One thing we did notice about the Honda Rancher 420 is that the seat is very short in length compared to other ATV models. Don’t let the small seat fool you though, Honda has used thicker and softer foam in the seat that provides a plush ride and it is large enough that you can move side to side and front and back comfortably.
