  1. 1000-3
Sorry, I forgot to use the technical lingo...it's a 100-3, or as I call it, a single bench seat. Used primarily as a farm vehicle to replace Honda Big Red. Driven mostly on sandy land...never been in mud or water over the hubs. Wiring harness was replaced while under factory warranty...since then it has given me little trouble.

With over 10,000 miles is there any particular maintenance beyond routine oil/filter changes I need to be concerned about?

Don't really have any specific pics of vehicle, but I did take this one recently of grandson and hog caught rooting up pasture. It's dark green in color (rear tires replaced a few days ago), and other than that, it is as it came from the factory. Factory top and windshield. In good condition, but not always pristinely clean. As you can see, I view it as more of a work vehicle than sport vehicle. I joined up realizing at some point I may run into something that experience here can help me out with in the mechanical area.

Not sure I am attaching pic correctly, but we will see. Thanks to everyone for the welcome.

good working buggy then 👍
If that's all it does then my guess is you shouldn't have any issues what so ever for a long time. It's when you start messing with them and actually trail ride that some "mods" are recommended.

I would recommend getting you a heat shield from @trigger although I know the 3 seaters are less hot then the 5s but still would be a nice addition.

👍 good luck and welcome again

I would recommend a heat shield
They added the heat shield and an back plate on the transmission for improved oil flow the day I purchased the vehicle. And sorry, it's a 1000-3, not a 100-3. Fingers not as nimble as they used to be, nor is my memory.

Thanks to everyone for your welcomes.

Yeah, those are the Honda fixes, which help but don't come close to eliminating it.
