For those in the market, I have the original grizz 700 from 2007 I bought brand new. Was revolutionary at the time. I have close to 10000km on it, it’s still running like new. I’ve replace normal maintenance items like brakes, bearings etc a few times. Original belt still. Only repairs was a new stator and radiator fan. Replaced the EPs with a used unit because I drowned my bike years ago and water went into the vent tube - clearly Yamaha knew this was an issue so they eliminated the vent tube. Anyway, I burn 0 oil , the 4wd system is the best in the business (same as Suzuki) and there’s nothing compelling enough for me to replace it with. So I bought a 23 wr250f and gave my son the grizz! If you plan on buying one quad and keeping it for decades look at the Yamaha, cheaper in the long run.
bought my big bear new in 2000 never any issues just bought 2023 grizz just wanted to upgrade a bit
Ive got a 2020 with about the same kilometers and she still runs like shes brand new
I have a outlander with 17.000 km on it with just regular maintenance except for when it was rolled then it needed a little more work lol
They are close enough that I will still go with the reliability and belt life of the Yamaha.
my 2014 is still top shape i wont change for canam for sure
@@AdrenalineRushMXcan am is junk bud
agreed!
i got a 2019 grizzly with just shy of 3000 km and its ran perfect the whole time!!! yamaha is way better than can am
@@bigchief-wv7jl got that right my buddy had one I have a kodiak he has had to be towed home by me many times
those Can-Am racks have nothing to do with them being "cutting edge", it all about Can-Am selling their own proprietary accessories.
Actually that's not true as your limited to what can be added due to limited linQ connection points.
@@jasonmorehouse3756 But they're not dumb...they have almost every accessory you will need; but will require the linQ setup. You can buy a box and mount it, but it wont hold right. Besides, if someone spends 2k on proprietary accessories, guess what their next machine is most likely to be...the same brand they have all the accessories for. They know what they're doing. It's business.
@@jasonmorehouse3756 Not really as you don't need to use only LinQ mounts. But if you do, you can buy linQ mounts and attach them to your own boxes.
The racks on the grizzly are wider and more usefull than on our canam.
@@jameshogg601 The racks on this Can-Am are better than the ones on my Grizzly. I'd agree about the older plastic Can-Am racks though.
Grizzly all the way.! More reliable. I've owned both brands over the years. Love yamaha products! You get what you pay. My opinion.
3 grand can buy a lot of belts
Soooo buy the canam xxc1000? Lol
I own both, the Can Am HD7 Pro xU is the best in its class
The real factor is your not comparing both machines with the same tires, mud zillas will reduce your power a little that why i think the can am felt a little faster. Put the mudzillas on the can am then run your speed test. The type of tire makes a huge difference on any machine regardless of manufacture specs around the same cc engine class
The can am puts the power down better , I own a new grizzly and have ridden the new outty
However, if you had the mudzillas on the can am, it would’ve felt just as solid (or better) in the mud too, and that’s about the only spot he gave an edge to the Yamaha. 😉
Being a can am owner, the “10 year belt warranty” was enough to grab my interest. 1600km I’m on my brand new 850 XT Max, and I just replaced my first belt at $280. Hoping this isn’t something I need to add to my maintenance schedule every 6 months.
Biggest thing that showed bias in this video was that speed run, in the Grizz test he let off immediately after hitting 101 as it was still climbing, then said oh ran outta room, then in the can am test he holds it to the bar for like 5 or 6 seconds after 100 to hit 105 and let's face it, these machines are about a bike length apart in acceleration so I don't wanna hear no "I got to 100 so much quicker I had more room to hold it wide open"
You know that's not what happened. Everybody knows grizzlys do 103 on the small tire model and 106 on the Zilla tire model. This hasn't changed in YEARS lol.
