Segment: ATV/Quad
Production years: 2008, 2009
The 2008 Yamaha Big Bear 400 just gets better and better with the addition of the IRS package: with independent rear suspension, this ATV is now able to copy the terrain roughness even better than before, maximizing traction and carry rider and gear further into the wilderness. A semi-automatic transmission with a 5-speed gearbox and automatic clutch, makes things easy and fun, even for the less experienced rider.
With a differential with 3 on-command locking positions, the 2008 Yamaha Big Bear 400 IRS has better grip on slippery terrain and steep slopes, alike. This ATV retains the serious racking capacity of the bigger beasts and can tow heavy loads, thus being a dependable partner in completing the toughest tasks and being a fun machine for weekend trail fun, camping or even longer off-road explorations.
