I absolutely LOVE my 24’ Griz. I’ve used it on faster trails riding with buddies on dirt bikes and it’s so much fun. It handles so well. Can’t give it enough praise!
buying a new bike in a couple of weeks. I'm torn between King Quad 750, Rubicon, and Grizzly. Right now I have them ranked King Quad #1, Grizzly #2 and Rubicon #3, but that order changes every time I think about it. These videos are very informative and help a lot, thanks!
Put a little grease on the foam surface that seals the air filter to the front of the air box. Extra insurance on sealing dust out. I do this on every off road vehicle I’ve owned for 30 years. Never an issue.
I appreciate the videos on the Grizzly Jacob! I own a 2022 Rubicon TRXFM6 (third one), and I just picked up a new 2023 Suzuki KingQuad 750. I almost bought the Grizzly, and I still really like them. In the end, I went with the KingQuad because the fit and finish and value. I got a great rebate and a dealer incentive. Combined with what I see as reliability and serviceability equal to the Grizzly, I couldn’t pass up on the KingQuad. I love the KingQuad so far, but like you, I am cautiously optimistic and time will tell how it holds up. Anyway, I’m a Honda guy at heart (love my Rubicon), but I’m very interested in these 700 big singles. The CanAm Outlander is getting lots of great reviews on their new 700 but after handling it and test riding it, I knew it wasn’t for me. The Outlander felt very cheap and while it was fun to drive, I just don’t trust the reliability. Unpopular opinion, but I think the Outlanders are ugly, so there’s that too. Anyway, I can relate to many of your thoughts and comments. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
I appreciate it. Yeah it sounds like you have a nice collection of the best you can get. We will see what happens with the outlander 700’s. I wasn’t a fan of the way they ride either or the single brake lever. I don’t think they are a bad machine though and I bet that they will last a very long time hopefully
Funny I was gonna buy the bike in front of the Yamaha first and decided to take my buddies nice 23 blue rubicon and I didn’t even get her in 4th and brought it back to him and said thanks for saving me 15k as the mini screen, old brake leaver parking brake, lack of power in the snow and just the way it changed gears. I then went straight to Yamaha and have the exact same bike as yours. She got 300kms on her now and just done its first oil change and don’t regret getting her at all. Much much better bike than Honda has out right now.
Exactly this. We’ve always been a Honda family but if feels to me that Honda is sitting too comfortable on the hill of the namesake they’ve created to push further and really update their quad. 95%positive I’ll be getting a Griz.
The 10” wide front zillas are my #1 complaint. After a few thousand km my rear fenders are pelted to absolute dog sh:t. I have the oem Yamaha flares and they don’t help with the rocks. They do keep the mud off decently though.
I know you had a bad experience with the Suzuki you had. But the king quad is really reliable. I have a 2008 kq 750. And love it. I ride hard but also take care of it. Got 4000km with no issues at all. I have seen them with 60’000miles on them. And still going strong. Dirt obsession did a review and comparison with the grizzly you should check out. Just saying. Suzuki is right there with Yamaha and Honda for reliability and quality. In my opinion anyway.
What do you think of stability between your grizzly and rubicon. On side hills or deeper ruts, uneven terrain. I was wondering on that, as I think the wheelbase is 2 inches wider (46ish on rubicon, and 48ish on grizzly i believe), and greater wheel travel for articulation of axles would potentially make the grizzly a more stable machine. Let me know your thoughts and experience between the two machines.
Talking about stickers my buddies 23 rubicon has been brought back to the dealer 3 times for the stickers peeling off by the knees where the panel has a line going through the rubicon sticker. I can see them changing the panel as the sticker will never stay on from what I can see
When i comes to maintenance, what is your favorite make and model? I've never owned an ATV and am thinking about getting one. I'm almost 60 so I wouldn't be riding it roughly, just around my acreage and maybe on some trails if I can find some to ride. Thanks
Yamaha and there 10 year belt warranty. I’ve owned Yamahas since o3 the first year of the ultramatic and 6 or so grizzly 660’s 1 708 and now a 2024 686 and I’ve never had to replace a belt on anyone I’ve had so that’s hard to pass up.
I see a gallon of rotella oil on your work bench. Do you use that oil in ur atvs? If so what weight u using? I own a 2023 Suzuki King Quad 750 AXI and I use the T6 5w40 in it. I have had good luck using Rotella in many bikes and atvs with wet clutches. Just was wondering if you use it and what your thoughts were?
I got the same one I don't like it hate it the bolts for the skid plate came off few bolts on the plastic rock broke front fender from rock from the tire and I only had it 2 mouths back brakes are not working properly will never get another yamaha and stulls in water was only at foot well😢
Still the grizzly. I want more than that. The 680 is sluggish snail. If I see an updated 700 with more or the same power as the grizzly with a 5 or 6 speed DCT. I’ll be all over it

