2024 Honda® Talon

2024 Honda® Talon

Look no further than the Honda Talon when you want a side-by-side that delivers on power, performance and durability. This Honda Talon 2 seater and its 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin engine offers the kind of powerful torque and quick-revving horsepower you’d expect from a flagship sport model.

Features may include:

• High-Performance Engine

The Talon boasts a 999 cc, quick revving, naturally-aspirated, parallel twin engine which builds off years of experience with the Pioneer 1000 and the Africa Twin. From the shared 999 cc base platform, the Talon’s engine has been updated, refined and tuned to provide increased performance while maintaining Honda engine durability; essentially purpose-built for the Talon 1000X.

• Ample ground clearance

Engineers have adopted the Unicam head design with its low-friction roller rocker arms from the CRF motocross bikes, and have tuned the exhaust to create a sound like no other – especially when it’s at full throttle.

• Premium Suspension

Independent front and rear suspension systems—double A-arm in the front, three-link trailing arm in the back—feature Fox Podium 2.0 QS3 (Quick Switch - 3 position) shocks with velocity-sensitive damping and remote reservoirs for superior control and heat dissipation during hard riding. Unlike many other adjustable suspensions, which require counting dozens of clicks on each damper, Talon X's premium FOX QS3 system (specially designed for the Talon 1000X chassis), is as simple as adjusting the dial to one of the three settings that cover a broad range of terrain. Comfortable cruising... General sport ... Aggressive. With 370/384 mm (14.6/15.1 in.) of front/rear suspension travel, and 323 mm (12.7 in.) of ground clearance, the suspension on the Talon 1000X works great everywhere especially on tighter trails.

• Easy Steering

Honda’s automotive-style Electric Power Steering lessens steering effort and helps eliminate bump steer, especially over rocks, logs and on sidehills. This speed and input force-sensing power steering system is tuned specifically for sport usage.

• Sport Seating

The Talon 1000X offers the comfort, safety and support of deep bucket seats. These large and roomy bucket seats are made of soft, thick foam that allows for comfortable all-day adventures. With their aggressive bolstering, the seats really keep the riders in place with the seat belts featuring an over the shoulder fit to confidently secure the driver and passenger while maintaining comfort. They also feature pass-throughs to allow for the use of a 4-point harness system.

• Perfect Position

The driver’s seat features a robust automotive grade adjuster, allowing the driver to be in the perfect driving position – The Honda Talon's interior design and ergonomics set it apart from the competition. It is specifically focused on providing both driver and passenger with the ultimate in confidence, comfort and convenience.
