P500 520 Ordered!

[jroot327]

Never mind, they sold the 2021, they only have a 2020 500. Sorry for false info. They do have a 700, and a 1k though.

Thanks for the info. What dealer? I'm not far from the IL/WI border.

Harbor Town Honda/Harley Davidson/Polaris.
It’s in Manitowoc. Decent guys to deal with so far.

So is the 520 out now? Ive seen a couple members post that they've seen them or have one. I talked to my local (Ohio) dealerships and they claim they won't be out until January or later.

I have tried to find out what the speed limiter setting is on the new 520. Dealer says they don't know and I can't find any info on the Honda website. Does anyone know if it is the sorry 39mph limit as on the 500 or if Honda upped it a bit to 45 or 50. I do a lot of trail/gravel/blacktop road driving here in northeaster Wisconsin and the 39mph limit is a hazard when on 55mph speed limit county roads. That being said --if you get as much enjoyment out of your new 520 as I get out of my 500--you will be a happy owner.

Unless they changed the gearing,you probably won't see a speed increase.The motor is pretty much at it's rpm limit in the 500's when the speed limiter kicks in.

Well I know this. Its a Honda so you have the reliable part covered. Any idea when your dealer said yours would be in. Mine was 2/28.

January-March delivery. I bought it from a small Mom & Pop store in So. Cal.

Hey Santa,
I took my P520 out this morning and ran it full out for the first time, i did see the speedo reach 40(64km/h) but it quickly limited itself to 38-39mph(60-62km/h). Been too busy to take it out on a proper ride but hopefully soon.

It looks like Canada has them before us. A local dealer here says he is slated to get his first one in early January.

Dealer said mine's scheduled to arrive January 29th.

Are there aftermarket parts availible for the 520 pioneers? Can you use the 500 pioneers aftermarket parts?

Bet the locker and power steering would work. Best mods IMO along with a @trigger shield.
