Performance
  • High Performance 4-stroke engine
    The over-achieving High Performance engine is the heart of our lightweight, high performance and aggressive FX Nytro model family. It has dominated its class at the Old Forge Shoot-Out 2 years straight, claiming top speed twice and posting the best average ET over 4 runs down the ¼-mile track.
  • Advanced fuel injection
    High Performance engine uses Yamaha’s advanced fuel injection system to control fuel flow to the engine. Consumers will enjoy the engine’s spot-on performance and throttle response as a result of the advanced electronic fuel injection system.
  • Engine braking reduction system
    The High Performance engine features the unique Engine Braking Reduction System. The system allows a small amount of air to pass through the fuel injection system when the throttle is released, giving riders a “coast” feeling.
  • Lightweight rear-exiting exhaust
    The patented rear exit design serves many performance-enhancing functions on the FX Nytro MTX SE 162. First, it maximizes horsepower by using a straight exhaust pipe design. Second, it reduces the amount of under-hood heat produced. Third, the rear-exiting design distributes weight to contribute to the excellent balance of the sled.
  • Forced air radiator ducting
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162’s airflow design pulls fresh air in from around the headlight and forces it through the radiator fins for high cooling capacity, resulting in consistent engine performance even in low-snow conditions.
  • 15x162x2.25-inch Single-ply Camoplast® track
    Yamaha and Camoplast® collaborated in the design of this lightweight, single-ply track. The 15x162x2.25-inch track features a 3-inch pitch to allow more snow to pack in between the lugs for a firmer grip on the snow. The 162-inch track weighs the same as the multiple-ply 153-inch track.
Handling
  • FXG2 front suspension geometry
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162 features the acclaimed FX Nytro front suspension with more trail and relaxed caster for greater deep snow handling and side hilling ability. The sway bar was also removed to enhance handling in steep, mountainous regions.
  • FX™ chassis with sport rider-forward position
    The compact design puts the engine down low and back in the chassis, leaving the top of the cab open for airflow. This gives the FX Nytro MTX SE 162 a very centralized mass. The FX Nytro MTX SE 162’s sport rider-forward ergonomic design puts the rider in an aggressive, yet comfortable, forward posture.
  • Tall, wide, hooked mountain handlebars
    To match the tall and forward position, a single-piece, dual-hooked handlebar is standard fare on the FX Nytro MTX SE 162. The hooks have the same grip material as the main bar section, for consistent control, regardless of hand position on the grip. Mountain riders will appreciate the center grab strap when it’s time for sidehilling.
  • Composite upper skeleton
    The headlight assembly and upper portion of the Nytro MTX SE 162 is supported by a super-lightweight composite framework. By using a rugged, high tech composite material as the structure for the top portion of the sled, Yamaha engineers were able to keep the mass centered low and deep in the chassis.
  • Lightweight 11-degree tunnel
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162 features a lightweight tunnel design. With the runningboards tipped up at an aggressive 11-degree angle, the FX Nytro MTX SE 162 delivers big ground clearance for deep snow capability. The design also features large snow evacuation and boot gripper punch outs.
Comfort
  • ProMountain® Air rear suspension
    The Nytro MTX SE 162 is equipped with a award-winning all-air rear suspension. In a joint effort, Yamaha co-developed this suspension with Fox® to make it the best suspension for any mountain rider. It is equipped with a Fox® FLOAT™ 2 and Fox® FLOAT™ 2 XV shock that boost this suspension to another level. This, combined with a shallow 18-degree approach angle, a semi coupled design, and lightweight rails, make this suspension exceed your expectations.
  • Fox® FLOAT™ 2 front shocks
    Fox® FLOAT™ 2 shocks use an air spring designed to force the piston to rebound. This eliminates the need for steel coil springs. They cut three pounds off the sled’s overall weight, as compared to traditional coil over springs. They are individually tunable by using a pocket-sized air pump, which comes with the sled, so consumers will be able to set the front suspension up to their liking.
  • Wide runningboards with traction
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162 is all about fun and handling. As a result, the runningboards are nice and wide and loaded with traction. Riders will be able to put their feet anywhere on the runningboards and have confidence in their traction. This allows the rider to move around and really enjoy the full fun of a lightweight sled.
  • Replaceable-bearing wheels
    The lightweight wheels make the ride smooth and make maintenance easy. When the bearings need to be replaced you don’t have to purchase a whole new wheel, just remove the old bearings and insert the new ones. The wheels also include a spoke design and a rubber rim that make for a comfortable riding experience. This design is implemented on the rear large wheels as well as the internal smaller wheels.
  • Sculpted narrow seat
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162 has a narrow seat for comfort. In addition to putting the rider in a tall, forward, attack posture, the seat’s height makes it plush and comfortable for a full day of riding. The narrow seat sits atop the beveled tunnel, which allows the track to be a traditional 15 inches wide, to maximize traction.
  • Concentrated hand warmers
    These hand warmers have a concentrated element design, which focuses the heat in the middle of the grip material. The result is a warm grip for your hand’s most comfortable riding position. In addition, an insulator is placed between the heating element and handlebar to retain heat longer and more efficiently than previous designs.
  • Digital gauge
    The digital gauge displays key information at a glance. Vehicle speed is displayed on a large LCD readout. In addition, the rider can select tachometer, odometer or tripmeter data to appear on secondary readout. The gauge also displays system warning lights, fuel level, and warmer intensity.
  • Quick-release, single-piece hood/console shroud
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162 has a single-piece hood and console shroud. The design allows owners to open and close the top portion of the sled easily with Dzus® quick-connect fasteners.
  • New graphic packages
    The FX Nytro MTX SE 162 comes in two graphic packages; Yamaha blue/white as well as Yamaha black. These awesome designs produce one of the best looking sleds on the snow.
