2014 Honda ATV Line Arrives

While the middle of July hardly seems fitting to be talking about the new year, the ATV manufacturers are releasing their new model year line ups on a daily basis.

For 2014, Honda updated two of their most popular utility ATV models including the Honda Rancher 420 Utility ATV and Honda Foreman Utility ATV.

Both the 2014 Honda Rancher Utility ATV & 2014 Honda Foreman Utility ATV models were updated with an all-new frame design, suspension, and styling to improve their already impressive ride.

2014 Honda Rancher 420

Over the years, Honda’s liquid-cooled fuel-injected 420cc FourTrax Rancher series has built a wide-ranging, loyal and enthusiastic following, thanks in large part to the multiple configurations that are available to meet many varied rider needs.

For 2014, these FourTrax Rancher models feature an all-new chassis with a redesigned frame featuring new, longer-travel suspension for enhanced rider comfort plus outstanding performance over rugged terrain. That new chassis is wrapped in all-new bodywork with distinctively aggressive styling. The multiple choices in drivetrain styles remain; the 4WD FourTrax Rancher 4×4 ES features Honda’s highly regarded Electric Shift Program (ESP) that makes gear shifts as easy as pushing a button, while the 4WD FourTrax Rancher Automatic DCT features Honda’s Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT), a five-speed fully automatic transmission that also gives the rider the option of ESP mode.

The FourTrax Rancher 4×4 offers riders 4WD with a traditional manual-shift gearbox. The two-wheel-drive FourTrax Rancher available with manual or electric shift offers terrific performance, at an extremely affordable price point. Most of these models also offer the option of Electric Power Steering—all considered, it adds up to a wealth of wonderful choices for off-road work and play.

2014 Honda Foreman

For years, the Honda FourTrax Foreman Utility ATV series has carved out an impeccable reputation as hard-working partners that also know how to have fun when it’s time for a little recreation. Now that reputation grows stronger than ever as the next generation of FourTrax Foremans arrives for 2014 with an all-new chassis, suspension, locking front differential, styling and more. As before, the FourTrax Foreman 4×4 ES boasts Honda’s renowned Electric Shift Program (ESP) that delivers push-button convenience for shifting, while the manual-shift FourTrax Foreman 4×4 is the machine of choice for riders who prefer the more conventional gearbox.

Both models can be had with the option of Electric Power Steering as well. No matter which configuration you may favor, the FourTrax Foreman shines brighter than ever as the ideal machine to tackle a hard day’s work while also pulling double duty when you head out for that weekend adventure.
