Positioned in Yamaha's atv motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Yamaha Grizzly 700 relies on a 686 cc (41.9 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 102.0 x 84.0 mm (4.0 x 3.3 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 905 mm (35.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,250 mm (49.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
