Engine: |
| This 558cc 4-stroke SOHC
4-valve liquid-cooled engine is derived directly from the
industry-leading Grizzly 700 powerplant |
|
Ceramic-composite cylinder liner provides outstanding
durability and heat dissipation; 92mm forged piston is light
and strong and rides on a carburized chrome-moly connecting
rod |
| New cylinder head has been
optimized for this 558cc engine to deliver excellent
throttle response and low-end power, with needle-roller
rocker arms to reduce friction for fuel efficiency and
torque |
|
Gear-driven crankshaft balancer shaft and 4-position rubber
engine mounts reduce vibration |
| Yamaha Fuel Injection uses
a new Mikuni® 40mm throttle body and idle speed control
valve to provide easy cold starts and flawless fuel delivery
in nearly any condition, from below sea level to 15,000 feet |
|
High-capacity aluminum radiator with newly designed fan
motor delivers maximum cooling efficiency and is positioned
high in the frame for optimal protection |
| 5-position shift lever with
L, H, N, R and P gates has a light shifting feel with easy
engagement, providing positive Ultramatic® transmission
control |

ground clearance that’s 5 inches wider than that provided by
ordinary designs |

tough polyethylene for more durability than typical rubber
boots |

Four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes serve up consistent,
longlasting braking power under all sorts of nasty
conditions |
