2024 Yamaha SXVenom

The Venom is a lightweight snowmobile aimed at young, new and returning riders. The fuel-injected, two-stroke 397cc single-cylinder engine features electric start and is propelled by a 121-inch Camso Hacksaw track. Long-travel 'Dual Shock' rear suspension, lightweight alloy chassis, Stryke single-keel ski and racy styling combine to create a compact sled that bristles with excitement at a very attractive price.

Features may include:

• A simple push of a button causes the engine to restart in reverse. The audible 'back-up' beeper indicates the reverse system is engaged and continues to beep until the button is pushed again to restart the engine in its forward direction. A simple, lightweight and efficient way to back out of a tight situation.

• Standard handlebar and throttle lever warmers are included.

• The large 11.7-gallon / 44-liter fuel capacity coupled with the frugal demand of the mid-sized, EFI engine, means extended operating range.

• Turnkey electric starter combined with electronic fuel injection provides quick and reliable ignition in all conditions.

• The four-inch 'race' screen is just enough to deflect the snow away from the console.

• The seat design offers mobility for aggressive cornering, transitioning through the bumps and comfort for the long haul.

• Almost a thing of the past, having a modern snowmobile with the weight of a 30-year-old fan-cooled sled opens the door for a whole new era in snowmobiling function and fun.

• The lightweight running boards are designed to shed snow and are serrated to give good hold when standing for confident maneuverability.

• Derived from the sleek SRV-M front suspension, this new lightweight design is ultra-compact to reduce unwanted spindle and suspension component drag in deep snow. The neutral stance allows for great maneuverability in tight terrain along with predictable manners on the trail. The lightweight, forged aluminum spindles join the widely spaced upper and lower control arms producing a large caster angle for tight turning and ease of steering.

• The 4.5-inch riser block positions the hooked end bars within easy reach whether seated or standing.

• The compact power plant weighs in under 50 pounds packing a mighty punch with its class leading horsepower-to-weight ratio.

• With alloy bulkhead and tunnel heat exchangers, the engine stays cool when things heat up.

• The strong Hayes hydraulic 'Stealth' brake master-cylinder is equipped with a composite Stealth brake lever and lightweight caliper to provide great modulation for better feel and powerful stopping performance.

• Electronic fuel injection provides efficient fuel delivery to the cylinder based on engine RPM for maximum torque and response. The computerized fuel injection ensures reliable cold weather starting, maximum fuel range with low exhaust gas emissions.

• The CVTech Trail Bloc drive clutch and Invance driven clutch provides reliable, low temperature operation with wide-ratio performance. The small diameter main bearing allows the belt to sit lower in the primary for a super low first gear. This also creates a wider ratio transmission through the secondary pulley to efficiently pull every pony out of the compact engine.
