- The one VX700 model year is not verified, which needs a check against the maker's own document, which the row names, and an engine figure; it names its source below.
Some Yamaha numbers are measured sizes rather than the number in the model name: a GP760 is held as 753, a GP1200R as 1131, a GP1300R as 1296. None of these figures has been checked against a Yamaha document unless a cited source states it.

Year by year
| Model year | Engine, as the records hold it | Fuel system | Strokes | Hull type | What the record says | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2006 | 701 | Carburettor | Two-stroke | Sit-down | Successor to the XL700 in rental fleets, and the 701 case, so 701 parts are the place to start on fitment. Note that Yamaha's own history page rounds this engine to 700cc while its own service manual gives 701cc with 81.0 by 68.0 mm behind it. The manual is the better document and 81 by 68 across two cylinders is 700.8cc. | Source 1 |
