Smile The new 2016 Yamaha side by side with 1000cc and a 5 speed manual stick!

The specs are amazing on this new Sport model from Yamaha.

3 cylinder 1000cc
5 speed stick with electric shift and clutch pedal
16" front and 17" rear suspension travel via 3" dia FOX shocks.
Power Steering.
2 or 4 wheel drive with locking diffs.
the list goes on and on.

THANK YOU YAMAHA!

NEW 2016 Yamaha YXZ1000R from UTVUnderground.com


For Yamaha fit and finish, and only $19,999 you're getting a hell of a lot of machine that will really bite into Polaris RZRs and Artic Cats that only have a sluggish CVT belt drive.

The YXZ1000 was just officially announced yesterday, supposed to be on dealer floors in a couple months.

Yamaha has had that engine in Snowmobiles for several years.....Compared to the weight and power of a 2-stroke engine, most refer to it as a "Turd".........

Those last two examples are no where near the suspension travel of 16"F and 17" rear on the Yamaha.

also power to weight ration, the YXZ is 112 hp, to a 1500 pound wet chassis. Redline is 10,500.


Long travel suspension is where it's at.


I rode once in a $70K Tatum sand rail with 24/26" suspension travel and a Navistar V8, feeding twin headers with supertrapps on them. It shook the ground from 100' away just while idling.

The Yamaha at 20K is a steal for the package.

compared to the $60-70K+ Insane Tatum Cars:

Maybe so, but they can't be pumping out the two strokes like they used to....



I still bet this thing is tons of fun. I love blasting up 4wd trails in a RZR this looks like even more fun.

I'm not looking! I can't hear you! (fingers in ears) LA! LA! LA!

Thank goodness you are in Canada where I am safe from dropping by to take a look.
