Description
There’s big news this year for the Honda Foreman line-up. It starts with a new, bigger 518cc engine, and continues with a host of other improvements. For those looking for a plush and smooth ride it’s easy to choose the TRX520FM6. With independent rear suspension (IRS), a manual transmission and power steering, this is an unbelievably capable bike that will provide all-day comfort on the farm.
When you need a durable manual machine that can handle the toughest of terrain, and you also need a large towing capacity, the new TRX520FM6 is the perfect choice. The larger engine provides improved power and torque where you need it - in the low end and midrange - for quicker acceleration, better ascending and improved hauling, complementing the massive 600kg towing capacity. A handlebar-mounted switch makes it easy to select between two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive and four-wheel drive with the front differential locked.
The new 1.9L utility box with weatherproof cover on the front deck provides a second storage compartment, while the newly engineered front and rear cargo racks provide more loading options. New styling completes the package and provides a more aggressive stance, making the FM6 better than ever.
