Yamaha Kodiak 700 License Plate Bracket: Rear 4x7 Mount Guide
If you need a clean way to mount a license plate on a Yamaha Kodiak 700, a model-specific rear bracket can be a better solution than drilling plastic, using zip ties, or adapting a universal clamp-style mount.
Elite Engineering's Yamaha Grizzly 700 & Kodiak 700 License Plate Bracket is designed for compatible Kodiak 700 and Grizzly 700 ATVs and holds a standard 4x7-inch OHV or motorcycle-style plate.
Why the Kodiak 700 Benefits From a Dedicated Plate Mount
The rear of a utility ATV is already crowded with the rack, suspension, bodywork, bumper, and accessories. That can make it difficult to find a clean place for a plate without relying on a universal mount or attaching it to flexible plastic.
A dedicated rear-facing bracket gives the plate a rigid mounting surface and keeps the finished installation neat and close to the machine.
What the Elite Engineering Kodiak 700 Bracket Does
The bracket is made from black anodized aluminum and installs at the factory Yamaha mounting location using the ATV's existing bolts.
- Fits compatible Yamaha Kodiak 700 applications from 2016+
- Also fits compatible Yamaha Grizzly 700 applications from 2007+
- Designed for a standard 4x7-inch license plate
- Rear-facing mounting position
- Uses factory Yamaha mounting bolts
- No drilling required on compatible applications
- Two stainless-steel Allen pan-head plate bolts included
- Black anodized aluminum construction
How the Kodiak 700 License Plate Bracket Installs
The installation is straightforward and can normally be completed with basic hand tools.
- Compare your Kodiak's rear mounting area with the product photos.
- Remove the factory Yamaha bolts at the compatible mounting location.
- Position the bracket and reinstall the factory bolts.
- Attach your 4x7-inch plate using the included stainless-steel plate bolts.
- Check clearance around the rack, bumper, suspension, and any rear accessories.
No cutting or drilling is required on compatible applications.
Why Use a Model-Specific Bracket Instead of a Universal Mount?
Universal mounts are designed to fit many machines, which often means extra clamps, adapters, or improvised mounting locations. A bracket designed around compatible Yamaha mounting points can create a cleaner installation with fewer extra parts.
Check Rear Accessories Before Ordering
Aftermarket bumpers, storage boxes, racks, and other rear accessories can change the space available around the factory mounting location.
Before ordering, compare your Kodiak with the product photos. If your rear setup looks significantly different, contact Elite Engineering so the mounting area can be checked.
What Size License Plate Does It Hold?
The bracket is designed for a standard 4x7-inch motorcycle or OHV-style license plate. The plate mounting holes are threaded, allowing the included stainless-steel bolts to secure the plate directly to the bracket.
Does the Same Bracket Fit the Grizzly 700?
Yes. The same product is also listed for compatible Yamaha Grizzly 700 applications from 2007+. Because rear accessories and individual configurations can vary, compare the mounting area with the product photos before ordering.
