The Grizzly probably would have won anyway, but a different line, and different tires does make a difference. Should have at least put Zillas on both.
Great video, I have a 700 kodiak with 28" zillas and a highlifter lift kit and absolutely love it.. goes through everything
That was pretty cool, I was hoping for round 2 lol
Seen you guys with the mud bike in North Bay yesterday!!
Riding in the swamp sucks sometimes have to clean all that stuff out of the bike love the video tgo🖒🖒
Nice video DT ! I'd say the Yamaha with the better ground clearance and obviously better tires made quick work, also seemed like that Rincon may have got hung up on something under the surface right away. The competition could have went the other way if the Grizz and Rincon switched lines. all in all it was fun run, and after seeing you pull handful after handful of grass out of your bike reminded me why I don't do that type of riding anymore haha
How does the 2009 Rincon compare to the 2019 Rincon? I am between the 2019 Rincon and this exact Grizzly for my first ATV purchase.
Been using my 2007 Honda Rincon 680 on my trapline in Northwestern Ontario Canada for several years and that machine is absolutely bulletproof. If you want to go through a swamp, purchase an Argo !!!
I have the zillas and I found after having them for over four years now I found that they are a good tire for the trail and mud
Is there any way you guys can do some sort of a drag race between the new 19 Grizzly and 16, 17 and 18 grizzly? I had a 16 grizzly but end up trading it off, was not happy with it at all. Hoping the steering and handling has improved in the 19 and hoping maybe the 686 has got more low end power then the 708 motor.
Does anyone know where that spot is? Would love to give it a wirl on my bije
2:15 I think I ran over a honda underneath there HAHAHHAH
I'm digging that new SE but wish they had a Green version. Wishing they dropped the 850 Grizz
Omg! Yes why won’t they bring out an 850!
I don't think that they want to give up the reliability of the machine and upping to an 850 may jeopardize that.
@@jwilliams9611 I ended up buying the same 2019 SE... NOT HAPPY WITH IT. My 2012 was a way better bike..
@@SouthFLMudClub
What’s the matter with it?
I have a 09 grizz with 28x12 Zillas on all 4 corners. Have it piped, tuned and snorkelled. It a beast. I walk around most xmrs in the deep stuff. Way lighter machine with less ground pressure.
Love the speed up of the video! LOL
We're we suppose to watch it slowly 🐌
Looks like northern Minnesota to me inbeween Polaris industries and arctic cat... Lol
Does the Rincon have a locking diff?
The zillas on the grizzly are actually a great pulling tire in the mud and all around tire. Ride smooth and surprisingly wear well fit as soft as they are and they’re the lightest mud tire you can get I believe.
Mamba lites are lighter and so are vampires
Matt Barrois I’m pretty sure the mambas and vampires are heavier in all sizes than the zillas, where are you getting your info?
@@br5495 I was wrong on the mamba lites but the zillas weigh 27 lbs and vampires weigh 25 lbs that is both 27" skinnys judging by the video I doubt they have 28" or taller on either bike
Bet that Honda will still be running 20 years from now
Then the grizzly will run for at least 15
The Grizz will too 😂
The grizz will be too
I knew the Honda would lose, but I didn't think it would be immediately lolol
Yamaha for the win. I’m not a fan of the Rincon’s tall gearing and low horsepower.
Yep your way better off with a Rubicon.
Have done the big red gear reduction on them in the past makes the rincon actually useable just really no reason to be geared out to 30 mph in first gear
IMHO, just not a fan of the Rincon's 3-speed (car type) transmission. The CVT is so much more efficient. Especially, Yamada design!!
My apologies to Graham. Wasn't tying to "hate" on the Rincon. He's got a cool quad, and he obviously likes it - which is probably the most important factor of all.
the rincon by far is the best Honda has made JS
Just bought a 2018 Grizzly SE and wondered why I can't find any reviews on Dirt Trax?
Unfortunately we were not able to review the 2018 model.
I wish Yamaha would go ahead and give us a Grizzly 850 like we all want it. Gives us a snorkeled version to like Can ams have the XMRs.
Id like to see how my Rincon with the 710 thumper bbk and webcam would do against the Yamaha 700.
My family used to have a 680 and by riding it I could tell it was going to lose,but you gotta love a Honda
Ok most of this video was just pulling grass out,
Should put the same sized zillas on a KQ 750 and run it against the Grizzly.
Have you seen the new Honda talon, she is a beauty.
looks like minden. off scotch line maybe ?
Rincon chose the wrong line.
Check out the rear end craftsmanship on the rincon. superior to the kymco!!!Hehe
What is your personal atv or utv
That's Graham's Rincon.
What are all of the guys personal atvs
I ride a 2019 Grizzly 686 EPS and i am very impressed with it very powerful
Maybe people dont want thieves to come find their stuff.
While i was pretty positive the Grizzly would win i really thought the Rincon would do much better than it did.
