2011 Honda FourTrax Recon

prd — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 15:03:16 +0000

There’s an old saying: “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog.” Which, of course, describes the FourTrax Recon to a tee. While it may be our smallest Utility ATV, this 250cc-class machine is every bit the workhorse its bigger siblings are, offering rugged, reliable 2WD performance second to none. Better still, its compact size and footprint let it tackle tight trails larger ATVs might find impassable. And we even have two models to choose from: Our standard Recon comes with a conventional foot-shift ATV transmission, while the Recon ES features our Electric Shift Program (ESP) technology that lets you shift using two convenient handlebar-mounted buttons.
