Took our family out for a 60 mile ride in our new (1 mile on odo) 1000-5 yeasterday afternoon and we were very impressed with the machine. We sold a 2016 Kawasaki Teryx 4 LE to get into the 1000-5 and we are very happy with our decision. The Teryx was so loud and so hot (even at mellow family speeds) it wasn’t fun for us to ride. We had it for 2 years and barely had 200 miles on it, which was mostly me solo. Compared to the Teryx this 1000-5 was so much nicer to ride. We could actually carry on a conversation without yelling at each other and compared to the Teryx there was very little heat in the front or back seats. IMO the suspension on the Honda was also smoother on the same trails. The wife and kids (and dogs) were way more comfortable than we ever were in the Teryx.
Thought I would add a quick comparison for anyone wondering how the Honda compares to the Kawasaki. Hoping the Honda will give us many years of trouble free fun. Looking forward to learning more about it here on this forum!
