Your new favorite SxS
Powerful 999cc twin-cylinder engine
Experience unparalleled power with the liquid-cooled 999cc inline twin engine, boasting high horsepower, big torque, and unmatched refinement and reliability throughout the rpm range.
Automatic six-speed DCT
Our automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) boasts a class-leading gear-driven setup, giving you manual or automatic control. It has efficient power delivery, true engine braking, and superior performance to belt-driven CVTs.
i-4WD
All Talons showcase the second generation of our exclusive i-4WD system. Think “i” for “intelligent” because that’s exactly what it is. An industry-first brake-traction control system that maintains front-wheel traction even if one wheel wants to spin
Launch mode
These are the only side-by-sides offering an automatic gear-driven transmission and launch mode. You won’t believe how fast you’ll come off the line–and neither will the other riders.
High-octane fun
Independent front suspension
Dual A-arm suspension gives you 17.7 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.
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.
Long wheelbase
The 92.7-inch wheelbase contributes to this sport side-by-side’s tracking and also gives you a super-smooth ride. A bit longer than the Talon 1000XS’, it emphasizes high-speed tracking and gives excellent control in whoops and rough terrain.
