At the heart of the 2014 Honda FourTrax Recon atv motorcycle, Honda relies on a 229 cc (14 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 68.5 x 62.2 mm (2.7 x 2.4 inches).
On the scales, the FourTrax Recon measures 196 kg (432 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 792 mm (31.2 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,130 mm (44.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 9.08-liter (2.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
