We are certainly impressed with the new 2021 Yamaha Wolverine RMAX2 1000 and can't wait to put it head to head against the Polaris General XP 1000. We look forward to your questions and comments and SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss our upcoming tests and shootouts.
Yes please, the sooner the better. I already put money down on the RMAX4 vs General.... so it's kind of a moot point for me but I'd still like to know your thoughts. I've researched both extensively, own a couple of Polaris units, went with the Yamaha. It's just a better machine all the way around......
@@AaronSteeleRealtor We are waiting on a General from Polaris for testing and comparison. Without a fair evaluation of the Polaris General XP we can't say which one would come out on top when the numbers get added up, but based on how the Wolverine performs in comparison to some of the more trail focused sport models we've tested, we'd feel darn happy about purchasing a RMAX.
I test drove this same RMAX last month in Moab. I was blown away, I was not expecting this premium of a machine in a SXS.The quality fit and finish is off the charts. I think the rest of the industry is going to be scrambling to try and match it (but cannot). The bar has been raised for sure.
Love the enthusiasm. We feel you! Chad just kept going on and on about the fit and finish, the interior. I feel like we left so much out in a 23 minute video.
It's a amazing roll-out of a new model, typical Yamaha style! I'm now dreaming of a Vmax powered Rmax 4seater master support vehicle! Cause that's how I Dream!! 😉👀💯🤯😬
This comment deserved attention much sooner. Please forgive us for not noticing sooner. Glad you enjoyed the test. Yamaha did a great job on this machine..
Wow that was an awesome review. This has been a long awaited shootout. It was surprising how well the RMAX did. Just goes to show they all have their strengths and weaknesses. Any of these machine well get you anywhere and back. I think really it comes down to looks and comfort for the individual. Good job guys keep the great content coming!!!!!!!!!
Glad you liked it. A lot of work went into this one. All these machines did well. Scoring and timing aside, they're all great machines and these aren't race cars but of course we have to race them.
@@Supertramp01 the base model comes with the most important stuff and arguably better tires. A friend in testing at Yamaha tells us the carnivores have a slightly plusher ride with their rounded profile where do you more Square profile Dirt Commander 2.0 S yield a bit more grip. We will be trying a set of dirt Commander 2.0 xanh our test unit soon. Congratulations on your new whip.
@@UTVonDemand the bells and whistles are nice to have but a winch is really all I'll need and saving thousands for a base model that is just minus the bells and whistles works for me. Curious about your tire comment though. I guess I'll find out soon enough.... Thanks for the input
@@Supertramp01 as the person who filmed and edited the test, I'm with you, I would probably buy the base model myself. We were very happy to see that they offered a base model which really isn't all that basic. Please report back on how you like it.
You can buy and install without much effort the D Mode option on the base RMAX. As well as easy to install the the interior foot well lighting. If I got the base I would only have the winch installed, the rest is easy.
Just got back from a side by side comparison of the RMAX and the General XP, on paper they are similar, but in person I find more pro's to the RMAX than I do the General. Starting with the pros on the RMAX, beefier shock brackets and most frame and steel fittings/welds, fit and finish, dash layout, latching interior compartments, interior lighting, winch, electrical protection throughout, just to name a few. Pros on the General, seat goes back a little farther, lock in ride for accessories, outside door handles, higher doors to eliminate the Yamaha shoulder bolster, inlays for windshield and rear window, lots of options for accessories. I too am looking forward to a ride comparison of the two machines.
Also compared the KRX at the same dealer and loved the comfort and ergonomics of it, but the fit and finish wasn't even close to the RMAX or General. I do like the KRX and it was on my list of machines to buy for 2021 but after doing a side by side comparison I'm not sure its on my list anymore.
Thanks for sharing your findings. We haven't had the chance to get the two machines side-by-side yet. We are slated to receive a General for testing. Good info. Thanks.
Without looking at both I can tell you Yamaha is the winner they build quality stuff just like honda. Polaris is garbage compared to Yamahas build quality.
