There's not much that can stop a Viking. Ours is no different. Viking has cemented itself as a workhorse by providing comfortable 3-person seating, optional Electric Power Steering, and an engine with the performance and reliability you expect from Yamaha. Work features like steel dump box and 4 wheel disc brakes help to get the job done while offering versatility for recreational riding. For toughness and reliability with a side of exploring, go with a Viking.

Features may include:

Speed and torque sensitive EPS provides optimal assistance in 2WD, 4WD and locked differential for increased ride comfort and less fatigue.

Not only does Yamaha's CVT provide excellent starting acceleration, the belts are legendary for their bulletproof reliability. Nice to know when you're on the back 40 or exploring remote areas.

Large capacity air intake system improves high RPM range output. Bottom line? More top end power and easier servicing.

Large diameter, front and rear disc brakes with dual piston calipers ensure good balance and power during braking, with and without cargo loads. Comes equipped with mechanical parking disc brake.

Rock-solid 686cc, liquid-cooled 4-stroke, 4-valve, fuel-injected engine with broad power from extremely low speeds to high RPM. Thanks in part to combustion chamber shape, revised compression ratio, cam profile and forged piston, the Viking puts out broad, usable power you can rely on.

Driver-operated 'on-command' mode selection allows for differential shifting based on changing road and ground conditions. Simple, rotary type switch for smooth operation.

The backrest of the centre seat is tilted 5 degrees farther than the driver and outside passenger backrests, creating an off-set seating position that allows all on board to comfortably fit without rubbing shoulders. Supportive urethane cushioning is molded to fit the rider's waist for better comfort and safety. The result is the experience of being embedded in the Viking, not 'sitting on' like some competitor models.

Yamaha's engine braking system reduces the need for frequent breaking during challenging situations like tight turns and downhill inclines.

Not every ride happens during the day. Large diameter headlights provide excellent illumination.

All-new Maxxis Big Horn 2.0 tires have a comfortable and durable 2-ply front and 4-ply rating.

A partition splits the centre passenger's feet from interfering with the drivers to aid in safe operation and a secure riding position.

Smooth steel plate offers underside protection of vital components. Up-turned side pieces help to prevent Viking from getting stuck.