@@Amaces1you could buy a lot of belts for 3k, but I'm sure the 850 is closer in price with the grizzly
Those are not mud Zilla tires they are just Zilla look up thee difference
I have had a 2001 Yamaha Wolverine 350 since new and I have ridden it quite a bit at ATV parks, friends property, home property, not to mention I also plow in the winter with it as long as the snow is not more than 8-10 inches or so. The only thing I have had to do beside normal wear items like tires, brakes, and oil changes was a stator and it was very easy to do myself. Aside from complete destruction of the machine I don't see myself getting rid of it. Not to mention it is a relatively light machine and getting it unstuck is way easier than most bigger heavier machines, although I get blown away by the bigger machines I still have so much fun with it and can go almost anywhere my friends go.
If I had to get a new one I would absolutely look to Yamaha first just based on my ATV and snowmobile experience with my Yamahas however I will not deny the Can-Am is a sweet machine. Love the channel guys great videos and if you want me to bring it up I would not say no wink wink😁.
Really appreciate your comparison as I'm looking Really hard into these 2. You make it very easy to decide thank you
Very nice review. Well-made and comprehensive portrait of those models that address almost all the important points. On the other hand, in addition to comfort, capacity and performance, it would be very interesting to also have a more in-depth analysis of the mechanics of the machines. (strength of construction, design, reliability / durability). In short, also having the point of view of a mechanic. Performance is good, functionality is important, but not breaking down on the trail is still essential! Keep up the good work!
Canam full of UJs which are garbage. The grizzly has straight shafts which are no trouble . Running two canam 570s for 6 years we have had plenty of issues. The second was better but both were ready to swap. Cannot fault the rotax engine just everything around it unfortunately.
The deciding factor for me will always be reliability. For that reason the yamaha is the winner. Ive had a grizzly 350 since 2004 and it has been sunk more times than i can remember, it has hauled debris from hurricane Charley, hurricane Irma and now hurricane ian. It has been trail ridden a couple dozen days every year for the last 20 years. Standard maintenance and replacing bearings and joints as necessary. Because of the grizzly, everything i own is yamaha from atv to dirtbike to my boat engine. They stand by their product and all of them are incredible.
their snowmobiles sucks
I still enjoy my 2008 Outlander 500 max xt, I just purchased a set of ITP mud lite tires and look forward to more trail rides!
Loving the powersports channel, Steve!
I’ve been riding Japanese ATVs since 1988. And switched to Can Am 3 years ago to get a 2 up. I’m sad to see the 650 twin disappear. I have a 2020 650 max xt. I ride with a group including a 2019 grizzly, 2021 Kingquad 750, an old Arctic Cat 1000, an 850 Polaris, and lots of 500/570 machines. The Can Am 650 is truly surprising. The Grizzly and Kingquad are noticeably lacking power in comparison and the Arctic Cat is dead even with me until we get above 100 kmph. The 850 Polaris is only about 1/2 a bike length quicker up to 100 kmph as well. I also haven’t had any issues thus far, at 3000km and really have grown to love this machine. It’s an absolute beast at hill climbing with the longer chassis.
Not changing
My 2017 700 Grizz; Tough as nails and never missed a beat as daylong workhorse around the farm👍
I’ve owned 2 grizzlies in the past 6 years.
Ran hotter than normal, backfired on decel, unstable at speed on turns, too expensive
I also own an outlander. Better quad in most regards. This new outlander looks even better.
I’m a dire hard Yamaha and honda fan , but they need to up their game. Watch an see if next year they make major grizz and rubicon improvements
$3k difference makes my mind up pretty easily.
It made it harder for me lmao the grizzly reliability is unbeatable but when you hear a guy talking about better handing more power for less money 😅😅 makes life difficult again
your channel has gotten so good bro way better than the other dirt/offroad channels.
I appreciate that!
The grizzlys come on the second lowest pre load setting on the suspension from factory you need to try adjusting that before complaining. I Decided to go with the 23 grizzly xtr. the canam being the first year with an entirely new design I have no faith there won't be some issues down the road. Not saying the grizz is flawless but I know what I am buying. very happy with it so far.
