We hit the trails with the 2022 Yamaha Grizzly 700 to find out if keeping this ATV the same year-after-year is starting to hurt it.

This is exactly the kind of content I have been looking for. A no B.S. review of a no B.S. machine addressing the main concerns of prospective buyers. Well done!
Thanks! Plenty more to come, so stay tuned!
Did you get your tool kit that located under your sit?
I had a 850 v twin.
Went back to the 700. It's fun, more than enough, and has over 2 decades of perfection.
I have the same grizzly, reliable, smooth, goes over 100km/h and I’ll have it 10++ years from now. The belt will never break unless you are doing something you shouldn’t be. My last Yamaha had over 15k on original belt and no issues. Constant belt tension is Yamaha’s key to belt life, controlled by an oil bathed internal clutch much like a Honda has
I sold my 2009 Grizzly 550 years ago and it was a dream. I'm back in the market for a machine. Looking at 700's, 750's & 850's.
If it ant broke, don’t fix it! That’s why I love my 2020 Brute Force, it’s an amazing platform with a Bullet proof powertrain that has been around for a long time and is very proven.
Rides really nice, power is perfect, 10 year belt warranty, 20 year motor warranty, I love my 22 Grizz.
Love the 700 Grizzly, every one that comes in the shop gets me around the property very well.
Love the new channel! This and your regular TK channel have some of the best working man no bs reviews for regular people!
Great review man! This has got to be one of the best reviews.
I don’t need a simple walk around lol, I can go to the showroom floor. You have provided a lot of good information.
Thank you
Just found one and bought it ! I went with the base model becasue I wanted more tire on smaller rims , as well as being able to pick a specific aftermarket tire that suited my needs .
I bought a 2022 Kodiak 700 eps few mouths ago, I love it the 700 is more then enough power for me and the Diff lock is cool to have
Yamaha is the Toyota of ATV's and SXS's. Been had a ton of different brands at work. Only would buy a Yamaha or Honda.
one that's built good and reliable is gonna win with me everytime
Not to mention the 300lbs on the seat lol. Had the Big Bear 400 22years old now and still running great. Treated myself to the 2022 Grizzly Xtreme and I love it.
Same 02 big bear. Plenty of repairs from hard riding but runs great and takes trails, hills, and creeks well as it always has
@@Drivesfastlikescats I finally was able to let my Big Bear go, neighbor wanted it for his kids on there farm. He offered me $1,200.00 for it…I said you would pay $1200.00 for a 22 years old 4-wheeler. He said it’s the only bullet proof wheeler out that he knows he can repair. I told him take it…I’m sure I will need your help down the road.
Honda & Yamaha don’t change much from year to year unless you count bold new graphics. But if you want a machine that will run 15 to 20 years with minimal maintenance they are the ones to buy. If you want all out performance you will have to look else where but it will cost you for purchase and maintenance over the years.
These are nice machines, you did a great review. Good video and information.
Loved my grizzly would gladly go back but fell in love with the KRX so traded it in towards one. If I went back to an atv I’d get a grizzly again super reliable powerful enough, great looks!
Nice vid. My buddy has one too, some clips of it being really tested on our channel lol
Sehr gutes Video und sehr gute Maschine 👍
Made the switch from can am outlander 650 to Grizzly. It’s just all around light, fun and nimble to ride.
I think if you were able to get these bikes for long term review you would see how much better the grizzly is and all Japanese brands for that matter .. I had a 21 outlander 850 and couldn’t trust the reliability .. that for me takes a lot of fun out of it .. I like to ride not fix.. great videos guys keep it up watch all your stuff
I've got an 07 that is good as new. Only problem I ever had was when a mouse built a nest in the air box and choked it off.
Ha! We had the same issue on our 2016 Kodiak. Mouse decided to move into the airbox.
I like the Yamaha atvs but at the end of the day I wanted gears so honda and suzuki were what i narrowed it down to and i ended up with a foot shift honda rancher and a electronic shift honda recon.
Im sure the cvts with belts are reliable but i prefer to have gears and thats what i remember riding in the mid 90s as a teen when we used to visit family out of state in AR.
Now that i moved out of the city to more rural area I finally bought my 1st atv at age 38 haha
Gears will always deliver a different feel, and Yamaha definitely doesn't have that. It is worth mentioning though that Yamaha has a 10-yr belt warranty on this machine.
when you have separated brakes and a light nimble machine, you can ride more aggressively and controlled in most trail situations.
The grizzly is a perfect example of goods and services going up over time . 15 yar old design twice the price maybe more . It also shows how good a Yamaha can be however it's time the put the 850 in the grizzly and redesign it , it's also time they put the 100 in Viking and give it a ground up change .
