2020 YXZ1000R SS XT-R

2020 YXZ1000R and YXZ1000R SS: PURE-SPORT FUN AND DOMINATION FROM COAST-TO-COAST

The 2020 YXZ1000R and YXZ1000R SS are the ultimate pure-sport high-performance off-road adventure vehicles, ca- pable of handling a wide variety of terrain – from open deserts and dunes to muddy trails and rough, rocky terrain. The YXZ models are powered by Yamaha’s industry-first 998cc triple-cylinder engine and industry-exclusive manual trans- mission, delivering the only direct-connection experience and feel in a Side-by-Side. Designed with either a full-manual five-speed transmission for ultimate vehicle-to-driver connection, or with alumi- num paddle shifters in the high-tech SS package, all YXZ models have Yamaha’s Real World Tech features, including On-Command 4WD, speed and torque-sensitive EPS, and prewiring for the Yamaha Adventure Pro GPS. Capability, com- fort, and confidence are optimized for unmatched pure-sport performance with high flow intake and exhaust, an over- sized rear-mounted radiator, and 29-inch Maxxis Bighorn 8-ply rated radial tires. Special Edition YXZ1000R and YXZ1000R SS models are further equipped with painted bodywork, color-matched interi- or, true beadlock wheels, and high-spec, fully-adjustable FOX 2.5 Podium RC2 shocks. The all-new YXZ1000R SS XT-R package includes all SE upgrades, in addition to Yamaha-exclusive Maxxis Carnage 8-ply rated radial tires for excep- tional traction and durability, centerline pod lights for enhanced illumination, a custom front grab bar with a heavy-duty WARN VRX 4500 winch and integrated in-cab switch, a composite suntop, and contrast-stitched seats. Available at authorized Yamaha dealers this fall, the 2020 YXZ1000R will be available in red with aluminumwheels (MSRP $18,999), and the Sport Shift in White with aluminumwheels (MSRP $18,999). The Special Edition YXZs will be available in Team Yamaha Blue with aluminum beadlock wheels (MSRP $20,699), and the YXZ1000R SS XT-R model will be available in Titanium Bronze / Tactical Black with suntop, WARN winch, and beadlock wheels (MSRP $21,699).
