Super atv rhino axles for Pioneer 700

Hey guys, I just emailed super atv yesterday about when and if they would be offering rhino axles for the pioneer. For those that don't know, rhino axles is the brand name of the axle and has nothing to do with the Yamaha rhino! Anyway they told me rear axles would be available next week sometime and front axles "hopefully" next month. Just wanted to let everyone know as this is something I've been on the lookout for for awhile. Not because I break stock axles just because I like to know my drivetrain is bulletproof!

Still nothing on super atv's website. I'm checking often and ill post when they appear

Just an update- Emailed super atv again and they told me parts would be on the website "very soon". Not quite sure what that means so just keeping fingers crossed.

That's the plan if they will ever get them up on their website!

Big news! The wait is over, super atv has rhino axles for the pioneer (front and rear) available for purchase on the website, $200 per axle!

I thought I would post the product description, as I found it informative-



Honda Pioneer 700 Heavy Duty Axle
Will Fit:
Honda Pioneer 700 : 2014+
Honda Pioneer 700-4 : 2014+

To ensure the highest quality and performance, Rhino Brand Axles are made from Heavy-Duty 4340 Chromoly Steel, one of the industry’s strongest materials. This creates an excellent strength-to-weight ratio for these heavy-duty axles. Along with being significantly stronger than other axles, Rhino Brand Axles can operate at huge angles. Generally after a lift kit or larger tires are added OEM axles are not up to the task of handling the added pressure. This often leads to the weakening and eventual breakage of the axles. Rhino Brand Axles are engineered to have larger shafts and CVs making them able to handle these extreme angles. Not only can they handle the angle pressure, Rhino Brand Axles perform exceptionally well under the stress of high-powered motors and aggressive tires. These axles have proven themselves again and again and can withstand the test of the most intense riding.

Axle orientation is the same as if you are sitting in the bike. (Driver's side is left, Passenger side is right).

We offer a 1 year warranty on all RHINO Brand axles.

I found another axle option, thought I'd share-
Demon Heavy Duty Axles for Honda Pioneer 700 / 700 4: SideBySideStuff.com

They are available for the 500 as well. Don't know if they're any better than the rhinos but nice to have options that are priced nearly the same. I'm thinking of doing this upgrade in stages. Do the rear first then the front or maybe the other way around, can't decide which end needs them more. Maybe the front then I could run 4 wheel lock and not have to be careful! What do you guys think?

It's mostly a preventative measure. The rhinos are stronger and capable of handling extreme angles. Once we lift our machines, add power, and start adding larger tires, we are asking the stock axles to do things they weren't designed to do. With all that said, the stock axles have proven to be quite durable, with only a few reports of breakage (usually in 4 wheel lock). Maybe I would never break a stock one, but as I continue to modify my machine I don't want to have to wonder.....and I DONT want to find out 50 miles from my truck!!
