A difference of $1100 is significant, until you look at the duration of your ownership. I own 2 Yamahas, they are both 20 years old, I changed the belt on each one...once, and they were both well beyond 10 years old when I did that too. How much does a Canam belt cost? Most guys I know that are riding Canams bring 1 if not 2 spare belts with them on a ride. Also factor in that I dont go on a single ride without having to leave a Canam on the trail somewhere then go back and tow it out...That $1100 difference is now chump change. Especially if you are going to own a machine for a long time. All your points were great, but long term payback and reliability is simply the single biggest factor when spending money.
Yeah, I’m sure the Can Am has better performance, but it just depends if you want something to last for many years or just something for a couple years and then trade it in. I think if you plan on keeping it for over five years go with one of the Japanese Quads imo
I race GNCC on a Can Am and compared to the Yamaha’s the the grizzly don’t hold up. The frames and suspension break when pushed hard. Look at the most grueling races like Baja, desert racing, gncc, Paris to Dacar, hunt the wolf and more are all dominated by Can Am. Rotax engines have always been very reliable.
Ive owned 5 can ams , and owned two grizzlies Shifter on the left is better for one , dependability , no flashy electronics Grizzly hands down the winner for me . Great video thanks for your time
Agree i like the shifter on left side vs right side! Yamaha is just reliable!!! I have a 03 ish runs strong still! Not many parts gone into it since new
Look a belt is around 130-180 dolars + the workmanship which is around 300$ per total so I think is not the end of the day if you change it every 3 years , hence 100 dolars per 1 year which in my opinion is peanuts if you have the money for such an atv. What you get ? More performance, better handling ... not that I don't love Yamaha's but between these 2 is all about more reliability vs more performance .... KTM vs anything japanese in enduro/motorcycle world
I wish sxs where never invented. In the south the atvs are age depending 30 and under for the most part you’ll be ok and it’ll be age appropriate. Over 30 get a sxs or you’ll be hearing from your buddies…”when you gonna get a sxs like the rest of us” 😢
Well let me tell you... nothing beats riding a regular quad.. it's way more fun period.. yeah it might have u feeling a little tired and maybe sore afterwards but if I wanted to ride a car type quad thru the trails I would of bought a jeep
Problem with reviews of any new machine is how is it going to run 5000 km from now. Frankly I wouldn’t buy a first year anything. That being said I hope this Can Am turns out to be a great machine. Force Yamaha to upgrade at least a little. Meanwhile I’ll keep my 21 Grizzly SE for at least another year.
Would have been nice to compare diff lock, engine breaking, and single lever vs independent front/rear breaking between the two. All are very important features with my style of riding and hardly ever get mentioned in most machine shoot-outs
Unchanged since 1998, I've had both and my first ride on my 2020 700 was just unimpressed by how similar it felt to my 1998 grizzly 600. Power wise and even ride quality felt the same. I still liked the 98 600 more to be honest.
@@greygrizzlyoutdoors1764I've noticed that being a part-time weekend warrior repair technician with a buddy of mine and his LLC he created driving a lot of these older machines mid-2000s polarises Yamahas Suzukis. Even my 2002 bear tracker and driving some of the newer machines 2015 and newer that the customer's drop off for regular maintenance I can't say there's much of a difference between the 20-year-old machines and the new models. You do notice the night and day difference between solid rear axle and independent rear suspension but there's 20 year old machines that have independent rear suspension. It's really hard to justify the prices of these new machines when you can find a used machine for example an 08 grizzly 700 with eps and just fix it for $600 to $800 in parts compared to spending 10 to 15 grand on a new machine. These four wheeler makers should be counting their lucky stars not too many people realize not a lot has changed in 20-30 years. I love my 02 bear tracker from Yamaha and to replace it with the modern day equivalent is $5,000. And the only thing that's changed is a CVT and front shocks instead of McPherson struts why spend $5,000 on a Kawasaki brute Force 300 which uses a kymco 270cc motor when my Yamaha Bear tracker is technically a 229cc labeled as a 250. Both machines are carbureted both machines are solid rear axle and I actually prefer my foot shift. second gear has saved my ass more times than I'd like to count getting stuck in these UTV ruts. I spent $700 in parts fixing a free four wheeler my buddy gave me because he broke the frame. And told me if I fixed it I can keep it so I did. My grandfather still drives his 2000 Kodiak 400. He bought brand new with a bonus check from AT& T and 24 years later he's still the original owner. I can't wait to inherit that. He spent three grand on it and to replace it AKA upgrade is $7,000 for what EFI and independent rear suspension instead of a solid rear axle it's not worth the money.
