The only thing with that is that once they get to the dealers, Honda will not only have to send the appropriate parts to be warrantied, but will also have to pay labor rates for whatever techs had to install the new parts... I'm sure they want to keep as much money in their pockets as possible.. can you blame them?
I don't blame them. Although the they must be preped for sale on arrival anyways. Seems minor. No unboxing/unstacking at warehouse. Sooner sold sooner honda make cash.
IDK.

Any reports of Pioneers being loaded on trucks? They should be getting staged about now.

I spoke with my dealer yesterday and she confirms that the delays were and are due to the storm and flooding in SC. As of yesterday her order statement still held for the 19th. There is another thread talking about the roads being in really bad shape affecting builds and delivery. I sure hope the wheels of commerce find a way to keep on turning, but I'm worried....Again.....

I was at the Fryeburg Fair today in Fryeburg Maine...Maines largest fair...I asked a Honda dealer there about the P1000...he said they(Honda) releases the promotion about the 1000 then doesn't produce the product for the consumer...He wasn't thrilled with Honda....He said he's had a lot of folks asking..'where is IT ???"....

Honda made sure they perfected their unit before shipping. That's why there were so many trial rides. Would you rather have something that you KNOW will be 100%, or buy something that you might own for a few months before the first recall comes out? Honda puts millions of dollars in their R&D - and that's why their products stand the test of time.
If the warranty is only 6 months why would I buy it now?? I live in CO and probably couldn't ride it much past Thanksgiving and then not until May. Warranty would be expired. Not a rocket scientist but that wouldn't be very smart.

the warranty is one year - and doesn't go into effect until the day your unit is delivered to you.

I was at my dealer Monday getting the plow and mount for my 700-4, hoping for another good deep snow winter here in my WV hills.

I was picking the guys brains on the 1000's and apparently last word they recieved was that they will get it on Oct. 27.

One salesman that was able to go to the test drive day, immediately went home cleaned his 700 up, brought it to the dealer and put a for sale sign on it, he really liked the 1000.

Just think of how you would feel if you took one of those models home then everyone on the forum received there pioneer 1000 and starting putting pics and videos on the forum LOL

As of last week my new machine is still on schedule for delivery the 19th. Now that means the dealer will be getting it around that date and I will have to wait a few days for it to be readied for pickup. I have an email in to her this morning trying to get any updates she may have but I have not heard back yet. This forum is usually pretty accurate and informative and since I haven't read of any more delays, I expect that delivery date is still good. As I have said, the week of the 19th or maybe the week following, this board will light up with news and pics of our P1K's. I will certainly let everyone know when I have mine at home.

Oh im waiting lol I currently have a 2010 highly modified two seat teryx and just spent a week riding around in 4 seat teryx hunting and im not overly impressed with it I i dont really care for the engine braking on it its so strong that eveeytime buddy let off the gas it almost stops need to almost be hanging on at all times. I think the 6 speed transmission is going to be a smooth option.

I just thought of a upgrade for pioneer 1000 next year... How about a 999cc diesel turbo charged engine with the six speed transmission :) like a mini duramax diesel quiet,smooth and badass :)

Too heavy there should be plenty of low end grunt with the low range. You can make all that power but you'd never be able to pull THAT much there's just not enough traction 2000lbs with a 1700lb machine is pretty good and I'd wager it'll pull a lot more. Since we've seen the video of the BigRed pulling 6000lbs of hay.


Although if every other vehicle / engine you owned was diesel it'd be nice not to have to deal with gas.

Yeah im anxious to haul some firewood with my pioneer 1000 when it arrives. I'm willing to bet it is gonna be stout to say the least. Diesel would be too heavy but that's just my dreamy mind haha
