Segment: ATV/Quad
Production years: 2008, 2009
The 2008 Yamaha Wolverine 450 is one of the best mixes of sporty character and true off-road capabilities: it brings forth the convenience of on-command 4WD, being able to tackle the toughest obstacles and slippery slopes, while retaining the nimble, nervous brawn of the Kodiak 450cc engine. If we were to give a name to this, it could very well be sport-exploring.
Aggressive looks derived form the Raptor series make this quad a head-turner as well, while the automatic transmission with reverse and preload-adjustable shocks ensure an easy ride on unwelcoming trails. Sealed, marine-grade connectors give the rider the needed peace of mind when the adventure reaches the wetlands, while the LCD instrument cluster with LED lights provides all the critical riding data.