I don't know if yamaha ATV are like their motorcycle, but the motorcycle are bullet proof. I bought an FJR 1300 with 100000 miles on it, sold it 5 years later with 120000 miles with just basic maintenance. Sold it for 500$ less than I paid. I had 6 yamaha motorcycle so far a few honda, suzuki, kawasaki. Nothing beat Yamaha so far.
Picked my 2021 RMAX up 2.5 weeks ago, base model. I have a windshield on order, and will be getting the winch and GPS soon. I'm doing the 20 hour break in period right now with 8.5 hours on the machine thus far, no more than 1/2 throttle (I think..Lol) I can you personally, this thing is a beast! I cannot wait to go full throttle and let her fly. I have only driven 41mph max, mostly between 25-35 for break in period. It climbs like a goat. I am 6'4" 200 and I fit the best out of the other SXS I sat in. It gets looks everywhere I trailer it! Love the bed for supplies.
Yamaha? Twin 1000 more hp than some sport. More travel, faster than a General while retaining 10 years warranty for the parts that other manufacturers still dream to make it reliable! Yamaha strikes again! Let me just ask one thing, if the R-max is a work and play machine, what will be the new play machine....YXZ-R1 whith 22-24 in travel ??😎
Hard to say what's coming next . Still enjoying the butterflies from this machine. We love it when a manufacturer steps their game up and Yamaha certainly did.
This exact 2021 RMAX2 SE (in Belgium) model is what I bought new from the dealer a week ago in 2024! Maaaaaaan I can't wait to drive it, after seeing this vid even more! Nice upgrade from my 07 Grizz... which I miss tho 😜
Great review! This new RMAX is a beast for sure! I love mine and have some reviews and other content on my channel of it. I have a feeling that Yamaha has a winner on their hands for sure! VERY little negatives with this machine I feel like.
I’m so glad I picked up my base model gray rmax 4 seater this week. They are selling like crazy. No LE’s available anywhere though, that’s what I wanted but I like the gray color better anyway. Gonna be fun and a money pit adding everything else...😉😉
Confirmed!😎 we remember that specifically because we we're a little disappointed that it didn't come on the base model until the guys at Yamaha told us it was a simple $300 add-on.
@@duanesnow424 my transmission crapped out, apparently it’s a issue Yamaha is working on they’ve got it in the shop for warranty work other than that it’s great, even with the issue I would still purchase again
@@duanesnow424 conciderd the Polaris general but this one is fully loaded and 8k cheaper and come to find out it beat the general in everything, plus this one is shorter than any rzr, and I wanted it to fit in my garage, no complaints on the Yamaha except the transmission issue but it’s understandable I’m just glad it’s under warranty
@@EverythingsTactical how many miles on it when the transmission broke.? I have a Base model Rmax4 with 65 miles on it. And what exactly went wrong? Did you get it back yet and how's it seem now?
Got my 4 seater , the adventure pro tablet got a bit wet I guess and the screen it’s not responsive it’s my only negative , everything els it’s a legit machine !
The name drives me nuts. Yamaha produced an atv named wolverine and a helicopter named r-max. They couldn’t come up with anymore names so they are reusing them? It just seems so dumb to me
It's kind of funny. When they came out with the Wolverine X2 and X4 we asked them why they were recycling the name and they told us something on the order of good names are becoming harder to come by. Just think of it is a really hot chick with a name you don't like. Come up with a nickname.😄
This machine is really starting to grow on me, but do we really need another dump bed utility machine, this has the ingredients to easily be a sport SXS, the travel for an A arm is very impressive, still would rather have a longer wheelbase with a swing arm setup, I love the front end look and stance, but hate the look and do not need the rear dump bed 🤢🤮, all said and done Im sure this will be bulletproof and hope the YXZ gets this design language very soon
Fortunately, the dump bed doesn't do much of anything to hamper performance other than add a little bit of weight. We kind of like having it because it helps reduce the need to turn right around and buy a cargo box although they are available if you want one. We have seen videos of other media testing them out west with a spare tire laying flat strapped down in the bed. No tire carrier needed. We bet that there will be a lot of sport enthusiasts who will go for the added feature of the dump bed. No side-by-side is perfect for everyone but we think this one will certainly be a great choice for a lot of people. Thanks for checking out the review and sharing your feedback we love hearing it.
