2007 Yamaha PW50

Right size for big smiles.

The scrappy PW50 is the rugged little motorcycle that’s taught thousands of riders the Code of Moto. Safety, confidence and convenience are standard features. Just wait till you see those smiles.

To introduce your little ones to the fun and excitement of off road riding, there’s no better machine than the PW50.

In fact, this lightweight, easy-riding bike is one of the industry’s best-selling minis. An air-cooled, 49cc 2-stroke gives you single-speed power that’s super reliable and easy to control. Just gas it and go. A removable, power-limiting exhaust restrictor allows parents or adult supervisors to increase power output as a rider’s skill level improves. When learning’s this much fun, they’ll really apply themselves!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Adult supervision and proper protective riding gear, including a helmet, are a must when a youngster is operating a PW50.
