Power And Performance
Powerful Hole Shot
The Composite Intake Manifold on F90 features a long tube intake tracks, tuned to increase airflow, which boost low-end and midrange torque. This means a more powerful hole shot and increased acceleration. Even with all this responsive power, an air silencer box and surge tank reduce air intake noise and air turbulence for smooth, quiet operation.
Power and Efficiency
Precision Multi-Point Electronic Fuel Injection delivers the exact amount of fuel needed for optimum performance and efficiency. Yamaha’s EFI optimizes fuel atomization further enhancing fuel economy.
Lightweight, Compact Design
The F90 features a single overhead camshaft, but still deploys four valves per cylinder. That setup means less mass in the cylinder head and reduced weight for the overall outboard. At the same time, four valves per cylinder means great engine combustion, which contributes to horsepower, torque and fuel efficiency.
Quick Acceleration
The F90 has stepped up to 1.8-liter displacement while dropping 13 pounds. Lighter weight and increased volumetric efficiency, plus increased displacement equals thrilling performance and makes the 90 hp a top performer in acceleration and torque.
Optimal Performance
A TCI microcomputer ignition adjusts timing to maintain optimal engine performance, economy and power under all operating conditions.
Reliability And Durability
Combined with our proprietary alloy (YDC-30), our exclusive Phaze Five™ anti-corrosive paint system provides a tough, five-layer barrier against corrosion. This protection is standard on all Yamaha High Thrust four-stroke engines.
