At the heart of the 2016 Honda TRX500FA7 atv motorcycle, Honda pairs a 475 cc (29 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. 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 TRX500FA7 measures 323 kg (712 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 917 mm (36.1 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,285 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 14.7-liter (3.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
