Powerful Yamaha 847cc Engine

At the heart of the 2024 Wolverine X2 850 R-Spec is Yamaha’s proven 847cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine. Its DOHC design and electronic fuel injection provide strong, predictable performance throughout the powerband.

The engine is tuned to provide useful low-end torque for technical trails while delivering responsive acceleration when the trail opens up. Whether you’re climbing hills, navigating rocky terrain, or hauling gear around your property, the Wolverine X2 provides dependable power.

Advanced Ultramatic® Transmission

Yamaha’s Ultramatic® continuously variable transmission (CVT) is designed for smooth operation and long-term durability. The system includes a mechanical engine-braking function that helps provide additional control when descending steep terrain.

Drive positions include:

• High
• Low
• Neutral
• Reverse
• Park

The automatic transmission allows you to focus on the trail instead of constantly shifting gears.

On-Command® 4WD

The Wolverine X2 850 R-Spec gives riders the ability to quickly adapt to changing terrain with Yamaha’s On-Command® selectable 4WD system.

Choose between:

2WD: Ideal for normal trail conditions and easier steering.

4WD: Provides additional traction on loose or uneven surfaces.

4WD with Differential Lock: Helps maximize traction when navigating particularly challenging terrain.

This versatile system makes the Wolverine X2 suitable for mud, sand, snow, rocks, hills, and forest trails.

R-Spec Suspension & Trail Handling

The Wolverine X2 850 R-Spec is designed around a compact chassis with a performance-oriented suspension system. Independent suspension at both ends helps maintain stability and comfort when riding across uneven terrain.

Suspension highlights include:

• Independent front suspension
• Independent rear suspension
• Long suspension travel
• High ground clearance
• Adjustable shocks
• Durable suspension components

The result is responsive handling and controlled performance when navigating technical trails.

Compact Two-Seat Design

The Wolverine X2 is designed for two occupants, giving it a compact footprint that is particularly useful on narrow and winding trails.

The cabin provides:

• Comfortable driver and passenger seating
• Ergonomic controls
• Protective doors
• Passenger handholds
• Convenient storage
• Excellent visibility
• Easy ingress and egress

Its compact dimensions make the X2 especially useful for exploring wooded trails where larger side-by-sides may be difficult to maneuver.

It’s well suited for:

• Hunting
• Camping
• Trail maintenance
• Property exploration
• Farm and ranch use

• Backcountry adventures

Front and rear cargo areas provide convenient space for carrying essential gear and supplies.
