You'll ride harder, faster and longer on the Apex®... and you'll feel great!
Standard Features May Include:
PerformanceThe Top Performance 4-cylinder Genesis engine remains the best combination of pure power and rock-solid reliability. Throw in excellent fuel efficiency, low emissions, and no need for pre-mix oil and it’s easy to see why the Yamaha 4-cylinder Genesis is the most complete engine on snow.
The intake tract on the Apex is 11mm long which maximizes air intake and betters performance. The engine utilizes the pressure waves in the intake tubes as well as the airbox to boost airflow and maximize high RPM performance.
The distance between the throttle valve and intake valve is designed for optimum fuel delivery. The 4-hole injector on the throttle body creates a spray of finely atomized fuel, with droplets of just tenths of a micron in size. The spray is aimed directly at the intake valve skirt for maximum efficiency and performance. The result - Unmatched throttle response and power.
HandlingIndustry-exclusive electric power steering system is velocity sensitive, delivering maximum assist up to trail speed, and gradually tapering off from there. You'll love the EPS system because it helps isolate the rider from uncomfortable trail feedback, eases the effort required to move the bars, and provides excellent handling and predictability.
The Tuner dual-keel ski greatly contributes to the Apex’s modest, but aggressive trail character. The dual keels keep the ski tracking straight and true down the trail, eliminating nosiness and darting. Each keel has its own wearbar, and Yamaha has four different bar configurations to choose from, which means you can tune your sled's cornering bite and steering effort to suit your personal preference.
The 15mm trail offset on the ski mount help minimize inside ski lift due to centrifugal force during turns. This offset helps the Apex achieve its amazingly smooth handling and straight line performance.
ComfortThe Mono Shock II RA 128 rear suspension uses a single shock to control the travel of the skid. The shock is remotely adjustable via a rotating dial located conveniently on the left side of the tunnel, near the driver’s leg. The suspension is widely adjustable to suit most riders in nearly any condition. In addition to the remote adjustment, the Mono Shock II RA 128 is also adjustable at the coil spring and at the control rod. This trouble-free suspension can handle trail bumps with ease.
The Apex's seat raises the rider’s hips approximately 2 inches for all-day trail riding comfort. The seat has a roomy storage trunk in the rear and is large enough to hold a couple water bottles and spare gloves.
The 40mm High Pressure Gas (HPG) shocks on the Apex's third generation front suspension geometry deliver consistent performance with excellent fade resistance.