I went with the grizz camo and added a set of 27" trail trooper tires.
Just got a Can-Am Outlander DPS 700 so far I really enjoy it. Did a lot of reading and looking at different Atv,s and this is the best overall in my opinion
Now that summer is close, did you make a vid of the Sea Doo Switch last year that you can post?
i was wondering if you could do a feature on 6x6s. its difficult to find a summary of pros and cons on youtube.
My 2008 Grizzly 700 is running like new after 16yrs. It has never had any mechanical problems.
Was looking for a grizzly xtr a few years ago could never find one found a can am xt camo and bought it its been great love it would i still like a grizzly yes think they are both good machines
Sick new can am but can’t touch grizzly’s long term history of overall greatness and reliability. Can am will be a few years till we can tell how they hold up long term.
I'd argue that. Their reliability only takes them so far. You can't sit on the same design forever but keep raising the price. The price difference alone makes up for any perceived reliability issues.
Every can am I've used or rode at work, and that's many, has had work done or needed to be done. And don't get me started on plastic racks and shit....but yammy always did me well and I love my 22 grizz
this is what we've all been waiting for!
i've been a long time fan of the Grizz, but this new Canam makes it hard to say no to. Given everything I've seen, the Outlander would earn my money
And that's exactly why I just bought the Outlander Pro HD7. I love it so far.
@@BC_Hunter yea I watched your video. I'd love to fast forward 10 years lol
@@andrewsbbq Well it’s a single cylinder engine so lifespan should be much better. I’m not concerned about it at all.
I am a can am owner and love my bike, but I saw a UA-cam review where the guy was getting into examining the wiring/mechanical stuff under the plastics and said he saw a lot of wires too close to the engine that he moved, saw some zip ties that would cut wiring over time because nothing was put under them to protect the wires, etc. maybe it was poor shop assembly, but that’s something new 500/700 owners should take a look at before too much time riding goes by. 👍🏼. New designs often have minor flaws to correct. Always remember that
Great review. I’ve been looking at these two machines for a couple months now. In my opinion it seems that the Yamaha atv is going in the same direction as their snowmobile division. Nothing has changed and prices go up. The new outlander really has me interested but would like to see how the maintenance aspect is on the new design.
Dang.. I wonder if they will move out of the atv industry.
I own g2 outlander 800 and a g3 700 max. The new can am is way easier to service and seems like it was built around service.
Always been a Honda guy went and looked at the new Hondas, Grizzly, brute and outlanders. Outlander pro xu hd7 is what I ended up with. Can am hit the nail on the head coming out with a true workhorse. Will do anything I need it to on the farm and I can also hammer down on some trails and have a lot of fun. Feels the same power wise as the Grizzly but for less money and more features. Plus can am dealer is only 30min away vs 1.5hrs away. If the yamaha dealer was 30min away it would have been a harder choice I suppose. Both added on about 1500 for shipping and assembly bs. Outlander was right at 11k otd Grizzly was about 14k otd.
There are a lot of trails in the western US that are limited to 50 inches wide or less so the CanAm would be too wide. Plus I don’t like the viscous front diff. A true locker is always better and more reliable. Better sticker price on the CanAm though. I have been a Yamaha owner for 20 years and have had zero issues. That’s hard to beat.
Some of the CanAm models are coming with a locking option for the viscous system. I don't have any experience with it but have seen it in the show room on new units.
Can’t go wrong with either…. Let’s ride!