@@UTVonDemand That’s true I guess, but look at the KRX, easily can fit a 32 inch tire in the bed and have plenty of cargo and usability without having to be utilitarian, plus the cages look wack when you have a dump bed lol
I've driven the RMAX2 XTR and now have the US RMAX4 LE and the RMAX4 both rides better and has better stability. th-cam.com/video/JyvAvELev2o/w-d-xo.html
@@UTVonDemand that and the staggered setup as the RMAX4 also has 11" wide rear tires vs the RMAX2's 10". The extra wheelbase length doesn't hurt either.
That RMax looks pretty good and well build but it's soooo heavy... 930 kg, it's 200kg more than the General XP and 300kg more than the RZR XP 1000, that's a huge difference
When you see the frame up close, you’ll know why it weighs more. It makes the Polaris frames look like play toys! The R-Max is made to last! I’m very impressed! 💪👍🏻
This was a good comment right up to your assumption. While we don't always interview our drivers on camera we sometimes do. You will sometimes see them on camera in other videos and if you are familiar with our content then you might know who is driving that machine. Also, we always drill our drivers for information off camera. Mentioning who the river is lets you know it wasn't the cameraman, commentator, or representative from Yamaha doing the driving. Truth be told, we receive no direct financial support for these reviews or on any type of ongoing basis from any of the OEMs Yamaha, Honda, Polaris, etc.
It was. Mild to Wild off road it's only open two times a year for big right events. Other than that, it's someone's really awesome backyard. We had to park all to ourselves.
Dear lord. When will Yamaha drop that engine in the Viking so normal people who have land and hunt can have a machine centered around UTILITY USE AND WORK!!
The Lord wanted me to respond to you and tell you that the RMAX is capable of doing quite a bit of work. We are asking him to inspire Yamaha to put this engine in the Viking as well.
@@LikelyCandidate After looking at our unit and reaching out to Yamaha directly here's what we are told. Yes, we still see a do not sit symbol on the RMAX bed. Yamaha tells us that is because they don't want hundreds of pounds sitting in one small area of the gate. with most of your deer being held in the bed, or slid across the gate, they seem confident that you won't have a problem hauling a deer out in the unit. This is coming from their PR department directly. If you have any follow ups you would like us to check on, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks.
So would have to unload the unit from my trailer because of the trailer side rails just to fill it up with gas? Or fill gas cans😂. Machine looks dope but that idk.
2 seats 💺 it’s very nice 👍 look great and I liked but 4 seats 💺 it’s kinda cheating worthless useless :( Who design with 4 seats 💺 must be a lonely no kids only dog 🐩 or a cat 🐈 :( let’s just say you get for passenger where are you going to put a water 💦 cooler food 🥘? I guess they were thinking something else not supposed to think when they design :(
Do your research. Dont just listen to a fancy commercial like I did. Not happy with my x2 and pissed with yamaha as they couldn't even return a call or email and defiantly ZERO help getting anything fixed. Parked rattle box at 22hrs. Bring back the old yamaha. All my toys are yamaha and after 30 years im now going to polaris.
@@duanesnow424 biggest complaint is yamaha would not return my call and when i got a hold of them they said and I quote " fix it your self its not that hard" brake down non stop. 22hr in and parked. Read this clearly NO WARRANTY on any thing and I mean any thing. And make sure not to park it on a hill and have fun with the bent frame lol also i am not a hard mud driver. It broke down just doing the break in driving no faster then 30 on a flat road. Flat out junk. I now drive my old 1982 honda again.
@@jeffproulx3388 did it brake down or break down what exactly broke they do have a warranty and a 10 year belt warranty. Why can't you park on a hill and why is the frame bent. Your comments are vague at best. With no real detail and the wording is as if you're a telemarketer trying to renew my cars warranty.
