Maybe one is more "sport" and the other is "race"?
Neither, way too much of a pure race machine for the average user.
Nice rig but the manual trans is not gonna work for me.
whats the difference between the two?
It looks like the yellow one has beadlocks for 1 thing
Really kinda bummed that it's 64" wide. Doesn't work well for trails for my area
I'll update the thread shortly on the differences.
Here is a link to a comparison
2016 Yamaha YXZ1000R SE - Compare Specs, Prices

Special Edition Features
In addition to the durable bead-lock w heels, the YXZ1000R SE is highlighted by a stunning 60th Anniversary Yellow and Black graphics package with matching A-arms for standout style.
300-pound Cargo Capacity
Bring what you need, thanks to the YXZ1000R SE's composite cargo bed, with a 300-pound capacity and four steel tie-down points. A sealed compartment next to the cargo bed and glove box in the cab provide additional storage, as do passenger-side cup holders and a central storage tray in the dashboard.
Standard Suntop
The YXZ1000R SE comes standard with a composite suntop integrated into the ROPS structure. A pair of whip flag mounts are ready for customization options, too.
Aggressive LED Lighting
Four super bright and long-lasting LED headlight assemblies provide brilliant forward illumination and give the YXZ1000R SE a sinister and aggressive sense of style, with a bright LED tail light out back for extra visibility.
Assembled in the USA
The all-new YXZ1000R SE is proudly assembled in Newnan, GA, for world-wide distribution and is built to be Real World Tough™.

I like the appearance of the blue & white one the best
I'm pretty bummed out 64" is too wide for me. And the manual isn't what I want to be focusing on when rock climbing and doing tight forest trails.

edit: not to mention the 26k price tag for Canadians.

I like the blue a lot better. The 2k saved can buy light bars and a stereo!

I love the looks and the features. I'm just a little Leary about the clutch.

Just curious i noticed in the picture you posted there is a 3rd category that is blank, Is there another vehicle to come on this page for comparison? Have we not seen everything already?
So what do you get with the SE that you don't get with the base? From what I can tell it just looks like bead locks and painted a-arms... and a delivery date that's two months sooner :confused:

Based on this spec sheet they seem to be the same other than color. However, the picture shows beadlock rims on the SE and it will be the first one available.
Nothing I know of, the form just put the third column in..

As for the beadlocks, they are spec'd with the SE as "In addition" implying that the SE has these in addition to the other items listed as compared to the "R"
Yamaha Rep mentioned a turbo version will be released next.
