After searching for a P520 for a few weeks without any luck. I stumbled upon a 2023 Talon 1000R live valve. Wasn't really looking for one but wanted a 2nd machine since most of our rides are just the family and it can be a long walk out some places. I wont claim it was a steal by any means but It was marked down enough to convince me. However since I wasn't looking for a Talon, I'm not even sure where to start having done zero research into the "must haves". I assume skid plates, vent lines, are pretty high on the list. Is the intake pre-filter still needed with the new ones?

And for anyone wondering, it will "JUST" fit on a 7x10 trailer, lol

Sweeeeeet!!!! Nice buggy 👍

Have you checked out @Coeus' AKA The General's "build thread"? 🙄😂 Although it's a R4 he's got a real nice list of needed/wanted accessories. He'll even show you how to stack'm and pile up the boxes in the garage.......😂

As far as the 10-80 pre-filter, yes it is still needed. Some sort of pre-filter or particle separator is needed. Honda has not changed the factor intake location.

Took it out for its maiden trip to Ocala National Forest. Rode ~52 miles. Really liked the push button I-4wd. Super simple, push the button and forget about it.

Not sure we moved fast enough to take advantage of the live valve suspension. The washboard areas were still pretty rough until you hit 25 or so. For anyone whose been to Ocala, 25 is pretty sketchy in most of area.

We kept it in low all day and this thing wants to go! It is super easy to do 20-30mph if your not careful. Took turns driving with the wife and she scares the hell out of me, lol

I believe they are two separate things, the X brace is part of the Factory UTV skid..
Thanks, Guess it only works with the Factory UTV ultimate package. I don't see it available as a separate item.
