Vehicle Information
Yamaha Exciter 440 Snowmobile (1976-1981)
The Yamaha Exciter 440, produced from 1976 to 1981, was a popular snowmobile known for its performance. It featured a 433cc (or 440cc) reed valve, 7-port "Torque-Induction" axial fan-cooled twin engine. This model primarily maintained a single trim level throughout its production, with yearly updates.
While there were no major generational breaks, the Exciter 440 received continuous improvements. In 1977, the engine featured revised porting and a retuned drive clutch, increasing power to the track. 1978 saw the introduction of a new Keihin carburetor for improved fuel economy and chassis updates, including a more tapered tunnel, a new seat, and an 8-gallon (30-liter) fuel tank. Minor aesthetic and electrical changes were made in 1979 and 1980, such as hood color modifications and CDI system durability enhancements.
