A couple of years ago, Yamaha brought in a couple
of these beastys. We were lucky enough to get a
short ride – and we flippen loved it! We have noticed
that, after an absence of a couple of years, there are
a few knocking around at dealerships like World Of
Yamaha and Linex. Here’s a recap for you lot.
Yamaha basically invented the side-by side market
with their Rhino. Then along came the Viking, but
for years, UTV enthusiasts clamored for a true sport
UTV. Where was Yamaha’s answer to the Polaris
RZR or the Can-Am Maverick?
In 2016 Yamaha responded in the form of the
YXZ1000R, A dune-shredding machine with
acceleration and speed capabilities worth bragging
about. It’s clear that Yamaha’s engineers took time
to really determine how the YXZ could build upon
a sport side-by-side legacy that has already been
established by other manufacturers.
