I put a 3" line set insulation noodle behind my seat between the bed gap and help alot with heat and dust. Can also use a pool noodle! Great videos thank you Piney.
Thats a excellent idea! Thanks for sharing that and that will be on my list to try. Love the ideas and tips that people come up with in the comments from the videos.Thank you and thanks for watching.
Bought me a 2020, 1000-5 and it was the pioneer that I even found your channel. Mine had 250 miles on it, guy did all kinds of updates including a heat shield, and the dam thing will still fry you. I’m adding electric motor fans and air vents next. Cool vid, keep up the content you ol Hillbilly! GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations on your machine. Your gonna love it. Keep me posted on how the fans work. Thanks And we will try our best to keep the videos coming. Who knows might have to do one on a lil moonshine.lol. Thanks for watching.
I have a 2023 Pioneer 1000-5 Trail Edition and this thing is a beast. Only complaint was the heat radiating up thru the seat from the engine. I took care of about 80% of that with some heat shielding. I have pointed it at some hills that honestly made me a bit nervous, never a single hiccup from this machine. Just what you would expect from a Honda.
The cabin heat can be a bit rough at times but a little heat shielding and it comfortable. Totally agree on putting the pioneer in some sticky situations. I have pushed the limits and the pioneer pulls right thru. Can’t beat a Honda and congrats on your purchase.
Same machine same here. Like to say I like your review. I bought a tire carrier that can also hold a cooler as an aftermarket add-on. I agree with your battery addition. With a winch and LEDs all over the unit it is probably a good addition. Thanks for your comments
Pretty cool we got the same machines. I love my deluxe. Interesting on the tire carrier and cooler accessory. If you don't mind me asking, what is the name of it or where did you get it?. The spare tire seems to be a item people are wanting to carry. I have a lot of people asking about tire carriers. Thank you for watching and supporting our channel.
I have the 2016 Pioneer 1000-5 Deluxe in Honda Phantom Camo. I Raptor Lined mine into OD Green. I have the dual battery setup, reverse light bar, stereo with 2 speakers, winch, under dash storage, middle PBR cup holder panel, and I just ordered the DEI heat shield kit after watching your video because the heat is unbearable in mine. I’m wanting to do the front light bar and the side light pods too eventually. Mine is also used for hunting/ trail riding.
Sounds like we have a lot in common and the same taste in hobbies. The raptor liner sound interesting to me. I will have to look into that. You wont regret the dei. It helps alot.
I have had my pioneer for 4 years now. It’s a 2018 1000-5 deluxe. I use it for everything on my farm. No issues yet with the exception of some recalls you mentioned. The heat shied was another recall but no mechanical issues yet!🤞The heat shield recall was supposed to help the heat issue but I didn’t see the difference, but I’m in upstate NY. I welcome the heat 10 of the 12 months!😁
Sounds like we have the same machines. Mine is a 2018 1000-5 deluxe also. The dei kit I installed works great but I do miss the heat during deer season. Lol Thanks for watching all the way up in NY
i purchased a 2021 Honda Pioneer 1000 last year and it is my first side by side. i have rode with other people in there Rangers and Razors but hands down I love my Honda. It has much more room inside the cab. I am a big guy 6' 330lbs. I own a Polaris magnum 325 2wd 2001 still have it by the way. Also have a 2013 Polaris 400 Sportsman 4wd. One thing I did do was installed a 4k warn winch on it and put the plug for it in the glove box so to stay free from mud and what ever. Now when I bought it they only had color red and I am from Kentucky and if anyone with any common since about them I am not riding around in a red side by side. Changed it all out to Blue much better now. I still have the red plastic hood and all never been used other than off trailer into my barn to get changed out..
Hello neighbor, your not to far from us. Glad to hear your enjoying your pioneer. They are great machines. A winch is not a have to but it sure comes In handy at times. Thanks for watching brother
That is a inexpensive trick. Thank you for sharing. That’s the great thing about the comment section is everybody gets tips and tricks here. Once again thanks got watching and thanks for sharing.
Great video! I have a 2019 deluxe 1000-5. Just 4000 miles on it and almost no issues other than torn boots. I have run into the issue of running the winch and it basically drawing enough power to cause a fault with the DCT. Had to shut it down and restart to clear the fault. Installed the auxiliary battery about a week after that. Also I did install the Throttlemax and it has made a difference. As you pointed out the Bighorns aren’t bad tires but they’re only 6 ply so I had some 8 ply, 28” Carnivores put on and they are way quieter on the roads and do fine down at Hatfield trails as well. As much as I love my machine I just found a 1000-5 SE that recently hit the showroom. So I may be upgrading in the near future.
Thank you, The auxiliary battery is a must on these machines and Honda really should have put them on from factory or at least be a option. I have heard some good things about the carnivores. They seem a little more aggressive than my terrabites so I bet they do good in mud. The Throttlemax is on my list for 2021. Me personally I have got used to the throttle issue but every once in awhile the jumping gets me. LOL. Good luck on the SE They are nice and keep us posted. Thanks for watching
Great video. Glad I watch your channel. I had no idea of a recall. I bought my 1000-5 new in October of 2020. Just checked the vin number and it falls into the recalled vehicles. Really surprised honda never sent me anything. Thanks buddy!
Thank you. Its crazy that Honda did not send you a notice. There has been several people told me they didn't have a clue about the recall till they heard me mention it in the video. Glad that the video helped people out. Thanks for your support of the channel. More pioneer videos coming soon
Nice machine man I just bought a wolverene R max 1000 xtr, not even broke in yet. I have been smoke pole hunting in PA. the buggy gets me there. keep the vids coming u do a good job.
Thanks brother, Those Yamaha wolverines are nice! I cant wait for muzzleloader here in Tennessee. Keep us posted on how your season goes. Good luck and fingers crossed you fill that wolverine bed with a load of deer.
@@pamountainmilitia3977 BOOM! Congrats man! Even though I have a walk in cooler I still prefer the iced down meat in a cooler. If its a big rutted up buck icing the meat in a cooler is the best way to get the gamey taste out of it. Congrats again. Good luck the rest of the season and keep us posted on your season.
Love my Pioneer 2016- 1000-3. I've put my machine into some pretty horrible situations and it has not let me down. 3500 miles so far and zero issues. Excellent quality and no belts!
They are AWESOME machines. I love mine and its been a workhorse for me. Sounds like yours is holding up the same. Got to love a HONDA and no belt. Thanks for watching
Hey josh I had a notification that I had a comment from you but when I clicked on it, it disappered . The question was if I was near bluff city TN I think? anyways I'm actually right below Knoxville TN. Fell free to send any questions or comments.
I bought the 2021 special edition. Did put glass windshield,it had everything else I needed. Thinking of making it road legal . It has never let me down"great sxs, and no belt.
