Weight bias

A slight rear weight bias works best for optimal sport driving. This is why we set up the Talons with 44% of their weight over the front and 56% over the rear.

Built for the bold

Unicam® cylinder head design

Unicam® cylinder head design

Using the same proven Unicam® cylinder head design found in our championship-winning CRF450R motocrosser helps make the engine more compact, allowing us to position it for optimal weight distribution and ground clearance.

High-capacity cooling system
Accessorized Model Shown

High-capacity cooling system

When it comes to challenging terrains like rock crawling, deserts, dunes, and high altitudes, your side-by-side's cooling can be put to the test. That's why we equipped all of our Talons with a high-capacity system.

4+ link rear suspension

4+ link rear suspension

Honda's 4+ link rear suspension provides superior handling by maintaining wheel geometry even with 20.1 inches of travel. This ensures that the rear wheels' toe changes only slightly throughout the entire stroke, improving chassis stability under extreme suspension deflection.

High-performance brakes

High-performance brakes

High-performance brakes come standard, featuring 250mm discs at all four corners, squeezed by 34mm twin-piston calipers up front and 34mm single-piston calipers out back. Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) optimizes front and rear braking power.

Longer wheelbase
Accessorized Model Shown

Longer wheelbase

The 90.0-inch wheelbase contributes to this sport side-by-side’s impressive stability and control. It's slightly longer than the Talon 1000X's and provides excellent high-speed tracking and a smooth ride on rough terrain.

Independent front suspension
Accessorized Model Shown

Independent front suspension

Dual A-arm suspension gives you 17.6 inches of front travel. Pair that with stellar ground clearance, and you understand why the SxS handles so well and is so comfortable in rough terrain.

<em>i</em>-4WD
Accessorized Model Shown

i-4WD

All Talons showcase the second generation of our exclusive i-4WD system. Think “i” for “intelligent” because that’s precisely what it is. An industry-first brake-traction control system that helps maintain front-wheel traction even if one wheel wants to spin.