I have owned nothing but yamaha's for 30 years. Used to race motocross. Now I am older and ride atv's around my property.. through the trails, etc. The grizzly is the gold standard, for sure. But I am getting ready to trade in my grizz on the new outlander pro. Only live once, I want to try everything. I am impressed with innovation, and you gotta hand it to Can-Am, there are a lot of cool innovations on the new outlander. My hope is that it will be as bulletproof and reliable as all of my yamaha's have been. I used to work at a dealership as a salesman when I was in college that sold honda, yamaha, kawi, and polaris. I remember a grizzly that was traded in, and the guy openly admitted that he had it for 8 years and never changed the oil!! When we drained the oil out of it, it wasn't oil anymore. It was some greenish mixture of water, oil, sludge, and who knows what other liquids. It was nasty. The quad had like a zillion miles on it. The engine STILL ran like it was a new one. The Japanese know how to build a machine, you can't kill them. I am excited to try a new brand.. the Outlander looks impressive.
Grizzly and Kodiak 700 top speed are 108ish kph too, so the canam is the same, just gets there a bit easier. Surprising considering it's over 100lbs heavier
I am curious if the new belt system, well new(er) to their atv's is any more reliable than the old system?
I want to support CanAm (I’ve owned nothing but SkiDoo snowmobiles thus far) but between these two, I would go for the Grizzly. Fit, finish, and quality is good on BRP products, but it’s not Yamaha good, and I would pay the premium for that.
same here, i own skidoo and can am ryker but grizzly wins that one
It''s the steel rack that makes me want/need the Yamaha for ranch work.
Can-am came to play with this one. I think it's a great ATV and would consider it since it's almost caught up to the Grizzly. The Grizz needs an update and a price reduction. The price doesn't justify the bike any longer. The Grizz has a locker, great power steering, and a belt warranty that nobody want to match. The Can-am is now a better ride. The power seems slightly better. The clearance is better. The air cleaner is way better and the ergonomics seem better and that will be felt at the end of the day. The big thing here is they're both so close now that the price could sway buyers. It's got me thinking.
It's obvious you already choose Can am before the shoot out, Yamaha please do NOT fix what isn't broke!!! Go yamaha
I had the unfortunate experience of owning a brand new 2017 grizzly 708 and had nothing but troubles. 3 4x4 switches, 3 engine jobs(shimming x2 and factory recall) countless jugs of oil and all on 8000kms. I just traded her in and got the new 24 grizzly se black silver and teal and absolutely love it. Love the square tire setup as you can now carry a spear that is compatible with front and back wheels. I do like the look of the tire and wheel package but the rims are so pretty I hate to ding them lmfao and the tires are a bit rough on regular atv trails so I might change tires for something with a larger bead lock as to lessen my rim damage. So far I got 150kms on the new machine and she is just drinking the fuel hopefully is because she is breaking in I don’t know.
Ya that 16-18 708cc was a let down. 686 was/is bullet proof.
Nice seeing the signature yellow on the Can Am. Been a while.
I've never owned a can am so I can't speak on them,but I've had a 1999 grizzly 600 and now have a 2015 grizzly 700 and love it!!
Also the Yamaha has a problem with the air box getting dust inside if using on dirt roads a lot. That was for 2023 not sure if they fixed it for my bike but I will be replacing that with a upgraded one and add exhaust tip and programmer. Maybe down the road I’ll do the upgrade clutch kit as I hear it wakes the bear up with all this upgrades!!
This machine got me excited and almost got one over the 2023 grizzly. But being a first model year I passed and picked up the Grizz. If they hold up well maybe my next will be one.
@ 9 minutes, I wonder if the tires the Grizzly comes with affect the acceleration. Big lugs, bigger diameter, possibly?
The Yamaha doesn't blow away in specs and raw performance, but they last forever.
Those black flies are no joke! 😮
I ordered a new 700xt, it was alot of comparing since I really like the grizz, and brute force. The price is what settled it for me. Hopefully reliability is there long term.
It’s not gonna be trust me might wanna cancel that and get a grizzly.
@@JoshuaOverman 3000 is a lot of repairs. 'll take my chances.
@@JoshuaOvermanmy friend and I both bought quads at the same time in 2016. I bought an outlander 570 max Dps and he bought a grizzly 700. We ride them pretty hard and they both have about 13 000km on them.
