Honda paddle-shifts over dirt with 2016 Pioneer 1000 UTV - Gizmag
The 1000's engine is cooled by way of an air intake mounted high and under the hood. The Pioneer 1000 makes tracks with a set of 27-in tires beaded to 12-in steel wheels. With help from 10. 5-in front and 10-in rear independent double-wishbone suspension, the side-by-side sits a foot (30. 5 cm) over top the ground, offering plenty of air between chassis and rocks, roots and other trail hazards. It has 1,000-lb (454-kg) payload and 2,000-lb (907-kg) towing capacities. Honda will sell two different Pioneer 1000 sizes, each in two trim levels, starting in the Northern Hemisphere fall of 2015. The base 1000 has room for three people, and the 1000 EPS adds namesake electronic power steering, paddle shifting,... The 1000-5 seats five people by way of the three-seat front bench and two QuickFlip rear seats, which fold flat when not in use. The 1000-5 Deluxe adds 14-in aluminum wheels, radial tires, LED headlights, and color-matched body panels. Realizing he was better off making cynical comments from afar than actually getting involved in all that mess, he turned away from matters of government and news to cover the things that really matter: outdoor recreation, cool cars, technology,... Honda finally gets into the game Yamaha started back in 2004 with the Rhino. Source: www.gizmag.com
