A thrilling new six‑speed sequential shifting and automatic clutch puts Pure Sport performance at your fingertips, while the high‑revving, high‑output inline‑triple engine brings big power off‑road.
The industry’s only six-speed manual transmission, optimized for performance in both high- and low-speed situations with updated gear ratios, including a 40% lower first gear. Increased clutch durability delivers greater confidence during operation, while simultaneously improving driver comfort at slower speeds.
CAPABILITY
The enhanced six-speed transmission on the new YXZ1000R SS now also includes all-new Yamaha Auto-Shift Technology, providing the Pure Sport, direct-connection feeling to drivers who prefer automatic transmission, with the flexibility of switching to a manual gear selection for the ultimate direct-connection experience. Through a new dash-mounted dial, users can select between three transmission modes: “Auto”, “Sport Auto” and “Sport Shift".
COMFORT
To further tailor your YXZ1000R SS to REALize Your Adventure, the new YXZ features a higher electrical output, supporting more customization for accessories. The high-output ACM provides 1,000 watts of electricity, allowing for more accessories without horsepower loss. Additionally, four electrical ports are added—two toward the front and two in the rear—for easier and faster accessory installation.