One negative I would add is the weight, not because it hurts the performance because there's plenty of power for this type of utility SXS, but because it makes it tough to fit in the super light 7000lbs toy haulers. A 10 foot garage never expected to cram so much capability in it. I too was thinking skid plate upgrade but I don't want to add more weight. Not just weight of skid plate but weight of all the accumulated trapped dirt that adds up so fast. I like the quickly removable, light factory "skid plate". Maybe consider adding armor to wheel well area and other vulnerable stick puncture areas instead. I also appreciate your explanation of use of winch causing enough voltage sag that the DCT can't function right. Most people drive and winch at same time for control. Guess I am adding a little more fixed weight.
Good point on the weight. My 2018 from factory with no extras is over 1700 lbs wet.. I hadn't thought much about the weight and room issues with a toyhauler. I have heard Another negative point would be the cage height also for toy haulers... I'm really torn on the skid plates and you just brought up a valid point on the accumulated mud. I was not taking that into consideration on a purchase but I will add it to the list... I have been thinking about just making removable rock sliders and fender well guards like you described in your comment. Something that will at least stop a stick or rock coming through the floor. Might be another DIY video down the road on that. lol.... You wont regret the dual battery it just adds some piece of mind and its like insurance for you clutch. Thanks for sharing your comments and insight on some issues that I'm sure a lot of us hadn't thought about.
Ive owned a Pioneer 1000-5 Limited, and the biggest issues we had was rough ride, heat, lack of rear seating space, and the noise. Build quality was great, power was great, reliability was great.
Thank you for the comment. Those are several complaints I hear pretty often on the pioneer. Also the same on the positives of the pioneer. Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching
I have a 700-4 pioneer, and the door rattling and lack of doors sealing is mind-numbing. It will be a project this winter to figure out a way to seal the doors and get rid of the rattling. Other than that, the 3 speed in the 700-4 needs to be thrown out and should have a 5 or 6 speed in them.
I agree. Honda could do a lot better job of sealing up the cabs and work on the rattling issue. The 700-4 does need 6 speed transmission. I believe they would sell a lot more 700 if they did. Thanks for watching.
That machine is going to be my retirement gift to me lol. I have a water jug I’ve been putting money in for years and years. I’m pretty sure in 3 more years I should be able to pay cash or close to it for my p1000-5 lol. Oh ya and I will still be keeping my p500 for hunting and ice fishing. I’ve got it all enclosed now. Next will be a heater and she is good to go lol. Almost forgot lol another great video my friend gj!!!
Good to hear from you my friend. Sounds like you got the p500 winter proof. I bet that enclosed cab is going to be nice on a cold day with the heater. Thank you and glad you liked the video. Oh yeah Tennessee has a 3 day velvet hunt it is the 27th thru the 29th. I got a couple bucks pegged for that weekend! I hope! That is if the cooperate. lol. Anyways check back in on us we are gonna get after soon.
Nice video. I'm going to be in the market for one of these in a year or 2. I'm probably going Honda. I have the Rubicon 500 quad and it runs like a champ.
You wont be disappointed with a pioneer. Especially since you have a Honda now. They are the most reliable machines on the market to date. Keep us posted on your future purchase. Thanks you and thanks for watching.
As a Canadian I do love your accent. Spent a a year in SC best people. Oh and you're video was great. Every thing I own that is powered by gas is a HONDA, just got to get the sxs😂
Thank you and our accent can get pretty thick at times. LOL. I'm a firm believer in Honda. There engineering is second to none. Good to hear from you all the way up in Canada. Thank you for watching.
I did take your advise a few years back and hooked the winch up to the factory battery, but everything else ,lights radio and such are wired to a fuse block on the second battery with an isolator. No problems yet.
Good to hear my friend. I have moved my winch over to my secondary battery now. I never had any issues but I just wanted to get everything extra on the second battery. Just in case. But honestly I haven't noticed anything different at all. No issues. Thanks for watching and your continued support
I can tell all of you with certainty that honda makes the best utv because I mechanic at a utv rental resort and all the other brands are just a high priced joke they are unreliable as he'll the honda talon has held up better then the rzr krx x3 mavric trail only other one that may win is the rmax only time will tell but my money is on red change my mind great vid ol bro
Hey buddy, Sounds good on the channel. Wont be long till deer season is up and running. Thank you and Look forward to filming some stuff this fall. Love you bud!
I had never heard of tire ject until I seen your comment. Looked it up and did some research and It looks like a impressive product. I will be ordering some to try. Thanks for sharing.
@@pineylife I follow Onelonelyfarmer on here. He put this tuff in a quad tire and shot it with a .22. Sealed itself. I knew i needed to try it. Hasn't let me down yet.
@@pineylife By no means was it an insult at all!! He has a recognizable voice and yours is pretty darned close! By the way, I do not own a Honda... YET. Its on the list in the next 30 days or so. I just cant decide if I want the Pioneer, or the talon 1000x4. I got some grandbabies that will want to take rides on the farm, so an upgrade from the 4 wheeler has got to happen.
I have never purchased one or installed one by they are cool and hold a lot of stuff. The o ly reason I haven’t is because of getting to the hood . Honestly they might be handy if my light bar was mounted higher up.
There's a guy on RUclips out of Texas that does a steel tailgate stiffener and leveling kit that I put on mine thats done phenomenal job for the tailgate. A must have in my opinion
Spot on review, I basically have the same list of complaints about my 2020 Pioneer 1000-5. From you're video's I gather I need to install the DI kit to help with the overwhelming engine heat problem in the drivers compartment. I'd like to ask if your kit helped to cut down on some of the massive dust cloud that also seems to build in the driver's compartment, or just a heat fix?
Thank you. I believe every pioneer owner relates to our problem. LOL. The Kit is a must for summer time riding. It did not help with the dust issue but the fabric back mid panel almost eliminates the dust issue. Kit helps keep the dust down big time. Check out my pioneer playlist on my channel. I have a Honda genuine fabric mid back panel and a kemimoto fabric mid panel video. They are a must for trail riding. I have the product listed in the description of the video's. Thank you for the support of my channel and if there is anything I can help you with please let me know.
Larry. I have been looking real hard at the UHMV style skid plates. I love the look of aluminum and the almost puncture resistance material but they are also known to bend and be real loud when something hits it.(which I'm not crazy about due to hunting! LOL). The UHMV Style skid plates are easier to slide over objects , They are thicker and tend to reshape back to its normal form after being hit or almost punctured. Now the aluminum UHMV coated are AWESOME ! but they come with a hefty price.
Got a 1000 5 .Has been in and out Off The Melbourne Dealer for service power steering power light.comes.on been in out five or six times they can't figure it out they blamed it on water damage never done no water damage on my bike
It’s on my pioneer playlist. Here’s the link to it. Honda pioneer 1000 bed rattle fix. How to video or diy with parts list! ruclips.net/video/taOrDzX3NsA/видео.html
Do you wish you had the Fox shocks? Or is there much difference between the stock shock vs the fox shocks? Trying to see if the fox shocks are worth the $ on the new trail model
I have road in a pioneer that had fox shocks and it was considerably more comfortable on rough trails. The only reason I haven't installed a set yet is for #1 price. #2im not sure how well they would perform with me using mine for more of a hauling and pulling machine part of the time. I do intend on trying a set but probably not till next year.
