You could say that the FourTrax® Rincon®
outclasses all competitors—if there were
any competitive models that could come close
to matching all that the Rincon has to offer!
The muscle-bound 675cc liquid-cooled, fuel-injected
engine churns out an abundance of power that
gets to the ground smoothly and efficiently
via Honda’s unique automotive-style automatic
ATV transmission, which is quipped with a hydraulic
torque converter to drive three forward gears
plus reverse. The Rincon chassis is equally
high-tech and impressive; there’s a fully
independent rear suspension, lightweight tough
forged aluminum suspension components to provide
comfortable cruising over rugged terrain, and
disc brakes front and rear. All in all, the
Rincon is the complete package, one that utilizes
Honda technology to bring the full joy of riding
to off-road adventure.
Available in Red, Olive and Natural Gear Camouflage.