@@Tomyum19 I was going to say the same. I've only owned a solid rear axle and grandpa's Kodiak 400 is a solid rear axle he bought new in 2000 which I grew up on. Nothing like running close to the base of a tree coming down the trail and the roots become like mini speed bumps. The rear shock compresses. Then it returns to normal then guess what. Inertia carries your ass the rest of the way off the seat till your legs kick in to kinda hold you in suspension and your thigh muscle tense up to kinda keep you in place just above the seat. I repair atvs too so test riding a customers bike with IRS. Same scenario hit the tree roots wheel compresses spring, seat sinks a little and just ride it out like a wave. Much more pleasant riding experience They both have their place though but I still prefer solid rear axle for the riding I do mostly flat land. Honestly can't tell the difference until you go off asphalt and get some gradation to the land that's where it really counts. And the grizzly may be old tech but by God learn from Honda. Don't change a thing. Big bore singles are easier to work on and fix than v-twins.
Hey ! Great video as always DT ! As a Grizzly Rider and lover of the ATV (I've owned two) I think you guys summed this up perfectly, you get a whole lot more in that HD7 than you do with the Grizzly, saying that its a New Model VS a Grizzly that's been basically the same sense 2008 (lets me honest, even 2016 wasn't much change) All we can hope for now is Can Am takes some sales from Yamaha which causes them to re-do the Grizzly and make it better.... competitions is good for everyone. I love the front storage on the HD7 and the USB ports in the storage box is a great idea (I could charge my camera/drone batteries) I thought the 26" wheels looked a bit small though, but like you said - tires are usually the first thing people change (me included) I'm hoping Yamaha changes the Grizzly to a Twin maybe 900-1000 and is competition for Outlander 1000 and them possibly re-do the Kodiak 700 to compete more with the HD7. Also I wish they still made the 450 class, those were a super reliable machine. Thanks for all the videos ! and if yahs ever come to New Brunswick, I'd love to take ya around.
Heard yamaha is about to use a Chinese manufacturer for their future motors. Unfortunately, I'm guessing quality is about to start lacking and I honestly don't think they'll ever go bigger than the 700 they have a 1000cc sxs an 800cc would a good choice. I'm sure they don't want to make a bigger frame
hey man, thanks so much, I appreciate that. Yeah we are pretty lucky to have such a wide range of trails, I didn't even know was a ATV park was until a few years ago haha you'll have to come up and ride the trails !@@dustinmittel348
@Maritimer maybe one day I have a 2014 700. Unfortunately, mice decided to have a winter home in it while I was deployed so it's going to have to go to the shop
Awesome stuff boys! I share Mike's Grizzly bias but CanAm really came through for us fans of the handle bars! Interesting finds and great points about the well established Grizzly and the new kid on the 700ish block!
I will take Yamaha reliability over features.. I don't want my stuff broke down on the trail or at the dealer after warranty is gone because it's falling apart!
Even with the warranty, it could still be a pain in the ass and parts could be back ordered. You just never know how long it’s going to be at the shop.