They all are great machines. For me it was the Honda. Mainly just reliability and no belt. The can am runs a close second for me. But this machine has been perfect for me and what it do. Keep us posted on what you end up with.
great video as always brother! you touched on it briefly, but it was THE selling point for me - the convertible rear seat. i needed space sometimes for 3 kids, but also wanted a bed to carry gear and materials when i needed it. i didnt want a 6 seater with a long wheel base. up here in new england, the trails can get tight, and making sharp turns and quick elevation change with a long wheel base is a no-go. my question for you is - why hasn't polaris or can-am caught on and made their own convertible rear seat? does honda have it patent protected that well?
From what I have found out and talking to the dealers is. Honda has a patent That will not allow anyone to copy there idea for 7 years with a extension of 3 more years if they want. Can am and Polaris both have the 6 seaters which is more targeted towards the construction, farming, and ranching market. But also works great for recreational use also. In my opinion I believe that when the patent law gets the easement. Can am and Polaris will do a normal wheel base model in at least a 4 seat stow away design. I agree 100 percent with you. A huge selling point was the stow and go seats. Super nice if you need to haul someone or flip them down for a full bed. I have the same need as you do, here in Tennessee these mountain trails can be tight and a long utv was not a option. Hunting and trail riding the normal wheel base was a must.
Thank you, Glad that our videos may have helped you in some way. You wont regret buying that machine that's for sure. I have not seen a basket or safari style rack for them yet but I will look into it. Maybe there is a company that makes them or maybe even some DIY stuff out there. If I find anything I will get back with you. Also if you find one please comment back.
I have never noticed a shadow on my hood . The main reason I put it at the bottom was do to i retrieve deer and do some woods riding where there is a lot of limbs our stuff hanging down that would hit the light bar. Also it is super easy and sturdy to mount it at the bottom where the cage bolts together. No issues with the top or roof. Its very handy and easy to see over. That light bar really puts the light out too
Yes absolutely I agree with what you're saying about the small things on the pioneer I've been a Honda man my entire life from the 350 d to the 500 Rubicon 2002 Goldwing F6B non-dct got to have a clutch me lots of research on the Yamaha rmx 4 seater and the Honda Pioneer 5 and I ended up with the Yamaha XTR the trail sport mode takes out all that bucking that that Honda was doing the seating comfort way overbuilt suspension Fox shocks comes with the roof 14 inch aluminum alloy wheels the adventure Pro for navigation the e-brake shifting center console floorboard lights overall bit to finish it made my decision and being that Yamaha has the ultramatic 10-year warranty on the Belt and it comes with 29-in carnivores 14-in rims 14 inches of ground clearance I just feel like Honda's falling behind they've had plenty of time to be right up there with Yamaha
Sounds like your Yamaha has a ton of options that the Honda don’t. I could have got the fox shocks but I would have had to by the limited edition and I wasn’t paying another $5000 dollars for a few small options that I could add later on. They have stepped there game up with no belt but lacked in other areas. Congratulations on your purchase it sounds like a awesome machine. Thanks for sharing.
Congrats on your purchase you are gonna love your machine. The soft tops are super affordable on amazon but if your looking for a hard top they can get super expensive. Alot of people are getting metal shops to form them one. I will look and see what I can find for you
No we are in Loudon Co. South east Tennessee. It surprised me how many places are called piney in Tennessee. There is actually a river called the piney river down in Hickman , Dickson Tennessee area also. I have some friends I have acquired since I started this channel that have bought several decals and hats from me with the Piney Life brand since the area they live in is called piney. Its a small world.
We just purchased a honda pioneer special addition. We had a ranger and things seem to be cheaply made compared to my freinds pioneer. Also we know a guy that is retired and has a 2016 p5 with 62000m on it. Thats right 62000m not 6200. So factoring all that when it come to purchasing a new bike we where staring at the honda pioneer
They are a very cool concept and do come in handy at times but they are very uncomfortable for adults on long rides. They sit real low so kids cant see out very good. I have found that the terrain seat from pur pro is a very nice addition to help with seat height and comfort also the seat pads they offer stacked up is very comfortable too.
Check out Rad Customs. They make a seat plate that you can bolt a Polaris seat to it. I have two guys in the back all the time when we are hunting. They are so comfortable, say that its better than riding up front. True stadium seating.
Great informative video, I bought a 22 deluxe. I seen on another video they took boat cushions and used them for the back seats. They work great, plus I have the stock Honda plastic roof. When not using boat cushions, you can slide them between the roll bar and plastic roof. They hold real good. Even when hauling down the road at 65 to 70 mph. They never fell out.
@@williamwayand237 thanks for sharing that info. That’s a pretty neat storage idea for those boats seats. That’s what I love about these video comments. We can all learn from one another. Thanks again and thanks for watching.
No not at all. It doesn't obstruct my view or have a glare over the front end. The bar projects out in front of the side x side so there's no shadow areas. I love mine, especially on trails in the woods at night.
@@dougsteinard7218 they are awesome machines. You and I think a like. That’s the exact reason I put mine at the bottom and it has worked perfectly so far.
When it had the bighorn 2.0 on it if you was driving at a high rate of speed you had to scream at the passenger but once I put the Terrabites on it. You can talk to your passenger at a high rate of speed. Cut the sound in half.
a lot of people add the rear fabric panel to the rear of the Pioneer and that really cuts down on the amount of dust. I actually have the mid fabric panel on my pioneer and I helps to keep the cabin clean but the bed takes on a lot of dust without the rear panel. Her is the link for the mid panel- amzn.to/3qpF4Vl here is the link for the rear - amzn.to/3JicFcv . Some people have got creative and fund some windscreen type material with designs on them but I haven't seen one that last a long time. Let me know if you need anymore info
🏆🏆🏆👍🇺🇲🙏 Love my heat kit and vent extensions from buyyourownbeer eBay, Throttle Maxx, RB3 bushings, Hillbilly parking brake. I have Interco 28x10-14 920 Sniper 8 ply DOT approved. And, Super ATV Intimidators 28x10-14. Both sets on MSA 14x7 10mm offset wheels. No spacers no lift no rubbing. And Mudbusters fender flares. And backup camera. Love the OTRATTW switches. And Warn VRX 4500 with wireless remote with holder on dash. I have Armor Tech steel roof, glass windshield, rear bumper, and steel rear panel with sliding window.. D-Rings on front and rear. And, Element-50 fire extinguisher. Lights like a flare. Works for over 50 seconds and compared to a 5 lb bottle for 5 seconds. Fumes are non toxic to inhale, and it's a gas, no chemical residue to damage entertaining electronics , wires or robber hoses or components. Thank you for sharing
Wow now that's a list of parts. There is several items on your utv that I am interested in looking at! Vent extensions , mud busters , fire extinguisher and the back up camera just to name a few. I will be checking them out. Thank you for sharing.