@@dwightrhodes2051 I said you can't go wrong with yamaha. I had yamaha everything. Then I got a new yamaha product and noticed the difference from the old yamaha . the new yamaha will not and I mean will not return any email even if you spend 27 thousand like me. They will not and read this clearly they will not fix anything. I don't care if your god. Nothing. And I quote from head yamaha " its so easy just to fix it your self" parked at 22hrs. If you still want one have fun with your bent frame. My x2 came bent from factory but I have seen lots bend on the trail. They added more metal on the 2021 but dose not fix the issue of them being dirty and not talking care of loyal customers. I had way more issues then that just saying. Parked at 22hrs with no help from a million dollar company :(

Hope it was on a closed circuit sure are hogging the road!
It was. Mild to Wild off road it's only open two times a year for big right events. Other than that, it's someone's really awesome backyard. We had to park all to ourselves.
Dear lord. When will Yamaha drop that engine in the Viking so normal people who have land and hunt can have a machine centered around UTILITY USE AND WORK!!
The Lord wanted me to respond to you and tell you that the RMAX is capable of doing quite a bit of work. We are asking him to inspire Yamaha to put this engine in the Viking as well.
@@UTVonDemand Jesus is real y’all. ❤️
@@GulfSoftwash yes he is❤
@@UTVonDemand is there still a "no sitting" symbol on the tailgate? I'd like to know that I can put a deer in it without breaking something.
@@LikelyCandidate After looking at our unit and reaching out to Yamaha directly here's what we are told. Yes, we still see a do not sit symbol on the RMAX bed. Yamaha tells us that is because they don't want hundreds of pounds sitting in one small area of the gate. with most of your deer being held in the bed, or slid across the gate, they seem confident that you won't have a problem hauling a deer out in the unit. This is coming from their PR department directly. If you have any follow ups you would like us to check on, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks.

You must be new to side by sides? Yes a belt in the CVT transmission. Just like every other sport utility on the market.
2 seats 💺 it’s very nice 👍 look great and I liked but 4 seats 💺 it’s kinda cheating worthless useless :(
Who design with 4 seats 💺 must be a lonely no kids only dog 🐩 or a cat 🐈 :( let’s just say you get for passenger where are you going to put a water 💦 cooler food 🥘?
I guess they were thinking something else not supposed to think when they design :(
Do your research. Dont just listen to a fancy commercial like I did. Not happy with my x2 and pissed with yamaha as they couldn't even return a call or email and defiantly ZERO help getting anything fixed. Parked rattle box at 22hrs. Bring back the old yamaha. All my toys are yamaha and after 30 years im now going to polaris.
your mix up you mean all your toys Polaris your next buy from now on Yamaha
Whats wrong with the X2? What are the main complaints? Thanks
@@duanesnow424 biggest complaint is yamaha would not return my call and when i got a hold of them they said and I quote " fix it your self its not that hard" brake down non stop. 22hr in and parked. Read this clearly NO WARRANTY on any thing and I mean any thing. And make sure not to park it on a hill and have fun with the bent frame lol also i am not a hard mud driver. It broke down just doing the break in driving no faster then 30 on a flat road. Flat out junk. I now drive my old 1982 honda again.
@@jeffproulx3388 did it brake down or break down what exactly broke they do have a warranty and a 10 year belt warranty. Why can't you park on a hill and why is the frame bent. Your comments are vague at best. With no real detail and the wording is as if you're a telemarketer trying to renew my cars warranty.
@@dwightrhodes2051 I said you can't go wrong with yamaha. I had yamaha everything. Then I got a new yamaha product and noticed the difference from the old yamaha . the new yamaha will not and I mean will not return any email even if you spend 27 thousand like me. They will not and read this clearly they will not fix anything. I don't care if your god. Nothing. And I quote from head yamaha " its so easy just to fix it your self" parked at 22hrs. If you still want one have fun with your bent frame. My x2 came bent from factory but I have seen lots bend on the trail. They added more metal on the 2021 but dose not fix the issue of them being dirty and not talking care of loyal customers. I had way more issues then that just saying. Parked at 22hrs with no help from a million dollar company :(
