The '''[[Yamaha]] IT 490''' was a Two stroke, single cylinder, read valve, [[air cooled]] Enduro [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Yamaha]] between 1983 and 1984. Max [[torque]] was 30.98 ft/lbs (42.0 Nm) @ 5500 RPM. Claimed [[horsepower]] was 35.0 HP (26.1 KW) @ 6000 RPM. 
==Engine==
The engine was a air cooled Two stroke, single cylinder, read valve, air cooled. A 86.4mm [[bore]] x 86.4mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 490.0 cubic centimeters. 
==Drive==
The bike has a 5-Speed transmission. Power was moderated via the Wet multi-discs. 
==Chassis==
It came with a 3.00 -21 front [[tire]] and a 150/80 -18 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via Drum in the front and a Drum in the rear. The front suspension was a  43mm Telescopic adjustable forks while the rear was equipped with a Mono shock, adjustable spring preload and rebound damping. The IT 490 was fitted with a 3.59 Gallon (13.60 Liters) fuel tank. The bike weighed just 275.58 pounds (125.0 Kg). The wheelbase was 56.5 inches (1435 mm) long.

The big news in the powerplant is the bump in displacement from 465 to 487cc, accomplished simply by increasing the cylinder bore two millimeters. This follows the large, seven-millimeter increase in stroke which boosted the IT's displacement from 425 to 465cc in 1981. Aside from the trendiness involved in increasing their open-classers' engine sizes, most manufacturers are nudging 500cc because more displacement is the most straightforward route to better power.
