Overview

Introducing the 2019 Honda FourTrax Recon, an ATV that flawlessly blends rugged performance with user-friendly handling, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned riders and newcomers alike. Priced at a competitive US$ 4,199, it stands out in the market as an affordable yet fiercely capable machine, engineered to tackle a variety of terrains. With its compact design, efficient powertrain, and Honda's renowned reliability, the FourTrax Recon appeals to adventurers seeking both leisure and utility in their outdoor pursuits. At the heart of the FourTrax Recon lies a robust 229cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, designed for dependable power delivery. The intelligent design of the carbureted fuel system, combined with a 5-speed automatic clutch transmission, allows for seamless shifts and an effortless riding experience. Riders will appreciate the air-cooled engine’s straightforward maintenance, as well as its impressive torque, which provides the confidence needed for a variety of tasks, from trail riding to hauling gear. The independent double-wishbone front suspension and swingarm rear suspension with a single shock provide a comfortable ride, soaking up bumps and providing 5.1 inches of front travel and 4.9 inches in the rear. With a ground clearance of 6 inches, the FourTrax Recon can navigate rocky paths and uneven terrain with ease. Honda has equipped the FourTrax Recon with a host of features designed for both comfort and convenience. The electric and kick-start options ensure that you’ll always be ready to ride, while the dual sealed hydraulic drum brakes provide reliable stopping power. The spacious 9.08-litre fuel tank allows for extended rides without frequent refueling, and the ergonomic seat height of 31.2 inches ensures that riders of various sizes can enjoy a comfortable riding position. Available in striking color options like Olive and Red, this ATV doesn’t just perform well; it looks great doing it. **

Pros

  • Powerful and Reliable Engine: The efficient 229cc engine offers great torque while remaining easy to maintain.
  • User-Friendly Handling: The automatic clutch and lightweight frame make it accessible for both novice and experienced riders.
  • Comfortable Suspension: The independent front and swingarm rear suspension provide a smooth ride over rough terrain, enhancing rider comfort.

Cons

  • Limited Advanced Technology: While dependable, the FourTrax Recon lacks some of the modern tech features found in higher-end models.
  • Drum Brakes: The expanding drum brakes, although effective, may not offer the same stopping power as disc brakes in more demanding conditions.
  • Weight: At 434 pounds, it may feel a bit heavy for some riders, especially in technical terrains where agility is key.
