2018 Yamaha YXZ1000R SS SE Pearl White w/Black Suntop & Beadlock Wheels

The Special Edition YXZ1000R SS includes painted exterior, FOX X2 long-travel shocks, true bead lock wheels and more.

• Stunning, Industry-First Three-Cylinder Engine

Featuring a compact DOHC twelve-valve cylinder head, an aggressive 11.3:1 compression ratio and high-tech dry-sump lubrication, the YXZ1000R SS SE engine offers jaw-dropping power, fantastic midrange torque and a thrilling 10,500 rpm redline. With lightweight forged aluminum pistons and an engine counterbalancer, the motor is exceptionally smooth-running, too. Built for the pure sport side-by-side enthusiast, there’s nothing else like it.

• All-New Yamaha Sport Shift 5-Speed Sequential Shift Transmission

The YXZ1000R SS SE breaks new ground with Yamaha 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 that replaces the foot-operated clutch pedal with sporty paddle shifters mounted to the steering column. Yamaha Sport Shift offers a high-tech riding experience that anyone can enjoy, with rapid and precise gear selection literally at your fingertips.

• Launch System

The YXZ1000R SS SE shift system incorporates a unique Launch System. Actuated using the brake pedal and both steering wheel paddles, the Launch System allows for high-speed take-offs for maximum acceleration—and excitement.

• Aggressive Style

Radical styling shows off Yamaha’s passion for powersports. And form follows function, as the front suspension design permits an extremely low hood line for excellent trail visibility.

• All-New Terrain Conquering, Industry-Exclusive FOX® Podium X2 Shocks

No other suspension on the market can match the YXZ1000R SS SE's ability to deliver both low-speed comfort over the harshest chop while at the same time providing incredible bottoming resistance. Huge piggyback twin-wall FOX® 2.5 Podium X2 Shocks bring a whole new level of adjustability by not only giving you high- and low-speed compression damping adjustments, but, for the first time ever, high- and low-speed rebound as well, all mounted to the top of the shock body for easy tuning. All shocks also feature dual springs with crossover adjustment— providing 16.2 inches front and 17.0 inches rear travel.

• Optimized Suspension Geometry

Rigid spherical-joint double A-arms suspension retains ideal castor angle and bump response throughout the entire travel range, for excellent cornering ability, light steering feel and straight line stability across the roughest terrain. Front and rear sway bars minimize body roll for flatter, more responsive cornering.

• Racing Blue Special Edition Features

In addition to the industry-first, twin-wall Fox® 2.5 Podium® X2 Shocks and durable color-matched bead-lock wheels, the YXZ1000R SS SE is highlighted by an aggressive Racing Blue paint and graphics package with matching chassis for standout style. Lightweight aluminum rear knuckles, a rear arm guard and a highly durable and wear-resistant rear skid plate composed of High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (HMWPE) are added to all YXZ1000R SS SE models.

• Pearl White Special Edition Features

In addition to the industry-first, twin-wall Fox® 2.5 Podium® X2 Shocks and durable color-matched bead-lock wheels, the Pearl White Special Edition interior features include high-quality, lightweight aluminum throttle and brake pedals, painted shift lever, factory-installed interior lighting, and a sport-inspired rearview mirror.
