FEATURES

BIG BORE FUEL INJECTED ENGINE
The Grizzly 700 is now powered by a fuel injected 686cc 4-stroke engine derived from the class leading Raptor 700R. It is fuel injected for easy starting and crisp throttle response, but has been re-worked for even more low-end torque to match this bear's personality.  

ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING (EPS)
With EPS we've been able to dramatically reduce steering effort, especially in 4WD. At the same time, EPS helps isolate you the rider from external forces acting on the front wheels. This means you can worry less about what the terrain looks like, and focus on enjoying the ride. Did we mention it's speed and torque sensitive? EPS could be the single most important improvement to your off road experience in decades!

  • reduces steering effort in all situations, helping to reduce rider fatigue while enhancing rider confidence and ease of operation
  • speed and torque sensitive
  • improves stability on virtually all types of terrain at a wide range of speeds
  • helps isolate the rider from external feedback from obstacles that come in contact with the front wheels. 

INCREDIBLE POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO
Increased power is nothing if it comes with a bunch of additional weight. Considering the Grizzly 700 can be as much as 150 lbs lighter than the competitors 800's, this bear's power to weight ratio offers some hefty advantages over some of the bigger and bulkier ATVs. Less weight has an effect on everything from handling and acceleration to hill climbing and mud prowess. Imagine if you will adding six or seven cinder blocks to the racks of this Grizzly, and you get the idea of how heavy some of those 800's are!

4-WHEEL DISC BRAKES (ONE AT EACH WHEEL)
Slowing your big-bore ATV down shouldn't involve standing on the brake pedal while squeezing the lever with all your might. 4-wheel disc brakes combined with full-time engine braking means slowing this Grizzly down requires less effort. And since the front and rear brakes can be operated independently, you have more control over how you brake depending on the situation.

ULTRAMATIC TRANSMISSION
Revolutionary Ultramatic" fully automatic transmission is the first automatic transmission to feature true engine braking. All four wheels receive engine braking in 4WD mode. Dual-range transmission with reverse. Low range has approximately 1.5 times the pulling power of high range.

MASS CENTRALIZATION AND LOWER CENTER OF GRAVITY
A full tank of fuel carries a lot of weight with it. So we located the tank under the seat and the airbox up high where the tank used to be. This lowers the center of gravity which improves handling, stability and hill climbing capability. But it also raises the airbox reducing the chance of water and debris from getting into the engine.

V-BELT DUCTING
High mounted airbox, V-belt intake and exhaust ducts, reduce the opportunity for water and debris to enter the V-Belt housing.

REVERSE MOUNTED REAR SUSPENSION
The wheel center does not change but allows for a shorter frame which improves approach/departure angles, and allows the use of stronger ball joints (more clearance)