@@danlux4954right on! Both are great bikes. I’ve got a 9 year old outlander 650 that has been great. A lot of of my buddies use the grizz and have great luck too. Cant go wrong with either. Big fan of the outlander power though, it’s noticeable from the grizz. Not sure how this new outlander 700 single compares to my 650 twin. Love the twin motor.
Yup, and after owning both the KingQuad has better fit and finish than the grizzly as well. I rank the KQ number 1 by a hair for overall quality and fit and finish even over the grizzly.
Personally I’m a griz guy I like the big front tires im a guy that’s split with mud ridding, river crossing, rock climbs and rough terrain all to get to hard to access lakes for fishing. I barely open up the atv over 70km/h and the tires only start to suck after 60km/h if I wanted a trail racer I’d get a renegade for 4x4 or a raptor for clean trails, I find the griz a all around atv and perfect for me I like the handling on the griz always fun doing a little slide on a long wide corner.
Great to see Can Am continuing to push the atv market forward. I can’t help but think the Yamaha is gonna be a lot more reliable though. What is the Can Am gonna be worth in 5 years compared to the Grizzly?
Toyota is the 2nd largest stake holder in the Yamaha company so the Yamaha basically is a Toyota Yamaha also helped Toyota create a few stuff on the Lexus Lfa.
I bought the Hunting Edition this summer and I already own a Grizz. I looked at the Grizz EPS Camo but it retails at $12.5K. My Can-Am was $10.9K with all the extra features.Better value on the Can-Am. Overall I agree with everything except fit & finish. It's terrible on my Can-Am, and others have the same issues. Hopefully that gets fixed for next year. Power is much greater than the Grizz. The HD7 leaps forward when in Sport mode. For such a heavy machine, 900+, it handles better than the Grizz as well. Complaints? Winch is too low and too far back The front box is great but I wish it had one latch, vice two. Trying to open it while holding something in your hand you want to put in it is difficult. The "glove" box is tiny and they don't even give you the magnet to attach to your phone that will hold it there. Fit & finish: Panels have big gaps, bumper was received bent, and decals are adhered in the wrong location. Easy panel removal for maintenance becomes difficult with skid plates
I am looking, this side by side review to awesome. Thanks. I am going Can Am for now 2024.. Polaris,, no way. Honda,, no innovation. CFmo. Heck no. Suzuki, nope. Kawasaki, not. Kymco, no power.
Would it be fair to compare the base model with steel wheels of The Outlander with the Kodiak 700? I would like to know top speed differences. And who doesn't like riding wheelies? Which one is better at that? What about the 80 lb weight difference?
Great video guys. I own a 2016 Yamaha grizzly 700 that had the snake bitten Subaru engine. Dealer did a nice job with the recall notice. 8000 miles, 1100 hours and still going strong. Curious to see how the HD7 pro holds up after several years. The grizz has such a plush feel, handles amazing, and feels like there's always extra power available when you need it. The 700 class is really a sweet spot in my opinion in terms of weight, nimbleness, and power. I ride solo in some pretty desolate places so reliability is a must. I bring a bunch of tools and survival gear but thankfully never had to use them with my grizz. If you want true reliability, the Honda Foreman is great but it's only 520 cc and doesn't quite have the plushness and ergonomics of the grizz. Would love to see how the hd7 reliability is in 2 years. If so, i may consider switching. Thanks for the great video
What about the kingquad 750 ? Id like to see a comparison must be more close to that canam when we talk about power and reliability great video as always and thanks for all thoses reviews love it
I have a 2016 700 grizzly that is 8 years old and have the same factory battery and zero issues I was afraid of the new 700 engine cause they went back to 686 I don't understand why but I've had zero problems from mine 😮 but I really wish honda would make a 700 or 750 Rubicon I would buy one for sure the grizzly is loud cvt but it's never let me down or I never thought I needed more power.
Ok, let's skip right to "RELIABILITY" it's actually the Suzuki King Quad 750, then the Yamaha Grizzly 700. CanAm is way down the list! Out in the middle of nowhere RELIABILITY is everything! Good thing CanAm has the charging ports so your ready to charge your phone to call for help.
