10mm "if you can find it" describes my project time perfectly...lol
out of all the tools I have the 10mm is the one that ends up missing all the time.
A Yeahmahaw for the whole family.
😂
😀
HILAROUS that’s why I’m here 🤭
Took one out on Outlaw trials in West Virginia yesterday. Can't believe how smooth it rode and how good it went. Never had a problem on a 6 hour ride. Amazing machine
Best x4 review I’ve watched so far. Keep up the good work!
I love how you test those things to the limit! 😀
You need to give that little kid their helmet back.
😂
I use my 19 Teryx 4 regularly on trails with my family of 4. I've used it with 250+ lb adults, very comfortably. It also came in handy when a friend's Sportsman had a tire blow out (unrepairable), because he was able to jump in one of the free seats in the back, and continue. If the cargo bed is full and you are not carrying 4 passengers, there is plenty of room in the back seats/on the floor for a medium-large waterproof storage bin, which is what I do in the winter when hauling my camera gear/drone and other gear along with the typical ice fishing equipment. The benefit there is that it also stays secure without having to strap it down and I can easily check on it or access it from the driver's seat. Point is, it's not wasted space just because it's not in the form of the cargo bed, so keep that in mind. That being said, this Yamaha looks like a great machine also and truthfully I'd say you probably can't go wrong with either. I would not even consider the Honda if your intent is to carry more than 2 passengers more than once or twice.
How is the heat from the engine on the Kawasaki?
I had a 2005 Yamaha Rhino prior to my 2017 YXZ. Both quality machines!
Thanks TFLoffroad for another solid review!
Outstanding review. 👍
Thanks Steven
Thank you for sharing. I’m just starting to shop for my fist sis. I live in southern AZ and it will be used for an adventure/ hunting vehicle.
Good review ! The object of the 4 seater is to have others ride along with the driver. I guess it is up to the guy with the money to decide how much comfort the passengers have! Your passengers may not go along more than ONE time if it is too uncomfortable! That would be the big factor when buying a passenger vehicle for me........!
Or you can just cut a rubber mat to fit perfect with Yamaha seats pushed up. It’ll keep your tracks clean, truck bed clean, and provide a cushion while you’re driving with large rocks moving around. You can take the mat out or find away to roll it up and secure it behind the seats when you have people in the back. The electric company orange mats they use on power lines would work great for that. They are thick, tough, but flimsy enough to store later.
I love your reviews. Can you get a hold of the 800 & 1000 Trackers? I haven't seen them head to head compared to anything yet. All of the reviews so far are singularly focused. Thx!
fantastic video
Looks like the bolts that hold the cargo box down have oversized shouldered, oversized heads to allow for stuff to be bungeed down inside the box? If so, that’s a pretty cool feature.
I've always been a Honda fanboy but lately I'm shying away from Honda. At one point Honda was a relevant company back in the 90's but have been surpassed by other manufacturers. I purchased a Pioneer 700-4 (38HP) 3 years ago and for the most part it's a good 'trail' machine. It won't break any high speed records but sometimes I have to road run and that's where the Pioneer falls short. Bogging down on steep hills and it's limiter set to 70kmh. I also have two Ranchers which I am selling because they just don't cut it any more. I was going to buy another Honda ATV, maybe the Rubicon but after looking at the Yamaha Kodiak 700 EPS, I was sold. I pick it up later this week. Sorry, Honda but you have to get with the program and offer MORE HORSEPOWER instead of tossing us breadcrumbs.
UPDATE. September 11, 2019.
I bought a 2019 Yamaha Kodiak 700 EPS. WOW! What a difference from my Honda Ranchers. Way more power for starters. Fit and finish is better then The Rancher. No rattles or squeaks. And it is smooooooth. No engine vibration. No more bump steer. Overall a fantastic machine. Again, sorry Honda but ya fall short in many ways.
