OK I will try to make this as short as I can but don't know if it will happen. To start off I am a Yamaha man , I have owned several of them through the year as of right now I have four Yamaha atvs in my garage . I like Yamaha . I am now looking in getting a side by side and have had my eye on this Wolverine R spec. I have kept up with this forum seeing all the likes and dislikes about the bike. I like what it has to offer it is a play and work side by side . The guys I ride with all have RZR and boy do they look awesome . There is also another guy who has a Maverick it to is a pretty cool machine . The problem for me is that I want to use mine to hunt also and both those machines to really work for that . I don't want to get into the reliability conversation about each machine because I really believe that is a personal preference thing (the Ford , Chevy, Dodge argument ). The BIG problem I am having about the Wolverine is the 700cc motor. Everything I have ready says it a lot better motor more powerful great design. I just don't understand why a 700 . Everyone else has a 1000cc motor . Even Honda put a 100cc motor in their Pioneer . We are talking 300 cc difference in almost everything out there .Now with that being said I am driving 450 bikes so a 700 cc bike is way more than I have right now. Now my go fast days are over and most of the riding I do is putt putting around. But I do still play in the Mud and of course that comes with bigger tires lifts and other stuff to start putting stress on the motor . I see the RZR and Maverick guys jump out of the mud holes with great ground clearance and motor to spare . Now Polaris is coming out with the General and just based on what I have seen I wish it was the bike Yamaha would have built.
So those of you who have bought a Wolverine added the 28" tires and stuff is it enough bike . Does it have enough a$$ end once all the stuff us guys put on them . Do you think Yamaha will come out soon with a 900 or 1000cc Wolverine should I wait , and no the YFZ1000 is not what I am looking for . Again I am not looking for a speedster but every maker has passed the 700cc and the norm is the 1000. Hope to get some feed back to see what people think .
