Default a Honda First! Electric Power Steering for ATV!

i read this on the Honda website. not sure if it's been mentioned before.



"6.23.2006
Honda announces development of the world's first Electric Power Steering (EPS) system for ATVs
Torrance, Calif. June 23, 2006
American Honda announced today that Honda R&D Japan has developed the world’s first Electric Power Steering (EPS) system for All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs). This newly developed system monitors steering torque and vehicle speed to adjust the levels of steering assist and feel. When stopped or at low speeds, it requires light steering effort, and as speeds increase, the amount of assist is adjusted to provide the appropriate level of feedback. An ATV with this Honda exclusive technology is easier to maneuver through rough terrain, rocks, washes, and ruts while at the same time, reducing rider fatigue. Honda's first application of EPS on a production ATV is anticipated in the U.S. in the near future."


What do you-all think?
