Just curious poll. Seen many posts on owners choice to go with a SxS, many of whom switched to or added a SxS after ATV/motorcycle. With me it was age, a desire to ride together, and a good fit of a machine for what I wanted. 10 motorcycles, 3 wheeler and ATVs, and FJ 40 in past.

Some good stories and posts here, thanks to all for participating!

I would have bought a p500 10 years ago,but Honda didn't make it then. It's exactly what I wanted. I am glad I have a motorcycle to fill my need for speed.

I managed to miss ATV's altogether. Did motorcycles when younger. Now hunting drove my need/desire for a P500. I was 58 when I saw the light.

Hunting with a p500 is awesome,so much better and safer than a quad. Motorcycles are fun but when it's muddy or cold they suck.

I was 53 when I bought mine,I bought it for 2 main reasons, first I'm getting to old to plow snow with an atv, I could plow with the my truck , but doin g it with the sxs is so much more fun. Second reason is my wife has arthritis and carpel tunnel in her wrists so she can no longer drive an atv, with the sxs she can ride shot gun and enjoy the ride.

I was 63 when we got ours... Back in the day I was racing all kinds of off-road stuff. We always had a street bike and have toured all over the western states and Canada on a Goldwing. With the SxS I am able to get back out in the woods and take my wife with me.

48 when I switched from quad, after rolling quad with kids on back twice decided I needed a roll cage. I would also take risks on the ATV I shouldn't have and if I roll over now I have a seatbelt and cage. Originally wanted a Can am commander 1000 but they were noisy and hot and on my tight trails the speed didn't matter. For the ATV size trails I ride and for hunting in Eastern KY and WV the P500 is perfect. Youth deer season is tomorrow hope to post a picture of it with a deer on the hitch haul.

Mid 40’s when I bought my first SxS period. Never had a quad, a motorcycle, scooter, 3 wheeler either. Closest I came was owning 2 jeeps in HS and college.

I was 23. I am stationed in Alaska and wanted to be able to take any guests that visited me out into the last frontier. I was also thinking about my near future when I have kids. Also, kind of a necessity when your hunting trip is a week plus long and you are bringing home a moose

41 years old bought a P1k5. I had 4 wheelers from age 11-31. Had a 10 year gap since we started having kids and didn't ride much. My son is 9 now and likes to hunt so we needed a vehicle. Planned on a sxs for a while but Honda didn't have one I liked. When the p1k5 came out I knew it was for me!
