degree angle, the FX Nytro delivers big ground clearance for rough trail capability. The new design also features large snow evacuation and boot gripper punch outs. The lightweight tunnel was developed on the Pro Open snocross race sled.
- Dual Shock™ CK rear suspension
The race-proven Dual Shock CK rear suspension is the culmination of four years of development, testing, racing and redevelopment to produce the ultimate big bump rear suspension. The FX Nytro’s rear suspension is engineered to handle the deep pits and big moguls you’ll find in the ditches and trails. The rear shock uses a compression-adjusting clicker on its remote reservoir to allow owners to tune the setup to their liking. In addition to this, the FX Nytro receives a new rear-rear shock calibration providing more rider comfort while still maintaining its rough trail performance. - 40mm compression-adjusting clicker shock
The Dual Shock CK rear suspension is fitted with a 40mm HPG shock with a remote reservoir and compression clicker on the rear arm and an aluminum-body HPG shock on the front arm. The shocks’ 14mm rods are very rugged for rough trail usage. The clicker shock allows owners to dial in their rear suspension to their liking. - GYTR™ dual-clicker front 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. - Wheels with removable bearings
Replaceable bearing wheels makes maintenance easy and cheap, while the 6 spoke design adds to the visual appeal of the already super cool looking Nytro. This design is implemented on all rear wheels. - New sculpted narrow seat
The FX Nytro has a narrow seat for added comfort. In addition to putting the rider in a tall, forward, attack posture, the seat’s height makes it plush and comfortable for a full day of riding. The narrow seat sits atop the beveled tunnel, which allows the track to be a traditional 15 inches wide, to maximize traction. In addition, a new seat cover material has been incorporated this year for added comfort and durability. The seat foam has been improved as well with anti-sagging properties. - Concentrated hand warmers
These hand warmers have a concentrated element design, which focuses the heat in the middle of the grip material. The result is a warm grip for your hand’s most comfortable riding position. In addition, an insulator is placed between the heating element and handlebar to retain heat longer and more efficiently than previous designs. - Standard electric start
Yamaha’s electric starter system allows consumers to fire up their Nytro with the turn of a key. There is no pulling on a nylon cord to get this high-tech engine growling! Electric start is a standard feature on all of Yamaha’s 4-stroke machines. - Digital gauge
The digital gauge displays key information at a glance. Vehicle speed is displayed on a large LCD readout either in miles or kilometers per hour. In addition, the rider can select tachometer, odometer or tripmeter data to appear on the secondary readout. The gauge also displays system warning lights, fuel level, and warmer intensity. - Standard mechanical reverse
The Nytro’s simple reverse system allows riders to back out of tight spaces hassle-free. It’s engaged with the lever located on the right shroud. Just pull out the lever and slide it to the right for quick and easy use. - Quick-release, single-piece hood/console shroud
The FX Nytro has a single-piece hood and console shroud. The design allows owners to open and close the top portion of the sled easily with Dzus® quick-connect fasteners. - New graphic packages
The FX Nytro comes in a new graphic package; Yamaha blue/white. This awesome design produces one of the best looking sleds on the snow.