Great info. I'm on the fence. Most machines are either too sport focused or too utility. The concern I have is the bench seat. Wish it had more padding and had some adjustment. I'm wondering how rough on the butt/back the P1000-5 is on the trail at speed.. crawling on soft ground is quite different than going down a dirt back road full of pits and bumps.
Thank you. I have road mine for long distances and never had a issue. I agree that soft trails are different than rough roads ,especially at a higher speed but even at windrock park in Tennessee, I had absolutely no issues with comfort. Now I have seat covers on mine also that helps with the butt sweat and uncomfortable ride or as we call it (monkey butt)lol. The seat covers take away that issue. I drove both bucket style utvs and bench, to me the bench is easier on the rear. Of course shocks and suspension play a big part comfort also.
They are on my list for my pioneer but the reason I didn’t buy the limited was because it was a $7000 price difference plus they didn’t have it in camo. Lol. The fox shocks have came down some in price . The q3 fox shocks for pioneer 1000 are around $1700 and Amazon’s even carrying them. So to answer your question yes I won’t the ride of the fox shocks but no I would have paid Honda the extra money.
Congrats on your purchase. Its really according to what you are gonna use it for. Windshield and top is a must no matter what your gonna do with your machine. If your gonna add a bunch of accessories I would recommend the tru dual battery system , a fuse block and ground block. If your gonna just add a few electric devices like a radio and light bar I wouldn't worry to much about the dual battery. One item that i really get alot of use out of is my underdash storage. Very useful.
havent tried it yet myself, been hesitant because of the cost (why $90 for a small hinge?) and now they arent being sold in black. some guys on the hondasxs forum rigged up a door hinge from the hardware store at a fraction of the price. might try that some day!
@@bencote2219 it is basically a reconfigured barn door strap hinge and it could easily be duplicated. It’s overpriced but it definitely works as advertised.
Every state is different on what they will consider street legal. In Tennessee it has to have headlights (low and high beam), taillights, brake lights, turn signals, horn, side mirrors, rear view mirrors. once you have all of that you can apply for a mid speed tag which means you can drive on any road that is 45 mph or less. You will have to check your DMV and see what the requirements are for your state to allow a mid speed tag or street legal plate
Just gets done complaining about all the rattles all over, then says they are top quality machines. I understand what he means, but having a lot of rattle noises shows lower quality, not necessarily lower reliability, but shows they cut corners on some areas they really shouldn't.
Thanks for your input. Its pretty obvious that they cut corners and I do hate the rattles. I have multiple videos on what I have tried to fix on that issue also another valid point is the dual battery molded spot under the hood (For a second battery) That they should have added a second battery or at least made it a option. Now, On the positive side, the reliability of the drive train and the running part of the machine is what I was trying to point out on the top quality. I have worked on many machines ands I still stand by the Honda on drive train reliability. Interesting on your channel name. I had to go look it up. Thanks for your input and Thanks for watching
@@pineylife it was a very good and well rounded video, and I understood what you meant about quality, it just sounded funny. I drive Hondas as well, and know there reliability is unmatched, but as you pointed out, there are areas that they do cut short and could do better, nothing that would make me not buy them, but just little annoyances. Thank you for the reply, and I hope it didn't come across that I didn't like the video, because I really did. Keep up the good work.
@@Acts258 Thank you. No worries. Sometimes I think I have a hard time getting my point across or explaining myself in videos. Lol. Thanks for the watching and supporting my channel.
Good point. But I have a winch on the front and one in the bed. When Im using a winch And watching my volt meter there is a hard draw on the battery. Me personally running a winch and lights I dont want to take a chance but I do see your point. Thank your for your input and for watching
Thanks for this excellent review. As well I'm 3 years into my 2018 1000-5 and I agree on all counts. I love my Honda Pioneer!
Your welcome and thank you. Honda is the most reliable machine on the market. Love my HONDA
I put a 3" line set insulation noodle behind my seat between the bed gap and help alot with heat and dust. Can also use a pool noodle! Great videos thank you Piney.
Thats a excellent idea! Thanks for sharing that and that will be on my list to try. Love the ideas and tips that people come up with in the comments from the videos.Thank you and thanks for watching.
Bought me a 2020, 1000-5 and it was the pioneer that I even found your channel. Mine had 250 miles on it, guy did all kinds of updates including a heat shield, and the dam thing will still fry you. I’m adding electric motor fans and air vents next. Cool vid, keep up the content you ol Hillbilly! GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations on your machine. Your gonna love it. Keep me posted on how the fans work. Thanks And we will try our best to keep the videos coming. Who knows might have to do one on a lil moonshine.lol. Thanks for watching.
I have a 2023 Pioneer 1000-5 Trail Edition and this thing is a beast. Only complaint was the heat radiating up thru the seat from the engine. I took care of about 80% of that with some heat shielding. I have pointed it at some hills that honestly made me a bit nervous, never a single hiccup from this machine. Just what you would expect from a Honda.
The cabin heat can be a bit rough at times but a little heat shielding and it comfortable.
Totally agree on putting the pioneer in some sticky situations. I have pushed the limits and the pioneer pulls right thru. Can’t beat a Honda and congrats on your purchase.
Same machine same here. Like to say I like your review. I bought a tire carrier that can also hold a cooler as an aftermarket add-on. I agree with your battery addition. With a winch and LEDs all over the unit it is probably a good addition. Thanks for your comments
Pretty cool we got the same machines. I love my deluxe. Interesting on the tire carrier and cooler accessory. If you don't mind me asking, what is the name of it or where did you get it?. The spare tire seems to be a item people are wanting to carry. I have a lot of people asking about tire carriers. Thank you for watching and supporting our channel.
I have the 2016 Pioneer 1000-5 Deluxe in Honda Phantom Camo. I Raptor Lined mine into OD Green. I have the dual battery setup, reverse light bar, stereo with 2 speakers, winch, under dash storage, middle PBR cup holder panel, and I just ordered the DEI heat shield kit after watching your video because the heat is unbearable in mine. I’m wanting to do the front light bar and the side light pods too eventually. Mine is also used for hunting/ trail riding.
Sounds like we have a lot in common and the same taste in hobbies. The raptor liner sound interesting to me. I will have to look into that. You wont regret the dei. It helps alot.
