Features

Engine

Powerful 999cc Parallel Twin Engine
- The Wolverine® RMAX™2 1000 delivers class-leading power and smooth performance, thanks to its, powerful 999cc, DOHC, eight-valve, parallel twin engine, featuring legendary Yamaha durability.
Smooth, Quiet Powertrain
- Helical-cut drivetrain gearing, rubber-mounted and counterbalanced engine, with a variety of noise and vibration reducing inserts around cabin make for one of the quietest cabins in the industry
The Toughest Transmission
- The Proven Off-Road technology of Yamaha’s Ultramatic® system is unmatched in the industry. The CVT system utilizes a, centrifugal wet clutch purpose-built to withstand the power from the 999cc engine, and a constant tension belt system for tackling obstacles in high rev range without fear of damaging the belt. When more torque is needed, the low gear is perfect for challenging conditions. The robust CVT system means less time switching gears and more fun taking on any terrain.
On-Command 4WD
- Renowned On-Command® 4WD system lets you switch between Turf Mode, 2WD, limited-slip 4WD and a fully locked differential 4WD
Reliable Engine Lubrication and Cooling
- Large oil capacity circulates in the dry-slump system with a liquid-cooled oil cooler
- Features a big radiator with integrated blower
Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T)
- Utilizes YCC-T®, a drive-by-wire system that converts the drivers command into precise throttle control. Throttle response is further improved thanks to a high-response servo motor for ultrafast throttle application

Chassis

Advanced, Sport-Focused Suspension
- The advanced and heavy-duty suspension is designed to provide maximum articulation in low speed situations, a balanced ride feeling when trail riding, and the highest level of bottoming resistance with a higher-speed damping feel when maneuvering the Wolverine RMAX2 1000. The wide-arc A-arms paired with the FOX® 2.0 QS3 shocks deliver 14.2-inches of travel up front and an amazing 16.9-inches of travel in the rear. The new FOX® 2.0 QS3 shocks can be easily switched – without tools – between three custom positions to enhance comfort during relaxed driving, increase damping for normal trail riding and maximize damping during sport driving.
Terrain-Tackling Chassis
- For maximum terrainability, the Wolverine RMAX2 1000 features a solid and durable frame that is designed to provide superior off-road confidence. Along with its class-leading suspension, 30-inch tires, and an optimized wheel base provide a balanced contact-to-ground feel in extreme terrain.
Comfortable, Secure Seats
- An exceptional seating position provides a planted feel and reduces fatigue, which is essential for occupants to enjoy the driving experience. The new Wolverine RMAX2 1000 keeps occupants comfortable and secure with its wide bolstering and additional leg room for larger occupants. The driver's seat has increased adjustability compared to previous Wolverine models, combined with a new no-tool, easy-to-adjust, six-position seat belt for added comfort.
Versatile Cargo Bed
- The Wolverine RMAX2 1000 features a tilting cargo bed to simplify hauling duties. Built with hydraulic assistance and a robust latch system, the bed transports up to 600 pounds with multiple steel tie-down points to secure cargo or attach accessories. Add in a full 2,000 pounds of towing capacity through a standard 2-inch receiver, and the Wolverine RMAX2 1000 is ready to get to work when you are.
Heavy-Duty Three-Piece Door Design
- A three piece, easy-to-open door design features a steel inner structure, a molded outer door skin and a molded inner door panel for a quality feel. The robust inner door handles keep the mud out to work smoothly, even in the harshest of conditions. The doors feature integrated snap out speaker panels for easier upgradability, and soft touchpoints for an automotive feel so occupants are kept comfortable for all-day driving. To ease entering and exiting the vehicle, the front doors feature an enlarged opening, 63% wider than previous Wolverine models. Further increasing comfort, the front shoulder bolster shapes were optimized to expand the upper body opening to maintain a great, secure-feeling on the trail for riders big and small.
Protective Suntop
- For extra comfort and protection, the suntop is engineered to keep the sun and other elements off the occupants as much as possible, while offering the ultimate in accessory incorporation with integrated sealing surfaces and mounting points for a variety of Yamaha Genuine Accessories

Details

Automotive-Style Soft Touchpoints
- Featuring the most automotive-style driver and passenger soft touchpoints in its class, the Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport provides a more relaxed experience even over rough terrain. The steering wheel and passenger handhold have the best shape and soft-touch in the market while providing a quality feel way beyond the competitors' hard plastic. Additional comfort points have been strategically placed in locations where knees and arms frequently contact interior components.
An Imposing Figure with Next Generation Style
- The Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport wraps next-level capability with an imposing stance, highlighted by aggressive front-end styling and rugged tires. The stealthy front LED headlights and "evil eye" marker lights give this new generation a distinctive look on the trail, and the LED taillight, brake light, and reverse light provide added visibility. With its eye-catching colors, the RMAX's appearance is only rivaled by its own trail-dominating performance.

Confidence

The Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport comes with factory-installed 14-inch beadlock wheels. With aggressive styling and bold Yamaha Blue accents they not only look great, they improve tire retention and increase driver confidence while navigating rough off-road conditions.

Comfort

Taking the Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport to another level of performance, a sport-tuned suspension features dual spring FOX® 2.0 shocks with full high- and low-speed compression adjustability along with preload adjustment. In addition to greater adjustability, this advanced Fox suspension also offers a more taut, sporty feel and increased high-speed bottoming resistance—and does this without sacrificing low-speed comfort and compliance—giving owners the best of both worlds. The Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport boasts best-in-class 13.8 inches of ground clearance, along with an impressive 14.2 inches of front suspension travel and 16.9 inches of rear travel—so it’s ready to tackle just about anything you can throw at it.

Capability

Further adding to the proven off-road capability are asymmetrical 30-inch GBC® Terra Master tires. Working in conjunction with GBC, these high-performance tires are tuned specifically to match the power, suspension and handling characteristics of the Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport. The unique asymmetrical tread design gives owners two different tread configuration options—one side for soft to intermediate terrain, or flip the tire and the other side is tailored towards intermediate to hard terrain. Additionally, the GBC Terra Master® tires are 10-ply rated for exceptional durability and puncture resistance—and come in a square tire setup offers one-spare-fits-all convenience.
