Honda Talon 1000R Fox Live Valve

You can’t go wrong with any model in Honda’s Talon 1000 lineup, but 1000R Fox Live Valve is our weapon of choice from Big Red. These sporty side-by-side UTVs come in both two- and four-seat versions, and they all share the same high-output 999cc engine and snappy dual-clutch automatic transmission. Talon also gets Honda’s exclusive i-4WD tech, an intelligent system that offers brake traction control, hill-start assist, and electronic brake force distribution, all of which translates to better grip on challenging surfaces without using a locking front diff. As the name suggests, the Live Valve version also gets Fox’s automatically adjusting suspension; Honda’s riotous “launch mode” function; as well as a generous helping of standard factory accessories including lower door panels, a full-length roof, and window screens for front and rear seats.
