Is Zhuzhou Yamaha a Genuine Yamaha Product?
1 Answers
Zhuzhou Yamaha is an authentic Yamaha product, belonging to the Yamaha brand alongside Linhai and Jianshe. The latest Yamaha model is equipped with a 1679CC water-cooled 65-degree V4 engine, featuring four valves per cylinder and incorporating Yamaha's patented technologies: YCC electronic throttle control (including electronically controlled intake) and a five-speed transmission gearbox. It delivers a maximum power output of 147 kilowatts, with horsepower exceeding approximately 200. Yamaha motorcycles produced after the 2008 model year feature dual instrument panels. The main dashboard displays speed, RPM, and ABS indicators, while the smaller gauge on the fuel tank shows fuel level, total mileage, trip mileage (including time), and comes with an onboard tool kit. The most distinctive feature of Yamaha is its secondary acceleration system with V4 functionality: V-BOOST (V-type boost). V-BOOST operates by adding an extra set of butterfly valves to the throttle body after the main throttle opens. This design ensures that only two cylinders (specifically cylinder 1 and 3) operate when RPM remains below 5,700. When exceeding 5,700 RPM, the butterfly valves gradually open, reaching full activation at 8,000 RPM, at which point all four cylinders operate simultaneously.
