2023 Yamaha Transporter Lite

2023 Yamaha Transporter Lite

The Yamaha Transporter Lite is the affordable and maneuverable two-stroke utility snowmobile you can count on. Mountain skis, 146 Camso Cobra track with 1.6-inch lug, rugged rear rack and a compact fuel-injected, electric start 397cc two-stroke make the Transporter Lite as convenient as it is practical. The smaller size and lightweight of the Transporter Lite make it ideal for getting into tight places deep off the trail.

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 adjustable handlebar and throttle lever warmers are included.

• The large 10.6-gallon / 40.1-liter fuel capacity coupled with the frugal demand of the mid-sized, EFI engine, means extended operating range for the Transporter.

• The power valve system tunes the exhaust port opening based on RPM to ensure maximum torque and fuel efficiency across the power band.

• Electronic fuel injection provides efficient fuel delivery into 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 strong Hayes hydraulic 'Stealth' brake master-cylinder is equipped with a composite 'Stealth' brake lever to provide great modulation for better feel and powerful stopping performance.

• The lightweight Yamaha Mountain Ski delivers everything you want in a deep snow ski. Its seven-inch-wide footprint enhances flotation and actively lifts the sled’s nose up on plane in deep powder. Traction lugs on the top of the ski give you a sure foothold when the situation gets really gnarly. The single keel design delivers light steering effort, yet confident and predictable handling on hard pack and in fresh fluff.

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

• Derived from the sleek SRV-M front suspension, this lightweight design is ultra-compact to reduce unwanted spindle and suspension component drag in deep snow. The 38-inch stance allows for great maneuverability in tight terrain. 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.
