Jackal's 2024 Talon 1000X-4 Bolt on Bonanza! 😎

[Plumber32]

That's 1 nice looking talon. 32" tires really help with the slow rides and throttle sensitivity

Nice ride. Looks like something out of StarWars!

So been an interesting 36 hours. There is always perils in being an early adopter of new products.

Despite my best efforts the two fixed panels behind the front doors just didn't quite line up like I thought they should and the front doors closed harder than necessary rubbing the bottom of the aforementioned panels. Also the rear doors didn't quite follow the ROPS contour quite right.

Now all eight panels came pre-assembled with the bulb seals fully attached around the perimeter and rigid door frames. As seen here right out of the boxes:

It then dawned on me the subtle bends in the poly panels rear doors and the fixed panels between the front and rear doors were exactly opposite to what they should be. Surely they weren't assembled backwards, lo and behold they were. So I spent 4 hours disassembling what seemed like 80 4mm bolts, pulling off all the bulb seals and swapping the seals to the opposing panels and putting it all back together.

Viola! it all fit the machine and each other perfectly and the front door binding ceased allowed them to close as expected.

In defense of the workers at @SuperATV who assembled these early hard cab enclosure kits, the panels are covered with the protective blue film that obscures the bends in the poly that make it all form fitting. I spent 6 hours second guessing myself thinking I was just not doing it correctly. Glad to find out for once, it wasn't me.

Now I explain all this in case some other poor bastards get a kit pre-assembled backwards like mine, 4 panels correctly and 4 panels transverse from what they should be.
Thing is you don't know until you get to the last steps of the instructions to see they don't line up.

Example: This picture is top front rear door where it meets the fixed panels. It juts out approximately 1".

After swapping the panels it now lines up and hugs the ROPS as such:

Update to the above post, I shared my finished pictures from below on the FB Talon group of the hard cab enclosure from @SuperATV

In the past week have had three people contact me who purchased the kits and all three were pre-assembled backwards just like mine, in all 4 cases (mine included) it was the two fixed panels between the front and rear doors, and the rear doors themselves which has tons of bolts to remove and re install after swapping. Just an FYI, if you catch it before bolting onto the Talon it's literally half the work.

Thanks for catching that @JACKAL ! We caught it early and fixed the kits and the procedure, but I'm sure we still had a handful slip out the door.

Well after 60 days from order, and 13 days of shipping aingst. My Bosman Designs front winch bumper arrived. I must say, he does outstanding work, impeccable detail, fit, and finish. Mounted right up with the Viper V3 6000 lb. winch. My bolt-on bonanza is complete. Now just need the wife to heal up so we can enjoy it, I don't believe I've ever went 2 months and only put 80 miles on a machine.

Quite the contrast from OEM....

Nah, I'm tapped out LMAO

Thanks to some help from great people I managed to shave $3800 of the list price of those added accessories combined.

Oh, and if my wife sees this, I'll be like Kevin in Home Alone 2

Bosman bumpers are what HONDA should make available! Those Honda tube bumpers are thin crap and cost almost as much.

Shipping is still kinda crappy! Guess Amazon returns are plugging it up now!

Can you imagine how depressing doing so would be?

Very.

Got everything installed that came in. Very happy thus far with how it's turned out. Really impressed with the Wolf box camera rearview mirror setup for $100.

Any info on the tablet mount and rearview setup?

Any info on the tablet mount and rearview setup?

Same as in my Pioneer 1000-5, been running this mount setup for past 20K miles in 4 different SXS.

P1000 - JACKAL's 2024 P1K5D Bolt-On Bonanza

So getting ready for Honda Pioneer Round 4 - Picking up a 2024 Pioneer 1000-5 Deluxe in Black Forest Green on Tuesday 3/12/24 Since getting my first two Pioneers a 2015 P500 & 2016 P1K5D a few months apart in fall of 2015, then going bonkers on them, have learned a lot after having them 5 years...

hondasxs.com

The rearview mirror/camera setup is linked near the beginning, Wolfbox G840S off Amazon. Works very well, they have other facncier pricer models up to 3X the price but I wasn't needing an advanced dashcam, parking monitor, even though this one will do much of the same. Price is right, video quality was great for a $100 camera setup.

Mirror Backup & Dash Cam - This one with the hardwire kit is the way to go, its what I am using:

How did the rear view mount?

How did the rear view mount?

Straps onto any exiting mirror or you can buy the mounting system to use stand alone, just research the information on Amazon.
