The TRX700XX redefines the Sport category of ATVs with a whole new level of confidence, comfort and high performance. With double-wishbone Independent Rear Suspension (IRS), a unique centered chain drive system, and a fuel-injected 686cc engine making monster torque, the TRX700XX is truly the new Sport ATV “King of the Hill.”

Engine/Drivetrain

  • 686cc SOHC, four-stroke engine generates the highest peak output in its class.
  • Liquid cooling provides consistent engine operating temperature in extreme conditions for maximum power and long engine life.
  • PGM fuel-injection system with 44mm throttle body for excellent cold-weather starting, lower maintenance and consistent performance at high altitudes (see Technology Section).
  • Gear-driven counterbalancer minimizes engine vibration for smooth, comfortable all-day riding.
  • Maintenance-free automatic cam-chain tensioner.
  • Closed-crankcase vent system safeguards against engine oil contamination.
  • Full transistorized ignition with electronic advance.

  • Independent double-wishbone rear suspension, made possible by the innovative centered chain drive system, features steel upper and aluminum lower A-arms. Using piggyback reservoir shocks, the system provides 9.3 inches of fully useable travel.
  • Steel frame with removable subframe is extremely durable and strong. 
  • Triple disc brakes for excellent stopping power and weight savings.
  • Special, large-diameter 11-inch aluminum rear wheels allow for ideal CV joint angles and A-arm lengths, resulting in superior power delivery, optimum suspension action and improved durability.
