We don't know what has Canada pleased Honda with, but they received the awesome 2008 Honda TRX500PG Canadian Trail Edition Rubicon. This ATV comes with Honda's acclaimed Electric Power Steering and the made-for-Canada suspension calibration. This means easier steering at low speed and on very rough terrain, less kickback and a smoothed out ride regardless of how rough the terrain is.
The 2008 Honda TRX500PG Canadian Trail Edition Rubicon offers a crisp throttle response, while the fully-sealed Hondamatic transmission delivers constant performance even in the wet without the need for constant maintenance. This ATV also comes with two traction modes: D1 for max performance and D2 foe very low traction situations, both with true engine braking for steep gradients.
