2024 Yamaha Grizzly 700 | Kodiak 700 & 450 First look!

Is there any difference other then like color or wheels between 23’ and 24’??

Dirt ObseXXion, did you change the exhaust on your personal XTR Grizzly?

Have yall ever considered doing a review on a Honda TRX700XX? I just got one earlier this year and have honestly been a huge fan of it. Only issue I had with mine was the stock rear sway bar and had one made that made a world of a difference

I would like to see a 2 up atv from yamaha if they did that i would trade in my 23 can am outlander 850.

Ii wish that would make a version of the grizzly to go head to head with scrambler and renegade

just a question how much did you guys pay for your 2022 Grizzly XT-R out the door with taxes and other fees? I want to compare to the prices of used models, just to calculate deapreciation.

I love my grizzly but God when is a 1000 coming 😢

The special additions this year are by far the most hideous colors, especially the Kodiaks blue/tan 🤮. So glad I got the 23. Wish tactical black was available every year…. Great video as always, you guys rock !!!

Yamaha has the 450 and the 700 dialed in perfect. They just don't break. I've been a Honda guy for forty years but they're just not reliable anymore. Constant transmission and power steering issues. Yamaha is just gas and go. The best of everything. Don't change a thing.

Yamaha needs a 1000. Enough with 700 as it’s weak and underpowered

I'd rather have a 5-year-old Grizzley than any new Polaris on the market.

I bought my 2024 Grizzly Friday evening. Already put 100 miles on her.. LoL Beautiful machine! Tires throw rocks like mad though.

I think they should have led lights all the way around

When are you guys going to test out the Suzuki LTZ400. It’s one of the few sport ATVs you guys have never done

So Yamaha will sell a grizzly with zillas on it but when they provide them for a ride event they change the zillas for a real tire. This tells me that Yamaha knows the zillas are garbage but don't mind pawning them off on their customers. I bought 2x 2023 XTRs this year and had to spend another $1k to swap the zillas for a tire that was appropriate for riding out west in the Rockies. I am getting ready to buy a couple more ATVs but having to buy new tires for a new ATV from Yamaha has me reconsidering this brand.

Hi ,
Id like your opinion on your favorite all terrain tire for the grizzly/ kodiak 700. Also what sizes would you recommend? Use will be mainly dirt roads, some mud, hunting, yardwork. Dont want anything too heavy either. I need to get a set asap...Give us your top 2-3 picks, Im sure you've tried many different brands... thanks for the great content and honest reviews!

Literally all your personal opinions is the same reason I think grizzly is the best all around atv on the market

Wrong you are wrong ! Yamaha has been building the longest lasting 4wheelers for years ! Your one bad with the grizzly is a freek!
Honda has been plagued with problems since it’s start from the most dangerous 3wheelers ever ! Soft metal in places that broke, a lot! Could not remove a screw without a hammer driver / or stripping happened! Small 80 or 125 cc where good Honda 4 wheelers ! It took years for the 300EX , to get close on the warrior 350 ! New belt drives are trash for all off road! Have a 350 Wolverine shaft that has miles from 2005, no repairs! Still going! Brothers 300Ex rebuilt 2times!

He info is faulty , that’s why not many here!

Hey, I get it theres only so much content that you can put out on an industry that barley changes year to year but... You content is so good that i need more.! You should look for more things ATV related, to put in to your channel. For exaple, riding destinations. You could easily produce content on what units are best suited or just more fun for different terrain.
Need more content from you! F your stuff was mediocre i wouldnt be sending this post.

Kodiak 700 Ali the way...

im thinking on getting the 2024 xr t next year do you have any videos on the break in proses ive had older models but not a brand new one

advice to yamaha make a big bore sport 4by4 like polaris scrambler and can am renegade

the change id like is a lower price for us here in canada!! of course its because the US exchange rate sucks for us Canadians which is just wrong...because of some imaginary line on the ground but...what can ya do!!!...its likely why its best to just buy from our own stock of can-ams for the best value! And supporting Canadian products! Plus can-ams are no slouch thats for sure!!!

Best channel ever! Your videos are always the best - and though we know the grizzly is the best - I love how you'll still put other quads specs above grizzly when they clearly win a category - I would love to see the camo xtr with a touch more wheelie power ;) other than that and maybe more travel - it's perfect.

Still much prefer Hondas to all others especially given pricing but demand for these machines is enormous right now because of the Russia Ukraine War. Quality should improve dramatically as a consequence here in the USA plus with side by sides as well. Tesla still hasn't released their full sized cyberquad as well which will obviously change the entire Industry when that happens. Surprised not more subs to this channel as well actually.

