Built around Honda's atv motorcycle platform, the 2022 Honda FourTrax Foreman Rubicon 4x4 utilizes a 518 cc (31.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 92.0 x 71.5 mm (3.6 x 2.8 inches).
On the scales, the FourTrax Foreman Rubicon 4x4 measures 317.5 kg (700 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 909 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,295 mm (51 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 14.76-liter (3.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
