It\u2019s a job where downtime is not an option, and for Murray, nothing has provenmore reliable than his two Yamaha ATVs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey&#8217;ve embarrassed my newer competitive ATVs several times over the last few years,\u201d Murray states. \u201cMy new bike refused to start last weekend, and I just jumped on one of the old Yamahas, and it started first time, and away we went.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Murray\u2019s trust in the brand runs deep, rooted in his first-ever quad, a Yamaha Breeze he had as a boy. This long-standing loyalty led him to purchase his first Big Bear when he started his business over ten years ago. Impressed with its performance, he was so determined to find another that he drove seven hours to secure an \u201cimmaculate barn find\u201d in rural England, just to have a second one.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for his dedication is simple: their bulletproof reliability. \u201cThey&#8217;ve had a battery each in the entire time I&#8217;ve had them,\u201d Murray states. &#8220;Our work is quite heavy\u2026 but they\u2019ve wanted absolutely nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While these machines may be older, Murray highlights the powerful engineering that makes them so capable. He praises their torque and constant four-wheel drive, stating, &#8220;They just pull like trains.&#8221; For him, the mechanical transmission and engine braking are crucial for safely handling steep descents with a heavy load, a feature he feels is superior.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, Murray\u2019s Big Bears are more than just old machines; they are a testament to Yamaha\u2019s enduring quality. They are lighter and easier to transport than many modern ATVs, yet they deliver all the power and capability required for his demanding business. They are a shining example of how Yamaha\u2019s commitment to building durable, reliable machines has a long and storied history, a legacy that continues to be proven, year after year, job after job.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"20426\" src=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-768x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-600x800.webp 600w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-1536x2048.webp 1536w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1-1300x1733.webp 1300w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1.webp 1900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"20425\" src=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4-1300x867.webp 1300w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-4.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"20423\" src=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6-1300x731.webp 1300w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-6.webp 1900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"20422\" src=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5-768x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5-600x800.webp 600w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5-1300x1733.webp 1300w, https:\/\/offroads-nation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/webp-1900-5.webp 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q ed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo.
