FULL-TILT CUSTOM CHASSIS UTV USING HONDA PIONEER 1000 DRIVETRAIN

Posted on April 11, 2017

“Let me start by answering the question: why?

Nothing against any of the product out on the market, I just wanted my own project. With ‘me being me’, I can’t leave anything alone. I saw a hole in what was available in the SXS market, and I wanted to build something different, something that some OE should be building. Besides- it was a great therapy project!

I talked over my idea with my long-time friend, Russ Wernimont, who is arguably the original innovator behind the modern day Trophy Trucks. Russ and I have built a few toys in the past, including a Rotary powered mid-engine long travel sand car back before long travel sand rails existed. He was between projects, had some design ideas from a Military project he was working on, and was highly interested in building something SXS related.

Looks stupid. I'd take a stock p1000 over that thing.

The body is kinda funky, but the big problem is I bought a Pioneer for riding with my boys. I need 4 seats. I bet the powertrain is a blast in a smaller lighter rig with more suspension though.

I showed this to mama, agreed the body is dumb. I love the dash and the long travel. Really would love a manual option like the Africa twin

It's got the shifters mode switch is probably located out of frame

I rode with you driving a manual. Kinda scary! Lol

Well at least they got it out of the trailer HaHa

 

[Plumber32]

This isn't really a Pioneer. Just the motor, and shifters. Different every thing else lol.

Hey now, gotta give me a few miles to get used to it. Considering I haven't driven a stick shift pickup in a decade I think I did pretty good! Lol

Looks like a stretched old school bug. Didn't like the bug and don't like this. Give me the money they spent on this and I will buy two Pioneers. One for everyday use and one I will beat to death.