@@JacobOverman a 700 was pretty much what I meant I just said the 680 because that was the biggest they've already got. I read a comment somewhere a guy said some honda place in Pennsylvania says they have a 700 coming out. I believe sales would go way up for honda with two things. A bigger atv and 4×4 option on the recon.
@@JohnnyRebLaI just hate how cheap the Hondas went with the 2" dash no park and automatic transmission shifts so hard for the first few min of driving!!!
New bike and problems with not starting certain times. That,s not good if you go on long rides. Bolt coming out already. I taught they where great bikes I heard before now. 100,000 miles his that what you said your going to try put on it . Done great job on explaining the 2 bikes I must say. You no alot about them. Would you pick the honda over the yamaha 450 if just need something cheaper and to get you from point a to point b. They all break by the sound of it. I no you said your rough on them but if you wasn,t what,s the most reliable to pick.
The Honda isn’t much cheaper but for reliability I would take Honda and definitely over a 450. I’ve had a 450 Yamaha. Disgusting. Not a fan at all. I like the grizzly so far but we will see
I see what you’re saying 450 because they are cheaper. They are cheaper for a reason. Not comfortable in my opinion. Sorry ground clearance and not reliable in my experience.
Hello if somebody out there are able too tell me who is making engine for the grizzly is that yamaha or another company i no between 2015 to 2019 suzuki was making the engine for the grizzly thank you
Long videos are hard to keep the attention of new generations. Id prefer focusing this type of video on breakdowns or potential problems ride confort e.t.c rather than new mods you want to do or comparing to honda but was still a good video thanks for sharing. I really like your goal of 100000 miles highest mile atv review currently is a 40k mile honda to me even if you had a goal of 50k miles then moved to a different brand id be most interested to see. My personal favorite atvs are can am 700 and arctic cats 600 eps or xt i think having smaller tires would help the longevity of the engine plus doesnt take as much power to get them to move cheaper to replace and better handling on windy trails.

I was told by a Yamaha dealer that the reason why you have a halogen light on top was that it cuts through fog and dust better than led.
That’s what I heard. I knew there was a reason for the bulb to be halogen
I got faith that you and the Grizzly will make it to 10k.
I think we will make it with ease

Love these reviews of the grizzly
I appreciate it!
Make sure you also post videos of you riding the grizzly in between the thousand mile reviews. We like seeing it run!!
Will do!

Good to know. I plan on changing out the zillas eventually
@@JacobOverman I do as well but tire prices are nuts currently.
I had the 2016 version and loved it except for how short it is. Waited for a 2-up but Yamaha refuses to make one.
I have a grizzly 2007 700 with over 17500km on the clock and still running without any problems
That’s great to hear!
Please do a comparison! These are the two machines I am considering.
Talking about the honda rincon, Im sure you've seen news of the 2025 rubicon 700...Rincon with rubicon plastics..
I know you had a bad experience with the Suzuki you had. But the king quad is really reliable. I have a 2008 kq 750. And love it. I ride hard but also take care of it. Got 4000km with no issues at all. I have seen them with 60’000miles on them. And still going strong. Dirt obsession did a review and comparison with the grizzly you should check out. Just saying. Suzuki is right there with Yamaha and Honda for reliability and quality. In my opinion anyway.
I’ve seen the video. I’m sure they are reliable but around me, there is no dealers close, and I also prefer the look of the grizzly