I have had my pioneer for 4 years now. It’s a 2018 1000-5 deluxe. I use it for everything on my farm. No issues yet with the exception of some recalls you mentioned. The heat shied was another recall but no mechanical issues yet!🤞The heat shield recall was supposed to help the heat issue but I didn’t see the difference, but I’m in upstate NY. I welcome the heat 10 of the 12 months!😁
Sounds like we have the same machines. Mine is a 2018 1000-5 deluxe also. The dei kit I installed works great but I do miss the heat during deer season. Lol Thanks for watching all the way up in NY
i purchased a 2021 Honda Pioneer 1000 last year and it is my first side by side. i have rode with other people in there Rangers and Razors but hands down I love my Honda. It has much more room inside the cab. I am a big guy 6' 330lbs. I own a Polaris magnum 325 2wd 2001 still have it by the way. Also have a 2013 Polaris 400 Sportsman 4wd.
One thing I did do was installed a 4k warn winch on it and put the plug for it in the glove box so to stay free from mud and what ever. Now when I bought it they only had color red and I am from Kentucky and if anyone with any common since about them I am not riding around in a red side by side. Changed it all out to Blue much better now. I still have the red plastic hood and all never been used other than off trailer into my barn to get changed out..
Hello neighbor, your not to far from us. Glad to hear your enjoying your pioneer. They are great machines. A winch is not a have to but it sure comes In handy at times. Thanks for watching brother
What I did to fix the rattles on the doors is: wrap the latch hook with electrical tape. Lasts a long time (depending on use) and fixes it for cheap.
That is a inexpensive trick. Thank you for sharing. That’s the great thing about the comment section is everybody gets tips and tricks here. Once again thanks got watching and thanks for sharing.
Great video! I have a 2019 deluxe 1000-5. Just 4000 miles on it and almost no issues other than torn boots. I have run into the issue of running the winch and it basically drawing enough power to cause a fault with the DCT. Had to shut it down and restart to clear the fault. Installed the auxiliary battery about a week after that. Also I did install the Throttlemax and it has made a difference. As you pointed out the Bighorns aren’t bad tires but they’re only 6 ply so I had some 8 ply, 28” Carnivores put on and they are way quieter on the roads and do fine down at Hatfield trails as well.
As much as I love my machine I just found a 1000-5 SE that recently hit the showroom. So I may be upgrading in the near future.
Thank you, The auxiliary battery is a must on these machines and Honda really should have put them on from factory or at least be a option. I have heard some good things about the carnivores. They seem a little more aggressive than my terrabites so I bet they do good in mud. The Throttlemax is on my list for 2021. Me personally I have got used to the throttle issue but every once in awhile the jumping gets me. LOL. Good luck on the SE They are nice and keep us posted. Thanks for watching
Thanks for video! Getting my 22 1000-5 this week cant wait !
Your welcome and that’s awesome news on the purchase. Your gonna love it!
Great video. Glad I watch your channel. I had no idea of a recall. I bought my 1000-5 new in October of 2020. Just checked the vin number and it falls into the recalled vehicles. Really surprised honda never sent me anything. Thanks buddy!
Thank you. Its crazy that Honda did not send you a notice. There has been several people told me they didn't have a clue about the recall till they heard me mention it in the video. Glad that the video helped people out. Thanks for your support of the channel. More pioneer videos coming soon
Nice machine man I just bought a wolverene R max 1000 xtr, not even broke in yet. I have been smoke pole hunting in PA. the buggy gets me there. keep the vids coming u do a good job.
Thanks brother, Those Yamaha wolverines are nice! I cant wait for muzzleloader here in Tennessee. Keep us posted on how your season goes. Good luck and fingers crossed you fill that wolverine bed with a load of deer.
I just got a nice doe this evening. meat in the freezer, well im ageing it in a cooler first lol.
@@pamountainmilitia3977 BOOM! Congrats man! Even though I have a walk in cooler I still prefer the iced down meat in a cooler. If its a big rutted up buck icing the meat in a cooler is the best way to get the gamey taste out of it. Congrats again. Good luck the rest of the season and keep us posted on your season.
Could not agree more..I love mine. Appreciate the heads-up on tires.
Thank you and your welcome. Thanks for watching
Love my Pioneer 2016- 1000-3. I've put my machine into some pretty horrible situations and it has not let me down. 3500 miles so far and zero issues. Excellent quality and no belts!
They are AWESOME machines. I love mine and its been a workhorse for me. Sounds like yours is holding up the same. Got to love a HONDA and no belt. Thanks for watching
Thanks for helping me decide on a Honda 1000-5.
your welcome and glad I could help. You wont be disappointed with your purchase . Awesome machines!
Hey josh I had a notification that I had a comment from you but when I clicked on it, it disappered . The question was if I was near bluff city TN I think? anyways I'm actually right below Knoxville TN. Fell free to send any questions or comments.
I bought the 2021 special edition.
Did put glass windshield,it had everything else I needed. Thinking of making it road legal . It has never let me down"great sxs, and no belt.
They are excellent machines and I don't know what I would do without mine. I agree on the No belt. lol. Thanks for the comment and watching.
One negative I would add is the weight, not because it hurts the performance because there's plenty of power for this type of utility SXS, but because it makes it tough to fit in the super light 7000lbs toy haulers. A 10 foot garage never expected to cram so much capability in it.
I too was thinking skid plate upgrade but I don't want to add more weight. Not just weight of skid plate but weight of all the accumulated trapped dirt that adds up so fast. I like the quickly removable, light factory "skid plate". Maybe consider adding armor to wheel well area and other vulnerable stick puncture areas instead.
I also appreciate your explanation of use of winch causing enough voltage sag that the DCT can't function right. Most people drive and winch at same time for control. Guess I am adding a little more fixed weight.
Good point on the weight. My 2018 from factory with no extras is over 1700 lbs wet.. I hadn't thought much about the weight and room issues with a toyhauler. I have heard Another negative point would be the cage height also for toy haulers... I'm really torn on the skid plates and you just brought up a valid point on the accumulated mud. I was not taking that into consideration on a purchase but I will add it to the list... I have been thinking about just making removable rock sliders and fender well guards like you described in your comment. Something that will at least stop a stick or rock coming through the floor. Might be another DIY video down the road on that. lol.... You wont regret the dual battery it just adds some piece of mind and its like insurance for you clutch. Thanks for sharing your comments and insight on some issues that I'm sure a lot of us hadn't thought about.
Ive owned a Pioneer 1000-5 Limited, and the biggest issues we had was rough ride, heat, lack of rear seating space, and the noise. Build quality was great, power was great, reliability was great.
Thank you for the comment. Those are several complaints I hear pretty often on the pioneer. Also the same on the positives of the pioneer. Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching
I have a 700-4 pioneer, and the door rattling and lack of doors sealing is mind-numbing. It will be a project this winter to figure out a way to seal the doors and get rid of the rattling. Other than that, the 3 speed in the 700-4 needs to be thrown out and should have a 5 or 6 speed in them.
I agree. Honda could do a lot better job of sealing up the cabs and work on the rattling issue. The 700-4 does need 6 speed transmission. I believe they would sell a lot more 700 if they did. Thanks for watching.
Just got mine this spring and love it. Best all round utv.
