The Yamaha
Rhino UTV features CV joint protectors
for long, trouble-free life
|
As you traverse some of the toughest terrain
this side of the Mississippi, you'll be reassured
that the Rhino is by far the strongest beast
in the woods. The 2008 Rhino 700 features larger
axles and CV joints to better handle the power
of the new engine. Larger 726mm CV joints and
21mm axles can be found up front while 72.6mm
CV joints are out back. New front and rear A-arm
guards prevent sticks and debris from getting
to the boots. But never fear, should something
find a way past those guards, the new CV boot
material is more resistant to impacts and tearing.

New parking
brake located on the center console
of the Rhino UTV for easier use

When it comes to braking duties, the automotive-style
brake pedal is at your service to control the
new four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes with dual
piston calipers, which provide unmatched stopping
power and an improved brake feel. Also updated
for 2008, the new brake pad material helps reduce
noise, perfect for hunters trying to get an
early start in the field. And, if you plan on
staying awhile, the redesigned parking brake
lever is located on the center console and easier
to use than ever.
The Rhino 700 has you covered in the area of
standard extras and creature comforts. The 12-volt
accessory outlet is appreciated by those looking
to plug in a GPS, spotlight or even a cell phone
charger. As always, the Rhino offers padded
bucket seats for both driver and passenger with
headrests. And the beloved digital meter is
standard on the Rhino 700 with some snazzy updates.
For 2008, the meter offers self diagnostic capabilities
for easy troubleshooting, a new voltage meter
for monitoring battery condition, and the new
hour meter function now runs only while the
engine is running for more accurate servicing.
The digital LCD multi-function display meter
also features a speedometer, odometer, dual
trip meter, clock, fuel gauge and gear position
display. Of course, with a 7.9 gallon fuel tank,
you and your partner will be most concerned
with enjoying the day-long ride.

The Yamaha
Rhino Side by Side now features two
cup holders for even greater creature
comfort
|
Other extras for 2008 include redesigned seat
and passenger grab handles and cup holders,
perfect for that piping hot cup of coffee on
a chilly winter morning. Also gracing the Rhino
family beginning in 2008 are tough, rotomolded
doors to keep mud, water and trail debris off
the driver and out with nature, where they belong.
Helping keep driver and passenger clean and
keeping cabin noise to a minimum is the new
noise and dust shield located behind the seats.
The new under-hood, tools-free air filter is
another new convenience and a snap to service
in its new location, while the increase in overall
filter size means that the filter will stay
clean longer.
A standard two-inch receiver means you can
put that low-end torque to good use while utilizing
the same hitch from your pick-up truck; the
cargo bed is capable of carrying 400 lbs, which
means you will be hauling and towing your fair
share of trophy game. The cargo bed features
tilt levers on both sides of the bed for the
added convenience of unloading your blind, game
and equipment.
The all-new 2008 Rhino 700 FI Automatic 4x4
will be available in Hunter Green, Red and Realtree(tm)
AP HD Camouflage at Yamaha dealerships nationwide
starting October 2007.