Yamaha has been milking the grizzly for a long time, its about time they fed the beast a proper meal to combat these can ams. The potential is there, they know it, just do it already Yamaha!!! Your losing your fan base!!!
Both great machines, but we'll see how well the Outlander will hold up in the long run. Yes, the Outlander has all the toys but Yamaha is the reliable, proven machine. When you buy a car, a Hyundai will give you all the options for less and the Toyota that costs more will give you less options for more, however, the Toyota will give you years of reliable service. Great video and great products
if its not proven than u can take that money for trip and add bit extra if u needs get towed home lol nice bike though but i take my grizzly till there proven more
Still have to go with the Grizzly. The wet clutch is the main thing and it can be modified has well has the primary clutch can be modified for more low gearing and more high gearing. And other things or better on the Grizzly. But when you start talking 2 up can am is the winner. My Scrambler XP1000 S now is the Mega Quad now with a 70" wheelbase and 58" wide and it's hill climbing ability is off the chart.
Is the Can-Am seat softer and or more plush than the Yamaha? I'm really interested in getting an outlander 700. Currently have a 19 grizzly 4,500 miles on. So far no issues. I ride by myself a lot so reliability is definitely on my mind and has me hesitant on the outlander. I think the grizzly overall is the best machine on the market, but I've never tested the 700 yet.
The seat is comfortable. As you can note in our video, our biggest hesitation is that the HD7 Pro's reputation is unproven so far. I'm a huge fan of the Grizzly and that is awesome you've packed on that kind of mileage.
I disagree. Yamaha hands down for the 2 most important reasons. Having to adjust eps on Can Am sucks. Yamaha is perfect at all times without adjustment. Two. 4 wheel drive. Can Am is great most of the time. Yamaha is perfect at all times. It's that simple.
no, i think it is "on-command" unless yamaha and polaris switched taglines for their 4x4 systems.. the "can-am hump" thing is way exaggerated in my opinion. are they the smoothest shifting? no, but i never found them hard to shift and most of the time i dont have to rock them to shift them. lubricate the linkage and it gets better. instead of fake shine in a can, people need to do more lubricating and maintenance. the tires that come on a standard grizzly are much better and make a noticeable difference in handling, suspension and even acceleration over the mud tires on the Se and XTR. id like to try the new outlander, but i doubt it will be as playful and light on its feet as a grizzly. i never rode a more playful 4x4.
As someone who has had to use canam 570 pros for 6 years at work to two trailers the canam shift gate was garbage and a pain in the ass forever fighting it. Especially with the terrible turning circle on the canam. Night and day difference with a kodiak 700.
@@jameshogg601 i must have gotten lucky.. several times. i never had to constantly shift them like a person that plows with theirs, but i never found them difficult, a little notchy though. lubricating the shift linkage properly helps and isnt a hard thing to do
@powersportsenthusiast1986 to be fair it was fine till you are in a hurry and sods law thats when you would fight it. Though to be fair with the yamaha when it was hot you would find it would jump as you went from P to H/L past R when the idle was a touch high.
I run a 2017 grizzly and i dont know why i would ever at this point buy a new one , same power and id uave to pay for all the nice upgrades ive done. 5000 km and running strong
How come not to add the Suzuki King quad 750 to this shootout? Although I know it seems like a Suzuki has definitely taken the back burner the last several years
@@dirttraxtv oh that's not a surprise. It's pretty sad, seeing how they used to be so competitive in different classes. Hopefully this will kick Yamaha in gear to make some improvements 😁. Loved my old grizzly and still think it's a top notch ATV
@@fistcover3831 In my area, king quad was more expensive than the grizzly. Also, I find it rides a little rough as compared to my grizzly. Ease of maintenance is about the same on grizzly. Suzuki quality is top shelf though.
