PURE SPORT. ALL PERFORMANCE.

The most focused, pure sport Side-by-Side that brings a superior level of high-performance to every ride, from open deserts to tight woods.

Features may include:

CAPABILITY

• Stunning, Industry-First Three-Cylinder Engine

Designed to bring a Pure Sport riding character like nothing else in the side-by-side world, the YXZ1000R engine was built to deliver high-revving power with the flexibility and character that only an inline triple can provide. With a compact, counterbalanced, DOHC cylinder head, an aggressive 11.3:1 compression ratio and dry-sump lubrication, the YXZ1000R engine offers exceptional power, a thrilling 10,500 rpm redline, and high-strength internals ready to handle the demands of high-output modifications like turbocharging.

• Smart Cooling System

To ensure peak performance every ride, the YXZ1000R features a vented, rear-mounted radiator. This system not only reduces heat in the cabin, it remains clear of mud or debris build-up, and is designed to funnel cool air through the radiator at low or high speeds equally well.

• Exclusive 5-Speed Sequential Transmission

Nothing in the side-by-side world can match the feeling of banging through the gears using the YXZ1000R’s sequential 5-speed manual transmission. A beefy hydraulically-actuated clutch system is operated by a foot pedal for light, consistent feel, while delivering power up to 20% more efficiently than most automatic CVTs. Optimized gearing gives the YXZ1000R even more flexibility to handle nearly any type of trail, from wide-open desert trails to first-gear crawling.

COMFORT

• Ergonomics Built for Performance

The YXZ1000R cab features plush, high-back seats with extra lateral support and outside shoulder bolsters, and the cockpit provides a balance of driving confidence with comfort. Shaped floorboards provide generous legroom while still giving a planted feel, and both the driver’s seat and steering wheel are adjustable to ensure a perfect fit.

• Supersport-Style Dashboard

The YXZ1000R features instruments inspired by Yamaha’s high-performance supersport motorcycles. Functions include a digital speedometer, analog tachometer and programmable shift light, with readouts for 4WD mode, gear position, fuel level, trip meters, hour meter, coolant temperature warning and a clock.

• Cool-Running Cabin

Drive hard and keep your cool. The rear-mounted radiator significantly reduces cabin heat compared to a conventional forward- mounted cooling system.

CONFIDENCE

• Proven Reliability

Yamaha continues to build industry-leading machines lauded for their peerless reliability and durability. The YXZ1000R features fit and finish, components and construction designed to make every ride exceptional.

• Aggressive LED Lighting

Four super bright and long-lasting LED headlights provide brilliant forward illumination and give the YXZ1000R a sinister sense of style, with a bright LED taillight for extra visibility.

• 300-Pound Cargo Capacity

Bring what you need thanks to a cargo rack with a 300-pound capacity. A glove box in the cab provides additional storage, as do passenger-side cup holders and a central storage tray in the dashboard.