Turbo TDI I agree. Been a Honda guy since the 1980s. They were always absolute tanks. But these days I would definitely buy something else. Good choice with the Kodiak! I bought a Polaris 570 a few years ago and it was a complete mechanical mess. Sold it after a year. I should have known better. If I buy again it will definitely be a Grizzly or a Kawasaki. I always rode sport quads so I might like the brute force a little more with its 750 twin. I love the instant rush of power they have. But the moral of the story is things change and we must adapt with the times. I always drove Chevy trucks too until the past 5 years when it seems GM went to hell. I bought a new Ford and never looked back. Honda indeed has a LOT of work to do to catch up. I would love to have a Rubicon but I can’t stand the 45mph Speed limit and lackluster power. It’s ridiculous!! They really need to toss the lawnmower engines. There is no reason Honda can’t make a 500cc that’s just as powerful as a Polaris 500 for example. I hate Polaris but the engine power of their 570 is very impressive
Rancher 420 vs a 700 and you say the 700 has more power??? What a surprise.
You should of gone with the Pioneer 1000 😉
They could be the top dog but they keep releasing 30hp machines. Great for the farm but not much else.
I tested this machine before buying last year.... The storage at the back when in 4 seat mode is next to nothing and the seats and footwells aren’t like the Teryx.... For the price and family comfort I chose the Teryx.... The wolverine is a beauty though no doubt about that.... Love the reviews man! 👍🏼
I did the same. I love my Teryx. I have tracks on it for the winter and can haul a group of 4 adults comfortably towing a sled with everything we need to enjoy a day or weekend of ice fishing. I use it with the fam all year long.
The X4 has just as much if not more storage than the Teryx4. What many overlook is that you have much more storage between the rear seats. You also have the large arm rest storage that the Teryx doesn't have. This is what I carry with me every day AND that's IN 4 seat mode. www.wolverineforums.com/forum/162-wolverine-x2-x4-general-discussion/26498-yamaha-wolverine-x4-cargo-box-review.html#post279090
Great review!! How hard is it to remove the back seats completely?? I would think many people would like that option? Thanks
Do a review on the Yamaha Viking. I am looking into it more over this and it is hard to find a video on it.
This looks like the model before the RMX4 right? I’m truly leaning toward Yamaha for my first family UTV though great vid mate!
Teryx has plenty of storage in the tray. What are the capacities of both in bed storage boxes for Kawi and Yamo? Prolly very similar.
Lol he basically said "you can put your weed in there man"😅
As far as the rear seats, Yamaha should have just made the seats to be removed all together with a quick release mechanism. Take them right out and have more room.
It's not that hard to remove them altogether. Maybe not quick-release but you can have them out in 5-10 minutes.
Excellent idea, also use them as a chair to sit in camp
@One-Body-of-Christ , Nearly every van has rear seats that pop out in seconds, easy to do.
@@MassiveOverkilltoo long for regular changes
I would love your opinion on the Yamaha Viking vi ranch edition. There aren't many reviews for that one???
Now that you’ve reviewed both the Teryx and X4, would you say the X4 is noticeably quieter and less heat that the Teryx?? I am on the fence between those models
Leave the cables on the tail gate side so they don't get lost over time, as long as the tail gate doesn't walk away.
The wolverine is a nice machine. But I still prefer the Teryx4 for family trail adventures. Super comfortable for all 4 people, room for a cooler and gas can, and Plenty of power for fun on the trails
You can easily fit a cooler and gas can with 4 people in a Wolverine X4. Super comfortable if you're only considering space. Heat, vibration, noise for 8 hours, I guarantee you the X4 is more comfortable. X4's CVT is way more bulletproof than the Teryx'
When it comes to the x2 is there any other color in the base model. I only ask because I'm only seeing blue.
GREAT review as always- well done. IF you're hauling rocks/sand, you can EASILY remove the seatbacks and the seat track. they're 4 bolts each. I take them out all the time for hunting season. its takes about 3 minutes. When the season is over, i put them back in for the family.
Tuff to decide teryx4 or x4. I ultimately decided on the teryx4. Reseats were better. I also couldn't stand the shoulder gaurds on the x4. However I would buy a x4 in a heart beat.
YAM-awe haw
Second Wolverine X4 video I see today that can't climb a steep rocky trail or over the pile of rocks shown in this video. The Teryx4 seems to be a much better goat.
Need 1 of these to rplace my old gator
Wonder if the x4 or x2 is truly any better off road than the new 2020 Ranger.