Yamaha's belt drive system is the most reliable bar none. I had a Kodaik for 13yrs that I punished. Plowing a 1/4 mile private drive in northeast ohio, pulling logs out of the woods every spring, put it through every mud hole I could find on the trails. Still had the original belt when I sold it. And not 1 drop of water ever got into the belt drive.
First, thank you so much for taking the time to do this shootout and giving love to the ATV segment which deserves it and needs it. On the other side, something I and many others always want to know is how the machines hold up in water. So in other words, how well is the belt sealed? The Grizzly 700 I owned in 2011 could be submerged over the handlebars and the belt wouldn't get wet. I'm not asking you guys or any reviewer to do something 'that' extreme, but maybe up to the seat? Do these new Grizzly's hold up just as well in that regard? And also obviously, how does the Can-Am belt do in the same situation? How are their belts sealed? It's something no one ever does or talks about and I hate it because SO many riders like myself have a lot of creeks/ponds/swamps etc that we have (and enjoy) to go through but we don't feel like always having to snorkel our ATV's. It's the main reason I got rid of my 850 Sportsman SP because that thing couldn't hardly go in the water barely past the floorboards or its belt would slip like crazy and why I sold it and got a 520 Rubicon DCT EPS which can go as deep as I want it to go with zero issues due to no belt and excellent factory sealing. Sorry for the long rant. Thank you guys for doing this.
There is a video out there with a 700 Xmr that he took the water right up to the base of the handlebars and it stayed dry. I know on my Grizz it got wet when I went to the top of the ignition key.
Good evaluation! The Zilla's rule in this area of bush & mud, no complaints about them from me! Also if you guys slowed down & rode like 90% population that buy these machines you would see how that softer stabilizer bar gives more traction & less 3 wheel action on uneven tight trails, there's always a compromise I sometimes feel you guys don't address.
can am is much heavier and less ground clearance. yamaha is lighter, better EPS, separated front/rear brakes, more GC, better 4wd/diff lock, better lights and not surprising, durability. tough terrain capability is also gonna be better on the grizz. The ground clearance, approach and departure angles even with apples to apples tires is better on the grizz. I dont know where they get these GC numbers from but the grizz has more even GC under whole machine front middle back and under floor boards. I bought my grizz cause I wanted an atv that felt like an ATV.
The can am also have separated brakes. Also diff lock, including the viscodiff when in ordinary 4wd-mode. The new ledlights are far superior to the grizzlys. The EPS has three modes so you can customise your ride, instead of letting yamaha decide it for you. More power. Lower low gear. The ground clearance depends on tires, but you will fit 30" on the Can am without any modifications. But yes. They have gone up in wheight by alot. Even tho it doesnt feel like it when you ride it.
Both really nice Machines . I’ve now owned them all sans CF Moto. Can’t go wrong with a grizzly for sure and the Ultramatic is the best cvt in the business, however the cvt on my KingQuad 750 was just as smooth and buttery as my Grizzly I had before it . The kingquad is king of quality and fit and finish . This is a very respectable attempt at Japanese quality and fit and finish from a North American manufacturer for once . I’m back in big bore power on a 2023 Can Am Outlander 1000R XT though now lol and LOVE it. I don’t expect it to hold up as well honestly but man …..best power steering in the business and I’ve owned a grizzly . IF they’d just build a 1000 Grizzly or 1000 Kingquad……..oh man.
CanAm has been putting that 650cc single in all sorts of machines for years and years. I think its beyond proven. Commander 700, Maverick Trail 700, Defender HD-7, and now the Outlander 500 and 700. Hell I own a Husqvarna motorcycle with that same Rotax 650. Its a solid engine.
Many years ago i had a Yamaha Grizzly 660. The engine was awesome, gobs and gobs of power but everything else was a disaster!! All the CV joints were junk in no time, it ran Hot, and electrical problems galore. Never again!
