2020 Grizzly 90
2020 Grizzly 90 The grizzly is the top dog – he, bear in Yamaha’s ATV lineup. In the 700cc class, the grizzly has earned drivers ‘ respect for reliability and longevity. For 2020 Grizzly 90 has made some key updates to the venerable grizzly line, adding both sophistication and performance to the top-tier SE and LE models. The most noticeable is the brand new tires installed on the new aluminum alloy wheels. Measuring 27 inches, the oversized Maxxis features Zilla with double-composite sidewalls and a wide, flake-like tread pattern that digs through loose soil and mud as expected.
Part of our test loop through the rugged French river, Ontario, wilderness took us over a swinging swamp. When the path was first planned for this adventure, it was at the end of a hot, fairly dry summer, but our event happened immediately after a series of consecutive rainstorms that put a good chunk of our track into a mud bog Turned.
As the childlike idiots, we are, my colleagues and I were delighted to stop in the middle of the muck and then piss the gas to send the air mud over the unfortunate victims. While none of the machines threatened to actually get stuck in the mud, even at worst the grizzly was remarkably effortless, yes, these tires are a welcome addition.
27-inch tires are available on some of the other manufacturers ‘ larger class quads, but this is the first we’ve seen them offered on a 700cc class machine. However, the big single is a smooth and free-spinning engine that delivers a particularly pleasant middle-class kick. In a few of the spots on our test loop, we were able to open the machines a bit and the Grizz showed its readiness every time.

2020 Grizzly 90 has also tweaked CVT transmission with a six percent reduction than before. The grizzly offers 2WD, 4WD with limited slip and 4WD with the rear differential closure. At 320kg, the grizzly is not an easy Raptor ATV, but compared to the bulkier side-by-side units we also made the pilgrimage, the Grizzly’s relative sobriety was fun and responsive about the varied terrain we experienced. The electric power steering (EPS) was subtle enough to give even good ground feel through the beams, but it helped take any heaviness off the front as it steered through the narrow confines of the forest paths.
The grizzly can carry 50kg forward and 90kg on the rear rack and will tow down to 600kg. With this last number, it corresponds to Suzuki’s new KingQuad 750 and is slightly ahead of Kawasaki’s Brute Force 750 despite the V-Twin Season with a hot rod. Both Can-Am and Polaris make bigger, meaner and more serious mud animals with full-liter displacement and significantly more power, but these units weigh much more and sound in at least a few great sweethearts.
Yamaha’s new Grizzly EPS SE is doing a great job of bridging the gap between affordable, machines and the wild and hazy Lita quads that add to the brand’s iconic reliability.
