2020 Yamaha Kodiak 700 EPS SE

Capability

• HIGH-PERFORMANCE ULTRAMATIC® TRANSMISSION: Kodiak 700's Ultramatic® transmission features a gated shifter, dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive plus reverse gear, and is the most advanced—and durable—CVT drive system available. An automatic centrifugal clutch maintains constant belt tension for reduced belt wear and a sprag clutch delivers natural all-wheel engine braking.
• BIG BORE ENGINE BUILT TO EXPLORE: Packing practical, fun and usable power, the Kodiak’s engine balances big bore power with a strong midrange. The Kodiak 700 EPS SE features a 686cc motor with optimized torque, power delivery and character that is fun and exciting on trails while still being smooth and quiet when exploring or on the job site.
• YAMAHA’S EXCLUSIVE ON-COMMAND® 4WD: The three-position On-Command 4WD system lets you switch between 2WD, limited-slip 4WD and a fully locked differential 4WD all with the simple push of a button. An override button allows engine to reach maximum rpm in full diff lock mode, and a straight driveshaft layout eliminates U-joints for reduced friction, noise, vibration, and maintenance.
• HIGH-MOUNTED AIR INTAKE: Tackle mud and water thanks to the Kodiak 700’s high-mounted air intake layout. The design increases power and torque while providing additional room for on-board storage and easy, tool-less 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.
• 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 with fan assist that delivers plenty of air flow for maximum cooling efficiency—and it’s positioned high in the frame for optimal protection.
• DRIVE SYSTEM AIR INTAKE: Specially designed, 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.
• STRONG, DURABLE BRAKES: Strong and reliable braking comes standard on every Kodiak 700 EPS thanks to hydraulic front disc brakes matched with a sealed wet rear brake system.
• GENEROUS GROUND CLEARANCE: To handle nearly any terrain with ease, the Kodiak 700 EPS offers an impressive 11.3 inches of maximum ground clearance and full-length composite skid plates, for maximum underbelly protection.

Comfort

• INDEPENDENT DOUBLE WISHBONE FRONT AND REAR SUSPENSION: Independent double wishbone suspension, with 7.6 inches of front wheel travel and 9.1 inches at the rear, provides excellent rider comfort even on the toughest trails, thanks to nitrogen-charged shocks with 5-way adjustable preload.
• CLASS-LEADING POWER STEERING: Minimize fatigue and tackle every trail with ease thanks to Yamaha’s Electric Power Steering (EPS), the industry’s best balance of electric steering assist and positive trail feedback.
• UNDERSEAT FUEL TANK: An optimized 4.76-gallon fuel tank is located under the seat for excellent mass centralization and handling.
• COMPACT ERGONOMICS: A plush seat improves rider comfort for extended days exploring every trail, with plenty of room for the rider to move during aggressive riding. And 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.

Confidence

• AGGRESSIVE AND DURABLE STYLING: Rugged composite front bumper resists scratching and won’t rust, while injection-molded fenders and CV joint guards protect against rock and debris damage.
• 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. The LED taillights are bright and long-lasting, too.
• READY FOR ACCESSORIES: The Kodiak 700 EPS SE was engineered in concert with a range of accessories for perfect fit and function, for nearly every type of ride you can find. With a standard 12V power point, you can keep devices charged, too.
• EXTENSIVE CARGO CAPACITY: Rugged, large-diameter steel cargo racks with durable wrinkle paint finish can pack a total of 308 pounds combined (110 lb. front, 198 lb. rear). An on-board storage compartment keeps things dry, too.
• WORK-READY TOW CAPACITY: Center-mounted, heavy-duty two-inch receiver comes standard on Kodiak 700 EPS and can tow more than 1,300 lb.
• BUILT REAL WORLD TOUGH™, ASSEMBLED IN THE USA: As with other Yamaha ATVs and Side-by-Sides, the Kodiak is assembled in the USA to meet Yamaha’s exacting standards for durability and reliability.
