Trying to figure out why my 2018 honda pioneer 1000 when put into low gear as soon as i touch the gas pedal to go low gear cluncks in the sub transmission like the gear isnt fully engaged. I tried searching the topic but not really finding anything.

Thanks.

Definitely needs adjusting... It is easy. Just annoying to get a wrench to it. You have to remove the battery to get to it. You need to look at a shop manual though. That’s what I did... If you are a supporting member there is A free one.. It’s kind of hard to explain.

So i made sure that my gear selector is properly adjusted, but still have low gear clunking. I do notice another cable thats attached to the gear selector im guessing thats what goes to the subtransmisson. Can anyone verify that, and maybe thats wat needs adjusting. Thanks.

The other cable goes to your turf mode box...

Mine did this for the first time tonight. It seems like the cable as I wiggled the selector and it seemed ok afterwards. You have me a little nervous if it's a bad electrical issue...

I still havnt brought it in to get fixed yet.... every other gear is fine so they said wont hurt nothing. I did the clutch re teach and it seemed like it was fixed but i went down the road and stopped out it in low gear and start clunking again. Fustrating. I want it fixed so will be callin to get it in shortly. Let me know if you figure anything out. I did post a video on here of it. See if i can find it.

Absolutley! I already sent an email to my dealer and I plan on tearing into the front end to play with the cable tomorrow
