Introducing the 2022 Honda FourTrax Recon, a compact yet formidable ATV that strikes an exceptional balance between ruggedness and versatility. Priced at an MSRP of $4,499, the FourTrax Recon is designed for riders who seek a reliable companion for both work and play. Whether you're traversing rocky trails, hauling gear, or simply exploring the great outdoors, this ATV stands out in the competitive market with its combination of Honda’s renowned engineering and user-friendly design. At the heart of the FourTrax Recon is a 229cc longitudinally mounted engine that delivers a smooth and responsive performance. The 5-speed automatic transmission, paired with a shaft drive system, ensures effortless acceleration and a seamless riding experience, making it ideal for both seasoned riders and newcomers. With an air-cooled carburetor system, the Recon thrives in various conditions, offering dependable power while maintaining a lightweight payload of just 437 pounds. Combined with a ground clearance of 6 inches and a comfortable seat height of 31.2 inches, this ATV provides a stable and confident ride over diverse terrains. The FourTrax Recon is equipped with features that emphasize its practicality and ease of use. Its independent double-wishbone front suspension, alongside a swingarm with a single shock at the rear, provides a generous travel of 5.1 inches in the front and 4.9 inches in the rear, ensuring a smooth ride even on bumpy trails. Safety is paramount, and the expanding drum brakes, both front and rear, offer reliable stopping power. With electric and kick-start options, the Recon makes sure you're ready to ride at a moment's notice. Plus, with color options like vibrant Zest Orange, classic Red, and rugged Moose Brown, you can choose a look that suits your style. **

Pros

  • User-Friendly Design: The automatic clutch and 5-speed transmission make it accessible for riders of all skill levels.
  • Robust Build Quality: Honda's reputation for durability shines through, ensuring reliable performance for work or recreation.
  • Versatile Features: With electric and kick-start options and an ample fuel capacity of 2.4 gallons, it’s ready for long adventures.

Cons

  • Limited Power Output: While suitable for most tasks, some may find the 229cc engine underpowered for heavy-duty hauling or steep inclines.
  • Drum Brakes: The drum brake system, while dependable, may not offer the same level of stopping power as modern disc brake systems, particularly in demanding conditions.
  • Weight: At 437 pounds, it may feel somewhat heavy for novice riders or those looking for a lightweight option for more aggressive trail riding.