Congratulations on your purchase! I couldn't agree more on the best all around utv on the market today.
I have a 2016. 1800 miles. The only thing I do or needed to do is change the oil. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
They are awesome machines! Honda’s are reliable as they come
Thanks for the review, very helpful in my decision process.
Your welcome and thank you for watching. I'm glad this video was useful in your decision. Your gonna love the pioneer
That machine is going to be my retirement gift to me lol. I have a water jug I’ve been putting money in for years and years. I’m pretty sure in 3 more years I should be able to pay cash or close to it for my p1000-5 lol. Oh ya and I will still be keeping my p500 for hunting and ice fishing. I’ve got it all enclosed now. Next will be a heater and she is good to go lol. Almost forgot lol another great video my friend gj!!!
Good to hear from you my friend. Sounds like you got the p500 winter proof. I bet that enclosed cab is going to be nice on a cold day with the heater. Thank you and glad you liked the video. Oh yeah Tennessee has a 3 day velvet hunt it is the 27th thru the 29th. I got a couple bucks pegged for that weekend! I hope! That is if the cooperate. lol. Anyways check back in on us we are gonna get after soon.
Nice video. I'm going to be in the market for one of these in a year or 2. I'm probably going Honda. I have the Rubicon 500 quad and it runs like a champ.
You wont be disappointed with a pioneer. Especially since you have a Honda now. They are the most reliable machines on the market to date. Keep us posted on your future purchase. Thanks you and thanks for watching.
As a Canadian I do love your accent. Spent a a year in SC best people. Oh and you're video was great. Every thing I own that is powered by gas is a HONDA, just got to get the sxs😂
Thank you and our accent can get pretty thick at times. LOL. I'm a firm believer in Honda. There engineering is second to none. Good to hear from you all the way up in Canada. Thank you for watching.
I did take your advise a few years back and hooked the winch up to the factory battery, but everything else ,lights radio and such are wired to a fuse block on the second battery with an isolator. No problems yet.
Good to hear my friend. I have moved my winch over to my secondary battery now. I never had any issues but I just wanted to get everything extra on the second battery. Just in case. But honestly I haven't noticed anything different at all. No issues. Thanks for watching and your continued support
I can tell all of you with certainty that honda makes the best utv because I mechanic at a utv rental resort and all the other brands are just a high priced joke they are unreliable as he'll the honda talon has held up better then the rzr krx x3 mavric trail only other one that may win is the rmax only time will tell but my money is on red change my mind great vid ol bro
Red all the way. Hard to beat Hondas reliability. Thank you for sharing and thanks for watching
I ranch in mt lots of snow and cold we have a 2016 1000 pioneer just turn over to 52000 miles excellent machine it goes everyday
That’s impressive. No one can beat the reliability of a Honda. Thanks for sharing
Good review, right in line with my take on mine. Kenny
Thank you Kenny! They are great machines.
Hey, uncle Jamie I am planning to start my channel soon. Nice video by the way, love y’all.
Hey buddy, Sounds good on the channel. Wont be long till deer season is up and running. Thank you and Look forward to filming some stuff this fall. Love you bud!
I've had excellent luck using Tire Ject in my atv and utv tires. Great stuff.
I had never heard of tire ject until I seen your comment. Looked it up and did some research and It looks like a impressive product. I will be ordering some to try. Thanks for sharing.
@@pineylife I follow Onelonelyfarmer on here. He put this tuff in a quad tire and shot it with a .22. Sealed itself. I knew i needed to try it. Hasn't let me down yet.
Now that's impressive! Im gonna check it out for sure.
Great video!! I couldn't help but notice how much you sound like Donnie Baker. lol
Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I like ole Donnie so i consider that a compliment. lol. My accent get pretty thick at times.
@@pineylife By no means was it an insult at all!! He has a recognizable voice and yours is pretty darned close! By the way, I do not own a Honda... YET. Its on the list in the next 30 days or so. I just cant decide if I want the Pioneer, or the talon 1000x4. I got some grandbabies that will want to take rides on the farm, so an upgrade from the 4 wheeler has got to happen.
I was thinking hood rack. They have a large selection to choose from. Wondering what is your thoughts on it?
I have never purchased one or installed one by they are cool and hold a lot of stuff. The o ly reason I haven’t is because of getting to the hood . Honestly they might be handy if my light bar was mounted higher up.
There's a guy on RUclips out of Texas that does a steel tailgate stiffener and leveling kit that I put on mine thats done phenomenal job for the tailgate. A must have in my opinion
Thank you for sharing. I will look him up. That is one item that is on my list also.
@@pineylife His youtube channel and website is called Tradinghouse Outdoors. I have it on my pioneer and it was money very well spent. 👍👍
@@JoshSmith-vj3yb Thank you. I will check it out. Sounds like a good quality product.
@@pineylife with you using your pioneer for hunting and working like I do. It's a must have.
Spot on review, I basically have the same list of complaints about my 2020 Pioneer 1000-5. From you're video's I gather I need to install the DI kit to help with the overwhelming engine heat problem in the drivers compartment. I'd like to ask if your kit helped to cut down on some of the massive dust cloud that also seems to build in the driver's compartment, or just a heat fix?
Thank you. I believe every pioneer owner relates to our problem. LOL. The Kit is a must for summer time riding. It did not help with the dust issue but the fabric back mid panel almost eliminates the dust issue. Kit helps keep the dust down big time. Check out my pioneer playlist on my channel. I have a Honda genuine fabric mid back panel and a kemimoto fabric mid panel video. They are a must for trail riding. I have the product listed in the description of the video's. Thank you for the support of my channel and if there is anything I can help you with please let me know.
i'll be looking for the skid plate video. looking at options now for mine.
Larry. I have been looking real hard at the UHMV style skid plates. I love the look of aluminum and the almost puncture resistance material but they are also known to bend and be real loud when something hits it.(which I'm not crazy about due to hunting! LOL). The UHMV Style skid plates are easier to slide over objects , They are thicker and tend to reshape back to its normal form after being hit or almost punctured. Now the aluminum UHMV coated are AWESOME ! but they come with a hefty price.
Great honest review!
Thank you, Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching.
Got a 1000 5 .Has been in and out Off The Melbourne Dealer for service power steering power light.comes.on been in out five or six times they can't figure it out they blamed it on water damage never done no water damage on my bike
TY for the video Sir!
Your welcome and thank you for watching
Another great video !!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
You touched base on the bed rattle, and mentioned a video on it. How can I look that up? Because the bed rattle is very annoying.
It’s on my pioneer playlist. Here’s the link to it. Honda pioneer 1000 bed rattle fix. How to video or diy with parts list!

Do you wish you had the Fox shocks? Or is there much difference between the stock shock vs the fox shocks? Trying to see if the fox shocks are worth the $ on the new trail model
I have road in a pioneer that had fox shocks and it was considerably more comfortable on rough trails. The only reason I haven't installed a set yet is for #1 price. #2im not sure how well they would perform with me using mine for more of a hauling and pulling machine part of the time. I do intend on trying a set but probably not till next year.
