p500

Hello friends, There is very little information on the web about how the Pioneer 500 performs in the sand dunes. Rightfully so - nobody is buying the Pioneer 500 as a dune-machine. However, I spent a full day enjoying legitimate sand dunes in my 2018 Pioneer 500 and I will be posting some...

As the title says, I tested the flight capabilities of our little 2018 Pioneer 500 this past Wednesday. It was fun! Nothing broke...no one got hurt...but the landing was a little rough. :) I measured where the tires left the sand to where they touched down = 36 ft. There, now you don't have to...

Does anyone have a recommendation for a compact or micro CB radio they are running in their rig? There are a lot of options out there but very few of them are waterproof. And from what I have read, it is "illegal" to use a marine radio from land!?! Looking for something stronger than the...

Made another nature trip to Montana, but only got to watch elk. Couldn't get a shot. Weather wasn't the best. We had everything from heavy rain to blizzard conditions, but little actual snow. Anyway, couple things I've learned over the years with my P500: Bring a cover with you. It will attract...

Stumbled across this mod by @jay_man81 AMR post, nice deeper sound like the old baffle cut out on motorcycles. Sharing the link to his forum post with video. (Just when I thought I was done with mods!). By keeping the spark arrestor screen, just wondering if it would be OK with US forest...

Hello Honda SxS friends. This past Saturday we purchased a new 2018 Pioneer 500 and named it Rambo. This thread will contain a video/photo log of our adventures and experiences with Rambo. Call it...an ownership experience thread. I'll be using my YouTube channel "Southwest ORV" to host the...

Not sure of battery location on all pioneers but the P500 is a pain to access for trickle charging. Here’s what I did to make life easier. Noco G7200 smart charger and noco GC016 dash mount monitor and charge port, both available fro Amazon as well as other suppliers. Here’s the dash unit...

I’m the owner of a P500 so I usually post in that category, but a close friend has a P700 and on this particular ride we took both machines, so I’m posting here this time. Steep, narrow, rocky, twisting...

Here are a few pictures of my recent P500 adventure in north Idaho

Just bought a Pioneer 500 and want to save money by doing the maintenance yourself? Here is how simple and easy it is to change the differential fluid on the mightly little side by side.

Trial fit between front roll cage and OEM roof too tight. Already have music radio in Glove box. Any examples? Was trying to mount it to minimize direct spray when washing, but under dash by 12v plug seems ideal. Maybe 12v socket plug for quick removal? Also looking for antenna mount...

Getting a lot of mods done on my 17' P5 and tires/aluminum wheels are next (most-likely next month). So of course I have nearly burnt up google and this forum reading and watching reviews on a TON of tires. For my needs I want an all around tire that's at least decent riding on trails but that I...

Hey all, I'm hoping to hear some input from the people who have installed air shocks and have significant miles/hours on them. I've read the install threads and initial opinion threads, but looking for guidance from those with a lot of miles/hours on their shocks. I have some questions if any...

It has been about a week and 1/2 since I did my first ride on the P500. I usually wait a bit until the excitement calms down and I can do an honest and fair review. So I will do my best. The reason I write these is so others can get honest info when doing their research prior to buying. But...

The video is a bit jumpy as the gopro was mounted to the rear rack of my friends foreman. But, I thought it was a nice example of how well the P500 gets through tighter trails. The obnoxious noise in the background is the flag on the Foreman flopping around.

What is the best storage box options for the rear rack of the P500. I have a small Plano box zip tied on there now, but i could use a little more room. Thanks, Gary

So after removing the swaybars from both p500s we decided to get some video of them in different situations. At the end of the video we nearly took a drink with the p1000.

Thanks to this video I was able to make 2 snorkels for my son and his friends p500. You can see my pictures and video here. I still need to seal the air box door with silicone and snorkel the vent lines.

Yesterday I ordered my 13 year old son. P500. We have 2 weeks on our P1000 and love it. He wanted a blue one so we took a 2017 and ordered the blue plastic to replace all the green. Should be ready next week. As cheap as the plastic is I think Honda should offer different colors. I know my...
