2020 Yamaha YXZ1000R Owner's Manual

Your hand or arm may be struck by objects or crushed against outside objects or the ground during a rollover. Holding onto the handhold helps to reduce the likelihood that the passenger puts a hand outside the vehicle if the vehicle begins to tip. The driver should make sure the passenger is holding onto the handhold with both hands before operating the vehicle.

Slide the handhold to the desired position and align the holes in the handhold bar with the holes in the handhold supports. Do not put your hand or arm on or outside of the shoulder bolster during operation. Grip the steering wheel so that your thumbs will not be hit by the spokes.

Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly familiar with the operation and handling of the vehicle. Become familiar with the way the vehicle handles in the various drive modes. Take the time to learn basic operation of the vehicle before driving at higher speeds or attempting more difficult maneuvers.