I'm thinking of looking for a pioneer sometimes later, but the way your driving this, I'll have to check a wolverine ! 👍
My pioneer's been a lemon. It's been in the shop three times in less than a year. Two weeks after buying it one of the rear shocks broke. Then there was a recall on the steering. And now it's in the shop for a new fuel pump
i understand the going up getting high centered. But how are the capabilities going the other direction when you get to a gully and need to go down?
What's the cost of this unit with the accessories that you had on it including the utility box
*Seems like that added box gives you less storage than you had before.*
Was this the 850cc engine? thanks appreciate the video!
For riding threw the trail, which one is better honda pioneer or the Yamaha?
Would you go with this X4? Or pioneer 700 X4?
Ahh yes perfectly heated cup holders
I bet those back seats get hot up against the engine compartment.
Yamaha ain’t fooling nobody. That “storage compartment” is clearly a beer cooler. 😂
I'm 245lbs, 6' tall, I did not find the Honda seats uncomfortable
Wanna see a Teryx4, wolverine x4, pioneer 1000-5 drag race. It’s not all about speed but it does come into play some when considering my options to replace my aging OG mav with a grandson hauling unit. I’m old but not so old I want a golf cart with fancy stickers only. I would consider all of the things as I decide but no one does a drag race so I can see the difference.
the honda is faster with more high end also but like it was said cluthes are crap and expensive to repair
What about the Polaris Ranger Northstar? Best of all worlds and has Air Conditioner Standard I might add
More $$$$$
Please McDonald's...grant me the Mackenzie River piece of the Monopoly game!
You could us a NIOSH approved decibel app on your phone for comparisons.
Great review. However, the Kawasaki has more storage than the Yamaha when the seats are deployed.
Rival Sports but the Yamaha is more reliable and holds better value.
A Yamaha? More reliable? Can I get what you're on?
Arnold Tech1 Yamaha has the highest resale lowest cost to maintain and easiest to use. when Kawasaki‘s break they’re expensive when Hondas break they’re extensive.
Brandon Wright they are all good, but I haven’t had any problems with my Kawasaki yet, and now that I’ve said that, I know something will break.
Rival Sports lol 😂 🤦🏾♂️
How would this compare to the kawasaki?
Top speed? Does it have a limiter. My teryx4 does at 50
52 MPH via limiter. Weller ECU flash will get you to 56 MPH with stock tires and sheave. 65 MPH is possible with a machined sheave in addition to the Weller Flash and depending on your tires.
Been looking at new japanese machines in this class as its time for a new SXS. I've test ran the X2, and Pioneer 1000 3 seat. I need a dumping bed. Pro's and cons to both but overall probably going to go with the Pioneer. I have no problem with Yamaha's CVT system as they build them very well and they work as they should..I hated that shoulder restraint..lol...bang on it getting in and out and rub on it while riding. I prefer the real diff lock mode over I 4wd, but it would be nice to not have to stop to lock it in and just keep rolling too as long as it works correctly..The Yamaha is a simpler proven design machine but I enjoyed the Honda better...I can't imagine what it would cost to replace a DCT trans if it went bad...probably over 4K, but it is an awesome machine with good top end too for having fun....Yamaha is cheaper as well...still up in the air but its time to upgrade my 2015 Kubota 1120d..Its just a work machine for level ground and not much else..
That shoulder bolster can easily be removed.
We’re not eating a turkey with yams...
We’re yAWNIng from a long day at work....... Yamaha , not 🍠 aha
Lol 😝
Polaris 1000 general future review?
Still junk 2 years later
Can you guys make more video on Mahindra Roxor, I want to know more about Roxor and I also own a Mahindra Thar here in India.
+ Me too an Off Road Guy
For those that have driven both the x4 and teryx- how does the power of the 2 compare? Breaking the tires loose around corners and in 4x4 on climbs? Need something with a larger back seat and more power than my pioneer 700-4...
Not to mention ride quality on trails... x4 vs. teryx?
I’d like to know this as well.. also anyone’s opinion on engine noise between those two. Coming from a Pioneer 500 myself.
I looked around for about a couple years on which machine to get. The Teryx 4 just fit the whole picture and perfect for the family. Great quality, torque, turning radius, comfort in the seats, suspension is great etc. It does get warm inside the cab but once I get going it’s not bad at all, it is a bit loud and I love the feedback on the sound the 800 gives you. This thing is a mountain goat.
