Built around Honda's atv motorcycle platform, the 2022 Honda TRX520 relies on a 518 cc (31.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 96.0 x 71.5 mm (3.8 x 2.8 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TRX520 measures 318 kg (701 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 924 mm (36.4 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,294 mm (50.9 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.
