17 February 2009 - The TRX700XX is the most powerful ATV Honda has ever built, and with its thundering 686cc, SOHC, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, four-valve, four-stroke engine, it takes the art of four wheeling to a whole new level.

With four-wheel Independent front and rear double-wishbone Suspension (IRS), the TRX700XX redefines the class with a whole new level of confidence, comfort and high end performance.

The IRS system uses premium shock absorbers that allow a lighter, more compact package, all made possible by the innovative chain drive system.

The TRX700 also features a PGM fuel injection system with 44mm throttle body for excellent cold weather starting with the push of a button, lower maintenance and consistent performance at high altitudes.

Its special, large-diameter 11-inch aluminium rear wheels are designed to enhance superior power delivery, optimum suspension action and improved durability. With a rugged five-speed transmission, including reverse, the 700's components and ratios are specifically designed for competition use, whilst the heavy-duty clutch is also made to stand up to the demands of the sport.

Additional features include a stainless steel muffler/spark arrester for quiet operation, high-efficiency dry-sump lubrication system for maximum engine cooling, and triple disc brakes for excellent stopping power.

The TRX700 was designed with comfort and ergonomics in mind and includes a sculpted, plush seat, cowl-integrated headlight, high-visibility, long-life LED brake light, high-impact urethane skidplates to protect the frame and engine case, rear mudguards with rigid footrests and much more.

New colours for 2009 include Metallic Black/Grey and Metallic Red/ Black; recommended retail is $13,290.
