Agreed. It was a fine machine yesterday. Nothing has changed except someone is harassing Honda.
Probably a Polaris representative. (That was a joke and is purely rumor)

Honestly. It's just a bunch of legal BS. I would not worry about it. It does not change a thing about your machine.

But some people can't stand the fact that their ice cream is cold and must complain. I mean what else is there to bemoan, no belts to slip, bushings and bearings don't wear out, air filters on Hondas don't typically let dirt past, and the motors seemingly run for an eon with only moderate attention to oil changes. Oh this sticker covers up another sticker that has standards quoted that lawyers determine no longer apply, must burn up the interwebs with demands o disgust. Whew almost fell off my soap box laughing.
/snark off.

Nothing to do with your roll cage. Carry on as normal, Has to do with Center of Gravity, So minimal you would not even know if it did meet the regulation.

Though I agree with the majority of posts here, and yes I'm going to continue to enjoy my goat, I will say this could pose a problem...people bought this machine assuming it did pass these "tests" and now found out they did not...could be a BIG lawsuit for some...I think if some are terribly concerned they should be able to get their money back...not me...

All the people that are unhappy with their honda pioneer 500 I will gladly buy it from you.but with all this lawsuit baloney going around I can only offer half the price of a new one.PS I still own a 1985 honda 3 wheeler,that runs perfect and still reliable after 30 years.I always use it when my newer machines are broke down.Honda was the best in the 80s GOOD FORUM BY THE WAY

Hey! Now there's a thought, maybe I could pick up a P500 cheap because of this non-compliance BS

Told the wife we need upgraded tires and rims to counter this dangerous new information and put leftover tires on old wheeler

She ain't buying it at all......
sounds legit, put some heavy tires on the bottom to counter the weight of the top heavy p5. Professor Heisenberg, did an article in the New England Journal of Medicine confirming this.

I received it too but, my sticker says it's compliant, and I'm not doing their work for them. I was sold a compliant machine and I'll not be putting that sticker on.

Personally, I never read that decal. I didn't know that decal existed. I didn't know they don't comply with something.

Now that we've discussed it.... Let's ride!

I've got another letter from Honda last night with satisfaction questionnaire with 1$ bill inside, is it common practice to pay for surveys?

Does anyone have a recall notice number? I called my local dealer where it was purchased, and they don't know of any recall on the P500. ie I never received a recall in the mail.
