DOUBLE THE FUN. IN THE ALL-NEW 4 SEAT TALONS.
DOUBLE THE FUN. IN THE ALL-NEW 4 SEAT TALONS.
If the whole point of a side-by-side is sharing the fun, then the new Honda Talon 1000X-4 FOX Live Valve just doubled down on the best sport side-by-sides out there. It's a genius idea: Take our two-seat Talon 1000X, stretch it out so you can carry two more passengers, and it's time to party. But here's the biggest difference--this four-seat SxS is done the Honda way, so those extra passengers get stadium seating and plush accommodations, while Talon 1000X-4 FOX Live Valve owners get even more features, like Honda's new launch mode and refined FOX Live Valve suspension.
CHASSIS
• FOX LIVE VALVE SUSPENSION: The Talon 1000X-4 FOX Live Valve features FOX Live Valve suspension with 2.5-inch shocks on all four wheels.
• CHASSIS AND SUSPENSION: The Talons feature a special, long-wheelbase and high-performance chassis that forms the basis for its superior handling and stability. From there we add long-travel independent front and rear suspension and generous ground clearance. The Talon 1000X-4 FOX Live Valve showcases our new FOX Live Valve suspension with 2.5 shocks front and rear.
• 3-LINK REAR SUSPENSION: On the Talons, Honda's 3-link trailing-arm rear suspension is one of the secrets to their superior handling. Both feature 15 inches of rear-wheel travel for a smooth ride and superior control.
DESIGN
• STADIUM SEATING: The Talons feature stadium seating for the rear passengers: compared to the front seats their seats are set almost three inches higher and two inches closer to each other, which gives those passengers a much better field of view.
• DRIVER / PASSENGER PROTECTION: The Talon'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.
• PAINTED BODY: Why paint and not color-molded plastic? Because the Talon'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. Plus, they just look better--the first time you see a new Talon in person, we're sure you'll agree.
DRIVETRAIN
• 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.
• I-4WD: The Talons showcase 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. An industry-first brake-traction control system for side-by-sides, it simplifies operation, increases drivability and optimizes traction.
• LAUNCH MODE: Nobody wants to get beat off the line, and with a Talon 1000X-4 FOX Live Valve you'll be the one doing the laughing. It's the only side-by-side with both an automatic transmission and a launch mode.
ENGINE
• POWERFUL 999CC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE: Sport side-by-sides need power, and you're sure to find the new Talon 1000X-4's offer plenty of it. The Talon'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's 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin uses the same proven Unicam® cylinder head design found in our championship-winning CRF450R motocrosser. That helps make the engine more compact, which lets us position it for optimal weight distribution and ground clearance.
• ROLLER ROCKER ARMS: Roller-tip rocker arms in the Talon's valve train help reduce engine friction, facilitate higher, faster revs, and contribute to more efficient engine operation and power. They're another example of Honda refinement you may not see, but that you'll feel with every ride.
