2020 Yamaha YXZ1000R SS XT-R

This XT-R Edition is ready for extreme adventure with a factory installed Warn Winch, Special Edition paint, color matched wheels, and aggressive Yamaha-exclusive Maxxis Carnage tires.

Features may include:

• 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 SS XT-R 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 SS XT-R 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 SS XT-R 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 SS XT-R’s Sport Shift, a sequential 5-speed manual transmission featuring Yamaha Chip Controlled Shift (YCC-S) technology. This system combines the power, durability and efficiency of a traditional manual transmission with an advanced automatic clutch system controlled with sporty paddle shifters mounted to the steering column. Sport Shift offers a high-tech riding experience that anyone can enjoy, with rapid and precise gear selection literally at your fingertips. And optimized gearing gives the YXZ1000R SS XT-R even more flexibility to handle nearly any type of trail, from wide-open desert trails to first-gear crawling.

• Ergonomics Built for Performance

The YXZ1000R SS XT-R 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.

• Composite Suntop

A strong but lightweight composite suntop keeps the cabin running cool and perfectly matches the rakish lines of the YXZ body. The roof features proper clearance for riders in their helmets, eliminating the cramped feel found in many competitors’ machines. A wide-angle rearview mirror is also tucked under the new roof for enhanced rearward visibility.

• Supersport-Style Dashboard

The YXZ1000R SS XT-R 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.

• Warn® Winch Package

To ensure you can get out of even the toughest spots when far away from civilization, the new YXZ1000R SS XT-R features a Warn® VRX 4500 winch package mounted via a new custom front grab bar. Since the winch package was engineered alongside the new XT-R, the winch’s controls are integrated into the electrical system, putting the controls right where the driver needs them.

• Proven Reliability

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