UNMATCHED ADVENTURE FOR FOUR
An extreme edition for extreme adventures, complete with factory-installed WARN® winch, Special Edition paint, color-matched wheels and aggressive tread pattern GBC® Dirt Commander® tires.
Capability - SMOOTH AND POWERFUL TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE: The Wolverine X4 850 XT-R is powered by an 847cc DOHC eight-valve parallel-twin engine featuring a full range of advanced Yamaha technology. Forged pistons and connecting rods ensure durable high-rpm performance with Yamaha’s 270° Crossplane Concept Crankshaft for linear torque development and excellent power throughout the rpm range. To improve efficiency, the engine features a dry-sump design for a more compact layout and an offset cylinder block to reduce friction losses. Rubber engine mounts and a geared counterbalancer ensure smooth running from idle to redline.
- RESPONSIVE AND RELIABLE ULTRAMATIC® TRANSMISSION: Yamaha’s Ultramatic® transmission is the most advanced—and durable—CVT drive system available. An automatic centrifugal clutch maintains constant belt tension for reduced wear, and a sprag clutch delivers natural all-wheel engine braking.
- ON-COMMAND® 4WD: Industry-exclusive three-position On-Command® 4WD system lets you switch between 2WD, limited-slip 4WD, and fully locked differential 4WD. Unlike competitors’ automatic 4WD systems, On-Command® puts the driver in full control to make the most of available traction in various types of terrain.
- COMPACT AND NIMBLE CHASSIS: Designed for maneuverability, the Wolverine X4 850 XT-R chassis is super agile, making tight trails a breeze with lightweight steering to select the ideal line when tackling obstacles. With an upswept underbody design, the Wolverine X4 850 XT-R boasts plenty of ground clearance and big approach and departure angles to clear challenging terrain. For enhanced response in tough terrain, the rear A-arms minimize camber changes across the suspension travel.
- YAMAHA CHIP CONTROLLED-THROTTLE (YCC-T): The Wolverine X4 850 XT-R engine utilizes YCC-T®, a drive-by-wire system that converts the driver’s commands into digital throttle control. Throttle response is further improved thanks to a quick-response servo motor, precision fuel injectors and a high-volume airbox with two-stage air filtration.
