2021 Yamaha YFM700R SE Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Yamaha for the atv motorcycle segment, the 2021 Yamaha YFM700R SE utilizes a 686 cc (41.9 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. 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 YFM700R SE measures 192 kg (423 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,280 mm (50.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 11-liter (2.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
