Yamaha Motor Corp., USA, has announced that the Yamaha Outdoor Access Initiative has awarded more than $100,000 in funds and equipment to nine grant applicants in the third quarter of 2016. The Yamaha Outdoor Access Initiative supports off-highway (OHV) riders, as well as those who rely on access to land for camping, hunting, fishing and more.

Yamaha Motor Corp. is again sponsoring National Hunting and Fishing Day (NHF Day) with an ATV sweepstakes that will launch this month. The NHF Day 2017 will be held on Sept. 23.

It's not often you want to bring a Rhino to a convention, but Yamaha's is a very obvious exception to the rule. The company is displaying its Tactical Black Special Edition Rhino 700 Fl on the floor this week at SHOT Show 2013—and later this year, the company is giving it away.

Of paramount importance for Yamaha engineers in the design of the Kodiak 450 ATV was bringing to market a mid-sized ATV that would accommodate small, medium and large riders, bring immediate confidence to the novice ATV enthusiast, and meet the expectations of the seasoned ATV rider.

In an ATV market that touts ever-larger side-by-side vehicles capable of hauling four humans and untold pounds of gear and game, many hunters still choose to use a four-wheeler. A four-wheeler is, after all, cheaper than a SxS. It is also easier to maneuver in tight spots, rides in a pickup bed and sits nicely in the back of a garage. Yamaha considered all this when it designed the 2019 Kodiak 450.

Dubbed the “ultimate terrain tackler,” the 2021 Wolverine RMAX 1000 features an all-new chassis and engine, a new Yamaha Drive-Mode power-delivery system, a Fox suspension, driver-centric comforts and a bed capable of hauling up to 600 pounds.

Starting with a clean slate, design engineers at Yamaha have developed a unit that is more compact than its bigger brother, the Viking, but nonetheless delivers what many sportsmen require. The two-seater Wolverine R-Spec is rugged, powerful and accommodates off-road enthusiasts who enjoy performance, and meets the needs of hunters who demand utility and prowess to work a food plot or set up base camp. It’s made to work in rough terrain.
