2025 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. The Talon boasts a 999 cc, quick revving, naturally-aspirated, parrallel 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. 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. Connected to the 999 cc engine is a fully-automatic six-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission. The transmission’s computer uses throttle position, RPM, and brake input, to establish driving style. For instance if you are an "aggressive driver" the character will be adjusted to be more exciting by allowing the engine to rev higher as it moves through the gears. The Dual Clutch Transmission offers quick and seamless shifts between gears. Don't like the gear selected in Automatic mode? Paddle shifters allow you to override the selected gear at any point and then seamlessly drop back into automatical mode. Want more control? Switch into Manual mode and use the paddle shifters to fly through the gears. The Talon 1000X includes a suite of stability assist features designed to make your ride safer, easier and more fun. Using technology developed for cars and trucks, this includes Brake Traction Control System (BTCS) and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD). When i-4WD is engaged using the dashboard-mounted switch, BTCS applies additional drive to the tire with more grip, providing better traction. EBD automatically optimizes front and rear braking power to the conditions, making slowing down or coming to a stop more efficient and stable. Getting going when you’re stopped on a hill can be a bit of an adventure. That’s why the Talon 1000X comes standard with Hill Start Assist (HSA). Activated with a dashmounted switch, HSA automatically maintains sufficient brake pressure so you can move your foot to the gas pedal and you’re under way. No more need to two-foot it or heel-and-toe shifting when conquering steep hills - meaning no rollback. 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. The one-piece roof section (with injection-moulded top) is designed with a built-in water gutter system that channels water away from the cabin to help keep the riders dry. Also, the roof air vents are designed so the Talon 1000X can be transported facing forwards or backwards on an open trailer. 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. Plus tax.
