2024 Yamaha Mountain Max LE 154

The Mountain Max 154 provides the perfect balance of power, handling and deep snow traction. Its new 2.6-inch-deep track features reinforced curved lugs for added strength and performance in heavy powder snow while its 154-inch length aids manoeuvrability for carving and directional change regardless of the slope.

Features may include:

• The 794cc twin-cylinder, two-stroke engine features ECM controlled, batteryless fuel injection with electronic oil injection. Three-stage auxiliary exhaust port power-valves control the gas flow into a tuned pipe with stainless exhaust collector and silencer. An Exhaust Pipe Temperature Sensor (EPTS) monitors the system. Spark ignition is generated through a digital CDI with knock control sensor and cooling achieved through a liquid heat exchanger system. Electric start is standard.

• Fox 1.5 Zero QS3 coil-spring, high-pressure gas shocks feature a piggyback chamber to deliver reduced fading, exceptional control, and three easy-to-adjust compression damping performance settings, so you can quickly and easily adjust the ride to conditions and your riding preference.

• This 154-inch long, single-ply, PowerClaw track uses 2.6-inch lugs in a 2.86-inch pitch configuration. The forward curved, slightly stouter paddles are preferred when the powder is heavier to resist folding, providing the lift you need to stay on top. The 154-inch profile provides back-country agility with a good balance of lightweight float and maneuverability.

• The sleek SRV-M Front Suspension is ultra-compact to reduce unwanted spindle and suspension component drag in deep snow. The narrow stance allows for extreme maneuverability and delivers aggressive lean angles for incredible side-hilling and powder turn capabilities. The lightweight, forged aluminum spindles join the widely spaced upper and lower control arms producing a large caster angle for tight side-hilling and ease of steering. The clean, narrow overall stance and elimination of the sway bar also greatly enhances deep snow agility.

• The 10.6-gallon / 40.1-litre tank provides plenty of fuel capacity.

• Lightweight with a tall and narrow profile, the M-TX mountain seat is both shorter and more tapered towards the front than our standard trail seat. This allows for easier rider transitions from side-to-side, and improved stand-up ergonomics.
