Performance

3-cylinder Genesis 120™ engine
The Genesis 120 engine is compact and lightweight. Its long stroke and four-valve design produces a tremendous amount of torque for corner-to-corner acceleration on the trail. The broad torque curve is easy for clutch tuners to hit and allows riders to have instant power after backshifting. The three-cylinder engine debuted in 2005.

Direct-to-crankshaft clutching
Instead of using a gear reduction, the Genesis 120 engine has the primary clutch directly attached to the crankshaft. This reduces parts, complexity and weight, resulting in a great product for consumers. It also allows the engine to be mounted deeper in the chassis to deliver a lower center of gravity, further enhancing the sled’s cornering stability. The YVXC primary spins at 8500 rpm to transfer power from the engine to the secondary and on to the track.

15x144x1.25-inch Camoplast Rip Saw track
The Camoplast Rip Saw track is widely accepted as the best OEM track available. The 1.25-inch lugs are designed to deliver maximum acceleration, deceleration and cornering bite. It is specifically engineered to be lightweight yet durable, thanks to its unique internal construction. The Rip Saw track was a joint venture between Camoplast and Yamaha.

Rear-exiting exhaust
The exhaust is routed out the back of the sled in order to optimize and maximize airflow through the engine. The tuned system is specifically engineered to produce the Genesis 120’s broad powerband and also to help keep the sled in balance.

Lightweight hydraulic brake system
The lightweight hydraulic brake system delivers solid stopping power and resists fading. It runs strong all day long, thanks to its ventilated design. The brake system also features Yamaha’s exclusive mechanical parking brake for peace of mind while parked on an incline or on the trailer.

Lightweight forged pistons
The forged pistons used in the Genesis 120 engine are engineered for lightweight and still allow high compression rates of 11.3:1 on 87 Octane gas. The piston design came out with the Genesis 120 engine on the Vector™-class sleds.

Handling

Second generation front suspension geometry
The geometry of the second generation front suspension features short spindles and long A-arms. The suspension was engineered to deliver excellent cornering stability and consistent turning effort throughout its travel stroke. It delivers 9 inches of vertical travel and sets the skis at 42.7 inches. Steering is consistent, because the spindles are maintained at a constant 23 degrees.

Gas cell front shocks
The shocks on the RS Venture’s second generation front suspension geometry deliver consistent performance with good fade resistance. They give the RS Venture its nice, plush ride quality.

Ultra-rigid Deltabox™ chassis
The Deltabox chassis is designed specifically to house the Genesis engine family. It supports the engine and utilizes it in forming the most rigid chassis on the market. The more rigid the chassis, the more consistent the sled will handle.

CF die cast construction
Yamaha’s Controlled Flow casting technique is used for many of the structural pieces on the chassis. The CF process draws the molten metal into the mold under a vacuum, reducing the formation of air bubbles in the material. As a result, pieces can be made much thinner and still deliver the strength characteristics of a conventionally cast, thicker piece.

Saddleless plastic skis
The saddleless plastic ski reduces unsprung weight and its aggressive keel design provides strong bite to help the RS Venture corner.

Comfort

ProComfort™ rear suspension
The ProComfort rear suspension is easily adjustable for one or two riders. It uses a simple flip lever to set the torsion spring’s rate. It operates like the ProActive™ in all other aspects of suspension tuning, including the tri-cam preload adjuster and adjustable control rod.

Removable passenger seat
The seat on the RS Venture is very roomy to accommodate two riders in full gear. When solo riding is the order of the day, the passenger section can be removed without tools for added cargo space. The easy adjustable backrest can be repositioned to give the driver a rest on solo runs.

Digitally controlled hand and thumb warmers
The RS Venture’s hand and thumb warmers have been consistently rated among the best in the industry. They are individually-controlled, with the settings shown on the digital gauge so that riders can see them. Owners can choose from ten settings on the grips and ten settings on the thumb warmers, as opposed to the hi/lo settings of most other sleds on the market. The passenger hand grip warmers have a separate on/off switch.

Cargo pad
Instead of a caged rack, the RS Venture offers a small, lightweight cargo pad for carrying a variety of equipment on the back of the sled. Riders need simply to cinch their gear down with a strap to keep it secure.

LCD gauge
The digital gauge on the RS Venture allows the driver to see engine RPM and track speed data at a glance. The gauge also displays heater settings, fuel level, engine temperature and odometer. Yamaha digital gauges have become a benchmark in the industry. The digital readout has been copied by the competition almost across the board.

Tall windshield
The RS Venture is all about comfort, so the windshield is extra large to better protect both driver and passenger from the elements. The RS Venture’s windshield was enlarged for 2006 and measures approximately 0.75 inch taller and 0.25 inch wider than previous models.
