YOUR ULTIMATE THRILL RIDE.
YOUR ULTIMATE THRILL RIDE.
Maybe you've seen one on your favorite trails. Maybe you've just read the stellar reviews. Or maybe you've been lucky enough to drive one for yourself. The Honda Talon 1000X is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to do it all. Every Talon in our lineup--the newest four-seaters and our two-seat Talon 1000X and the Talon 1000R--all share the same powerful, high-output engine, Automatic DCT Transmission, and I-4WD technology. And they all offer the combination of performance and rider comfort you expect from a Honda. The differences between our two-seat models? The Talon 1000X is a little narrower and a little shorter (64 inches wide and an 87.6-inch wheelbase). It also uses a three-link rear suspension, which makes it a natural for owners who prioritize maneuverability and quick handling. Since nobody knows better than you where you like to ride, why not check them out then make your pick. Either way, you really can't go wrong when you choose a Honda Talon.
CHASSIS
• CHASSIS AND SUSPENSION: The Talon 1000X's refined, high-performance chassis forms the basis for its superior handling and stability. From there we add long-travel independent front and rear suspension and generous ground clearance. Plus, the Talon 1000X gets premium, FOX Podium 2.0 shocks with QS3 quick adjustors on all four corners.
• LONG-TRAVEL SUSPENSION: The Talon 1000X features Honda's three-link rear suspension, with a whopping 15.1 inches of rear-wheel travel for a smooth ride and superior control.
• HIGH-PERFORMANCE DISC BRAKES: A high-performance side-by-side needs high-performance brakes. The Talon 1000X's power, chassis and suspension travel helps take these side-by-sides to the next level.
DESIGN
• DRIVER / PASSENGER PROTECTION: The Talon 1000X's Occupant Protection Structure uses large-diameter tubing, and meets ROHVA's rollover protection standard. The standard-equipment hard doors and quick-clip side nets help keep debris from entering the cabin. Auto-style three-point seatbelts are equipped with an emergency locking retractor mechanism, to help optimize passenger security. (The Talon 1000X's seats are also four-point compatible for competition use.)
• ADJUSTABLE DRIVER'S SEAT: Honda has a ton of data and experience on seats, thanks to our auto division. And while just about every sport side-by-side has an adjustable driver's seat, only the Talon gets it this right.
• PAINTED BODY: Why paint and not color-molded plastic? Because the Talon 1000X's painted body parts resist scratching better, and we know that where you're going to be driving this side-by-side, you won't want to slow down for a little brush by the side of the trail.
DRIVETRAIN
• I-4WD: The Honda Talon 1000X showcases the second generation of our exclusive I-4WD system, specifically tuned to respond quicker and capable of delivering even more drive force. Think "I" for "Intelligent," because that's exactly what it is.
• AUTOMATIC SIX-SPEED DCT TRANSMISSION: The convenience of an automatic with the strength, control, and efficiency of a manual, Honda's DCT lets you drive the way you want. Choose between manual mode or fully automatic. Plus, the addition of Sport Mode increases the fun, shifting at higher RPMs for a spirited, full-performance driving experience.
• RELENTLESS DURABILITY: When it comes to strength and toughness, the Talon 1000X leads the way.
ENGINE
• POWERFUL 999CC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE: Sport side-by-sides need power, and you're sure to find the Talon 1000X offers plenty of it. The Talon 1000X's 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin delivers the kind of powerful torque and quick-revving horsepower you'd expect from a flagship sport model, but is equally responsive in lower revs and in the critical midrange too.
• UNICAM CYLINDER HEAD DESIGN: The Talon 1000X's 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin uses the same proven Unicam® cylinder head design found in our championship-winning CRF450R motocrosser.
• ROLLER ROCKER ARMS: Roller-tip rocker arms in the Talon 1000X's valve train help reduce engine friction, facilitate higher, faster revs, and contribute to more efficient engine operation and power.
