2016 Yamaha Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition

2016 Yamaha Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition

With added passenger luxuries, the new Ranch Edition Viking VI raises the bar for comfort and convenience in an already quieter, smoother riding and supremely off-road capable machine.

• Room for Six

This 6-occupant machine achieves driver and passenger comfort with a class leading 115.6" wheelbase that smooths the ride and allows for best-in-class interior space. Both front and rear center seats are offset, as are the middle headrests, allowing for unmatched middle passenger comfort and convenience. All passengers have a 3-point seatbelt for riding comfort. Front and rear passengers also have the convenience of an integrated handhold with hand-cushions that enhance comfort.

• Torquey 700-Class Engine

The Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition is ready to conquer whatever comes its way with a powerful 686cc, liquid-cooled, fuel injected, SOHC power plant. This engine produces strong low-end acceleration and pulls hard through the rpm range to deliver excellent power for getting the job done or when hitting the trails.

• High Volume Intake

The Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition features a large-capacity air intake system that improves overall engine performance. The air cleaner box is easily accessible from inside the cabin for improved serviceability.

• Responsive and Reliable Ultramatic® Transmission

Ultramatic® transmission with dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive and reverse is the most advanced drive system available. An automatic centrifugal clutch maintains constant belt tension for reduced belt wear and the system features a sprag clutch for all-wheel downhill engine braking in 4WD mode and reverse.

• On-Command® 4WD

Industry-exclusive three-position On-Command® 4WD system lets you quickly dial between 2WD, limited-slip 4WD and fully locked differential 4WD.

• Roomy Cabin and Cargo Capacity

The chassis design includes a convenient pass-through floor for greater ease of on-board movement, making it possible to enter and exit the vehicle from either side. The rear cargo bed is made of steel and is designed for a hefty load capacity of 600 pounds.

• Ranch Edition Features

The Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition features high-quality Copper Metallic painted bodywork with a matched brown interior, silver aluminum wheels, a soft sun top, rear view center mirror, mud flaps, overfenders, underseat storage, a bed grab bar and an aggressive front brush guard – all topped off with unique Ranch Edition badging.

• Quieter, Smoother Cabin

New rubber damper plates, a more rigid chassis, additional sound damping material and an all-new cylinder head mount reduce vibration and quiet the cabin for a more relaxing ride quality at all engine speeds.

• More Ridged Cargo Box with Integrated Accessory Mounts

New stiffer cargo box further reduces noise and vibration inside the cabin, while the cargo bed rails now incorporate mounting points to make adding genuine Yamaha accessories that much easier. A rubber cargo bed mat is included to further reduce noise and vibration while improving durability.

• Improved Convenience

New automotive-style two-stage door latches are fitted, and inside the cabin, a new parking brake warning buzzer warns the driver if the vehicle is driven while the brake is engaged.
