it seems nowadays all the companies are coming out with a super big bore quad. I am almost certain both Yamaha and Honda are designing one. What would you hope to see in a new honda big bore 700-800cc? I think they should base it off the rubicon's name and call it a Rubicon 750. a v-twin with EFI (from CBR's) (please lots of torque and HP this time!!!), dual piston disc brakes, 580-600 lbs, front diff lock, 5 speed manual/auto, CVT no belt drive, with original honda reliability. this would definetely put the king quad and brute force out of business. what do you guys think?

 

That would deffinatley hold every quad down..

 

First of all I hope so! Second why not just put the Rubicon trans on the Rincon? It would solve the Rincons LowRange/Engine breaking problems! Add a locker and Honda could not make'm fast enough! Honda dependability and a fully capable machine, it makes me smile, and I like to smile[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Or Honda could just make a whole new design instead of basing every thing on the rincon??

 

I'm shopping currently, and I'm a big fan of Honda, but I rode a buddy's Rincon and thought it needed 40 more HP and a low range. It's a super quad, and great for trail riding, but I think with the above two changes it could better handle the occasional heavy work, plus attract power junkies...

If Honda built a powerful V-twin in a chassis similar to the Rincon, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I, for one, hope it comes with your choice of auto (like the Rincon, or Rubicon) or a 5 speed foot shift with auto clutch (and a low range).

I would think with a longitude mounted 90 degree V-twin (like the old CX500/650 or Silverwing) it could have perfect primary balance and still sit low in the frame.

I think there are a lot of us out there who would like Brute Force power in something that handles as well as a Rincon or King Quad, with Honda reliability. Honda, you listening?

 

why not just make a 750-800 v-twin manual clutch sport quad...

 

A Honda TRX 800EX fuel injected V-twin!! That would be SWEET!!
I think Polaris will be the first one to break that ground! They already have that exact engine on their Sportsman.
We'll have to wait and see!!

ubertrailblazer01,

An 800 v-twin sport quad with manual clutch?

Add 4x4, and a couple of racks, and they'd take my money.

 

or they could throw a cbr1000rr motor on a 450r frame and we'd all be happy

 

40 more hp? the thing dosent even have 40 now and u think it needs 40 more????? theres nothing on the market that has near that power aso keep dreaming
