Yes they are definately backwards. I noticed the same thing when looking at the pictures. If you look at the first picture up top with the guy riding the Rubicon you can see that the tires on that one are on the correct way. I've noticed other ATV's like that too. Go here to yamaha's site and look at the big bear 400 4x4 video. http://www.yamahausa.com/video/atvvideo.html You can see that one front tire is on correctly, and the other is backwards.

Is it possible that is something to do with the developement of the photograph? I have not seen what you mean? Is the exhaust pipe on the left?
Where is the pic you're talking about? I am the last to know! :-)

I saw the pic. That is the special factory setup for "free-style" operation. I am sure that will be in the article :-).
That looks like something I would do.