Power wise they are close. Top end I’m faster and he’s got a bit more off the line.
Power steering I give to the grizzly.
Comfort I give to the can-am. I’ve replaced one rear cv axle seal and the engine still runs like new.
The grizzly runs tired and he’s actually had more issues than my can-am.
Overall both great machines. We both decided to buy new ones lately. He went with the Grizzly and I went with the outlander.
I live in the mountains I need a wheeler for work and hunting and it can’t brake down on me 40 miles back in the mountains. I’ll take the grizzly all day every time.
Only reason I went back to a grizzly is the cvt. I’m looking for dependability not speed. Canam and Polaris have belt issues and Polaris has a big problem with bushings. My friend has 2000kms on his 22 850 Polaris and had to replace most of his bushings and tie rod and maybe a wheel bearing not sure but I was 3 things in 2000 Kms
BRP might be cutting edge but reliability isn't good. I went back to Yamaha after seeing all my friend's with BRP issue's. ( engine and belt)
Can Am’s reliability is great, look at Baja, mud nationals and gncc races total domination. When pushed to the limit you can’t beat a Can Am.
Yamaha needs to do something about their prices and numbers of dealers in each state.
The YAMAHA has the square tire setup 27x14x10 with the dedicated mud tire and huge lugs, it will bring speed down but worth it for off road and real world atv use
I've owned yamaha's for years and had a Can-am '22 X3 Turbo RR. Loved both machines. My '14 Grizzly 700 had over 6k miles and only went through brakes and tune ups, but ended up adding a lot of mods to it still with no issues. The Can-am X3 was the same way. The Can-am 700 is a "new" machine from the ground up. I'd be curious to see how it holds up in the reliability dept and not just from people's prior experience with other machines. Looks like a lot of people already had their minds made up before the can-am has even had enough time to prove itself.
The 2016-2018 Grizzly 708cc was plagued with problems so every manufacturer can have their ups and downs at times. Ya, yamaha has a pretty reliable formula that works well, but they are also on a 20+ year update cycle which is annoying. If it ain't broke don't fix it is fine, but you should be able to make incremental changes pretty regularly without having to wait a decade without a major update.
Owned lots of these machines over the years and i think its fairly unanimous amongst people entrenched in the ATV space if you want reliability and dependability the Grizzly and King Quads are without a doubt the top 2 ATV's. They dont break and they don't require you to buy aftermarket parts such as breaks, tires, suspensions and sparkplugs like Can-Am. They come ready. If you want performance and technology get a Can-Am or a Polaris. If you want something that works well, doesn't break and won't nickel and dime you over 5-7 years of ownership get the Grizzly or King Quad.
Always been a big fan of the CanAm power steering. I do rock crawling and slow trails and my King Quad 750 has really poor power steering. But if your road running there is to much power steering and the machine is nervous and twitchy.
I agree with another poster those big zillas on the Yamaha make your comparison mutt.
My brother has a 2001 Kodiak and my other brother has a 2011 Griz. Both are still running strong. I have a 2020 Yamaha and I just picked up a 2005 Bombardier Outlander for my nephew (only because I couldn't find a nice used Yamaha). The Outlander has all plastic racks which I don't care for but I heard some good things about Bombardier/Can-Am so I decided to give it a shot. At the end of the day, any machine will last a long time if you do the proper maintenance. Personally, I'm not much into how fast you can rocket to 50 mph, that's called abusing your machine.
I have a 2017 Grizz. Rode it 5+ years with minimal issues, Great machine, no complaints. I just picked up the Can-Am XT 700 Max because i wanted a 2up so my wife would join me. She no longer likes to drive due to an elbow injury but is fine as a passenger. Gotta be honest its a far better riding experience. I havent taken the Grizz out since we got the Can-am and honestly cant think of a situation where i would feel the Grizz is the better choice. Even when i ride alone, i still prefer the 2up Can-am. Cant speak to longevity and reliability as ive only had it a month, but strongly considering selling the Griz and buying another Can-am single seater. The locker diff on the Grizz gives me piece of mind and was a hangup for me on chosing the Can-am. But so far the Can-am has easily handled everything ive asked it to do (including some obstacles I lock my diff on while riding the Grizz) only with more comfort.
