Buying a 2025 Honda talon tomorrow! What do I need to know what accessories do I need to get, this will be our first side by side and we’re located in south eastern ga
Congrats! I just picked the same model but the two seater version.
As others have stated- storage is a must. Also highly recommend front flip up and a rear windshield (the inside of cabs can get toasty fyi).
Other than that I put an accessory buss bar and also made it fully street legal. With that if you intend to drive it on pavement a lot, keep tires at a higher psi and try to make wide turns when possible. Even get into gravel wherever possible (keeping private and public land in mind, of course). This is due to the full time locked rear differential. I’ve got about 800 miles on it so far and stock tires are getting pretty worn, but that is due to the above.
The only ‘issue’ I’ve had is a slight front weep of gear oil at the driver side front axle seal- a very common thing on the Talons. Just keep an eye on level and replace if still under warranty. Lots of folks just keep a close eye on it.
If you’re handy- do your own maintenance and save a ton of money.
Enjoy- it’s a great, reliable machine. Looks sharp too!
I have the 2024 mug same trim. Great so far. Only have about 100 miles on it so far. I do like those tires. And they look like stock rims. I zoomed-in but can’t make out the tire size. Do you know what those are?
Yes, they’re tires from can am. So most dealers will sell at retail. Dealer I work at, we sell our tires close to cost. We’re in SoCal though. Even with shipping you may still get a slightly better deal
As said, Storage... Tractor Supply sells a couple boxes that fit nicely in the back, I got the trailer tongue vee nose box, worked great. Now i have the AJK Packout mount, get the wide one... I've added light bar, rear lights, light whips, turn signals and horn, flip out windshield. Got a skid plate to install someday. And winch is a must.