Is there much of a difference between the 708 cc and the new 686 cc grizzly in terms of power response and such also anyone know why they went back to the 686 they didnt have the 708 very long at least in the Grizzlies
kgb 89 the 708 was built by Subaru and also used in the Wolverine. They don’t use that engine anymore in the wolverine so I buqess Letha decided to go back to the 686 which is smoother and quieter. I sadly bought a wolverine with the 708 and now I am stuck with a machine I can’t sell. Not sure bait the grizzly but it runs extremely hot in the wolverine and the pipe glows bright red.
@@bradyoung252 thanks for the information. Yes mine is a 18 model grizzly and the engine gets super hot and backfires it also shuts of randomly. The pipe gets glowing red as well. I like this machine it has good power but it gets so hot that I sometimes think thay the plastic is just about to melt
686 feel just like the tried and true 686. It has 700-class power, but it isn't going to wheelie whenever you squeeze the throttle. Good power in the trails, but top end is less than thrilling. Vehicle rides and handles like a champ though. Dead reliable and built really well.
I had a 708 Grizzly. Loved it. Great machine. Just needed more jam. Had no problem selling it. It's a Yamaha. They hold their value really well.
@@dirttraxtv thanks for reply and info . I totally agree with you on the top end well at least for the 708 since I haven't tried the new engine yet and the power on the trail is more than enough for the average rider. Let's hope yamaha will up their game for the riders that want more from a machine than just average trail rides.
Go YAMAHA :-D both are sweet quads though, great video! yall are crazy! I would have taken my kayak in there before my quad
That "secret pond " is where eh tv and nos atv go to hit mud
Can't confirm, but that would be pretty cool.
Eh tv is out by cornwall. Dirttrax is around Huntsville. Pretty long ways away from each other
IMHO, the challenge should have been a best out of three runs.
It appears the Yamaha had a better line, compared to the Honda.
Great video!! It's so fun to watch because, this is how people usually use their machines!!
You make a good point. We should've filmed a couple more runs. Next time we will do that for sure.
It’s pretty obvious that the Honda was hung up on something probably the stump or something grabbing on the bottom. I’m very surprised they never did a second run. It’s almost seem like a commercial for Yamaha.
Rincon doesn’t seem to exist in Canada 🇨🇦....???
does the new 700 Grizz engine still have only 4 more HP than the 570 Polaris?
xXJBrutalXx Yes, which is sad when your comparing a 700 to a 570. Can’t even compare the Grizzly to the other big bore 850’s, they have almost 80HP.
the thing that gets me is the Grizz LE has a 10K price tag on it too. the 650 Can Am has 62HP
xXJBrutalXx I agree, I got my 2017 Polaris Sportsman 850SP for under 10K. And the Grizzly is nowhere in comparison to it.
@@stevestephaniecaudill4879 big bore ported head grizzly eat them all
you guy should do a honda 680 or a yamaha grizzly 550 or 700 mud build ?
Agreed! Would love to see if we could get more power out of that engine and really do it up.
I have a 2007 Grizzly 700 and NO other atv tire for tire can handle what that Grizzly can go through! I've seen em all and seen em fall!
That was brave to do with no water proofing on the yamahahaha
Dragging the front brake on the rincon makes both front wheels spin.
FIXED lol
OK so I just bought the 2019 Grizzly with winch set up yesterday for work. The Yamaha dealer was talking up the Yamaha single engine now back in this unit, with bigger valves. Apparently, the Suburu had some issues. 10 year drive belt life? Wow. And those tires and wheels look killer!
Ground clearance is great! I'm using this thing with the trailer I transport it with to haul tree branches, logs, up hills, across fields, septic systems etc., to my heavy dump truck and chipper. I like that it tows 1,350 lbs., and actually has a standard 2" receiver for the ball hitch to hook the trailer to. Hope this thing works!!!
Rincons are desperate for an update...these quads haven been running unchanged since when? 04? Its crazy..
It is ridiculous. Would love to see the new bodywork of the Rubicon and MINIMUM of an 850 twin in it.
Dirt Trax Television true, and a new chassi. This old chassi isnt taking the Rincon anywhere, point you guys just beautifully proved LOL
I would have liked see to more time spent mudding vs talking and pulling stuff out of the machine my 2 cents
Do a review in a can of them outlander max XT
It’s that damn 3 speed automatic, it doesn’t pull hard enough and when it starts to it wants to change gears.
Once again proving honda is not as good as people say they are
He went on a bad path lmao
Yamahas have always made kick ass bikes of all types I just wish they'd put out a 1000 mud version. I like Hondas and everything but I really don't get what all the fuss is about, All the Honda fans are always going on about the "reliability" but every Honda I've driven has no power and my Yamahas all held up better than my buddies Hondas, and frankly, I was harder on them.
Les vtt n'ont pas passé exactement au même endroit. Le fond d'un marais en très inégale et la texture du fond aussi. Les techniques des 2 conducteurs sont aussi différente.
