I don't think yamaha has made a mistake with this machine at all. Everyone knows you don't need more than a 700cc machine, so do the people at Yamaha. That is why they are not chasing the " Most power " title. They took an already proven machine and made it even better. If any manufacturer wanted the title they could build the biggest machine but the market of buyers for machines that big is small and it is not wirth it to most manufactures to go after. Lets face it most people don't need a machine any bigger than this, and most people who own grizzlys already are happy with their machines. They just wanted EFI and a few other upgrades and thats what they got. I'd like to see them build something like the renegade, that market is wide open. If thats the kind of power you want then that is the class of machine to be shopping for.

I have always been a loyal Yamaha fan but the fact all the utes are named Grizzly or big bear is sort of insulting to me. I guess they figure we can't remember any more than two names. I also think they need to adress the need for a manual that isn't just "granny" geared for those of use that like manuals. I've had Yammy's for 14 years now but I'm afraid the Bomb or the Suzuki's now have my business.
