2008 New Honda TRX700XX

Honda has once again upped the ante for those who want a big, lean and powerful machine with the all-new 2008 TRX 700XX– featuring the most powerful ATV engine Honda has ever built.

With a 686cc SOHC liquid-cooled motor, this is the machine to conquer the dunes and terrain. The five-speed manual transmission is standard; also new for the 700XX is a reverse gear that is fairly easy to engage.

The 700XX is the only sport quad in its class to have a double wishbone suspension with a set of piggyback shocks capable of 10.6 inches of travel.  Not to mention the dual front shocks have up to 9.3 inches of travel for the days of whoops, rocks, ruts and what ever else can be thrown at this beast.

With all the power and torque in this ATV one may wonder: how’s the brake handle? Two large dual hydraulic discs in the front and one in the rear make this ATV great for braking and sliding around burms and ruts, and maneuvering away from rocks with ease.

With all this power and technology the 700XX is a massive 508 pounds (with all standard equipment, full tank of fuel at 3 gallons and all other needed fluids).

Although Honda is adding new color options, one traditional is still intact: Red – Metallic Black/Silver or Metallic Black/Red.
