The new sport model and the wolverines are a huge step in the right direction. I've notice a lot of people look at the numbers on paper and comment on how the wolverine sucks, etc.. Yet none have seen or even driven one..
The wolverine r spec outclasses everything in it's category and on par in many aspects of models in other classes. I feel if yamaha gave the wolverine 10 more wheel hp it would decimate every sport/ recreational utv under the xp1k and maverick.
With that said , if yamaha continues the way they have I think it will be class leading. I think once more reviews come in from sources people trust and respect the wolverine r spec will be class leading.
I'm not 100% sure on how I feel about the non r-spec. I understand the logic, but still feel iffy about it.
