  • At long last, Honda has come to market with a pure Sport Side-by-Side vehicle - the Honda Talon.
    Honda built two different Talon models - the Talon 1000R and Talon 1000X. We had a chance get a little seat time in both of them. Here are our first impressions on the industry's newest Sport UTV.

    It's going to be interesting for sure. I'm looking forward to more people reviewing this car. I think Honda still has some ways to go, but for their first try at a sport SxS I think it's pretty solid. I just want to know if the trans is going to hold up to abuse, seems like its counter-part, the Pioneer 1000, some people had issues with clutch packs. I guess only time will tell.

    The 1000X in the whoops looks a lot like the original Maverick with 14-16 inches of travel. Dances around a bit just like the old Maverick.
    I like the amount of rear storage.
    But I didn't see much dash space for switches for lights, etc.
    The nets are a waste of money. They will be gone before the first ride.
    Hoping to see the same size wheels and tires front and rear, like Everyone in AZ is running. Disappointed with that.

      Again, look at the market and what sells the most.....it's not Terbah cars. They entered into the best selling category for a reason, SALES. Would you rather sell 500 Turbo cars at $30k or 5000 N/A cars at $20K? It's all about sales and money, if it werent....they wouldnt be in business. No attitude intended.

I know it’s honda but......the new snowblower honda made since 2015 are now fucking crap compare to before or compare to yamaha snowblower and thier new car engine 1.5l turbo made in 2016-2017-2018 have fuel dilution problems, that’s a BIG trouble and they dont wanna do nothing about that (for now). So reliability? Time will tell, not this old guy lol

      Forgive me, but I dont get it. Is it because they didnt drop a $25k 180hp TERBA out of the gate? They would be shooting themselves in the foot! Look at the market sales.....RZR S/XP/Ranger and Maverick/Defender cars in the 110hp or less category dominate sales for both companies (what I read/saw in the 2017 sales report). The Turbo cars are a niche and are gaining slowly, but I dont think they will overtake the N/A market anytime soon. MOST buyers in the Performance SxS game buy cars BELOW the 20k price range. Thats the best selling segment by far. For Honda to jump in with 2 cars in that category out of the gate is a VERY smart business move. Ride it out for a year, fix the gremlins, THEN drop the hammer. Would you rather sell 500 cars at 25k or 5000 cars at 15k?

    @JohnSmith-sh1zg 5 років тому

    Out of the box lol, wtf! This machine is nothing special. Honda waited till everyone else had their machines out and being ridden and had all this extra time to see what works and what doesn't. Sure it should be better right outta the box duh c'mon people. This isn't rocket science on how these things should be built. It's a numbers game of how many pennies can we pinch to get these machines on the road as cheap as possible with some dependability, but not to much dependability mind ya. We need some reoccurring revenue to think of of course. So don't run out and buy this thing thinking its better or worse than the competitions because it will only be nominally different with a different brand name attached to it I believe. All the machines would be fun to play around with but in the end all the same experiences out of their perspective boxes until you do your own heavy modding wherein these machines start separating themselves from other machines no matter what brand they wear. Just my opinion of course and who am I to rock the fanboys boat.

      We can only see. I feel like Honda does not listen to what people want. They use to have an awesome small engine line and vehicles. Today their small engine market is loss to Chinese copies that last longer and cost 60% less. Oh yeah and puts out more HP too. The Honda Accord went from a very reliable car to a car that can’t hold a transmission over 90,000 miles. I hope they wake up again. Don’t know what ceo fucked up a good company but hers a true meaning of good gone bad.