What about the 450?? And what ones have power steering?

There doing fine, leave em the way they are…..

Post Covid prices make me want to cry. I REALLY regret selling my 2017 sportsman. Would love to come across a good deal on a KQ, Kodiak, or grizzly

I have a 2021 Grizzly XTR that my dad gave me and I absolutely love it. The ride quality is easily one of the best. A lot of comments are saying that Yamaha needs to start sporting the 800+ Vtwin engines, but I don’t think so. Their direct competitors would be the Suzuki Kingquad or the Honda Foremans. What Yamaha should do to modernize their segments is include phone chargers and wireless charging in the center cubbie, like the Can-Am, as well as design the center cubbie not to get too hot.

Besides that, I love my Yamaha. Absolutely great machine.

I'm glad Yamaha doesn't change the Grizzly or kodiak much, i have both and it makes parts easier to get and cheaper and easier to get because they don't change them every other year. Same parts for a long time make it easier to fix something IF it breaks which ours haven't but my wife rolled hers after a deer hit her and parts were easily available.

tbh if Yamaha every came out with a true XMR competitor or a larger engine displacement like 800 or 850 or 1000, then Yamaha would be the best.

Had a Kodiak first, great unit. Then went to a grizzly. Much larger unit. But in my opinion I like the grizzly better.

The big heavy 27” tires are great for mudding but really suck up horsepower and degrade handling. The bike is considerably faster with 25” tires, and less likely to roll over on extreme side hill.

Why don’t you just say they are the same exact models as the last few years with new plastic and colors? It is inexcusable for Yamaha to get this far behind in Performance and suspension.

I sold my 2009 Grizzly 550 EPS years back. Took it all over Colorado trails and had a blast every time. Never had any problems. I'd get a Kodiak 700 EPS if I was in the market.

Don’t change a dam thing with the best quad on the market. All the clowns that want a V-twin are smoking too much pot. Go buy different brand if that’s what you want. We will be just fine over here. 😊

Subscribed! You guys deserve the audience for great, unbiased videos. I still cant decide on a kodiak 700, grizzly 700, or KQ. Whats your opinions? Ive watched your KQ and grizzly video also but would like a personal opinion.

How are these machines in the cold? Do they start alright? I do alot of ice fishing and so need it to start in the cold. Kodiak 700 or grizzly 700? Mainly used at camp and on ice

Over price

I have a 22 SE and was just in the market for another 4x4 quad. Bought a 24 standard, couldn't beat the 10k otd price I got and having to replace the Zilla tires immediately made the choice even easier. I know they look awesome but being pelted by rocks all day long sucks. The weight and reliability of the Grizzly can't be matched, that's why I own 2 and not one and one of another brand. Plus the ride and handling is just awesome. 10 year belt, real 4x4 with locker, separate front and rear brakes. I know SxS's are the thing now, owned a few myself, but I haven't seen a hold over Grizzly even advertised here in the Pacific Northwest in years. Heck it's almost impossible to get a current year they sell so fast. Driving doesn't compare to riding.

I have a 2003 or 04 kodiak limited 400, done a valve lash adjustment thats been all, probably needs a carborator job, but still runs good!! Need to do front wheel bearings still original, seen a few rolls but that old plastic is tough! Can't even tell its been rolled over! Beast of a quad! Never has died on me or broke on me! It goes out west in the mountains ect!

Posting the 2025 models today?

We love our Yamaha Kodiak and Grizzly’s! 🤘

How about a 900 triple super Polar Bear module?

Thoughts on running 28 x 10 x 14 Sedona RipSaw RT tires and wheels on the 2024 Kodiak 700 EPS SE

I'd like Yamaha to use the 689cc twin from the R7 for this chassis

If I was just looking for a 100% cheap utilitarian workhorse, Kodiak 450. If I was looking for an "affordable" utilitaran workhorse, Kodiak 700. If I am looking to spend any amount of money and want the Cadillac of Yamaha quads, Grizzly 700.

Dude, I usually comment with all kinds of goofy stuff, but on a serious note, I do not know why you don’t have more subscribers. Your videos are put together so well and the points you make during the videos are totally valid. You have a lot of knowledge when it comes to all different kinds of, ATVs and the knowledge is based on actual riding experience. Anyway, keep up the good work, and I will continue with my goofy comments on the next video!
