  • I Bought the 2024 Honda Rubicon 520!! I decided to come back to my roots and get back on a Honda, and man it's good to be back on one! When I saw this year's deluxe model color scheme on the Honda Rubicon I immediately knew I had to have it and I hope you guys love this new machine as much as I do! I can't wait to build this machine and start sending it. Thanks for watching and as always be sure to like, comment, share, and subscribe!

    Bought my Honda Rubicon DCT ES/EPS Deluxe TRX520FA7 last week in Matte Navy Blue. I'm loving the machine so far, went to an ATV park for the first time over the weekend and road with two guys I met while there. Once with a Renegade 570, and an Outlander 850 both modified. The guys were impressed with it as it was able to keep up with them, only needing help twice.
