Overview

Introducing the 2023 Honda FourTrax Recon, a rugged and versatile ATV that stands out in the competitive landscape of all-terrain vehicles. Known for its reliability and dependability, the FourTrax Recon is designed for both novice riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike. With a price tag of US$ 4699, this model offers a fantastic entry point into the world of off-roading, appealing to those looking for an ATV that combines performance, comfort, and practicality in a compact package. At the heart of the FourTrax Recon is its spirited 229cc engine, featuring a longitudinally mounted design that enhances weight distribution and stability. The air-cooled engine boasts a compression ratio of 9.2:1, delivering a solid balance of power and efficiency for tackling a variety of terrains. The 5-speed semi-automatic gearbox, complete with a reverse function, allows for seamless shifting and ease of control, whether you're navigating tight trails or open fields. The independent double-wishbone front suspension and a swingarm with a single shock at the rear provide 130mm and 124mm of travel, respectively, ensuring that bumps and ruts are absorbed effectively, offering a comfortable ride no matter the conditions. The FourTrax Recon is packed with features that make it a standout choice for adventurers. An electric starter and a kick-start backup offer peace of mind, while the 9.08-litre fuel tank provides ample range for extended outings. Riders can choose from a striking palette of colors—Red, Black Forest Green, and Reactor Blue—allowing for some personal flair. With a generous ground clearance of 152 mm and a manageable seat height of 792 mm, this ATV is designed to accommodate a wide range of riders. Plus, with Honda's one-year transferable warranty, owners can ride with confidence knowing they’re backed by a trusted name in the industry. **
