Torrance, CA (5/14/2013) -The
exciting 2014 model year continues as American
Honda introduces four brand-new models that clearly
demonstrate the incredibly wide reach of Honda
engineering; this is the kind of innovation Honda

In addition to these all-new models, this announcement
also includes a number of successful and favorite
returning models.
“This is really a fun time for Honda fans, as we unveil these four incredibly cool all-new machines for 2014 that reach out to entirely different segments of the market,” said Powersports Press Manager Bill Savino. “This introduction serves as a perfect example of what 2014 is going to be like for Honda, as we continue to bring diverse and completely new concepts to riders, no matter what kind of machines they might favor.
“Earlier this year we introduced the first of our new side-by-side Pioneer line, the 700-4, and now we’re announcing our second model to the Pioneer line: the tough and hard-working Pioneer 700 side-by-side that’s fully featured and will be priced competitively.
