Tire replacement
Always use the same size and type of tires
recommended in this owner’s manual. The
tires that came with your Yamaha YXZ1000R
were designed to match the performance ca-
pabilities and to provide the best combination
of handling, braking, and comfort. It is best to
replace all four tires at the same time. If that is
not possible, you must replace the tires in
pairs (front or rear) with tires of the same size
and type as the originals. Never replace just
one tire.
