Built around Honda's atv motorcycle platform, the 2017 Honda FourTrax Rancher 4x4 relies on a 420 cc (25.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 86.5 x 71.5 mm (3.4 x 2.8 inches) with a 9.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FourTrax Rancher 4x4 measures 275.8 kg (608 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 856 mm (33.7 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,255 mm (49.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13.63-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
