Features

High power vision

Ready for whatever you’re doing, the 500’s triple headlight system uses a single 45-watt upper bulb and dual 30-watt lower bulbs with multi-reflector lenses for optimal light distribution, plus an LED brake light/taillight for improved visibility.

Switchable 2/4wd for go-anywhere traction

TraxLok® lets you easily select 2wd or 4wd. 2wd gives lighter steering on flat ground while 4wd maximizes traction when you need it.

Fuel injection

The PGM-FI fuel injection system – with 36mm throttle body – provides instant and crisp throttle response, consistent performance at altitude and hassle-free cold-weather starting.

Power Steering

Power Steering helps eliminate bump steer and lessons steering effort, particularly over rocks, logs and on sidehills.

Wide gear ratios

The working day can bring many challenges. Five forward gears, including an ultra-low first – plus reverse – mean you’ve got plenty of pulling power. true engine braking also helps maintain control.

Automatic DCT

Honda’s Automatic DCT transmission offers strong internals, fast shifts, excellent control, true compression braking capability in steep terrain and an automatic programme that upshifts ans downshifts while you concentrate on riding.

Disc brakes

The IRS model offers disc brakes all around for excellent performance.

Total efficiency for every job.

The engine is longitudinally-mounted. With the crankshaft in line with the frame you get direct driveshaft alignment to the wheels, improved drivetrain efficiency and a low centre of gravity. And it’s a major contributor to great stability, handling and balance, all features you expect from a Honda ATV.

Let's get a shift on

The massively strong steel swingarm allows 185mm rear wheel travel. Adjustable spring preload ensures well-controlled power delivery as well as increased comfort, precision and work capability.