I live in northern Manitoba and we have logging roads that go 40 miles into the wilderness no way am I taking anythg else but a Honda. Now that I think of it I would run out of gas trying to drive that far with any other big machine.
If i want to play close to the road in the mud puddle then yeah maybe I take a Yamaha, if it breaks down the the Honda can pick it up on the way back from the 40 Mile journey.
Rubicon would have been a better choice, the Rincon is a decade old and we could only dream of a brand new Rincon with the pioneer 1000 engine and front locker that would be a weapon
personally would rather have a honda. but this isnt a fair challenge. they should be the same year atv same tire set up. and the honda should be a 2019 RINCON
How much did Yamaha pay the Honda driver to hit the break when he started in the mud
2:06 You think thats bad you should a saw my 09 foreman I could of filled two buckets if shit it was that bad lol
Yamaha power 👍📽
Incorrect use of “bet” you may, lay a bet.
Will Yamaha ever step up to the 1000cc class?
Let's all hope!
@@dirttraxtv I know I would definitely buy a grizzly 1000.
They have a good twin cylinder 700 and a good 900 triple that could be really fun on a quad would be more excited about either of those power plants
Yamaha Doesn’t want to Make it a 1000CC Because It Is Too Dangerous they never went above 1000 CC
I would seriously consider selling my '16 Grizz for a v twin 850-1000 cc Grizzly.
But who goes farther when the griz is broke down.
Waste of my time. I’ll go mow grass...
hondas really need a locker . The engineers at honda obviously do not ride.
my new rubicon has a locker, works very well
I love my Honda but they’ve gone stale. They’re capable of bringing excitement to the lineup but haven’t since the three-wheeler days. Gun shy? I don’t know.
Honda good for traction only
Two machines designed with different things in mind. You concentrate on the YAMAHA, but ignored the Honda Strengths. Like the transmission, plain old bullet proof design etc. Put equal tires on both machines and see what that shows. Every machine out there has good points and bad.
But people dont wana be stuck all the time. Honda has reliability but has the least power and is the slowest with the least amount of clearance.
I agree that the machines are different, but disagree that they concentrated on the Honda. I think it was simply a video of two buddies with a fun idea, and they filmed it. We watched it. Not trying to start a fight, but for the sake of friendly argument...the Yamaha also has a "plain old bullet proof design." Honda calls the Rincon their flagship ATV. The flagship ATV's of all other major manufacturers - in comparison - offer more power, more clearance, more suspension, larger tires, POWER STEERING, better gearing for low and high speed, front differential lock, more on-board storage, updated/modern styling, and the list goes on for a while. I'm personally disappointed in Honda's Rincon in the year 2018. And I'm a "Honda guy"!
I have 3 Rincons, an '03, '05, and a '12. The first two are carbed 650s, the '12 is a fuel injected 680. These, from the factory, are UTILITY ATVs, not mud-racing ATVs. We have used ours to cruise the Pacific Northwest here in WA and never had an issue... and they are very comfortable to cruise trails at 30 mph at low RPMs with excellent range... we ride 70 mile or more trips without needing to refuel. And no worries about a CVT belt braking. There's a reason for Honda's reputation for reliability, and in the West we don't want to have to walk 20 miles to get to the nearest paved roads... this isn't the settled Midwest with paved roads surrounding every section. The Rincons will do 60 mph on gravel roads... how much faster do you need to go?... and they're easily controllable and docile so my wife and teenage son won't have to worry about unexpected throttle twists making the ATV go out of control, yet shift it manually and let the revs build and it's fast and quick.
I'm sure the Grizzly is a decent ATV... I own an FJR and like it. But the Rincon is something else when it comes to cruising trails.
Honda
Lol how cool is a Yamaha cheers
The rinny would have won if I was driving
That honda will out live that frizzy any day of the week. And never need a belt lol🤣🤣🤣
Does the Honda even have an engine...
They should name them appropriately.
"It's the New (old) Honda Slug!"
"We gave up R&D years ago and live off our past reputation"
I have a 13 680 and its good. But yammys are shit
I live in a Honda state and the Honda disappeared when the grizzly showed up 😂. YAMAHA!
Should of bought a can-am lol
Rincon is junk, should have got a Rubicon.
Can Am
6 wasted minutes of nothing-no content-no purpose-
My Honda will smoke both those in 2wd
Figures a comment by a child.
Everything Off-road so a honda on 31 outlaws with a lift can’t beat a stock yahmaha on midzillas
steve stuart you have spelling of a kid so you can’t be talking.
But not a quickly or as well as your mom....
bdd1469 you just made no sense
That Graham is a really nice guy and he is good at his job working for Dirt track s TV but he is really one of the worst mud atv riders I have ever seen for real
That's not fair. Graham can rip and knows mud like an expert.
Yamahas are rubbish they should have swapped sides and gone again