Maintenance is a bit of a pain in the ass with the canam’s. It takes me about 5 hours just to replace the oils in it.
I just purchased my 2023 XMR 700 2 weeks ago and I love it
Dude all those nats would be game over for me lol
Can you please comment on the clutches. The yamaha is super smooth engaging and easy to shift. How is the outlander???
Unlike other Outlander models, I can move the shift lever on my 700 PRO with one finger. And I need to rock my Grizz to get it to shift.
my friends dad has a 2006 polaris 700 and it has the storage in the front
Where in Ontario is this?
Im looking at a atv as i dont have room or towing capacity of a sxs. My dad has two 95 yamaha kodiaks that have been flawless. But i agree, yamaha has really dated themselves and are not putting much R&D into it. But still, that reliability is huge.
Now put the new single cyl can am 700 vs the suzuki king quad 750. Thats the next review id like to see.
The new can am is interesting, but a more even comparison would be the Grizzly se model. The se has different shocks or at least springs and the tires are lighter. The se is a little bit faster top end 64-65 mph. Being a grizzly owner I’m probably a little biased, but have looked at can am several times in past years. The only real test is going to be time. 1 or 2 mph difference in speed, handlebar angles, and different racks won’t mean much if the machine is not reliable. The clunky clutches, power train issues, and bad brakes have been no stranger to can am for a while. And American built Yamahas are more appealing that the outlanders being built in Mexico. Do the comparison in about three years. Hopefully the can am will prove to be a great machine.
Beautiful trail. The CanAm just looks more confident and solid
I owned a Kodiak in 2007 it rode like a tank. Sold it in 11 and bought a 650 outlander, way better machine. Now I have a 850 xmr and love it.
Great video, lots of comments about reliability, which I will leave to the better-informed to speak on. What about after-sales service? Do either manufacturer stand out, or is it more of a question of how good the dealer you bought from is? Honouring warranty? Parts availability? Cost to service? Complexity? DIY friendly? This part of the ownership experience doesn't get much coverage, but i would guess it makes up 30%tp 50% of owner satisfaction. Any opinions? Help me out TK world.
I own a 2008 Grizz and new 700 Outlander, I've also owned a 2019 Can-Am Defender and a 2008 Yamaha Rhino. The one warranty claim on the Can-Am was smooth and hassle free, same as one on the Rhino. The Grizz is still very reliable with few issues other than wear items like wheel bearings and brakes but it has had a stalling issue since new which is common. The Rhino needed a new stator and front knuckles. The defender only had the one warranty issue. for power window switch. After sale service depends mostly on a good dealer. I have had both good and bad and they serviced multiple brands each so that didn't matter.
@@Dusdaddy thanks for the info. So how does one pick a good dealer? What do you look for, beyond an established relationship and a long business history?
@@liamrobinson2084 Word of mouth and I look for the factory "platinum" designation. When purchasing, I shop for the better deal on price and honesty. The dealer I purchased from was actually the eighth closest dealer at 87 miles away. But he only sold two brands, so he knew them very well. Their mechs are also extremely knowledgeable because they only work on those. I have a dealer less than mile from me, but he sells 5 brands and only has one Can-am mech on staff. There sales guys did not even know Can-Am came out with a new machine. Oh yeah, smaller is usually better.
I had my 2020 Grizzly at 102 Km/H and still had a bit of throttle left. I wasn't in 4x4 and do not run square mud tires.
