I am thinking about buying a friends RMAX4 that he just put portals on. I dont like the added height and width so i may take them off. Is there a secondary market for them or does everyone think they are as dumb as I do?

Also, it says 1000 on it but it doesn’t say RMAX anywhere i can find. Did they make a 1000 cc that was not a RMAX? My research tells me it has to be a RMAX if it is a 1000.

They have their place, either mud or rock crawling. The rmax is way too short for rock crawling though, much less with portals. Too bad they didn't make the wheelbase like 100" on the 4 seat.

I dont like the long 4 seaters for use in my region. They belly out and wont turn tight enough to get around trees.


The portals will sell to some redneck, take them off and post the on FB, CL ect.

Pictures?

This thing have a Vin and a title?
Ill grab a pic. It does have a vin and title. The dealer told him its a RMAX when he ordered parts

Ya, i had one. Most are around 117" wb and the x3 and pro r are 135":barf:

Rmax is 90" iirc. I think something in the middle would be good. The recent sxs blog video with the general, sport and rmax makes the rmax look scetchy at speed with people in the back.

Call the dealer with the Vin to verify what it is?
I went online and checked it is a

2020 Yamaha Wolverine X4 YXF850​



I told my friend and he said that explains why some parts didn’t fit right.

I am not sure I want it now.
I waited until they released the Wolverine 4 seater and got to test drive it, I was disappointed. So I went and bought a new Teryx4 because it was thousands of dollars cheaper for basically the same buggy. After owning the T4 for a few months I upgraded shocks, wheels, a-arms, this was my plan from the beginning. I don't blame you if you don't buy it, unless it is a smokin deal.
