There is a rumor floating around. Something "new" is coming for 17. Just not sure if it is for the 500, 700, or 1000. Not a new model... Only updates!Anyone heard if there are going to be any changes to the Pioneer 1000 for 2017??
I was hoping they would change the gearing in the tranny to help deal with the current clutch issues some are having.There is a rumor floating around. Something "new" is coming for 17. Just not sure if it is for the 500, 700, or 1000. Not a new model... Only updates!
Well this patent filed on 3/24/2016 which is a revision / improvement of a patent design filed 8/24/2014. Not sure if it applies to the P1000 but on page 18 of that PDF it talks about a revised DCT cover that ADDS an oil temp sensor that does not exist on the current model and moving the oil pressure senor closer to the piston that controls the dual clutches.... : Honda 1000 Engine Patents - 20160082833I was hoping they would change the gearing in the tranny to help deal with the current clutch issues some are having.
Thanks.Monday 18th at 12:01am pst. I'm thinking it's just going to be a offroad bikes. Their set to release sxs/atv info in the fall, including a new multipurpose model.
I'll post whatever happens as soon as I see it on Monday to this thread. Like I said I don't think any sxs stuff will drop till fall.Subscribed
Your opinion uses lots of intelligence.Well this patent filed on 3/24/2016 which is a revision / improvement of a patent design filed 8/24/2014.

This could mean between relocating the pressure sensor and the addition of the oil temp sensor perhaps they can better regulate the oil pressure applied to the clutches, that in my theory should improve the holding pressure or closing speed of the R, 1,3,5 starting clutch. On my unit when I give it more pedal it doesn't slip, drive it easy it slips. IE more RPM = more pressure as it and the anomaly seemingly goes away from a seat of the pants standpoint, but I have no science to support it, just my opinion. We will see.
Not to sure if there is a problem with the gearing !!I was hoping they would change the gearing in the tranny to help deal with the current clutch issues some are having.
Not to sure if there is a problem with the gearing !!
ESPECIALLY REVERSE! That's one complaint from me I wish low was separatedIt would be nice if low range and reverse were geared lower. High range is perfect in my opinion.
