  1. 500
Mounted on Camoplast 4S tracks in the winter and on 26 BigHorn 2.0 on ITP 212SS Flat black in the summer.

4500 Pds Warn Winch, EZ-Steer power steering, hard coat tip out windshield, hardtop, rear soft panel, 60 W LED bar and.... a back up camera.... Mirrors did not resist my riding in bushes.... so I went for a rear view camera installed with a toggle switch so I can turn it on while riding to see what's going on behind me...
I do not trail ride, I mostly ride on my property or just pure off road.

I built a massive wood storage box for the rear rack. It protects my gear from the elements when fishing and hunting and from the snow thrown from the tracks in winter time.

A good Friend of mine built a custom canoe rack. I tested it in winter.... we looked weird (2.5 feet of snow, the P5 on tracks with the canoe on top.....) but I needed to test it before my dad took it out to go fishing

The rig is not perfect, the box looks a little weird but it sure meets my needs....

Next step will be to Line-x the box to make it stronger and completely water tight, I may add some lighting at the back for when I load/unload stuff for my cargo box. I may also add a high capacity electrical connector in the box to boost it in cold weather or to help winching me out of difficult situation I sure will put myself in... and I may make soft door by replacing nets by canvas to prevent snow from coming in the cab but I do not want a full enclosure, I would shape them just like the nets.

Love them trax
They are truly amazing. Lots but I mean a LOT of traction and flotation on fluffy snow.
The camoplast's requires very little to no maintenance. I had a set purchased in 2008 for my Rubicon, ran them until January this year with no maintenance whatsoever.

Tx for the comments guys.
I really enjoy this little toy. I can no longer ride ATVs because of major back issues but I can ride the P5 no problem (As long as I remain smart behind the wheel...) That's why I traded my 2011 rubi. I have been a Honda fan since 1984 with my first Big Red.... This is my 7th Honda ATV/UTV and I have never been disappointed... We are now 3 generations of Honda fans.....
If you ever come to riding in Northern Quebec, stop say hi to Louis at Sport Motorise Mont-Laurier... He is the owner and gives an excellent service.