Can anyone else feel that Nats flying around ur face
Bought a 2007 grizzly very reliable lots of power and ride quality best in market and value still worth money
If your rough with your atv’s, get the grizzly (kodiak is more focused on work than play) if your lighter on your atv’s and want more comfort, get the can-am. Can-am’s break if you push them too hard. If you don’t know your limits, get a grizzly. If you do know your limits, get a can-am.
I have a 2017 grizzly its a great reliable mchine ,maybe now that can am is attacking their market share they will finally pump out an 850 ro hit back.
As for people saying belts burn up on the can am that might be true but you can buy a lot of belts for rhe price difference
A few K price difference but its not exactly apples to apples plus what about long term reliability and maintanance ? Bet after a few years your less cost with the Grizz
I love the value of the can am but really want a locking diff. May go with the king quad, since it’s basically a cheaper version of the grizzly
Not really if you get the power steering SE version
@@kojack635 I’m not super into power steering
I have 16000 miles on my 800 can am outlander been a great machine
In your comparison you say Grizzly bars come back to far and narrow, on my 2021 Grizzly they've to far forward and almost straight up. Installed by the dealer, easy fix just adjust bars. And in your speed test you say you pinned them and Canam faster... if i pin my grizzly from a dead stop the front wheels would be off the ground and still climbing up , I'd race a canam with my grizzly and i can guarantee it's not going to get left on the starting line. I have factory 26 size tires i switched to Zillas but stock size and grizzly lowered the gear ratio 6% so it's a rocket off the line ! And shocks are adjustable so another mute point... Yamaha all the way 😊
I wonder which one will last longer yamaha
This guy was about the can am before he done the video
I’m over here swiping at black flys in my phone screen
The CanAm 700/500 is probably the final nail in the coffin for Yamaha fans hopes of ever getting a twin cylinder Grizzly. If it made sense for CanAm to drop their lower tier platforms to single then Im sure we are now at a race for the bottom dollar in that segment. Yamaha raised their pricing this year and they are far off from the new CanAm price so I don't see them being able to compete on single cylinder pricing. For a twin to compete with CanAm/Polaris they are also going to have to have an all new chassis and update the rest of the bike. These models (if they hold together) are really going to put the pinch on yamaha / honda to do something other than the yearly color change.
As a lifelong yamaha guy it's sad to say but you're correct. All us yamaha guys on the forums are out of breath screaming at yamaha to give us a v-twin grizz. So many have already traded them in for can-am and Polaris. I will dipping into can-am here soon from the lack of yamaha not listening to their customers. My grizzly is as maxed out with mods as I can on the performance side. You can't make a big bore turn into a V-twin.
I dont care much about power but reliability. I would still prefer yamaha and honda over most of them. Can ams are fine for me but polaris are no no. Too many of them are broken down on trails. Im more into what can get me there on my journey and back home. Here in alaska, we ride 8 to 9 hours sometimes even 10 hours straight up to get where we wanna camp. Talking about 90 miles out with heavy gears, foods and equipments and up and down mountains and swamps to rock climbing as well as crossing deep streams. As much as i love other brands, i cant trust myself to be in one of them for long harsh trips.
@@MATTLEism After having a 570 v-twin for the last 5 years, I just bought a new Outlander 700 and I'm not anticipating missing that v-twin. If you ride in warm weather that machine really gets hot, and I mean where you have to get off the machine for a while. The new 700 isn't supposed to do that. I ordered a new one and haven't got it yet, so I hope I'm not disappointed. You Yamaha guys might have had it right after all
Why change what works? Any Can Am is going to bring expensive maintenance and repairs. The grizzly is proven a reliable work machine with well over 10 years of usability with nothing but regular service, you literally can not find a review reporting quality issues on a Yamaha. And regardless the grizzly feels like a bigger machine, but is actually still significantly lighter.
The can-am is 200lbs(!) heavier from what I can find online, weird how it seems to accelerate faster. And why so heavy, it's not that large and it's a single?
