AUTUMN 1981 - There will be an SR-V of a different color out on the cross country circuit in 1982. Yamaha's trail racer is now black and its new macho look is matched by a beefed up engine and new high-performance clutch.
The SR-V gets a power boost from 56 horsepower to more than 60 horsepower. The extra horses have been added via larger reed valve assemblies and larger intake and exhaust port dimensions on the 536cc axial fan-cooled twin engine.
The SR-V also gets the new Yamaha YSR drive clutch, which promises increased durability and performance. Another change is in the seat, where more comfort has been added by removing the rear storage area and replacing it with foam.
