Axle nut caps/covers??

[brando4905]

Hey Guys and Gals!! New owner of a Pioneer 2 here, I love this thing!

I have noticed that my machine doesn't have axle nut/hub caps. Do any of yours have them? I'm seeing pics online of some that do and some that don't.

Mine does not. Only ones I've seen that do where after market rims.

10-4, Chester. I've called my dealer, and asked them to check with Honda, to see if they are supposed to be on the Pioneer. I have a feeling they were just forgotten on the assembly line, because in the owner's manual under changing the tire, the image shows the "hub caps" on it. But, then again, this may be one of the reasons Honda was able to sell us these cheaper than a Ranger.

Same here.

But I know how to fix that!

Yeah....I wish I had taken them off my Rancher before trading. :twisted:

Looking at the parts fish. It does not show it as an available part.
Looking at the Honda's website, Some of the 700-4 pictures show caps. The 700-2 does not. Also the 360 deg pictures for both the 2 & 4 do not show caps
I guess that's what they mean by "Pre-Production Model Shown".
Oh well. I think I will be looking into ordering some.

I tried one from my rancher. They are way too big fyi

Ones off a Rincon fit but they are a bit loose. Need to be just a few mm's bigger to keep them tight.

wonder if the caps off a big red will work ? anybody know ?

I just ordered some from the Honda dealer to go my 2 seater pioneer. the dealer said when he looked the caps up that it said the big red caps to cover the axle nut would fit the pioneer and they cost less than 3 dollars a piece so I have a set on the way but they are on back order. so to answer this the big red axle nut caps will fit the new pioneer.

thanks tbaker i saw that motosport has them in stock for 1.56 each

OK, The Pioneer does not come with the axle caps.
The ones off of the Big Red will fit. I just got mine today. They fit real nice and you do not have to take the wheel off to install.
They are made of rubber, Sure makes the factory wheel look better.
The part number is 44732-HL1-A00. They retail for $3.00 each. My salesman paid for them for me.

You are welcome, Not sure why Honda did not install theses in the first place.
