I don't recall if it was on a 54 or 56, but by fiddling with the throttle rod linkage I was able to correct most of the "groan"

BTW...did you know that Yamaha now has the Ultramatic trademark?

"Not only will the Rhino get you almost anywhere, it'll get you there with an amazingly high level of comfort and ease, thanks to its powerful engine, Ultramatic transmission and long-travel four-wheel independent suspension. No other side by side vehicle delivers a charge like this: you get unsurpassed power, handling, great ride comfort and convenience."
