| Dear Yamaha
Rhino Owner: |
| |
| While the Rhino has been a reliable and
versatile vehicle, some operators have engaged in aggressive driving
(such as sliding, skidding, fishtailing, or doing donuts) or made
abrupt maneuvers (such as turning the steering wheel too far or too
fast) that have resulted in side rollovers - even on flat, open areas.
Unfortunately, some occupants have been seriously injured during such
rollovers when they put their arms or legs outside the vehicle, resulting
in crushing or other injuries. |
| |
| Special Offer
to Rhino Owners |
| Yamaha has developed new doors and additional
passenger handholds for the Rhino. These new features, as shown in
the enclosed guide, are designed to help keep occupants from sticking
arms or legs out of the vehicle in response to a side rollover. They
may also enhance passenger stability and comfort. You can find more
information at www.yamaha-motor.com/rhino.
Yamaha recommends that you have these doors and handholds installed
on your Rhino. |
 |
| All Rhino
Owners Can Have These New Features Installed Free of Charge. |
| Please make an appointment with your Yamaha
dealer to take advantage of this special offer. |
| |
| You may be aware that a number of aftermarket
companies are now offering doors, panels, bars, netting, or similar
products for installation on Rhinos. Yamaha cannot investigate or
endorse aftermarket companies' products with respect to quality, fit,
or safety. We only recommend genuine Yamaha parts and accessories
for your Rhino. |

New On-Product Label on Your Rhino |
| To promote awareness of the new free product
features and to help reinforce safe and responsible use of the Rhino,
Yamaha has developed the enclosed adhesive label. Please read it and