@@pineylife thanks for the info and I enjoy your videos thanks for the help
We have a trail edition it’s awesome 2023
The new trail editions are awesome machines. Congrats on your purchase and thanks for watching
thanks for sharing, I am on the market for one and trying to find comparison vs can-am and Polaris.
They all are great machines. For me it was the Honda. Mainly just reliability and no belt. The can am runs a close second for me. But this machine has been perfect for me and what it do. Keep us posted on what you end up with.
great video as always brother! you touched on it briefly, but it was THE selling point for me - the convertible rear seat. i needed space sometimes for 3 kids, but also wanted a bed to carry gear and materials when i needed it.
i didnt want a 6 seater with a long wheel base. up here in new england, the trails can get tight, and making sharp turns and quick elevation change with a long wheel base is a no-go.
my question for you is - why hasn't polaris or can-am caught on and made their own convertible rear seat? does honda have it patent protected that well?
From what I have found out and talking to the dealers is. Honda has a patent That will not allow anyone to copy there idea for 7 years with a extension of 3 more years if they want. Can am and Polaris both have the 6 seaters which is more targeted towards the construction, farming, and ranching market. But also works great for recreational use also. In my opinion I believe that when the patent law gets the easement. Can am and Polaris will do a normal wheel base model in at least a 4 seat stow away design. I agree 100 percent with you. A huge selling point was the stow and go seats. Super nice if you need to haul someone or flip them down for a full bed. I have the same need as you do, here in Tennessee these mountain trails can be tight and a long utv was not a option. Hunting and trail riding the normal wheel base was a must.
Great video! You sold me on getting one! Can you put a overhead rack on the hard top? Maybe a basket type?
Thank you, Glad that our videos may have helped you in some way. You wont regret buying that machine that's for sure. I have not seen a basket or safari style rack for them yet but I will look into it. Maybe there is a company that makes them or maybe even some DIY stuff out there. If I find anything I will get back with you. Also if you find one please comment back.
noticed you have your strip light mounted at bottom of windscreen, do you get a shadow from your hood? would it be better at top of windscreen
I have never noticed a shadow on my hood . The main reason I put it at the bottom was do to i retrieve deer and do some woods riding where there is a lot of limbs our stuff hanging down that would hit the light bar. Also it is super easy and sturdy to mount it at the bottom where the cage bolts together. No issues with the top or roof. Its very handy and easy to see over. That light bar really puts the light out too
Great review. Need more LEDs. 😄
Thank you. Yeah I might have to cram a few more on it. LOL. Thanks for watching
Yes absolutely I agree with what you're saying about the small things on the pioneer I've been a Honda man my entire life from the 350 d to the 500 Rubicon 2002 Goldwing F6B non-dct got to have a clutch me lots of research on the Yamaha rmx 4 seater and the Honda Pioneer 5 and I ended up with the Yamaha XTR the trail sport mode takes out all that bucking that that Honda was doing the seating comfort way overbuilt suspension Fox shocks comes with the roof 14 inch aluminum alloy wheels the adventure Pro for navigation the e-brake shifting center console floorboard lights overall bit to finish it made my decision and being that Yamaha has the ultramatic 10-year warranty on the Belt and it comes with 29-in carnivores 14-in rims 14 inches of ground clearance I just feel like Honda's falling behind they've had plenty of time to be right up there with Yamaha
Sounds like your Yamaha has a ton of options that the Honda don’t. I could have got the fox shocks but I would have had to by the limited edition and I wasn’t paying another $5000 dollars for a few small options that I could add later on. They have stepped there game up with no belt but lacked in other areas. Congratulations on your purchase it sounds like a awesome machine. Thanks for sharing.
Just bought a pioneer 1000 5 where's good pl to get roof just couldn't see paying dealer 800 for roof
Congrats on your purchase you are gonna love your machine. The soft tops are super affordable on amazon but if your looking for a hard top they can get super expensive. Alot of people are getting metal shops to form them one. I will look and see what I can find for you
Are you in van buren county? I used to lived there. Was a community called piney.
No we are in Loudon Co. South east Tennessee. It surprised me how many places are called piney in Tennessee. There is actually a river called the piney river down in Hickman , Dickson Tennessee area also. I have some friends I have acquired since I started this channel that have bought several decals and hats from me with the Piney Life brand since the area they live in is called piney. Its a small world.
We just purchased a honda pioneer special addition. We had a ranger and things seem to be cheaply made compared to my freinds pioneer. Also we know a guy that is retired and has a 2016 p5 with 62000m on it. Thats right 62000m not 6200. So factoring all that when it come to purchasing a new bike we where staring at the honda pioneer
You will love your purchase. Honda makes a awesome machine. I love mine. That’s impressive on your friends pioneer. Honda is reliable as they get
Would love to know your thoughts on the folding seats
They are a very cool concept and do come in handy at times but they are very uncomfortable for adults on long rides. They sit real low so kids cant see out very good. I have found that the terrain seat from pur pro is a very nice addition to help with seat height and comfort also the seat pads they offer stacked up is very comfortable too.
Check out Rad Customs. They make a seat plate that you can bolt a Polaris seat to it. I have two guys in the back all the time when we are hunting. They are so comfortable, say that its better than riding up front. True stadium seating.
@@waynegray453 Thank you for the tip. I seen a video not long ago about a polaris seat conversion for the pioneer. Iw ill look into that. Thanks again
Great informative video, I bought a 22 deluxe. I seen on another video they took boat cushions and used them for the back seats. They work great, plus I have the stock Honda plastic roof. When not using boat cushions, you can slide them between the roll bar and plastic roof. They hold real good. Even when hauling down the road at 65 to 70 mph. They never fell out.
@@williamwayand237 thanks for sharing that info. That’s a pretty neat storage idea for those boats seats. That’s what I love about these video comments. We can all learn from one another. Thanks again and thanks for watching.
Thank you
Your welcome and thank you for watching
Does the hood get in the way of the lightbar shining down in front?
No not at all. It doesn't obstruct my view or have a glare over the front end. The bar projects out in front of the side x side so there's no shadow areas. I love mine, especially on trails in the woods at night.
@@pineylife perfect! Thanks. I have exact pioneer you have. We love it. Didn't want to put lightbar on top because of tree limbs.
@@dougsteinard7218 they are awesome machines. You and I think a like. That’s the exact reason I put mine at the bottom and it has worked perfectly so far.
How is the noise in this machine can you hear yourself think when you're driving it and talk to somebody else without screaming
When it had the bighorn 2.0 on it if you was driving at a high rate of speed you had to scream at the passenger but once I put the Terrabites on it. You can talk to your passenger at a high rate of speed. Cut the sound in half.
