May 2009 UTV of the Month - Yamaha Rhino
2007 Yamaha Rhino

May 2009

Information:

This beautiful Yamaha Rhino is the work of SDR Motorsports located in Riverside, CA.

Besides all of the more "typical" aftermarket parts added to this Yamaha Rhino, SDR Motorsports put some extra effort into the custom roll cage which really bring this car to a new level.
The Rhino has been widened by four inches per side by re-locating the B-pillars out and back two inches. The cage still bolts on and off but has a race chassis look. The cage is designed to work with the factory fuel tank so a fuel cell wasn't necessary.

The bedsides have also been raise up four inches and out four inches per side to align the bottom of the bed side with the bottom tip of the hood to clean up the lines and prevent any rubbing. All total the cage is almost seven inches lower than stock.
