!: Yamaha Utility ATV Range 2009 - The Big Bear 250cc Utility ATV

Yamaha Utility ATV Vehicles for 2009
It's very hard to keep up with manufacturers year on year when it comes to range and model, so what we decided to do for you is show you the whole Yamaha ATV Utility Bike in one pretty easy to understand blow.

How many model variations do they have and what are they?

Being fair to Yamaha Motors GB they seemed to have tied this up in a neater package for once, and if you need the model variations there are the Yamaha Grizzley ATV and the Yamaha Big Bear ATV. Each model has it's own variations so let's start from the beginning.
Yamaha Big Bear Utility ATV is the single cylinder 4stroke 230cc model (which is modelled as a 250cc) which is the smallest engine Yamaha ATV do in their range. The 230 air-cooled unit is the tried and tested engine Yamaha have been using for years. The way they say this is the Big Bears can be friendly as well as strong but should always come without major expense and still be fun. The gearing is pretty simple being a 2wheel drive system and the box, well that holds a sensibly simple arrangement of *5*semi-automatic gears and one reverse. Braking and suspension is covered by a Hydraulic Double Disc System on the front and a sealed drum rear brake. As like most machines now it has the standard McPherson Strut style suspension to the front and swingarm rear. Colours - there is only a few to chose from and the consist of BLACK - GREEN - RED!
So not much different there from last year apart from if you order a 2009 brochure you get a big surprise on the front cover - It has 2009 in big print!

As like most Utility ATV Quad Bikes they have a few bits that you can throw on for show and for purpose. The racking system is split front and back which means the front unit will take up tp 30KG maximum and the rear will take up to 45KG. On The Big Bear you also get a tow bar as standard so should you wish to race off home and move your trailer then you can get straight to it without parting with any more cash.

My overall opinion on this machine is this: It is what it is ans that an entry level ATV with a couple of bits thrown in for the sake of it. My guess is that Yamaha Japan probably over ordered on the racks as nearly ever bike has them as standard.
