P1000m3 Test_Eng 1000-3 EPS Build

[Test_Eng]

Hello Honda SxS Club,

Been drooling over the new Honda Pioneer since the release of the 1000cc and I actually got rid of my Polaris 800XP well before they were even available knowing I was going to have one of these.

I put off the purchase of my P3 EPS waiting for a camo and with all the delays and not being really impressed with the Honda Phantom camo so I said screw it and bought a RED P3 at a well discounted price the day after xmas.

I have a couple pictures of how it is now before it gets tore apart for my build.





The build plan this year:

Roof; already installed
2 piece windshield; sitting in a box ready to install.
Honda 4500 lb winch; sitting in a box ready to install.
Winch mount; sitting in a box ready to install.
Warn Plow and plow; sitting in a box ready to install.
LED head lights and harness; sitting in a box ready to install.
Warn wireless controller; sitting in a box ready to install.
Toggle switches for winch and lights; sitting in a box ready to install.
Honda accessory panel and volt meter; need to by at dealership ASAP
Replace panels with orange or hydro dip red with CAMO; waiting on prices to see what is the best direction.
29" tires and wheels; need to make my mind up on what I really want.

Stay tuned it's going to be a fun build...

@Test_Eng welcome to the club, congratz on the new P1K. Looks like you are off to a good start with accessories. Can't wait to see your progress and eventually final setup. Please share picas as you go along and any rides you take.

That thing is going to be a beast when all that is put on!! Congrats on the new rig!

Now for tires lol. I'm a big tire person when it comes to a sxs or truck. What kind of riding do you do, are there any particular tires you have in mind?

 

[Test_Eng]

Pics of all the parts I have to install





Just waiting for the Orange Plastics and accessory plate/ harness that was ordered yesterday. Hopefully tearing the beast apart this week.

Your set up is gonna be sweet!! I love your shop floor too! Off topic but how has the floor held up or how do you like it??

Thanks for the compliments. I am very happy with the turn out.

The floor has held up great so far. I recondition my garage last year trying to make room for my supercharger install on my Camaro and decided I wanted a clean surface to work from.

The floor is the vented race deck tiles and it keeps everything clean as everything falls through the vents and the floor is easily removed and cleaned in the spring.

I would not recommend the vented tiles if you like to walk bare foot in your garage (Getting a beer from the garage fridge). It's a bit hard on the feet but great for shoes or boots.

Couple pictures:





Some other forums I have been a part of have a member garage thread to share with others. Might need to start a thread if one isn't already out there.

Still waiting on the new plastics to tear into it so I put the plow together as it's the only thing I can do for now.





This plow is way better than the Polaris glacier II. It's heavy and looks really easy to mount.

Looks like I'll be using the tractor to plow this big storm on Friday if the plastics don't show up tomorrow...

Things are not progressing as fast as I would like. Did get all the new side panels but still waiting on the 2 front pieces that are critical to get all the electronics, winch, and led headlights installed.

Orange is going to look awesome!

 

[joeymt33]

I like the orange! Too bad for me though, I've got so much crap installed under he hood that I couldn't change that plastic.

 

[Hometeam]

Orange is one of my favorite colors too!! Wish it would have been available when I bought mine!

 

[Tot]

I'm torn between orange and white. But if I can sell my Commander soon, my dealer has a deal going that LineX won't cost anything extra. So I'm thinking Blue will look good.

 

[Test_Eng]

Light bar tube mounts came in, so I mounted the 2 7" lights and ordered 2 more mounts for the 20" to go on the front bumper.

 

[joeymt33]

Are those Honda lights?

 

[Test_Eng]

Nope, just the tube brackets.

Please put a blue "01" on the doors and a rebel flag on the roof....and add a Dixie horn while you're at it. Then the next group ride could be in Hazard county haha!