Yes it should, needs more power for us power hungry guys, I'd be happy with 60ish.
I originally looked at the grizzly and then started looking at Polaris sportsman. After all the shit that you have to do to a Polaris right from the factory I'm definitely going back to the grizzly and will purchase one.
Can you link the pressure washer y’all used?
I love my Kodiak and seriously considered trading up for a Grizzly but the $12-$13k pricing is too much for a 700cc single with only half the HP of an 850cc or 1000cc v-twin. If Yamaha put a v-twin in the Grizzly it would retail for $15k.
That and the fact that I bought mine pre-covid for $1600 under the list price means I'm going to keep mine for a while.
V twin for a little more money is alot of extra power you'll probably never need (grizzly already exceeds 100kph, on a trail machine that's just nuts) the single in the grizzly causes it to come in about 250-300 lbs lighter than some of the big Can Am 1000s. You're still getting enough torque to spin all 4 wheels all day long, and higher price point tells me they have invested the money into other areas.
I'd personally keep the 700 all day long over taking 30 more horsepower I don't need, and 300lbs more that I will feel everywhere.
Great machine, just bought one in mexico great quad
Nice 👍
I think the kodiak 700 eps is better same power but it's lighter and more nimble and it's cheaper
As a 850 can am owner the grizzly is still a awesome trail machine and was my second choice.
I had a 21 outlander 850 and traded it in for a 22 grizzly xtr and no regrets .. just didn’t trust the reliability of the can am
Great video. You need a better mic setup.
How did you mount your license plate?? Is that a mount or just screwed into the cargo bar?
its a mount that attaches to the bar
I’d like to get your thoughts on transporting ATVs. Can go open trailer side load like a 6x10 or a closed cargo trailer. The open one is easier to load but the enclosed cargo is more secure if out of town and hoteling it; but heavy and hard to load 2 ATVs unless you go huge. I just have an SUV that tows 5000#.
Well, open trailer is lighter and cheaper. As for security - my experience is - if they want to steal it they will - closed or not.
Yamaha!
1:38 speaking of style… what in the hell are you wearing … you look like an adult child lol.. holy moly… I’ve never laughed soo hard. It surprised me in a hilarious way haha
So, what does it cost?
18k ish with tax…
It needs an 850 atleast. But the atv segment is dead
the load test is not real you didnt calculate in on how many hot dogs you ate that year
So much work to clean that Yamaha.
It's so easy to get them muddy, and so much work to get them showroom clean!
Left the dealer. Straight to off-road park and broke down. Shame on Yamaha. Should’ve stayed with a Polaris or Can-Am
i have a 2015 700 grizzly camo with 100miles on it...wish i can sell it to a non scammer...i need 8500.00$ i live in NY
Dependable is better, pretty don't get where you're going
i have a 2022 grizzly and my father had a 2019 grizzly SE tactical black with a winch (basically the first year of the XTR) and if you're not going to be in wet terrain a lot, you're better off with the standard grizzly tires. it grabs much better and it even accelerates a little better with the smaller and lighter treads. the bigger muddies might look cooler to some, but i prefer function. if you are a mud rider, then the zillas are the better tires. the big polaris and can-ams might have the suspension, but none are as light and playful as the grizzly. great review! check out my channel
And just so you guys know. If you want 850 Can-Am type of acceleration. It can be had for under 1500 bucks. EHS makes a Bolton kit assuming you're comfortable doing a cam. He has a full video on how to do it. I'm part of a Yamaha grizzly group. A couple dozen people have done the upgrades and there are plenty a video showing it The grizzlies keeping up and beating Can-Am's in Polaris 850 and 1000. They don't have the legs and they won't go 80 or 90 miles an hour. But their power to weight ratio is on par and they will get off the line just like the $16,000 quads.
I am doing that kit and some Elka stage three shocks on my grizzly, that'll be about 13,000 total invested on my bike. 3000 less than the top 1000 quads. I'll be lighter more nimble just as quick and I'll be breaking down nearly as much.
There’s nothing boring about the grizz,unless of course your just a boring kind of a person.
And it is still light and feels like an ATV the big HP machines weigh too much
Any time a company pays you too do a review
Same machine except the price. The assholes raised the price a thousand dollars from 2022 to 2023.
Global inflation. Your countries dollar got weaker.
It's a part of life. In 2019 I got a Kawasaki ZX14r for show room sticker price $13,999 in Canada. That exact same bike for 2024 is $19,999. The world sucks right now.
