Title: Honda Pioneer Post by: Rooster79 on December 11, 2013, 09:02:51 am My new Honda Pioneer was delivered yesterday. So far I love it. Quiet idle, smooth ride, steering is fairly easy. I like the automatic transmission compared to the old Ranger belt trans. Shifts are smooth. My favorite is the dump bed that transforms into 2 extra seats. That will be very handy in hauling my youngins or guests around the ranch. My only complaint is lack of storage compared to the Ranger. It's not a hotrod but it has plenty of go for me. I got it to 40 pretty quick with another 300 lb man in the passenger seat. I will be using it for mainly ranch work and hunting. It seems like it will be perfect for me.

Title: Re: Honda Pioneer Post by: Rooster79 on December 11, 2013, 09:14:36 am Thanks, this is my first Honda atv but after seeing family and friends abuse them for years without failure, I know they are dependable. Hope this one holds up as well

Title: Re: Honda Pioneer Post by: t.wilbanks on December 11, 2013, 09:19:25 am I've been debating on getting one this next year...
My only concern is that it doesn't have a low gear.. My buddy just bought one so once he breaks it in I'll have to get him to hook up my hog trailer, load up a few fatties and see how it pulls up the hills.. ;D Let us know how yours does!!!

Yes it looks like the roll bar can be unbolted and removed. I think instead I will keep it on, put a chair in the bed and that bar would make a good gun rest to take some long range shots on coyotes Title: Re: Honda Pioneer Post by: Amokabs on December 11, 2013, 03:00:43 pm That transmission should be the wave of the future. Tired of crossing a deep creek and having the belt start slipping on my Gator
Title: Re: Honda Pioneer Post by: Shotgun wg on December 11, 2013, 05:44:40 pm U won't have any issues as far as power goes without having selectable low range. I have a big red. Same trans and engine u have. I have yet to find a situation I didn't have enough power and stall out. I have pulled trailers hauled loads of people and dogs in bad situations and worked mine hard. I would recommend adding a snorkel kit. Not so much for water but for dust. It will lengthen the life of ur air filter drastically. In turn increasing the life of the motor.
