You may think of the SX Venom as a tiny, light, toy like sled, but you should know that this is one of the most reliable sleds Yamaha ever built. It’s not filled with gadgets and options…but it has the proven 600, excellent brakes, proven suspension and is easy to fix (if you ever need to). It’s a sled you can trust 100% that’s gonna take you wherever you want it to without any problems whatsoever. It has plenty of power in it and is pretty comfortable too. See the given characteristics:

The sled is easy to control and maneuver with. You don’t have to worry about the digital ignition…it starts every time no matter the conditions. The fuel economy is great with this sled (and not just because it’s light). It’s not one of the quietest ones, but it’s a 2-stroke after all. The price is what you’re gonna like most. The sled performs perfectly and in my opinion is worth even more that you’re asked to pay for it. You should give it a try if you have the chance. I’m sure you’ll like it.