Let me know your thoughts and experience between the two machines.
Stability I would say is pretty similar to grizzly has more I would say if it came down to it. Not a huge difference
Talking about stickers my buddies 23 rubicon has been brought back to the dealer 3 times for the stickers peeling off by the knees where the panel has a line going through the rubicon sticker. I can see them changing the panel as the sticker will never stay on from what I can see
Look at the brute force 750. I was a Honda guy for 40 years
When i comes to maintenance, what is your favorite make and model? I've never owned an ATV and am thinking about getting one. I'm almost 60 so I wouldn't be riding it roughly, just around my acreage and maybe on some trails if I can find some to ride. Thanks
Honda I would say is easier, oil, brakes, valve adjustment etc. can’t go wrong either way.
Yamaha and there 10 year belt warranty. I’ve owned Yamahas since o3 the first year of the ultramatic and 6 or so grizzly 660’s 1 708 and now a 2024 686 and I’ve never had to replace a belt on anyone I’ve had so that’s hard to pass up.
When are you going to make some riding videos of you on the grizzly?
I see a gallon of rotella oil on your work bench. Do you use that oil in ur atvs? If so what weight u using? I own a 2023 Suzuki King Quad 750 AXI and I use the T6 5w40 in it. I have had good luck using Rotella in many bikes and atvs with wet clutches. Just was wondering if you use it and what your thoughts were?
Been using the 15w-40 t4 has been fine.
I use that in my 04.5 lly duramax
I got the same one I don't like it hate it the bolts for the skid plate came off few bolts on the plastic rock broke front fender from rock from the tire and I only had it 2 mouths back brakes are not working properly will never get another yamaha and stulls in water was only at foot well😢
I sprayed some WD-40 silicone
on my gear shifter linkage
Shifts a lot better
Great video
How comfy is it? And can u do a sound comparison with the honda i hunt, work, trail, ride with my machine and i dont want it to be super loud
As an Alabama hunter myself I hunt skyline an Talladega an use my xmr 1000 on 30s monster of a hunting unit very quiet stock
What shifter is that and where did u get it??
So if the rubicon came with the rincon 680 engine which do you think you would prefer that or the grizzly?
Still the grizzly. I want more than that. The 680 is sluggish snail. If I see an updated 700 with more or the same power as the grizzly with a 5 or 6 speed DCT. I’ll be all over it

Isn't the overide button for reverse? Meaning it overides the speed limiter in reverse?
No. Only for difflock
Hello if somebody out there are able too tell me who is making engine for the grizzly is that yamaha or another company i no between 2015 to 2019 suzuki was making the engine for the grizzly thank you
You’re very wrong. Yamaha is making it now. 2016-2018. Subaru made the engines. The 708. Not Suzuki
Everything okay? You Haven't put out any new videos
Yeah, I’ve just been super busy. I’ll try and get back into it soon but I have so much work to do right now.
Great review
Thank you!
What's the left hand lever for?
Rear brake and the right is front.
what size are the grips?
130mm
The 2016+ grizzly 700 will never hold up like the older models
I’m going to find out
LMAO! Base on what? Says you?
I put 7000+ kms on my 2016. Held up very well.
🤦♂️ really?
Yuupers, yur so right what yur talking about..happens to me also..
Almost bought one . Ended up getting a 700 xt. Thing is a Cadillac.
1 month already 750 miles. I know guys who don’t have those miles after a year

I really like your goal of 100000 miles highest mile atv review currently is a 40k mile honda to me even if you had a goal of 50k miles then moved to a different brand id be most interested to see.
My personal favorite atvs are can am 700 and arctic cats 600 eps or xt i think having smaller tires would help the longevity of the engine plus doesnt take as much power to get them to move cheaper to replace and better handling on windy trails.