RussC love my Teryx. Just purchased 6 days ago!
@@karlosnoriega2032 you still love it?
can you actually hold a conversation while traveling at a good speed?
@@jasonjones3 so far so good, the machine fits pretty much anywhere I take it and the seats are comfortable. It does get noisy but I honestly don’t mind it. Anything over 30 mph you do have to raise your voice a bit or slow down. Overall great off-road machine.
For the price with tax i can get three off road used vehicles. A nice almost perfect used car. and still have money left over!! The cost of soo many machines are for the middle class and too me its unattatinable. if i was in need id get a used one or a older suv or jeep or anything off roader machine far far cheaper.
smith johnson they are junk and for sale at 2k now 😂
exactly, i got my 2015 grizzly 700 brand new in 15 and i figure as long as i take care of it i shouldn't ever need to buy another one.
STOP SAYING YAMAHA LIKE THAT.
What happen to a $6,000 side by side?
Rural King or Tractor Supply.
A motor, frame, suspension, tires, seems to me they could make them for much less.
have at it
They do "make them" for much less, then add in R&D, marketing, legal, warranty, dealer profit, facilities costs, transportation, employee benefits.....
how come theres 6 cup holders when theres only 4 seats?
America
Beer is sold in six packs...
cjk247 obviously you don’t party
@@nickhilton4680 you missed my point by 100%. all good....have a good night
I see a ram
It's not a Yam a ha. It's a Yama ha
*Man not impressive on the rock pile AT ALL!* Looks like a flat land machine 100%
I agree, but its built for light trails and its price is reflected as such. As a guy with a family, I can't go out and buy a $25K pure sport machine. Those machines are awesome, but I have less than $5K into an old 94 Jeep Wrangler that can crawl places my friends with those Honda Talon's can't touch. So..... to each their own. The Yamaha is built for family stuff, light hunting trails, etc. I'm not taking my kids in dangerous "rock crawling" conditions, so its not a concern for ppl like me.
@@jackgerald5802 I agree 100%.. I purchased a wolverine x4 shortly after this comment. Lol
That's "low range", lol.
I think the pioneer is the best in this class of machine.
Honda's dual clutch transmission is junk and expensive to fix, plus the cab gets super hot. Not enough insulation from the heat of the motor. But they do have turf mode which is something all the machines in this class should have.
YEMEHA?
Hey you said Yah ma haw correctly... hmmm
That's not rock climbing go a place where you can do real rock climbing
A TON OF AGAIN 🤪
YA MA HA NOT YAM AHA
No
its ulgy
I can't see why the hell you'd want a 4 seater too godamn long to me that'd be why it got stuck going up those rocks it's way too long so easy to saddlebag.
I'm sure you're speaking of the Can Am or Polaris options. The compact 4 seaters: Honda Pioneer 1000-4, Kawasaki Teryx4, and the Yamaha Wolverine X4 all have the same wheelbase as the 2 seaters.
Someday when you grow up, move out of your moms basement, get married and have kids, you may want to take your family. Btw, the wheelbase is about the same as the X2.
Come on bro, no specs? Wheelbase, ground clearance, weight, height...what size tires, how big is the fuel tank...
I like what you did (glad they added select-able front diff lock) but you didn't add in enough outside of the comfort category to make anyone who is really on the fence about a 4 seater want to pick this over another option. Personally I want to see how the new TalonX 4 seater is going to stack up. This unit seems to REALLY suffer from ground clearance issues offroad on the trails, you didnt highlight this, why? I want to like this unit I just dont think that loaded down with 4 people its going to perform well on anything other then the mildest of trails. Seems like it might also get a little tippy with what seems like a high rear roof line and what looks like a short wheelbase (for a 4 seater). IN-DEPTH needs more DEPTH.
He listed all the specs in text at the beginning of the video dude.
1:18....
@@rhull3939 ahh yes he flashed it on the screen for a few seconds and didn't compare those numbers to any other machines...didn't even make any of that info talking points.
I have one, and thanks to the automatic load leveling rear shocks, the ground clearance stays the same regardless if there are 1, 2, or 3 passengers.
Fully grown adult more like over grown adult
T-Rex all the way