I like how he says here at Can-Am, like we know who he works for.
Have two Outlanders, 570 max and 850xt max. I like both and they have been very reliable and fun. However, the reason I don't have a Yamaha is that they don't offer a 2up and no v-twiin. Waiting for them to put the Wolverine 850 in a 2up atv and I'll buy one! Nice review!
I'm with the "It works leave it alone" Yamaha crowd.
Sure can am may be improving but the mentality of the best of the best you'll be buying every year
I prefer the racks on the Yamaha. You can mount gun racks, and other accessories whereas if you need to open the compartment door, you can't put anything over the top.
Both are great atvs, I REALLY wished can-am would just have a proper locker not the limited slip thing in the front. The can-am has really improved however it looks like it’s centered gravity is too high. 13:12
You can get a push-button locker on the Can-Am but only on certain models. I actually like the idea of having both options.
The visco lock has caused issues on ours unfortunately. Causes the bike to serve past 30mph not a nice feeling and the dealers played dumb when we took it to them.
Xmr or the pro xu in these new models have 4lokt
@@RockinRack Well, it is good that they offer a locker however I personally wish it was standard for all 4x4 ‘s
@ethannorton1560 I agree 100% you have to go to the xtp for it in old line up. Or the pro xu in the new line up. I don't want to pay an extra 5k for all the shit I don't want. I would like an xt850/1000 with the locker but they don't make it
It’s not just Yamaha. All 4 Japanese companies have stopped putting R&D into the quad ( and bike) scene. It’s the same old, same old for years now. People want SxS these days.
Really good comparsion. My biggest question is wich one last the longest and have the overall best quality. It's nice with new gadgets and a lot of finesses, but simple use to last longer. And in the end of the day deep in the forest i at least want the machine that takes me home and not the one that brakes down and give me a ton of problems and a ruined trip.
One word - Honda
@@rubicondickweed I would agree but I will never put that much emphasis on reliability. Sometimes features matter as do wants. If not, we would all drive Honda Accords and Toyota Camry's....they do the job but just ....blah. And I do own a Honda Foreman, a grizz and a new 700 Outlander. The Honda is only used for plowing and basic utility. The other two are used in the woods.
Can am is junk…9 out of 10 times my Yamaha has to tow it back. Only thing they got going for them is the 1000cc. If yours doesn’t consume a qt of oil after a day of riding like mine did right from the show room floor.
Currently have a 21 grizzly swamped it, overheated it (my fault from not washing the rad out). Have just 1k miles and still running strong
Performance can am. Reliability Yamaha. Overall choice for me.. Yamaha. I own Yamaha and Honda 4 wheelers. Can't beat the reliability of them . And when you're miles away from anyone, reliability is what matters most.
Yamaha makes an amazing engine very reliable
I'll just follow along behind the Can am on my grizzly and pick up all the pieces that fall off it....oh wait, I already do that, everytime I ride with my uncle...lol
If you keep the same engine and components for decades, the atv will be very durable and last forever
But many people buy atvs for other reasons besides reliability
The bugs bro DANG 😂😂😭😭
hey , some body say that outlander 700 is a cfmoto ... is true or not ? thanks :P !
A Canadian promoting a Canadian product. No bias here at all lol
Im a yamaha man all the way. Im really not interested in changing something just for the sake of changing it. If it isn't broke...
A front or rear storage would only catch deer blood and take longer to clean lol.
My quad is 20 years old and like new. Low hours and miles. I'll double check but I'm thinking under a thousand hours and something like 700 miles.
Metal racks, pull start if battery dies, 45 miles an hour with a 6ft 265lb man, 4wd and diff lock. Original tires and brakes. It's perfect for an old hunter like me. I've bought Honda, Suzuki, and have ridden other brands. Nothing compares to Yamaha.
This guy is selling for Can-am. The 2024 xtr grizz is the way i went.
You should do Honda rubicon vs Yamaha grizzly.
