All champions start somewhere. It just so happens that the best
riders of the recent generation of MX and SX heroes started out on
Yamaha's iconic PW50.
James Stewart, Ricky Carmichael and Chad Reed are just three top
riders who owe their illustrious careers to the little 50cc
twostroke, now celebrating its 30th year in production.
You never forget the first time you ride a motorcycle, so it's
certain that Ricky, Bubba and Chad will be raising a glass on the
PeeWee's 30th birthday. Why not give your offspring the chance to
emulate a dirt legend by starting them off on the first dedicated
fun bike?
The PW50 is designed for small riders, with ergonomics to suit.
A fully auto engine lets junior concenrate on the ride and twin
push bike style brake levers are handily located within grasp of
little fingers. An efficient and unbelievably quiet two-stroke
engine powers the little beast and there's a throttle stop limiter
that allows adults to dial in the right amount of power.
Most amazing of all, in those 30 years since its launch, the
PW50 has remained largely unchanged. The 49cc two-stroke engine;
the tough, cast three spoke wheels and the unique duckbill front
end design are all remarkably similar on the 2011 model to the unit
revealed in 1981.
The fact that Yamaha engineers have not significantly changed
the entry level fun bike design is evidence of how right they got
the original PW50.
Today PW50 purchasers can look forward to some great offers when
they place their orders in the lead up to xmas. A free kid's
camping pack including tent, sleeping bag, alu drinks bottle and
backpack valued at $220 is sure to appeal to your little tacker.
And the offer of $200 worth of free gear when you finance with YMF
is too good to pass up.
So head to your nearest participating dealer and make sure your
budding Ricky, Chad or Bubba wakes up to a PW50 under the tree on
xmas morning.
