Honda FourTrax Foreman Rubicon ATV
Honda's first liquid-cooled four-stroke ATV engine is a single-cylinder 499cc overhead-valve design that provides tremendous torque and dependable power.
Hondamatic(tm) transmission is a continuously variable, hydro-mechanical design that eliminates belts altogether. It is compact, quiet, maintenance-free and very rugged. The Hondamatic features true engine braking, unlike conventional belt-drive designs.
Full-time four-wheel drive and a unique torque-sensing, front differential provide superior traction compared to conventional limited-slip designs, and reduces torque steer substantially for less steering effort.
Extensive weight-saving measures keep the FourTrax Foreman Rubicon's dry weight at 600 pounds.
