Outstanding review! I want to see one of these units in person. I’m in the market for a machine and have narrowed it down between Rzr and the Talon

Great video. informative and to the point. You have a new subscriber !

Best breakdown yet.

You do such a awesome job reviewing machines you actually know what your talking about and not a youtube salesman!!!

I think the best way to explain the sensors learning your driving patterns is algorithms. Who thought algorithms could be used for something other than the Internet.

Love your brain and ability to share your knowledge. Any chance you could tell me which machine would last longer- YXZ or Talon? Mostly trail riding. Probably some rock crawling. I like to go fast and push the machine to its limits.

I’m really curious to hear your impressions of the Talon X after you’ve driven it! You currently have my shocks and springs at your shop waiting for the full Monty Ride Improvement System treatment and I can’t wait to get them back and on the machine! I do 90% rough and rocky trail riding and I found the X suspension to be way to stiff in those conditions. So stiff in fact after the first ride in the Talon my wife announced she’d much rather ride in our 50” RZR 900 Trail with its 10” of suspension travel and factory shocks... that’s not a compliment to the RZR! Any level of speed through a whoop section resulted in neck snapping, rear bucking, out of control white knuckle, hang on driving, and slow speed trail riding over cobbled rock would jar your teeth loose. Not fun! I’m sure hoping that what I get back from Shock Therapy is a whole new level of control and comfort for an otherwise great machine.

Awesome review , been doing a lot of research on what SXS to buy, Then BOOM Honda comes to the table. I always been a person to never buy the first year of any new product. I'm currently looking at the Honda 1000x-4 fox live valve. I'm hoping that 2021 model is based on the 1000r. I talked to Jackson Racing as of Jan.2, 2020 the 1st shipments of Factory approved Turbo Kits are going out Friday Jan, 31 2020. They are just under 6K. My Question with the live valve shock set up. Are you working on a mod for this shock setup.

Love my Talon X with Shock Therapy spring kit in West Virginia. Only thing I disagree with is the assessment that the Talon X is a "trail" model comparable to the RZR 900 or 1000 S. It's way beyond those machines. To compare to the Polaris product, I think it's more in the category of the RZR XP 1000 at 64" wide and trailing arm rear suspension.

Its been a year, How's this machine measure up in the long run?

Great review. The jump zoom is horrible.

Where's the test drive video? I can't find it.

Anyone that grow up on Honda big reds, have never bought any other brand

What are your thoughts on the Talon 4 and putting 32's on it? Or should I just but a Polaris Turbo S and get one factory set up for 32's? I was just not sure how the Turbo S would do for just trail riding. Is the ride decent if it is not used for jumping and racing on the Talon 4? If not, do you think your spring kit would work? I'm looking for a trail buggy with the family.

Curious what you think about the fox live valve suspension on the talon 1000x-4

Where is the test drive video?

Looks like you went to ride now surprise 👍🏼

Aww Yeah!! .....the Talon!!

How much do these bad boys run for ?

car /kär/ noun A four-wheeled road vehicle that is powered by an engine and is able to carry a small number of people. Also used for cars on a train or an elevator.

Would you buy a talon 4 seater or a xp 4 turbo? I’m on the fence between Honda Polaris???

👍👍👍

How does this trans compare to the YXZ?

I cant believe these guys would allow a Mike Bloomberg advertisement. Still good informative material.

I appreciate all you said about this Honda talon, but you didn't say anything about the center located speedometer etc. which is not where it should be!(in FRONT of the DRIVER) You also didn't say anything about the small storage area's,or the fact that ALL of their accessories are 3 times higher in cost than any others. And what about the fact that the air box intake is in the rear wheel well, where it sucks in dirt like crazy, and requires you to change the air filter more quickly than other machines in the same class. Just a few thoughts!

Surprised you didn’t mention the poor location of the gauge cluster...

Great review, but you need to fire the editor. The jump zooms are completely obnoxious and annoying with no motivation for them. Tell your editor to take an editing class.

3:30 Is this a marketing plug? An open diff with brakes has no where near the same capability a locked front end has. With a locker, torque flows dynamically between the wheels based of traction. No wheel will slip unless both have too much power. On the ground, the honda has no real way of measuring which wheel to brake without one slipping, so it's reactive vs the natural torque flow of a locker. With a fully locked drive line all drive torque can "theoretically" be driven through any one wheel at any given time. If these systems were anywhere near as capable, then manufacturers like Jeep, Hummer, Chevy, Ford, Toyota, LR, and more wouldn't even use lockers and other advanced traction devices. Why wouldn't Honda just use an open rear diff with traction control as well? Heck, why not use 3 open diffs to give it the best turning performance? . At speed, sure it's fine and better for handling. On slow trails you can, and will, lose huge amounts of torque transfer because the front end loses traction on one wheel causing the whole differential to lose torque... since open diffs send torque 50/50, the wheel with the least traction limits the one with the most traction to its torque level. With crawling, weight transfer makes traction loads far more uneven which further exacerbates this. ie, if one wheel has 10 ft lbs and the other has 100, then they both get 10 ft lbs for total of 20. With a locker it can handle 110ft lbs before spinning sending 10 to one wheel and 100 to the other. A brake based system would have to guess the correct brake pressure to even get both wheels to have anywhere near that. ie, if the system brakes the 10 ft lbs wheel with 60ft lbs of force then it gets 70 driven to both hubs but 80 to the ground. And if the brake system over brakes the wheel it will hurt momentum. ie, brakes 150 ft lbs of force would lock up the 10ft lbs wheel completely and restricting the vehicle's acceleration. . Maybe if honda used a helical diff that has proportional lock up to the torque flowing through it, but an open diff with brake based traction control is not in the same league as a locked differential. It's not best of both worlds. Subaru's DCCD diff is probably the closest thing. Helical differential with electromagnetic clutch to quickly change its lock-up and can do so without impeding momentum through the use of brakes.

Couldn't make it through the video cause he keeps calling it a car. A Corvette is a car!!!

its not a car it is a side x side

I've never seen a "car" that looks like a buggy.🤔

And 5 months later you hate the Honda! 😂

It’s not a car smh

Why do you keep calling this utility terrain vehicle, a car? Lol so annoying hearing you keep saying it...
