Yamaha's ALL-NEW 2024 Wolverine X2 1000 | Compact and Value Loaded 

Sounds like it’s basically what everyone wanted when the 2015 Wolverine was announced.

My family and I like and have really enjoyed our 2017 CanAm 800 Commander. It’s been a reliable and durable buggy for hunting duty, trail riding, and managing our 41 acre northern Michigan property. But I have to admit, this new Wolverine X2 1000 is the machine that has me seriously thinking about an upgrade!

Absolutely love it ! Way to go YAMAHA! 💙🇺🇲

They really should consider putting the 850 in the Viking. I know it's a utility sxs, but that poor, one cylinder, 686 sometimes just isn't enough. Maybe do like what they're doing here; still offer the 700 for those that don't necessarily want or need the extra power and want a little more value, and the 850 for those that do

This looks great. I really hope Yamaha continues this trend of higher performance quality and value - the big two BRP and Polaris are not offering much value in this price range. CF-Moto is catching up to this market position fast though so they had better keep the products coming.

I absolutely LOVE this SXS !!!!! for me it's just perfect, it reminds me my 2015 Wolverine 708 R, and it was the SXS I prefered on the 3 I got one after one. probably one day I will buy one... maybe... Now I wait for a longer video by Dirt Trax with all the ups & downs you will find on this SXS. Thank you so much to make so good videos my friends !

Great video informative information everyone was wanting to know

We test drove a x4 the other day. Really nice machine, quiet, comfortable has all the room and seats for the family. If we didn’t have so many kids I’d get a x2 1000 in a heartbeat!

Thx went out and bought one. love it. thx for the review.

Definitely hard to beat for the money

Bought the '23 Wolverine x4 850 XT-R to bring family/friends if available. Awesome ride for us. Happy Trails to all

Nice unit

well done ST. I currently have a 2018 2seat Wolverine and love it ! BUT always looking for a bit more power and top speed. sounds like this is what I want. what is the noise complaint I keep reading about ? will it be much louder in the cabin then the 708 single ??

Super happy with the 23 rmax2 1000 sport over here in eastern washington. I really am impressed with yamahas quality. Only thing is limited aftermarket. Ive only found 1 exhaust system and ya have to get a almost $500 tuner... come on lets get some stuff out for us yamaha riders please!

Serious? Literally planet earth is screaming for a twin cylinder grizzly and they poop this out lol

So when is the x4 1000 coming out?

Sounds kinda like a kodiak and grizzly, not as much extra stuff that you don't really need depending on what you're doing.

another awesome sxs from Yamaha ! I love my Rmax although I keep saying I do miss the ground clearance I had with my 2021 CanAm Maverick Sport XXC. i Mentioned that on a fb post to one of the Yamaha USA guys and they said they rarely bottom out on a Rmax...... again I love my Rmax and would never buy any other brand again but I think the Yamaha developer's should come up here to Ontario and ride some of our rocky trails ...lol

Were sway bars disconnected on the vehicles in this video?

Want!

when you say its shorter in stature does that make the cabin size and legroom less?

I've had Yamahas in various forms since 1963. I never walked home due to a failure that could be attributed to the machine. A few flats and being caught in a cloud burst. But little else. I'm quite interested in this machine. Perhaps next spring. One question. Will it run 30 inch tires 7:10 without modification? Thank you and excellent work.

I love the looks of the Yamaha Rmax, and this new X2 looks to be a winner. These Yamahas have a great look, top notch quality, good power and suspension. I was on the edge of buying one but as a taller guy with wide shoulders, the shoulder bolsters are just not good. they just make you feel cramped in the cab. I wish yamaha would incorporate them into a taller door design that would give your shoulders a couple extra inches of room.

Few thing this bike needs is better upper half doors, ones with a frame. More leg room I'm short and my legs get cramped. Something to make it more quiet inside. And better seats like in the rmax

After spending the last year on a Yamaha Grizzly I have been considering purchasing a Yamaha SxS. I have never driven a SxS so I went to a local dealership today and test drove a 2024 X2. My impression was mostly negative. At first I thought the machine had problems because it would not move until the engine was revved up to 4k or 5k RPMs. Once it got rolling I felt like I had to keep the RPMs way up to gain any speed. It was pretty loud. At one point I had to stop and make sure I was not in low gear. I drove around a vacant lot with the engine screaming at what sounded like +4k or 5k RPMs and was only moving about 10 or 12 mph max. There is no way I could tolerate that for hours on end while trying to enjoy the Utah back country. I guess I really did not know what to expect and maybe a SxS isn't for me. They seem to be very useful machines, but I just did not feel connected to this one like I do the Yamaha 700 I ride almost every weekend. I just could not imagine trying to have a relaxing trail ride with all that noise and high RPMs. Seems really hard to finesse around / over obstacles since you are either revving at 5K or at a dead stop. They won't lug over stuff like a Yamaha 700 cc single will. Maybe I will go and try another machine just to make sure but at this point I could not justify the investment. Now I think I have a better understanding as to why SxS tear up the trails so badly. You have to rev the hell out of them to get any power.

I’m still waiting on a 50” Yamaha machine. 60” is just to wide for the atv trails I’m on.

what side by side would you recommend for 6-4 300 lb guy

Does it have a low range?

Damnit I bought an RMAX2 SE yesterday... Well the X2 1000 seems not available on Belgium website. But would have choosen that one cause it smaller... Belgium is a small land, not with routes like US or CA lol... Then again it's "only" 3 or 4??? inch smaller (7.5-12cm) so phew.... almost hated myself hehehe...

I can still get more with the CFMoto ZForce 1000 Sport. And at a cheaper price. Cost is everything to me at the moment and I can't pay road-car costs for off-road, dented up fun.

Why use a CVT unless it is cheaper?

I am torn between the X2 and a Talon???

Sometimes LEss is wHat the patent NeeDS.

Yamaha needs to release a completely redesigned YXZ.

I test drove the 850 and 1000. Both nice machines for the price but I could not believe the cabin noise of the 1000 at any speed. The dealer recommended communicators, but im not sure I want to run them to talk to someone 18 inches away at 30kmph. That being said the 850 was a touch lame. Perhaps wait and hope yamaha addressesthis issue.

Now just put the 850/1000 in the grizzly and Kodiak

For the peasants!!! Have your cake and eat it too!

Four seater

Why a belt system? Cmon!? Is honda the only one doing things proper? I am they biggest yamaha fan you'll see, but just don't trust the belt system yet.

So it's basically an 850 with a 1k engine and higher price tag

No such thing as reasonable pricing anymore…

.

I'm slightly disappointed I was hoping for a Turf mode

Get pro armor tires on there and get away from that maxxis garbage some of the worst tires I've ever seen. Overpriced and not even made in the USA

Finally something for the "high price cry babies".

I have a 2021 rmax 1000 only thing I wouldn't throw in the bin is seats and fox shocks... Motors run hot turning circle is horrendous power steering is junk CVT trans is joke... Don't really have much great to say about it.. I'm in Australia and the Honda pioneer 1000 is definitely my choice of buggy! Polaris in Australia is absolute junk aswell there expensive to maintain and when we are out on the farm clutches are always failing.. DEFINITELY KEEN TO SEE WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT THE HONDA
