I love the type of reviews you do. Not only did you review an issue but made a video about how you are trying to fix it and test it to see if it worked. I ride horses and atvs. New to atvs and the first thing i noticed was not being able to talk to the people you are riding quads or sxs with where as a horse is very peaceful. I also know how to train and maintain a horse much easier than taking apart any one of the components of a powersport machine.

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks Adam, glad you enjoy this type of content. I’ve been riding ATV’s for along time. My sisters use to have horses when I was a kid, rode a few times but haven’t been on one in probably 15 years or so.

[@derrickbilodeau1435]

Glad to see grease going back in that primary. Many on the forums and facebook groups push the greaseless setups. They just do not work well around here. I believe the grease acts as a seal keeping the dust out. Tried greaseless on a wolverine in the past and 50 miles into a ride in northern nh the clutch would get bound up due to packing full of dust.

[@rockspowersports]

I’ve always ran factory grease in all my Yamaha’s, Never tried greaseless. It’s tempting obviously just because of the mess during a service but sounds like it’s not a great idea with your experience.

Dude I bought my dream trike the other day! an 85 250SX.

[@rockspowersports]

That’s awesome! Always wanted a 250sx myself.

[@jasoncaron1464]

Where ya been?

[@yeahright302]

always enjoy your vids rock!!!

[@markbuck9299]

I have always been a Yamaha fan !! Would love to see a new grizzly 850 or even a 1000cc quad !!

[@rockspowersports]

Absolutely! I would have bought another Grizzly if they went bigger after I wanted to upgrade my Grizzly 700. Went with a sportsman 850 at the time though.

[@adrienfortin4411]

Love the content as always get a comment now and one when im done watching

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks man, appreciate it.

[@rizaptor7005]

Swap out the stock springs for a full kit from bandit and you'll be seriously impressed

[@rockspowersports]

I might do that in the future but for right now I’m pretty happy with it.

[@rizaptor7005]

@@rockspowersports look at the upper springs on all 4 shocks, I'd be willing to bet they're almost fully binding at rest. I was happy with mine also, but the transformation for the $ is more than worth it.

[@orincarlson1728]

Rotella t6 for the win

[@dondelche]

Great series. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@rockspowersports]

Glad you’re enjoying these.

[@bradarcher3863]

Great video really enjoy this content!

[@mikemiller9346]

Awesome video as always 👍

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks, appreciate that!

[@David-wk4nd]

Surprised you didn't service your secondary while in there? 1600 mile intervals per Yamaha.

[@rockspowersports]

I was in a hurry as we had a ride planned as soon as I got it Back together. It’ll be back apart soon enough.

[@jacoblongoria8367]

You gotta do all that to get to the belt? Kinda seems like a pain especially if you’re out on the trail! Regardless though love your content brother keep sending it!

[@rockspowersports]

Much harder to replace a drive belt than a Polaris/canam/Arctic cat. On the Yamaha you most likely won’t need to replace a belt as the wet clutch usually goes bad before the belt

[@jacoblongoria8367]

@@rockspowersports yeah I have a ‘21 ranger and it’s a breeze but I usually throw a new one on in the spring just for kicks when I do spring oil change and grease.

[@Kingsoupturbo]

Brute force! look forward to that and a test drive, always wanted to try a 750, rode a 650 and it was really great!

[@rockspowersports]

The 750’s are pretty impressive, especially after getting off the 650. The 650’s have great power for the size but.. the 750 is a noticeable difference.

[@adrienfortin4411]

Can't wait for the next video. Will see how loud it is after the insulation. You going to cut those things by the door? If you do film it. We went out riding other day got 6hours in was fun.

[@rockspowersports]

My wife likes them when she drives so unfortunately I’ll leave the door things on for now. And awesome, that’s a good days ride!

[@clydemccall8679]

I have thus utv. It is so hot 🔥! Almost unbearable in south Georgia heat here! Another this it's loud as hell! Like he said you have Hollar at each other. Sad bc they are literally beside you. Thanks for video

[@automotivesurgeon]

Could you imagine if they put that engine in the grizzly. That would be insane

[@tysonoovayuk8663]

I was just about to say the same thing that 1000cc is awesome

[@Williamxmr]

Best thing for cab noise is a good full face helmet

[@williammcclain676]

I bet it wouldn’t be near as loud inside if you didn’t have the front window up and that rear plastic on the back. All that engine noise bouncing off those. Just my two cents

[@timgile8144]

What atv/side by side isn't noisy??

[@chrisharriman9017]

My 2022 cf moto 800 ex was really loud In side . I went back to 2024 Kodiak and a Brute force

[@Threedogsinatrenchcoat]

I tested a canam 1k utv, couldnt believe it stayed at ~7k rpm at 30 mph. I would have a utv if it had an actual transmission like a yxz/talon

[@rockspowersports]

Yeah my can am maverick was loud as well. My Polaris rzr turbo was very quiet in the cab compared to these.

[@MegaWildweasel]

at that level you and you passengers should be wearing hearing protection. (take it from a guy wit tinnitus and wears hearing aids.)

[@rizaptor7005]

Huh?

[@jballtwo]

What about opening the back up ?

[@jasoncaron1464]

Where ya been buddy ?

[@rockspowersports]

Finally back!

[@98KingQuad]

The Polaris clutches are dry eh?

[@Mud_Dragon]

so i got one for u my dude. new youtuber here trying to get my bike running good so i can go make content. got a 01 grizzly. just did whole top end.piston oring's u name it i ordered and waited. it is doing the backfireing crap. vavles are 100 percent where they need to be. its timed perfect. no rips in boot's. tryed normal jets and also other jet's. still does it. i got it down to it does it when u let off the gas. so do i got to keep playing with the needle? i put a adjustable needle in it so i can do that. any idea's?

Hey rock i notice you using the rotella t6 , is that a diesel oil and should i use it in my 16 rzr 900s vs polaris oil . Is it that much better at $60-$72 a gallon

[@rockspowersports]

It’s completely up to you, I do like the fact that polaris oil has the 5w50 weight. But yes I use Rotella T6 5w40 in everything I own, it’s around $25-$30 a gallon depending where you get it.

[@classicxl]

@@rockspowersports Not here across the boarder it isn’t walmart and Canadian tire have it on sale for $60 a gallon. Regular price is $72 that’s why i asked is it worth it . My 16 rzr 900s has almost 7200 miles and want it to last a long time so if t6 is a lot better then polaris oil then i would use it

[@jackdewinter6837]

Alignment looks way out on that thing going straight

[@nathanwallace7234]

Is that rotella t6 oil in there?

[@classicxl]

yes it’s t6 diesel oil a lot of people run it in their gas cars,atvs,sxs you name

[@benschlack5814]

If you wear a helmet like you should it'll be a lot quieter😂

[@rscofield9381]

The general would’ve been a better choice.
