Does any one know about a new yamaha 4wd utility quad ?I want to replace my old big bear, but dont want to buy a new machine if there is a new one in the works!!!Is it auto?size engine?weight?name?ect,ect .... thanks

 

According to the new issue of 4-Wheel ATV Action, its selectable 2WD/4WD, double A-arm front suspension, liquid cooled, foot shift, and independant rear suspension. It probably has the Raptor's 660 4-stroke, and, judging by the pictures, it looks to be a rather sporty machine, but it also has racks. The name is unclear as of yet... perhaps its the new Wolverine, perhaps its the new Grizzly, or maybe its an entirely new quad altogether.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see...

thanks for the info,sounds good,i like the raptor motor idea..

 

According to my dealer it is the new Grizzly and it uses the raptor motor. He said he thought it would be tuned differently (more low end torque). That's all I heard.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

The New Grizzlorine!!!!

Definitely sounds like the new Hot Ticket

All of the benefits of the H.O. but weighing 100 lbs less [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I dont know to much about the raptor engine,what do you think it would do compared to the new kawasaki 650 coming out,could it compete with a twin clylender?

 

hey guys....i got the scoop today direct from atv action..this is all for sure info.....it uses the 660 raptor engine and a duramatic auto tranny and has a lockable differential!!!!!!!!

i hope they spend some time improving there brakes if it is a new grizzly disc brakes all the way around would be a good start that rear drum is a pain in the $&% at least with disc you can change your pad's in no time with very few tool's.that's my two cent's
99 grizzly
02 viper

 

I thought the new grizz was a 660 v twin. IRS and a liquid cooled. True locking diff.
