2023 KODIAK 700 EPS
KEY FEATURES
CAPABILITY
Big-Bore Engine Built to Explore
Tuned for strong midrange power, the Kodiak 700 EPS’ 686cc motor combines big-bore performance with a fun, usable engine character. The result is a torque-laden power delivery that is exciting out on the trails, while still being smooth and quiet when exploring or working on the job site.
Drive System Air Intake
A high-mounted drive system air intake helps reduce drive system temperatures and assists in keeping water and debris from entering the drive case.
High Performance Tires
Maximizing available traction, the Kodiak 700 EPS features 25-inch Maxxis® tires that provide precise steering feel and feedback.
High Performance Ultramatic® Transmission
The Kodiak 700 EPS' Ultramatic® transmission features a gated shifter, dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive plus reverse gear, and the most advanced—and durable—CVT drive system available. An automatic centrifugal clutch maintains constant belt tension for reduced wear, and a sprag clutch delivers natural all-wheel engine braking.
High-Capacity Radiator
Slow-speed technical riding can place a lot of thermal demands on a liquid-cooled motor, so the Kodiak 700 EPS features a high-capacity radiator that delivers plenty of air flow for maximum cooling efficiency, and is positioned high in the frame for optimal protection.
High-Mounted Air Intake
Confidently tackle mud and water thanks to the Kodiak 700 EPS’ high-mounted air intake layout. The design increases power and torque while providing additional room for on-board storage and easy, toolless servicing of the foam air filter.
Stainless Steel Exhaust
To maintain clean-running performance for years, the Kodiak 700 EPS uses a stainless steel exhaust system and features a screen-type spark arrestor for great power with minimum noise output.
Strong, Durable Brakes
Strong and reliable braking comes standard on every Kodiak 700 EPS thanks to hydraulic front disc brakes and a sealed wet rear brake system.
Terrain-Tackling Ground Clearance
To handle nearly any terrain with ease, the Kodiak 700 EPS offers an impressive 10.8 inches of ground clearance and full-length composite skid plates for maximum underbelly protection.
Yamaha’s Exclusive On-Command® 4WD
With the simple push of a button, the three-position On-Command® 4WD system lets you switch between 2WD, limited-slip 4WD and a fully locked differential 4WD. An override button allows the engine to reach maximum rpm in full differential lock mode.
COMFORT
Class-Leading Power Steering
Minimize fatigue and attack every corner with Yamaha’s Electric Power Steering (EPS), the industry’s best balance of electric steering assist and positive trail feedback.
Compact Ergonomics
The low seat improves rider comfort and simplifies mounting and dismounting, while providing plenty of room for the rider to move during riding. Despite the full-size performance, the Kodiak 700 EPS features a more compact body design similar to a mid-sized ATV to ease overall feel and handling.
Independent Double Wishbone Front and Rear Suspension
Performance shocks with 5-way adjustable preload and an independent double wishbone suspension provide 7.1 inches of front wheel travel and 9.1 inches at the rear, ensuring excellent rider comfort even on the toughest trails.
Underseat Fuel Tank
An optimized 4.76-gallon fuel tank is located under the seat for excellent mass centralization and improved handling.
CONFIDENCE
10-Year-Belt Warranty
The Kodiak 700 EPS transmission uses its own cooling intake to maintain proper temperatures, an oversized belt to handle the torque of the large motor and Yamaha’s unique sprag clutch to maintain constant belt tension. The end result is a drivetrain built for years of trouble-free service that leaves the competition in the dust, and is backed by the industry's only 10-Year V-Belt Limited Warranty.
Aggressive and Durable Styling
Rugged composite front bumper resists scratching and won’t rust.
Brilliant Lighting
Paired halogen headlights ensures good visibility, while a handlebar-mounted halogen work light provides additional illumination that moves with rider input for added flexibility.
Built Real World Tough™, Assembled in the USA
