Technical Features & Spec's: 2008 Honda FourTrax Foreman Rubicon TRX500FA Rugged performance, sophisticated engineering--that's the Rubicon, through and through. It delivers the perfect combination of tough, torquey power from its longitudinal 499cc engine, and smooth, ready-when-you-are acceleration from its exclusive Hondamatic transmission. From the steepest trails to the open desert, the Rubicon has what it takes to get the job done, with no need to work overtime at the controls. Features & Benefits Unique Features - Honda's first liquid-cooled four-stroke ATV engine is a single-cylinder 499cc overhead-valve design that provides tremendous torque and dependable power. - Hondamatic transmission is a continuously variable, hydromechanical design that eliminates belts altogether. It is compact, quiet, maintenance-free and very rugged. The Hondamatic features true engine braking, unlike conventional belt-drive designs. - Torque-Sensitive Front Differential (see Technology Section) Engine/Drivetrain - TraxLok selectable 2WD/4WD system (see Technology Section) - 20-watt integrated carburetor heater for reliable cold-weather starting. - Liquid-cooled overhead-valve single-cylinder 499cc four-stroke engine is mounted longitudinally in the frame, allowing direct driveshaft alignment to front and rear wheels for improved drivetrain efficiency. - Camshaft is located adjacent to the cylinder head, reducing engine height. Together with the external engine-oil tank, engine height is further reduced for a low center of gravity and excellent handling. - Four-valve cylinder head utilizes two short pushrods to provide a broad powerband for optimum performance and engine efficiency. - Standard high-flow oil cooler ensures optimal engine lubrication under difficult operating conditions. - Rubber-cushion engine mounting and gear-driven counterbalancer reduce vibration. - Stainless steel exhaust system provides superior corrosion resistance. Hondamatic Automatic Transmission - The Hondamatic transmission utilizes variable hydraulic pressure and mechanical torque amplification to provide seamless job-handling power and excellent acceleration. Engine power drives a hydraulic pump. The pump, in turn, drives a hydraulic motor with variable fluid capacity. Utilizing pump and motor pistons and a variable-pitch motor-side swash plate, hydraulic capacity and pressure are varied, producing continuously variable output speed. In addition, torque is increased as output-shaft speed is reduced. - Select between one of three electronic shifting programs: D1 for maximum performance, D2 for maximum torque and ESP™, Honda's exclusive Electric Shift Program (see Technology Section). D1 and D2 modes provide continuously variable transmission output; ESP allows the rider to "shift" the Hondamatic with the touch of a thumb using two push-buttons mounted on the left handlebar. - The Hondamatic is extremely efficient, with operating efficiencies ranging from 75-81 percent in full-reduction mode and from 87-92 percent when input and output speeds are the same (1:1 ratio). - The Hondamatic is fully sealed, compact and maintenance-free, with no belts to wear out and replace. - The Hondamatic features true engine braking, unlike conventional belt-drive designs. Chassis/Suspension - Dual front disc brake calipers feature a patented built-in scraper system to remove mud and snow from inside the front wheel to help prevent buildup of debris between caliper and rim and ensure consistent braking performance. - Brake pads feature thick, long-wearing material with improved durability, feel and control. An internal scraper gives audible warning when pad life is low. - Rugged frame and suspension provide 7.5 inches of ground clearance. - Independent double-wishbone front suspension uses premium shock absorbers to provide 6.7 inches of suspension travel for a plush, comfortable ride. - Steel swingarm and dual rear shock absorbers provide 6.7 inches of suspension travel for superb comfort and compliance. - Powerful, single-piston caliper, front hydraulic 180mm disc brakes and sealed rear mechanical drum. Additional Features - Water-resistant storage is integrated into bodywork. - Engine design produces low emissions and meets California Air Resources Board (CARB) off-road emissions standards. - Multi-function LCD digital instrumentation is compact, tough and waterproof, featuring large readouts for Hondamatic transmission modes, gear selector position, speedometer, fuel gauge, odometer, resettable tripmeter and hourmeter/clock. Instrument housing includes LEDs for Reverse, Neutral and temperature warning indicator. - Waterproof accessory socket provides 12-volt, 10-amp power with a built-in temperature- type fuse. - Thickly padded seat provides all-day comfort. - Uniquely designed floorboards allow the rider's feet to grip the footrests while keeping mud and debris away from the rider's feet. - Standard over-fenders give excellent mud protection. - Powerful 361-watt AC generator. - Triple headlight system with single 45-watt upper light and dual 30-watt lower lights with multi-reflector lenses for optimal light distribution plus a 21-watt stop- and taillight. - Large front and rear cargo racks are rated at 66 and 133 pounds, respectively. - Unique rear-opening storage compartment allows access when rack is loaded. - Constant-velocity-joint boot guards help prevent damage to boot covers. - Triple skidplates.
