2011 YAMAHA WOLVERINE 450 ($6399)

There is a cultish group of riders back East who go beyond normal 4x4 riding. They like to go fast on 4x4s, and for them, Yamaha has the Wolverine. This is a fully automatic 4WD quad that’s much lighter than other machines in that category. It has very aggressive suspension and a liquid-cooled, four-valve, 421cc motor.
