/// Wide-range, long-life CVT |
Not only does Yamaha's CVT provide excellent starting acceleration, the belts are legendary for their bulletproof reliability. Nice to know when you're on the back 40 or exploring remote areas. |
/// Air intake system |
Large capacity air intake system improves high RPM range output. Bottom line? More top end power and easier servicing. |
/// Front and rear discs |
Large diameter, front and rear disc brakes with dual piston calipers ensure good balance and power during braking, with and without cargo loads. Comes equipped with mechanical parking disc brake. |
/// Reliable, Yamaha power |
Rock-solid 686cc, liquid-cooled 4-stroke, 4-valve, fuel-injected engine with broad power from extremely low speeds to high RPM. Thanks in part to combustion chamber shape, revised compression ratio, cam profile and forged piston, the Viking puts out broad, usable power you can rely on. |
/// "On-command" mode selection |
Driver-operated 'on-command' mode selection allows for differential shifting based on changing road and ground conditions. Simple, rotary type switch for smooth operation. |
/// Suntop |
Factory-installed suntop |
/// Engine Braking |
Yamaha's engine braking system reduces the need for frequent breaking during challenging situations like tight turns and downhill inclines. |
/// Large diameter headlights |
Not every ride happens during the day. Large diameter headlights provide excellent illumination. |
/// Maxxis Big Horn Tires |
All-new Maxxis Big Horn 2.0 tires have a durable 6-ply rating. Radial construction provides for better shock absorption. |
/// Secure footrests |
A partition splits the centre passenger's feet from interfering with the drivers to aid in safe operation and a secure riding position. |
/// Steel Skid Plate |
Smooth steel plate offers underside protection of vital components. Up-turned side pieces help to prevent Viking from getting stuck. |
/// Operational switch layout |
Electric starter switch, shift lever and parking brake are all in close proximity to the right of the steering wheel for good usability. |
/// Receiver |
2" receiver comes standard on all Vikings. Insert hitch and you're set to tow with 1,100lbs of payload. |
/// Body Design |
Apart from the impressive new styling, the body has been designed to prevent or minimize damage from trees, rocks and roots using strategic positioning of parts and durable materials. Good news when you're going to hard-to-reach areas. |
/// Walk through floor |
Flat floor increases on-board ease of movement while and makes for easy entry/exit from either side. Handy when work requires a lot of stops and starts. |
/// Steel cargo bed and dump latch |
Sturdy steel bed with 600lb load capacity is ready to work. Tilt the cargo bed with a simple unlock lever. |
/// Head Protection |
Larger 2" diameter roof support meets or exceeds all regulations. Helps protect the operator in case of accident or falling objects. |
/// Tread Distance |
Yamaha's front tread distance of 1310mm and rear span of 1290mm is the optimal distance to straddle conventional crop rows. |
/// Standard Bed Mat |
Thick and durable bed mat protects the steel bed and reduces unwanted noise and vibrations emanating from the cargo area. |
/// Comfortable, 3-person seating |
The backrest of the centre seat is tilted 5 degrees farther than the driver and outside passenger backrests, creating an off-set seating position that allows all on board to comfortably fit without rubbing shoulders. Supportive urethane cushioning is molded to fit the rider's waist for better comfort and safety. The result is the experience of being embedded in the Viking, not 'sitting on' like some competitor models. |
