At the heart of the 2016 Yamaha Raptor 700 atv motorcycle, Yamaha pairs a 686 cc (41.9 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 102.0 x 84.0 mm (4.0 x 3.3 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Raptor 700 measures 191.4 kg (422 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 813 mm (32 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,280 mm (50.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10.98-liter (2.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