Great video
Thank you my friend and thanks for watching
I find my pioneer five seater very dusty in dry weather, is there a solution out there.
a lot of people add the rear fabric panel to the rear of the Pioneer and that really cuts down on the amount of dust. I actually have the mid fabric panel on my pioneer and I helps to keep the cabin clean but the bed takes on a lot of dust without the rear panel. Her is the link for the mid panel- amzn.to/3qpF4Vl here is the link for the rear - amzn.to/3JicFcv . Some people have got creative and fund some windscreen type material with designs on them but I haven't seen one that last a long time. Let me know if you need anymore info
🏆🏆🏆👍🇺🇲🙏
Love my heat kit and vent extensions from buyyourownbeer eBay, Throttle Maxx, RB3 bushings, Hillbilly parking brake.
I have Interco 28x10-14 920 Sniper 8 ply DOT approved. And, Super ATV Intimidators 28x10-14. Both sets on MSA 14x7 10mm offset wheels. No spacers no lift no rubbing. And Mudbusters fender flares. And backup camera. Love the OTRATTW switches.
And Warn VRX 4500 with wireless remote with holder on dash.
I have Armor Tech steel roof, glass windshield, rear bumper, and steel rear panel with sliding window.. D-Rings on front and rear.
And, Element-50 fire extinguisher. Lights like a flare. Works for over 50 seconds and compared to a 5 lb bottle for 5 seconds. Fumes are non toxic to inhale, and it's a gas, no chemical residue to damage entertaining electronics , wires or robber hoses or components.
Thank you for sharing
Wow now that's a list of parts. There is several items on your utv that I am interested in looking at! Vent extensions , mud busters , fire extinguisher and the back up camera just to name a few. I will be checking them out. Thank you for sharing.
Great info. I'm on the fence. Most machines are either too sport focused or too utility. The concern I have is the bench seat. Wish it had more padding and had some adjustment. I'm wondering how rough on the butt/back the P1000-5 is on the trail at speed.. crawling on soft ground is quite different than going down a dirt back road full of pits and bumps.
Thank you. I have road mine for long distances and never had a issue. I agree that soft trails are different than rough roads ,especially at a higher speed but even at windrock park in Tennessee, I had absolutely no issues with comfort. Now I have seat covers on mine also that helps with the butt sweat and uncomfortable ride or as we call it (monkey butt)lol. The seat covers take away that issue. I drove both bucket style utvs and bench, to me the bench is easier on the rear. Of course shocks and suspension play a big part comfort also.
What size Terrabite tires did you get?
front are 27 x 9.00 x r14 and rears are 27 x11.00 x r14.
Only con is the seating I wish we could fit 3 in the rear without the middle bar
Agreed! Piney and I were thinking of using a golf cart bench seat to bride the middle bar
Good point. That's also a issue. Still working on a rear seat design that I hope will materialize in a fix for the rear seat issue. stay tuned
Do you wish you had gotten the one with the fox shocks?
They are on my list for my pioneer but the reason I didn’t buy the limited was because it was a $7000 price difference plus they didn’t have it in camo. Lol. The fox shocks have came down some in price . The q3 fox shocks for pioneer 1000 are around $1700 and Amazon’s even carrying them. So to answer your question yes I won’t the ride of the fox shocks but no I would have paid Honda the extra money.
Can one of these beasts pull a medium sized 10 ft log? I've read they can pull a lot of weight.
I would say it would no problem. I have used mine pulling cullapackers, harrow disk, trailers, logs, and other side x sides. They are beast.
@@pineylife any idea how well it does in deep snow? Say more than 2ft deep?
Just bought a 21 deluxe have put 80 miles on it so far is there anything u recommend?? I should do to the machine
Congrats on your purchase. Its really according to what you are gonna use it for. Windshield and top is a must no matter what your gonna do with your machine. If your gonna add a bunch of accessories I would recommend the tru dual battery system , a fuse block and ground block. If your gonna just add a few electric devices like a radio and light bar I wouldn't worry to much about the dual battery. One item that i really get alot of use out of is my underdash storage. Very useful.
I bought the Throttle Max and it definitely dampened the jump and buck.
I have heard really good reviews on them. Thanks for sharing and looks like throttle max is on my list! lol
havent tried it yet myself, been hesitant because of the cost (why $90 for a small hinge?) and now they arent being sold in black. some guys on the hondasxs forum rigged up a door hinge from the hardware store at a fraction of the price. might try that some day!
@@bencote2219 it is basically a reconfigured barn door strap hinge and it could easily be duplicated. It’s overpriced but it definitely works as advertised.
Ben, Now that's a Idea. I have a buddy that has one. I will get some dimensions off of it and see what I can come up with.
How loud is the 1000 compared to the 700
in my opinion they are about the same. But the 1000 isn't as loud under full throttle or under a load as the 700
can this be street legal New Jersey
Every state is different on what they will consider street legal. In Tennessee it has to have headlights (low and high beam), taillights, brake lights, turn signals, horn, side mirrors, rear view mirrors. once you have all of that you can apply for a mid speed tag which means you can drive on any road that is 45 mph or less. You will have to check your DMV and see what the requirements are for your state to allow a mid speed tag or street legal plate
I have a 13000 miles on mine no problem’s
That's a true testament to quality and reliability right there. Thanks for sharing.
Cool beans. 🙃
Thank you and thanks for watching
Love mine made it street legal
They are awesome machines and making them street legal makes them so much more useful. Thanks for watching
Just gets done complaining about all the rattles all over, then says they are top quality machines. I understand what he means, but having a lot of rattle noises shows lower quality, not necessarily lower reliability, but shows they cut corners on some areas they really shouldn't.
Thanks for your input. Its pretty obvious that they cut corners and I do hate the rattles. I have multiple videos on what I have tried to fix on that issue also another valid point is the dual battery molded spot under the hood (For a second battery) That they should have added a second battery or at least made it a option.
Now, On the positive side, the reliability of the drive train and the running part of the machine is what I was trying to point out on the top quality. I have worked on many machines ands I still stand by the Honda on drive train reliability.
Interesting on your channel name. I had to go look it up.
Thanks for your input and Thanks for watching
@@pineylife it was a very good and well rounded video, and I understood what you meant about quality, it just sounded funny. I drive Hondas as well, and know there reliability is unmatched, but as you pointed out, there are areas that they do cut short and could do better, nothing that would make me not buy them, but just little annoyances. Thank you for the reply, and I hope it didn't come across that I didn't like the video, because I really did. Keep up the good work.
@@Acts258 Thank you. No worries. Sometimes I think I have a hard time getting my point across or explaining myself in videos. Lol. Thanks for the watching and supporting my channel.
You’ll never be running all your lights & power accessories at one time to run a second battery.
Good point. But I have a winch on the front and one in the bed. When Im using a winch And watching my volt meter there is a hard draw on the battery. Me personally running a winch and lights I dont want to take a chance but I do see your point. Thank your for your input and for watching
