Howdy... dealer says my '22 EPS XT-R is supposed to be here next weekend. I will generally be towing with a '12 GX 460

I guess glad I am getting a '22 as dealer says "2023 won't be introduced until mid-august and probably not shipping for long after that. As I understand there is also going to be a big price increase."

I get it something fancy with features might come out next year or a few but wanted something I could count on as reliable. I realize always a roll of the dice but hoping odds are in my favor with this unit.

 

[Xa32f634W]

Thanks!

I need to read up on some mods I came across ... specifically the fuel tank vent.

I will do my research before asking questions

 

[Xa32f634W]

It will be tough sleeping the next couple nights... my rig came in today... gonna pick up Sunday. I think it is time for a few early 🍺🍺

I am loving this thing!!!!!

Just picked about 3 hours ago.

Gotta love a small town trusted dealership... it was loaded up in my trailer and I had the key before we had even finalized the paperwork and I had cut a check.

 

[Xa32f634W]

Ordered and going to add the following:

- Heat Demon clamp on quad zone in case I add heated seat later

- Rear Rack Riser / always find these useful for cargo... other plans for front so not gonna get that for now

EDIT: Decided to do front as well

Road Legal Kit

Kinda on the fence and will see how well the plastic skids hold up... I do have full Richochet on my other quads. One area that seemed unprotected was footwells so picking up some skids for those. I imagine the first one I break will cause me to order a full set.

2-Piece Floor Board Skid Plate Set, Yamaha Grizzly 700

Floorboard skid plates for the Yamaha Grizzly 700 and Grizzly 550 offer a great way to keep your plastic footwells from puncture and damage. UHMW overlay option

This last winter was first where you could license to ride tracked ATV/UTV on snowmobile trails in Washington state. I have sleds too but a nice option.

 

[Xa32f634W]

There is a positive drive-ability difference with this Yami that is superior to my Polaris models. It must be the Ultramatic at minimum… the Popos are so clunky

I have numerous Polaris sleds as well…and some really old early ‘90s Yami sleds

I had mine on order since early March IIRC. You might check ATVTrader,,,, there are couple reportedly in Oregon but no idea if they still have them. Bend and Eugene

I think last time I heard one that was sitting in a showroom in WA state was back in spring and it was an SE that was already sold.

You can substitute goggles like this to forego the windshield.

I got a couple of my Polaris quads licensed back when the law when live back in 2013-2014. A lot of lobbying went on. I plan to license it for snowmobile access this year with the tracks. That law went live last year.

Mine is mainly used in Kittitas County... curious if Pullman requires the windshield.

I'm not sure if it is this one but saw a video or post here where someone had one that was fairly easy to remove.

I never inquired further years back but WA-DOL didn't know what to tell me about towing a boat with quad.... in the end they said "nothing that says you can't"

I'm talking like 12-16" aluminum

Windshield recomendations

Would like to purchase a windshield for my 2014 SE for winter riding. I have looked at the one on the Yamaha site and it seems ok, there is another one listed there with a fairing ABA-FAIRN-00-WS but seems to only be the replacement windshield and I cannot find the item with the fairing and...

Yamaha Quick Attach Windshield

Hello all, I am a new member and recently(yesterday) purchased a brand new Yamaha Kodiac 450 (no EPS). This is my first ATV and I got few extras to go along with it. One of the additional items I ordered was the Quick Attach Windshield (SKU: ATV-32800-26-BK) from Yamaha but there were no...

I'm looking at a windshield for the 2017 Grizzly EPS SE. The VIP Air at nearly $400 for everything is quite the unit. I'd prefer it, but dang...that's a wad of cash. Yamaha Grizzly 700 2017 Matte Silver YG-16 Model* ATV windshield / fairing The PowerMadd ProTEK is at the other end of the...

I paid $7,800 (including sales tax back) in 2004 for a '04.5 Sportsman 700 EFI... that would be inflation adjusted to around $12.2K USD today. No idea what Grizzly's cost back then but I thought they were more than the Polaris models.

Here is what I paid with sales tax for mine. Freight was $685 alone and Dealer Prep was $300... a grand in sales tax as well.

 

[Xa32f634W]

If I hadn't purchased a few accessories it would have been $13,637.26.

Nothing I could have saved purchasing out of state as WA state would collect the tax at registration/license time.

There were others lined up to buy it so really no negotiating room either.

I need to research an easy way to get this stock WARN to work with an external controller. I have a WARN 3.0ce on my old 2004 Polaris and a WARN PV3500 ProVantage Winch on my '13 Polaris. The older one has an external port that I mounted off the headlight pod while the latter one has a port right on the winch switch.

 

[Xa32f634W]

I'm really happy with the colors... I like the grey front & black rear with the orange lettering.
