- In this one we take a close look at the Yamaha Wolverine X2 1000. Was bringing this machine to market a good idea?
Let us know your thoughts on the Yamaha Wolverine X2 1000 in the comments below.

As many have noted, the suspension travel numbers in the video are wrong (thanks Yamaha Canada!). I've reached out to let them know that the specs are wrong on their website. Yamaha US has the right specs.
The full ride review is coming soon, and we'll put all that travel to the test. Stay tuned!
I have an X2 1000 X-TR and I have just over 1500 miles on it. I have taken it trail riding and use it around home, and I gotta say it is an awesome machine! I dont regret anything about it. The power and suspension has met/exceeded my expectations. My hats off to Yamaha for this one!!
Great video except as others have said that you have the suspension numbers wrong. The front suspension travel is 13.3" and the rear is 15.5". I own a x2 1000 xt-r and love it.
This is one of the best decisions Yamaha has made to build this machine ! I had a 2022 Yamaha Rmax for 2 years and absolutely loved it ! But this year I purchased the new 2024 YXZ and I'm really impressed with it so far aswell. My brother actually just purchased one of these X2 1000's though and I recently did a ride review video on it actually and it definitely impressed me ! For the price of it you can't go wrong ! Now Yamaha should build a X4 1000 and that would be another top seller I'm sure !
I dont comment often. Now that said ,I own a 850 XTR and love it. An. 1000 XTR is a very smart move for Yamaha. I brought the 850 xtr in 2020 so The RMAX was not out. It hurt my feeling for a while because I felt that i could have waited for the RMAX. But now i am happy i did not get the Rmax. I will be upgrading to the 1000 X2 X-tr this year.
I bought one a couple of months ago and have put 600 trail kms on it. I just came back from VMUTS and had no problems whatsoever on any trail there. Lots of fun and a solid machine. But you definately want the D- mode switch. It's only $100 plug and play. What a difference it makes!
Looking forward to your next video of it on the trails. Thanks for posting!
I just bought mine. 173 miles in two days! Wider fender flares would be nice. Other than that the mode switch should be stock makes the SXS awesome!
I had a 2018viking ranch edition, but now own the exact same x2 1000 you are reviewing / same color too - i LOVE the ride and power of the X2 1000
According to Yamaha site in US it has 13.3" travel in the front and 15.5" in the rear.
I think they realized some trails are restricted to 64” max. Width and some are weight restricted to under 1800lbs is the reason this machine exists. I probably would have bought this model if it was out when i bought my Rmax. Same great engine & driveline.
You have the suspension travel wrong. For some reason Yamaha lists it incorrectly on their Canadian site. For the correct specs check the R-Spec numbers.
🔥🔥
This should be a great machine. I am wondering how the noise is compared to a Polaris 900.
For the peasants in a Build Back Better economy! The X2 1000 has 13.3/15.5" front/rear wheel travel. Canadian website is wrong.
Yes you are correct. The Canadian website has many errors. I pointed this out to them and my dealer but they don't seem to want to correct it. There have been errors in the Canadian website for years. For accurate specs I use the U.S. website.
Yamaha Canada it's time to update your website. You're missing a tremendous marketing opportunity. It doesn't reflect well when there are specs that aren't accurate. The specs are wrong on several models. When you compare the Rmax models for example it shows 29" tires on the SE model when they're actually 30". It has been like this since the fall of 2020 when the Rmax was first introduced.
Do one on the RMAX and YXZ
He's done both already, and just-recently on the YXZ.
Suspension is MUCH better than 9". Its a typo on Yamaha's specs.
How the hell did mud get in all these places 😂

Is it quieter than the 850? Is this engine more or less reliable?
Oh no it's not. Has the rmax engine which is one of the loudest sxs😂
Slightly quieter than the RMAX due to the clutch weights but not near as quiet as the 850. Ignore @MrOri. It's on par with most of the other liter SxS but can be made quieter with heavier clutch weights. Just as reliable as the 850 but I dare so more-so.
@@MassiveOverkill so the rmax is as loud as your yxz then? I said one of the loudest not the loudest. And not everyone is a mechanic to change the weights🤪
@@MrOri no the YXZ is quieter. It's not anywhere close to being as loud as a Teryx or 1st gen Commander and it's quieter than the KRX. That's why there are mechanics, so you don't have to do it yourself if you don't have the capability, but we have videos showing how to service it yourself, which many were able to do after following, plus every SxS owner should learn how to work on their own machines.
This makes me wonder why they won't throw the 1000 into a Viking 6 seater. The 700 is just a dog.
Viking will require a complete redesign to accommodate a larger/more-powerful motor.
@MassiveOverkill isn't the wolverine using the same old architecture?
@@cvalle3443 The Wolverine 2 seater SxS based on the 708cc motor was completely revamped in 2019 (4 seater X4 actually came first in 2018) and were known as the X2/X4 and got the 847 cc engine and brand new chassis/suspension and shares little if nothing with the 1st gen (as it's commonly referred to now). 2021 brought the RMAX2/4 1000 cc engines.
Please sort out the rear diff. Yes its a deal breaker. It wears tyres out, digs ruts in the drive way, tears up the turff, reduces turning radius, and puts unesessary load on the drive train. And quiten the engine down please. Everyone else can di the unlockable diff, why cant you?
Edit video, your suspension travel is wrong!
RMAX is still better all around
Yes, but for someone on a limited budget the X2 1000 is a great compromise and 90% as capable as the RMAX and actually more nimble.
And this is why I’ll just buy another Kawasaki Teryx 800S for $15,000…
Why, because you want to spend the same amount of money for a loud, HOT, crappy suspension (yes even the S) SxS with an outdated CVT that can't hold a candle to Yamaha's?
