2010 Yamaha ATV Lineup

Proven, Class-Leading Performance Remains Focus of Yamaha Utility and Sport ATVs

Yamaha today announed its complete 2010 ATV linup. Among the 17 total units a new sport (or maybe we should say Race) ATV is included. Yamaha’s newest quad, the YFZ450X, is designed specifically for the serious trail rider and cross country racer in mind. Below is a brief run down of Yamaha’s 2010 ATV lineup.

Sport Lineup
The YFZ450X is new to Yamaha’s line of top performing sport ATVs and replaces the original YFZ450. The new YFZ450X is 46.1 inches wide making it ideal for trail riding and cross country racing. It isnt just a narrowed 450R, it features optimized suspension and new frame geometry ideal for cross country riding and racing. Like the R, it also features fuel injection, and Yamaha’s exclusive cast aluminum-steel hybrid frame. The light and nimble 450X is designed to carve through tight trails, over tree roots, rocks and almost anything else riders might encounter on a tough GNCC course or weekend trail ride. Both the new YFZ450X and YFZ450R feature the powerful 5-valve DOHC liquid cooled single cylinder 449cc engine and highest sport ATV performance technologies available.

The Raptor legacy continues in 2010 with four models providing a range of size and performance. The smallest Raptor is the best selling youth ATV, the Raptor 90. Next is the very popular Raptor 250, which is the best all-around best selling sport quad. Next is the Raptor 350 then the biggest and baddest Raptor of them all; the Raptor 700R, which is the best selling big bore sport ATV available.

Utility Lineup
2010 Yamaha Grizzly 700 FI EPS 4×4 Yamaha’s Grizzly 700 FI EPS, which by the way was the first ATV to offer electic power steering, continues to be the best selling big bore utility ATV. The Grizzly 700 FI EPS has won numerous awards and shoot-out comparisons with leading features like Yamaha Fuel Injection, Ultramatic® automatic transmission and On Command® 2WD/4WD/4WD with differential lock – all set atop a comfortable ride with fully independent suspension.

The Grizzly 700 FI was the platform for the Grizzly 550 FI EPS introduced last year, which quickly became the best-selling 550-class utility quad. Other popular models in the Grizzly line include the Grizzly 700 FI (non-EPS), Grizzly 550 FI (non-EPS), Grizzly 450 4×4 IRS, Grizzly 350 4×4 IRS, Grizzly 350 4×4, Grizzly 350 2WD and Grizzly 125.

Yamaha’s Big Bear 400 4×4 IRS sets itself apart with ITP Mud Lite tires and a semi-automatic five-speed transmission allowing the rider to choose the right gear for the conditions.
