[NTCPrezJB]

Looks like you boys have a pretty nice list going. I will have to check my ride bag.

There might be some 500 specific tools needed, I am not familiar enough with them to make recommendations though.

No stress. I take just in case “stuff” but I should probably really sit down and think about it like the group in here is doing.

The best tool for a p500 is an LE!

Most of the hand tools will cross over to any machine in our line up. 500/700/1000/Talon.

Should confirm axle nut size on yours, as well as tierod if you choose to prep for those events. You may not replace an axle on the trail, but being able to remove it to reduce further damage is always a good thing.

Looking for ideas on a minimalist kit with essentials for day rides. Need a gawd damn cargo trailer to haul all the s*** in this post. Do y'all even ride, or just do engine rebuilds on the trail?

hahaha

You can fit a really good tool kit into a FAT50 ammo can if you trim out all the stuff you don’t need.

a small roll of coated baling wire is essential.and a couple spare fuses.

That’s a good one! I’m still laughing

I didn’t read the entire thread but I’ll throw in a drill and a good EZout to remove the bolts with stripped out heads.

I do have an update for @Cuoutdoors original post.
When I installed my Honda uppers the other day, I needed a 4mm hex as well as a T25/T27/T30 for one bolt. I don't recall the exact Torx size, but it was one of the three.

The goal of this thread is to create a list of tools that are essential for completing trail side repairs on a Honda Pioneer 1000. The 700 and 500 are likely similar. The idea is that if a person is going out on a significant riding trip they need at least a bare minimum set of tools to be able to work on their pioneer should a need arise. This goal has evolved to the creation of additional lists of items/parts that could be added should one choose to do so.


Original post:
I'm curious if anyone has put together a list, or started a list of the actual tools needed for the pioneer. For the sake of a trail kit. Granted you may need tools for other machines out there but I'm thinking if im on a long trip and want to save weight and space what do i need specifically for the Pioneer 1000. For instance I dont want to carry around a 13,16,18 mm socket if there's no part that requires it.

Take a second to vote if you would please!

First time seeing this post, you guys do know you're driving Hondas right!!! In 3000 miles of mostly hard riding, I've needed absolutely NOTHING on the trail! I think the only time I've even took the stock tool kit out, is to help someone else lol.

Exactly what most of this sh** is for, helping out others. But then again, if I do break something, I'd like to fix it and not be seen being towed by a popo. 😁

I went 3000 miles with only a bent tie rod but I have friends that like to test the structural limitations of their machines.

I carry this set from harbor freight in my truck (I bought three of them lol) I haven't needed much more then this. I have a set of wrenches misc pliers and a 3/8 impact. If I can't make it back to the truck, I usually make a run for them.

I bent a tie rod in Moab last year, drove it out that way haha, still made it without struggle on the major obstacles of poison spider, and golden spike
