I'm in the same boat as many others... I'm really wanting a Honda sxs like the P-1000.. but I am trying to hold off and see if they will release any info on the sport sxs. There is bound to be someone on here that knows some sort of a timeline on when they will release information on their Honda sport sxs
The big if, based upon historical SXS model announcments is IF a sport oriented model is announced it will likely either be in April or November via the dealer redline. At this time nothing has indicated Honda is ready to let slip the dogs of war on the competition. But we can always hope they decide to do so soon.

They have one of those septic trucks running around here that has a picture of Tigger on the back , looking all goofy and it says ' where's pooh'? Guess you have to have a sense of humor to do that job.

I never like to rain on someone's parade, but...
I found this.

"Honda Power Products is a household name in power tools industry. Backed by a wealth of experience you’re guaranteed a value-for-money purchase – which is why they are a preferred partner of Talon Tools. We have specifically partnered with Honda on their exceptional generator and generator/welder combos."

It's possible that the Honda Talon 1000 is a generator.

Heck, Talon could be a food processor for all we know. But whatever an as yet unannounced sport sxs is called, I sure would like to see it.

looks like the 700
down load the patent document, there has been a lot of confusion when looking and new patents Honda releases?
we have noticed that they are just using the image as a go by so they wont release the new image of the sxs. the image you see has bucket seat set up. if you look through the document the suspension and the frame is completely different from the 700 and 1000. they are using a similar suspension set up to the maverick x3, rzr 1000, and they Yamaha yxz 1000.

well at the end of last year Honda released a patent showing us the rear end and some of the plastics and cage. so what I did was take that patent drawing and the new patent of the suspension and put them together. take a look guys and tell us what you think

Well, ran across this bit of info, not sure if it is April fools or not. Let's hope not, there has been some serious testing with the as yet unannounced sport model to be offered a turbo kit as an "official" accessory developed by a third party and Honda tested and approved. If released can be had through your Honda dealer, sounds far fetched but Honda teamed up with FOX to get the suspension upped for the P1K. I little bit of smudging went in the below pic, don't want the third party getting any flak. Hoping to know the truth on April 18th, guesstimated date for new Redline info on 2018 SxS models.

With long travel 3-link, Fox, and 5point harness bucket seats....

Actually if you can read through the garbledegook, is specifically refers to the one box type suspension as a 5 link setup, ala Maverick X3 - 20" of suspension travel possible on a 64" wide machine :{ )
