Anything made by Honda is quality stuff made to last a long time and has top notch performance.

Amazing how his voice stays calm and steady the whole time. Just incredible

270 degree twin plus DCT is a match made in heaven. Love it! 👍

They feel like hovercraft the way they just rip through terrain. Up and over anything, the tires are absolute monsters.

[ModelGarage]

How's the infotainment? Trunk space? Sound system? XD

[MrCarGuy]

Definitely the best off-road vehicles.

This is what Honda should being doing to their cars, making them fun again!

[aspecreviews]

Honda should make a 1000R Sport Hybrid SH-AWD...

Literally sounds like a Honda. The sound reminds me of a B18c or even H22 from the 90s

The only thing about this that would make me consider getting this instead of my can am maverick sport is that 6 speed paddle shifters

[dgaming]

They definitely are not the best equipped in the SxS market but everything Honda does with Quality I could complain they don’t have diff locks, 32in tires, 3.0 Fox Podiums or the coolest steering wheel or best information screen, dual sheer brackets, or the fastest but it’s a Honda I can’t complain unless it lets me down

I love my 2021 Talon but the air intake/filter is problematic. The tires throw dirt and dust directly into the air intake where it’s trapped until it goes through the air filter.

Most people only get between 75 to 100 miles between filter changes. They cost around $50 a pop so it’s expensive and inconvenient.

Lots of people are adding new snorkels and/or pre-filters to extend the life of the air filter.

Not a smart design to an otherwise great machine.

Test and review for a few MONTHS? I am going to have to become a car reviewer too!

[bobsaget]

do you have to fully stop to switch it from 4x4 and 2wd?

[vvevvevvvv]

Doesn't this has an Africa twin power train?

[RM.r]

Please review the Mercedes AMG GTC Roadster

[francowolfmurd]

Step 1 after buying one of these is instantly go and buy harnesses
