The recent millennia saw the rise of V-belt transmission,
four-stroke, fuel injection, and the Yamaha Grizzly 660. Following
closely behind the Raptor, this almost-big-bore machine addressed its
precursor’s shortcomings when it entered the ATV scene in 2002. It had a
sporty look, a powerful engine, and a utilitarian build that promised
tons of fun on the ranch as it did on the trails.
The Yamaha Grizzly 660 was a spin-off of the Raptor 660,
produced from 2001 to 2006. Fondly called the Bear or Grizzly, this
four-wheeler boasted a sportier look, an Ultramatic transmission, and an
improved suspension. These standout features made the quad a top choice
for trail riding and chores.
Execution is everything, and Yamaha did right in this aspect with the
Yamaha Grizzly 660. Along with its toughest competitors such as the
Ranger, Sportsman, and Rincon, the machine unfalteringly delivered the
ultimate riding adventure to both trail and aggressive riders. It may be
considered dated or puny by today’s standards, but when it came out, it
was an unrivaled 4×4. Continue reading, and relive the glory days of
the Grizzly.
The Mega ATV, Overhauled
The Yamaha Raptor 660, considered
The Ultimate Sport Quad
,
earned such a stellar reputation that Yamaha deemed it best to create
another model that derived its engine from this iconic vehicle. Hence,
the 2002 Yamaha Grizzly 660 was born. Unlike its predecessor, the
Grizzly did not have dual carburetors. But it did utilize a robust 44-mm
Keihin carburetor and five-valve cylinder head, independent
double-wishbone suspension, and hydraulic disc brakes – instantly making
it one of the go-to four-wheelers in its category.
Produced from 2001 to 2006 (for 2002 to 2007 models), this
rec-utility vehicle stayed in the market for six consecutive years. It
launched with a newly construed chassis, designed to address the biggest
shortcoming of its stablemate, the Raptor. Double-A-arm, independent
suspension on all fours with sway bars replaced the former front
MacPherson better struts and rear swingarm suspension. It also had a
push-button front differential lock and improved instrumentation.

Yamaha fed the Grizzly 660 so well that it remained among the quads
with top popularity and sales, despite the emergence of multi-cylinder
beasts from the competition. It was not until the advancing tide of
technology in 2007 that Yamaha had to update the Grizzly to include a
32-bit ECU for power steering, a 44-mm throttle body for fuel injection,
and a larger displacement of 700 cm3. Additionally, cost-effectiveness
and the aim for weight savings resulted in the Grizzly shifting to a
four-valve cylinder head and a redesigned frame and suspension and
losing its auxiliary mechanical pull-starter.
Yamaha Grizzly 660 Price
The original list price in 2002 for
the base model was $6,999 and $7,299 for the Hunter Edition. The base
model cost only increased to $7,199 on its last production year. There
were minimal increases for the Hunter Edition trims, $7,949 (2006
Outdoorsman Edition) and $7,699 (2006 Ducks Unlimited Edition). The 2006
Special Edition cost $7,599, which came with a sleeker finish and was
only $50 more than the 2007 Camouflage trim.
Kelley Blue Book values are between $2,275 and $4,000, with 2006
models holding the highest value due to the number of trims released
that year. Trade-in values are from $1,990 to $2,700 for units in good
condition and with typical mileage. Mods and additional accessories may
add to the vehicle’s worth. On the other hand, secondhand Grizzlies
range from $1,700 to $2,100 but tend to be scarce on trader and auction
sites. Some units open for bidding come with free shipping. Be wary of
quads selling for less than $1,500, as they may come with non-working
shafts, a weak battery, or deteriorated plastics.

About Yamaha
Yamaha Motor Company Limited, the world’s best in water vehicle
sales, is the maker of the Yamaha Grizzly 660. This Japanese firm
started as a piano and reed organ manufacturer in 1887. It was not until
after World War II that the company ventured into the production of
motorcycles. Eventually, it separated from its parent company in 1955 to
become Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd and built the ATV industry two and a half
decades later. Today, the product offerings of this industry leader span
from motorsports, off-road vehicles, personal watercraft, and speed
boats to outboard motors.
Conclusion – Yamaha Grizzly 660
The Yamaha Grizzly 660 can conveniently get lost in the superlatives
of its competitors such as the Prairie, Rincon, and Vinson. Despite
this, it is still a capable machine that has remained at the forefront
of the ATV scene. Maneuvering the vehicle boosts confidence and almost
feels like riding an extension of yourself.
The faint-hearted may find the Grizzly’s proclivity for unloading its
suspension mid-corner a tad nerve-wracking, especially when negotiating
a switchback. But its responsive engine, braking system, and CVT
transmission never fail. It has given many riders joyous moments and
challenging situations, and it will continue to do so for the years to
come.
