I must be old, I don't want most of them things on any ATv I have LOL
I want simple not more gadgets!
I rather a brand new 1999 -2003 like , 450 foreman foot shift ,
than one with all that above on it!
NOT that all things are bad
I just mean, I rather simple
seems to me, folks are just getting way to dependent on gadgets today

If I had to have some other options to a OLDER atv, it would be a larger fuel tank for more range, a HI/LOW range transfer case, come stock on 26 inch tires ( a switchable on/off locker for the front)and geared to correct for the larger one's
a little more HP wouldn;'t hurt, but I'm OK with what they have if not! for what I do with an atv!
NO digital NOTHING, Simple!
and I'd bet they would sell a LOT of them too!

45,000 confirmed ?! Naw , mine does more then what i need, i can find a better investment for that kinda money, to grow, gadgets break, I'm old school like some of the guys here n only 28 hp for 1500 lbs , and a electric motor ? Lol did that full blown idiot duffus al gore help design this junk ? Haha! Give me a gas engine anytime......n four wheel steering ? On a quad ? REALLY ??!! Over kill IMO tire pressure system ? Plain dumb , the guys who designed this mess most be smart phone addicts...i don't don't want anything that mechanical computerised following me..... All this does is seem to take ALL the fun out riding..., i wouldn't have this junk! , i emagine honda just messed up with this quad, kinda makes me sick/angry they went from designing good to fair and now this messed up four wheel rolling computer....I'll add this if honda wants to build a better quality good selling machine, then all they have to do is ask the guys here! Sorry for the rant, but this one bothers me, a smart quad ? Sheesh! Honda just got a strike from me!

I,d like to hear what shady fish wheeler cman goober manny and others thinks......

I personally think, its NOT about taking the FUN out of things, its more about making things so NO skill is needed to drive them
its like cars with auto parking and lane alerts and turning lights and wipers on automatically
its making folks NOT need any skills to do things
and in the process, if you ask me, its making people dumber LOL
Smart this or that,
SURE isn;t helping humans get any smarter, just the opposite if you ask me

This is a good place to voice your opinion. The survey from Clarity for Honda just shows that they are considering lots of options, but listening to what we really want. There is no telling what they will actually do, but now is the time to hear some real opinions.

Seems that a computer on-board is likely part of the equation. "Follow me" mode would be great! I could put 200 stakes in the quad trailer, survey along, and just whistle and the darn thing would come to me. I wouldn't have to walk backwards anymore. Or I could shoot that Mastodon and just whistle and the quad and trailer would just show up.

Okay, no joking , a detachable head lamp @Mac (what i ment was they should have be standard on all utility atvs and an option for sport models) lol

on the new model detachable head light , n MAYBE the data log system....... Heated grips and seat YES

I don't know about that follow me. Mode ? I just don't like it.......as some of us have been flattened (by accident) what happens when all those electronic tracking parts get all slop covered ? Not to mention cost of repair.......

Range tracker? Maybe.... I would think it would be no good for those of us who ride the same ol trails....JMHO

I had a pretty good laugh at the follow me thing. I mean without sime kind of RTK your looking at 3m accuracy at best, which means if it follows you any closer than that you'r probably going to end up getting run over. Not to mention it wouldn't work anywhere except maybe an open field or parking lot since A) trees obstruct the satellite signal and B) ATV's can't run over big trees or lakes, or things like that lol.

I would think IF you really wanted it to COME to you , as you move, adding a hand held remote control that maybe fits into dash and can be removed would be a better idea than an ATV that just COMES towards you, 3 meters accurate, and it can drive off a cliff on you or into a lake or river or??

I still wouldn;t want that option, but can see some MIGHT?
but, more crap to just loose to break is my main view!

I guess the next thing will be self driving ATV's that go out ride the trails come back and tell you how fun it was.

HAHA< and they just video the whole thing, and you watch it on your smart phone or other like device, and , automatically sends copy's of it to the world , so they all can see your great riding skills LOL


Don't laugh, I seen a TV show where they had tens of thousands of people watching others play video games?? as if it was a sporting event or??
what happened to the world, of DOING things, yourself??
kids too lazy now to even PLAY video games, they just watch others do it?? LOL
were slipping down a hole I think there isn't much returning from!
