Put the new full size Grizzly 550 motor in that mid size 421 chassis and it would be awsome.

Thats what I have been saying for years now. Unfortunately the frames too small to hold it. Truthfully though I am pretty happy with the power it has. Just do some clutch work and it's like riding a new quad. The one issue is no matter what you add for power mods (exhaust, jetting, cam) it doesn't do squat for top end, just a little quicker and better throttle response.

Kudos to Yamaha. Now if they'd make a Grizzly with an Sportsman X2's abilities I'd consider buying one.

Hopefully withe Wolvy out of there lineup for 2011 that is exactly what they are doing. A 550/700 sounds nice!

That would be cool to see a Wolverine with the 550 or 700. It would be good competition for the CanAm Renegade 500 and leave behind the Polaris Scrambler 500.