@@dirttraxtv i will say on yamahas’ behalf, I used to own a Yamaha 700 SRX snowmobile and that thing kicked ass!.. smoothest running, best sounding, very dependable.. it was a great machine. I Put many miles on that thing and Zero problems. Can’t buy those anymore…. Thanks EPA. 😢
I'll stick to proven reliability and the reason why i own a 700 and 2 yamaha waverunners 1.8s . Maybe not the fastest but it'll get me to where I'm going..
another thing about can am if it sits for a month or two the battery will go dead as the electronics drain them . yamaha can sit for a year and still start as the electronics dont drain the battery !!!!
Here's a question HD7 has ITC modes... what mode does the 700 DPS Throttle mode compare to.. not have ITC? Hoping 700 DPS model compares to Sport mode...
Don't get me wrong, I think this was an excellent review & overview of these 2 machines, however I do believe there was a missed opportunity. Ive read in the comments that you weren't able to get access to the Suzuki Kingquad 750 and that's fine. However I noticed you did a video on the Argo xplorer 700 (Kymco MXU700) not long ago. it would've been really nice to see that in this video - to truly see how the "budget" alternative would stack up against more flagship brands. There also isn't enough coverage on Argo products, I feel like a direct comparison to some of the big time names would've been good, and also mightve surprised a few folks in the categories. I'd take that 686 single & ultramatic transmission any day of the week. Could care a less about all these features on the can ams, 3 mode power steering, intelligent engine braking & throttle control all sound like liabilities to me rather than feature. more sensors, more wires, more programming, more controls, more issues & even more troubleshooting. Yamaha are the only manufacturer I've seen advertise a 10 year belt warranty, and that they use marine grade electronic connections in their ATV. Buy once, cry once - you're getting what you pay for.
The Argo was actually slated to be in this comparo, but unfortunately we had to give it back before we had a chance to shoot this. You're right though, it would've been a good addition to this segment.
I’ve got a 2010 Outlander, this year I’ve finally had to replace a few things: CVT intake boot (rubber starting to crack), one CV boot, and the 4x4 actuator fried. I know the Grizz is reliable, but if you keep up with maintenance the Outlanders are great too.
can ams visco lock up on their diffs suck seen them in use and they were stuck in spots a yamaha went through like nothing not sure if can am still using this system
Great video. I like pretty much any ATV from any brand, and I can appreciate what each one was made for and the pros and cons of each. I've always liked the look of the Yamaha Grizzly and can admire how much people that own them seem to love them. For me I didn't buy one in the past due the huge price difference for hp. The 700 was priced like a Polaris or Can Am 850 but only had the hp of the 570's. To me that was important, but not so much for others and that's fine. To each their own. The Can Am easily won on value in this video. I'd like to see a similar style value comparison with the new Yamaha Wolverine X2 1000 and similarly priced Commander XT 1000.
Let's fast forward 10 years later. Yamaha still going strong and the BRP will have been in the shop at least a dozen times, if not more. Now calculate the savings. BRP are plagged with snall issues all the time !!!
I too am biased towards a Grizz. I owned two. I just purchased a 2023 Outlander 1000R. for the 1000. I have a 2007 450 Kodiak. Been through the wringer a few times. Got me home every time. And still running the same stock / original belt. 👍👍
The grizz 700, canam 700, 850, 1000, sportsman 850, 1000 are all great machines. Can't imagine you'd ever be dissappointed in owning any of them. If your in the market go sit on them all and pick the one you like. I own a grizz 700 and a new sportsman 850. I would never sell my grizz and love it but for me the sportsman 850 is better in every way except the grizz might feel a bit tougher built. if you plan to swamp, jump and rip the crap outta them expect to brake something. Any one of those atv's will be sure to bring a smile to anyone who loves atv's and a good bit of power. Love the reviews you guys do!!! but do think in all these review it would be nice to know what yall ride as your daily atv'er :)
Feature number one and the most important; reliability, dependability for years. We all know which one wins there. Grizzlies and Kodiaks are legendary in that area!
