Those 27" tires don't even belong on a trail model anymore.

0:23 “That no one had seen before”. Uh, Yamaha YXZ1000R 2017 and updated to sport shift in 2018. Yep, it’s quite possible that Honda took a page out of Yamaha’s book.

I had a 2019 Talon 1000R. I even raced it in the northeast. With all the changes in the SXS world, even though I've been a lifetime Honda rider, I will definitely be making the switch to Can Am. I fit better in the Maverick R, more suspension, better handling, way more power, heavier duty drive train. For the price, the Maverick R isn't the cheapest compared to a Talon, but if you bought a Talon, sunk 20k into it, it STILL wouldn't drive, handle, and accelerate like a bone stock Can Am Maverick R.

I had a 21 X, i liked it but the gas pedal was very touchy

Why do you guys keep saying 27s in the front and 28s in the back? It has 28" tires front and back.

Great Information!

Make us a new sport quad…screw these old man SxS’s!

Facts and bring back the 2 strokes. We need a 2025 TRX250R

Have almost 60 days with my 24 model R. Love it so far!

Make the inside with more room for us taller guys. Leg jammed into the dash😢

Hope 2025 brings the needed updates. Then maybe I’ll buy.

Great video! The rocking back and forth while talking was a bit like being on a boat in rough waters though. Would be fine if it was the zoomed out scene but when the frame is tight its a little disorientating. LoL. Also, if they put 30's on the talon out of the gate you would notice how much that weight slows down a 1000cc naturally aspirated motor. Plus its more strain on the drivetrain. Honda plays it smart by keeping the smaller size and keeping reliability, fuel mileage, and the ability to turn down a warranty claim when someone bombs a transmission due to oversized tires.

I don’t remember the talon being one of the best sxs ever

I'm a honda fan . They make the best small engines ever ... but in the sxs world they are like a R/T dodge mini van ... basic and very under powered they will never have big sales or compete with polaris or can am still they add power . I mean come on a CF moto is faster

Agree the Honda is built well and is solid all around. But 100 hp is way way too little, that was introduced in 2014 and was the 'thing'. Now that is about 100 too few to make sense. Also the DCT is a dated design compared to the CanAm offering, drive both and you'll see the difference. I will say the Honda shifts nice, but wimpy overall.

Interesting!

Do you recognize the machine quieter than a cvt unit. My wife get migraines from the harmonics of a cvt unit

No lockers?

Does Honda have anything new coming out?

I don't think Honda ever took the side-by-side world "by storm". Honda does so well in so many other genres but in the UTV world, they are just "mehhhh". Oh and for those of us weekend warriors that think a real "transmission" is the ticket Vs a CVT, I don't want to hear the whining when it breaks! I'll take the CVT any day of the week, I have no issue repairing a simple gearbox.......I would go Polaris or Kawi over that car 100%

No factory turbo i'm not buying it. also they need to fix the rear end bucking so much

Honda needs to get with it. In Canada the Talon is worth over 30k!!! plus taxes!! There's so many better options for that kind of money, and they're all SIGNIFICANTLY better than what Honda is offering. I can have a 170HP XP Pro for that money, a 200HP X3 for that money... A HEAVILY modified XP 1000 for that. The last one would be my choice, and it's a MUCH better built machine. Honda is out to lunch with their pricing.

Honda will be worth a lot more money in 5 years then a Polaris for the other ones

Everyone is running 37s now come on lol Hondas are so far behind in every single way

Junk

I wish for a new trx450r That is efi and I wish for a new trx400ex that is efi for 2026

Bigger tires will increase the price! Not everyone wants or needs bigger tires. Dor those that do, buy them after the fact!

That’s not necessarily true

Very Nice High Quality Units!

It will be fixed as soon as they add much needed HP. While Can-Am and Polaris are pushing 225 HP and 245 HP Honda is still light years behind in power. 104 HP. What a joke. Stock tires should be 32” now days for a trail rig. If you want 27” tire than buy a recreational UTV not a sport trail rig.

who will be first....to make a sporty new full closed cabin with AC-heater, powerwindown with 200hp at the wheel with NO rubberbelt ?? kawasaki and honda ows this to all of us...
