2026 Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup

Yamaha Motor Australia has announced the Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup will be returning in November 2026 to run in conjunction with the high profile national AUSX series. Here’s the details…

The Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup is more than a race series – it’s a celebration of motocross designed to offer participants and their families a unique experience. With unparalleled access to Yamaha Motor Australia’s professional race teams, each Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup participant is rewarded with memories that will last a lifetime. The ethos of Yamaha’s BLU CRU YZ65 Cup is to make every rider and his or her family feel like they are part of the Yamaha factory race team, courtesy of the unique BLU CRU experience.

The Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup offers an opportunity for nine to 12-year-olds to feel what it’s like to be a factory rider for the day. Yamaha Motor Australia is excited to offer the Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup opportunity at the Australian Supercross Championship this year. “YMA has been providing this unique experience since 2018 and has proved super popular for young guns starting out in the sport,” says YMA Customer Activation Coordinator Jake Belford. “It’s great to see former Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup riders achieve success at the top level – such as 2026 FIM World Junior Motocross Champion Blake Bohannon,” adds Belford.

But no matter where they finish, Yamaha Motor Australia’s goal is for riders to enjoy Kando moments that linger long in the memory. And by exposing riders to the wider Yamaha family at the racetrack we aim to keep YZ65 customers in the BLU CRU. We encourage all YZ65 riders who meet the requirements to apply but note the grid is limited at each event.

Yamaha values the safety of all riders and aims to make the Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup a fun and rewarding experience. Prior to submitting an entry, parents are asked to assess their child’s riding skills to determine if they will be comfortable riding in a competitive environment on a modified supercross track. Accordingly, all riders must hold a current MA licence and are requested to submit valid proof of age.

Yamaha Motor Australia is committed to supporting grassroots dirt bike riding and will ensure the Yamaha BLU CRU YZ65 Cup receives extensive media coverage, so why not help your young guns get on the grid by registering interest before 14 September 2026. All successful applicants will be notified via email or telephone before 30 September 2026.
