Yamaha dirt bikes were the first two-wheeled bikes I ever bought. Before they were “cool.” Before everyone wanted them. Before Tomac and Deegan both signed with Star Racing. While KTM was still considered the “cool” brand.
It’s kind of like that feeling when you discover an artist or band when they’re small and new, then they blow up… you try to convince everyone that you heard them first. That’s me with Yamaha dirt bikes.
Fast forward a few years, Yamaha dirt bikes are all the rage. They’re winning all the titles and signing a ton of riders to their motocross and supercross teams. A lot of privateer teams are even switching to, or doubling down on, Yamaha.
That said, Yamaha doesn’t only produce racing dirt bikes. They offer bikes that cover nearly every riding condition you could want.
Below is a comprehensive list of all Yamaha dirt bikes and the guides and articles we’ve written about them. We’ll also update this page regularly with any announcements regarding these Yamaha models.