Love the Griz. Super interested in watching the CanAm. We see others on RU-vid with plastics fitment issues on Canam, wrong parts from factory, questionable dealer assembly. All things that can be worked out during the first model year, the key is for Canam to work out those issues. My money would got to an HD7 Pro XU. But I’ll wait another year or two before I plunk down cash on any new machine, by then we’ll see if canam has kept pushing the needle
Excellent review. If I lived way up north in Canada or Alaska and hunted 20 miles from the nearest road I may go with the Yamaha, but for someone like me who just rides state trails the Can Am is definitely the right machine. I just bought my second Can Am and I had the first one for 5 years and never had a lick of trouble with it. Actually a buddy bought it from me
I really like them both but I do believe the Yamaha would last longer. I have a 2009 rhino 700 and it still runs like it’s new for 14 years old. The Yamahas have incredible durability and reliability I just don’t think the can am will last 20 plus years like the Yamaha can. I had a older Yamaha grizzly 700 with 18,000 miles and it was still going strong before I sold it.
my 2011 can am put out so much heat i couldnt even ride it in the summer my legs would burn, also the drivetrain noise while riding slow. are those fixed now on a can am product
Awesome! Pretty sure that unit uses the 708 Subaru engine. I never had any issues with mine, but you might get a louder audience telling you different. Have a look at the mileage and wear on the ATV and check the internet for known issues to be aware of. For the record, Yamaha quickly moved back to the Yamaha-built 686 single in the Grizzly which is what is still in use on current models.
@@dominickguerra189 I found it a pain to work on and didn’t like the stock suspension it was way to soft and bottomed out all the time I should of got the xtp I guess for the better shocks . Didn’t like all the grease fittings were a pain and wouldn’t take grease half the time and I found the power steering to numb in any setting didn’t feel any feed back .. and the belt slap sounded like it was going to explode at times .. I owned a 03 grizzly and that thing is still going lol so I grabbed a 2022 model and I do miss that power but 1400 km zero issues zero squeaks better power steering and just more reliable that’s the biggest thing with me but not everyone ..
well said. We swapped machines once at an atv park before he sold it (due to financial reasons) and personally thought the suspension was nice and plush. More than likely because it was a brand new machine and mines a 2015. I didnt like the clunking noises the transmission/cvt made. I will more than likely be a grizzly man for life. Cheers@@dannymacdonnell251
Thanks for the comparison. How about can am two up 700 vs cf moto 800 2 up? Really curious on a comparison. I own 2 touring models, cfmoto 600 and a Polaris 570. Both are great and perfect for 2 up riding. Almost time for a new one though. Your thoughts?
Brought to you by the Canadian government...... I think the grizzly is sharper and the durability of it is bar none. Take your can am and shove it 🤣 That being said I own a Yamaha so I'm bias
$1100 to blurry your vision, omg. everybody is on plans. 60 payments. would you let 19$/month rules your ride and long term investment? Not that i dont like the outlander, but come on ……..
Can’t knock the Yamaha I put 1450 hard KM on my 2021 Grizzly SE, only had to change the oil 4 or 5 times, replace the brakes twice and the whole frame once. I’m thinking of getting the outlander 700 XMR cause it looks cool for the price. Hopefully it’s built better than the Grizzly!
I was torn between these two and went with xtr grizz. Maybe a second quad will be an outlander 700 unless Yamaha comes out with something new in the next few years.
sorry grizz fanboys,but the outlander is hands down better value for money.i bought a honda sxs for it's Honda "reliability". it was a steaming pile of dog dirt. it spent a whole year of it's 4 year life in the shop.proven reliability as a selling feature is a scam
Going to say it time and time again. Until Yamaha can make a properly sealing airbox, I’m not investing. How sad is it that your stock machine with stock mud style tires can’t even properly seal out the elements? -10.
