Find used OEM parts for the Yamaha Wolverine 700 at Sun Coast Cycle Sports. Introduced in 2016, the Wolverine 700 (YXE700) revived the Wolverine name as a two-seat recreational side-by-side UTV. Powered by a 686cc liquid-cooled fuel-injected single-cylinder engine with Ultramatic CVT and On-Command selectable 2WD/4WD, the Wolverine 700 was designed for narrow trails and technical terrain where larger UTVs struggle. Available in base, R-Spec (upgraded shocks), and EPS configurations. The Wolverine 700 was eventually supplemented and largely replaced by the Wolverine X2 850 and RMAX 1000 in Yamaha's lineup. All parts are inspected by our technicians and ship from our Odessa, Florida facility with individual photos.
Wolverine 700 generation and parts compatibility
The Wolverine 700 was produced from 2016 with the 686cc fuel-injected engine shared across Yamaha's utility platform. During the 2016-2018 period, some Wolverine 700 models used the 708cc Subaru-built engine variant (similar to the Grizzly 700 of those years), while the Viking continued using the 686cc. From 2019+, the 686cc engine returned across the lineup. Confirm which engine displacement a specific Wolverine 700 carries before ordering engine-specific parts.
The Wolverine 700 shares its engine family with the Grizzly 700 ATV, Kodiak 700 ATV, and Viking 700 UTV. Some engine-adjacent components may cross between these platforms. The Wolverine 700's chassis is unique to the Wolverine and does not share frame, suspension, or bodywork with the Viking (three-seat, work-oriented) or Rhino (discontinued). The Wolverine 700 also does not share parts with the older Wolverine 350/450 ATVs (completely different platforms) or the newer Wolverine X2 850 and RMAX 1000 (different engines and chassis).
Common Wolverine 700 failure points and replacement parts
CVT belt wear: The Ultramatic CVT belt handles the demands of recreational trail riding. Aggressive riding in technical terrain can stress the belt harder than utility use. Regular inspection is essential.
708cc engine oil consumption (2016-2018, if equipped): Wolverine 700 models from 2016-2018 that received the 708cc Subaru-built engine may experience the same oil consumption issues documented on the Grizzly 700 of those years. Check oil levels regularly and monitor consumption.
Suspension component wear: The independent suspension uses bushings, ball joints, and wheel bearings that wear under trail use. The R-Spec models have upgraded shocks that can develop seal leaks after extended hard riding.
Door and cab rattle: The Wolverine 700's doors, roof (if equipped), and cab components can develop rattles over time from off-road vibration. Tightening hardware and adding weatherstripping at contact points addresses most noise complaints.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Is the Wolverine 700 the same as the Wolverine 350 or 450 ATV?
No. The Wolverine 700 (2016+) is a two-seat side-by-side UTV with a 686cc fuel-injected engine. The Wolverine 350 (1995-2009) and Wolverine 450 (2006-2010) were single-rider ATVs with smaller engines. They share only the Wolverine name and no mechanical components.
Q: Does the Wolverine 700 share parts with the Viking 700?
Both the Wolverine 700 and Viking 700 use versions of the 686cc engine family, and some engine components may cross. However, the two UTVs have different chassis (the Viking is wider with three seats), different suspension, and different bodywork. Frame, cab, and body parts are not interchangeable.
Q: What is the difference between the Wolverine 700 and Wolverine X2 850?
The Wolverine X2 850 uses a larger 847cc parallel-twin engine compared to the Wolverine 700's single-cylinder. The X2 850 has more power, a wider chassis, and updated electronics. They are different platforms, and engine, frame, and most components do not interchange between the two.
