A high-powered ATV has no room for newbie riders and only those that know their way around one should be riding it. It's not that the Yamaha Grizzly 700 EPS->ke1930 isn't suited for novices, but if you're breaking into the world of ATVs, you might settle for something a little more entry-level.

On the other hand, if you're a veteran of four-wheeled, off-road riding, then the Grizzly 700 EPS will definitely make your heart skip a beat. Powered by a 686cc liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine, the Grizzly 700 EPS boasts of the best power-to-weight ratio of any Yamaha->ke301 utility ATV on the market. The engine is then mated to a fully automatic Ultramatic transmission that's considered the most advanced drive system among ATVs.

As far as handling is concerned, the Grizzly 700 EPS was built with WideArc front suspension A-arms that provide outstanding ground clearance. For maximum control and comfort over rough terrain, the ATV comes with a fully independent long-travel four-wheel suspension featuring a double-wishbone suspension set-up on the front and five-way preload-adjustable shocks on the rear.

More than its performance and handling capabilities, the Grizzly 700 EPS also looks the part. It's a lean, mean, fighting machine that comes with features riders can enjoy. It has a center-mounted, heavy-duty trailer hitch that can tow more than 1300 pounds. Likewise, the ATV also has rugged steel cargo racks with a special, extra-durable wrinkle

paint finish that can pack a total of 286 pounds. There's also an LCD instrument display that contains fuel injection and electric power steering information, as well as bar-type fuel gauge, speedometer, odometer, trip meter, clock, and Diff. Lock indicator. Dual 35-watt multireflector halogen bulb headlights with high and low beams complete the Grizzly 700 EPS' set-up.

for ground clearance and lower seat height for quick steering

and maneuverability.

-Gear-driven crankshaft balancer shaft and rubber-damper engine

mounts reduce vibration.

-Ceramic-composite cylinder liners provide outstanding durability

and heat dissipation; forged piston is light and strong and rides a

carburized, chrome-moly connecting rod.

-Two-lobe overhead cam and a pair of needle-roller rocker

arms reduce friction by 50 percent for increased fuel efficiency

and torque.

noise, vibration, and maintenance.

-Stainless steel exhaust system features aluminum heat shields

and a screen-type spark arrestor for great power with minimum

noise output.

-High-capacity aluminum radiator with fan-assist delivers

maximum cooling efficiency and is positioned high in the frame

for optimal protection.
